Thread: Is it not time??

I'm aware that there is no chance in hell that this is going to happen in time for the rohan release however.

When Shadows Of Angmar was released back in 2007 and we hit level 50 we had 5 class slots and 2 legendary slots.

When the Mines Of Moria was released back in Novemeber 2008 we were allowed another 2 class slots and 1 additional legendary slot.

2009 We had lothlorien and Siege Of Mirkwood no increase to class slots or legendaries which i can understand, simply due to the fact that we only gained an additional 5 levels so i dont see much point.

Later in 2010 we had access to enedwaith (Still level 65 so i can understand no increase to the slots for the same reason i stated above)

2011 came and we were given Rise of Isengard and got to level 75. We never recieved any additional: Virtue, Class or Legendary slots (Now legendary slots i can still understand - This is basically pointless because we have to have 5 class traits in that trait line)

2012 - 4 years after the Mines of Moria -Riders of Rohan is getting released and to the best of my knowledge where not recieving any of the following. Does nobody else feel that we deserve any of the following:

An additional Virtue slot? perhaps level 75?
An extra class slot? Again perhaps level 75?
Or the big one - Is it not time that we have access to a new legendary skill at level 85?
That is either
A) Based for mounted combat
B) Something not within the 3 different class lines - eg for a mini - Obviously not as powerful as The Lm "Share the Power" but a legendary PoT skill? Or even something for the Harmony stance - On the coda gives say some power as well as the heal? I'm sure there are several suggestions people would want for each class.
C) How about if we don't gain an additional legendary slot - We could gain an improvement to some of the ones that we have - I.E Minstrel fellowships heart adds a small Power over time pulse - On my mini the healing of Felllowships heart is 640-925 every 3 seconds, why not add a power pulse as an improvement - Heals perhaps 100-300 power every 3 seconds for even 15 seconds. Since the power pools of all casters is going to be well beyond 10k id imagine, since im currently at 9.6K without captain buffs.

I quite agree, but who knows, we might indeed receive some more virtue, class and legendary slots.
But this is quite a good idea and the legendary trait idea is well rounded and a good concept. +rep

Changing some traits, especially ones that most of the population doesnt use, would be a good idea, it might shake things up a little.

Simply adding more slots is not, imo. That's powercreep 101. It would only gives you more power. But then, the devs needs to make the game that much "harder", to take into account those new virtues/traits that people would have. Then, with next expansion, people want some more new trait slots, and so on... I'd much rather see a complete revamp of traits (especially legendary ones) than just adding new slots, because new slots don't add anything in the end, but powercreep.

Simple answer: NO, we do not deserve anything like we've earned it by enjoying a great game.

That being said I believe the improvements or versatility in your class is going to come with your horse skills and size. Besides who needs more skills that never get used. Plus we got more bag space and I can live with that.

I'm inclined to agree with you about the over-use of the term "deserve." However, I do think it would show no small amount of consideration on Turbine's part to look at options like those in the OP.

As far as versatility goes... it's two weeks to go and we may not be able to know how our classes will perform in mounted combat without being in the beta-test or until launch.

And Winterwolf, if we were going to get new trait slots, I think Turbine would've advertised that as a selling point, so I'm pretty sure we won't.
