Suggestion Allow speccing combat at LS 30 but require lvl 60 LS for mastery

I think it would be nice for those of us who mostly build and don't care so much to spec, to be able to continue gaining combat xp and abilities while defending from mobs. Perhaps a few slightly weakened abilities that would have been available to specced classes could become available. Gills, or become death, with shortened times and longer cool downs of course. Some of the more advanced spells and some of the more advanced combat abilities, again weakened, like jump or wind walk, perhaps summon arrow or ice arrow, megabolt. Lost Soul could become a more versatile all purpose class with a little bit of everything, a jack of all trades master of none so to speak.
In this fashion players could choose at lvl 30 LS to become a combat spec, or to continue advancing as a lost soul and growing stronger. LS could go to 60, 65, or even 90 always growing more powerful and versatile but never becoming quite as good at any one thing as a spec, nor having as much HP or mana.

Interesting concept.

But I think it defeats the purpose of a Lost Soul and the lore behind it. Lost Soul is supposed to be weak in comparison to other classes. Its the path that branches off into all the different specializations therefore it wouldn't make sense to make it a viable class option.

Logic is mastery to spec, not X level to spec.

It would still be always weaker.

Um I wouldn't normally argue coding with a coder but I know this will work with heroes. Just set the strong parent for all combat specs to LS 30. I have done this before on my server and it worked.

Not a bad idea actually, I've never intended it but I dont see a down-side, tbh.
