Past Life Enhancements Unlocking Hidden Pre's

[Seikojin]

I was thinking about Eldritch Knight the other day and it dawned to me, why not make some Pre's have more than just point and class requirements. Why not have Pre's that require you to have been a particular class with a particular Enhancement set as well.

An example would be a Blackguard. Basically a dark paladin, who in the previous life was a paladin with tier 5 necromancer enhancement. This would, in your next life open a new enhancement tree with abilities that are catered for a multiclassed player who wants paladin and undead.

*despite the obvious that blackguards aren't anything like that in PnP; this is an example to illustrate the idea concept.

The question is now, what do you think those requirements should be and what kinds of new trees would you want?

Or they could use their time to fix some of the current enhancement trees. Or make better capstones.

It's bad enough that they have decided to move along to other things instead of doing either one of the above. There's no reason to start suggesting that the throw more broken/unfinished stuff in the same system. They're good at doing that on their own.

While interesting it suddenly make something optional an requirement. Like that you need a past life of Paladin to unlock a Pre and I am certain that a lot of players don't really enjoy TRing, nor running a Paladin life. Also it makes it more complicated and we had already a lot of people saying the Enhancement, Character creation and ED system together is way to complicated for new players.

Last but not least as the poster before said, it will just lead to another half backed, half borked system that will never finished, like the Pre and Capstones that where promised to be implemented or completed and never did for years.
