Concerning the retro castle and extended classes.

[azurerogue]

I've seen Soul Linkers, Ranker TKs, and even a few stray SGs play quite well in trans-WoE (and some fairly serious players use them).??Gunslinger will always be a complete novelty class in my mind (even compared to plain Hunter).??Ninja is the one class that would get the real benefit from this suggestion (as Soul Linkers are incredibly useful in WoE - trans or not, and the other taekwon classes can outclass non-trans in DPS potentially - or, worst case, are useful for Flying Side Kick / Warmth).??The best Ninja can do in trans-WoE, as far as I've seen, is Water Escape Technique the precast.??

I don't really care one way or the other.??I don't think trans classes "ruined" the balance of the game because the "balance" in RO has always been endlessly beefing skills/equips/other stuff.??RO's version of "balance" is as follows: Skill A is overpowered, so let's introduce Skill B (which is also overpowered, and unrelated to Skill A and for a different class) and Skill C (which counters Skill A).??We will keep Skill B from being AS overpowered in the future by making it so that with the right (rare) items, you can resist it somehow.??Game fixed!

All that being said, I'd be fine with this. The TKs -especially rankers- might be a bit overpowered there (not many non-trans can get amazing DPS *and* 15k HP). But the rest would probably be fine.
