With the reveal of the donor perks and many different discussions have been sparked about them. While there are some more popular topics, I want to talk about something that is going to very likely make one of the perks "better".
Class Trials
Class trials would be a feature that allows you to test a class freely before making the choice of one permanently. But why would this matter since you can just make another character?
One of the new perks was Class Unlock Tokens, which to those uninformed unlocks one of the futures "Premium Classes". Since we don't exactly know how this system works for unlocking them, I'm going to go the safe route and assume you just spend the tokens in-game to unlock a single class for all your future characters permanently. This means if there are let's say 7 premium classes, you only need 7 tokens total to unlock all of them permanently.
But then a single question rises, how do I know what the class is like?
Well, obviously you can kind of speculate based on the name. For example, just the name necromancer gives you a good idea of what kind of abilities that class would have. And then you can read about it on the wiki (you should totally check the wiki after reading this) and that would give you a decent idea off what the skills are and what they do, but for most people, including me, it's all about the feel of a class. Now this can be easily solved with a class trial system.
Well, how would this work?
Simply in the character creation menu or class select, you would have the option to try each class, including the premium ones. You would have access to all their abilities and spell trees and some dummies to test the abilities on. You are free to mess around with the spells till you are convinced you like or dislike the class. Then you can just test another class or permanently select which class you liked the best.
And that's it. If you have thoughts comment below.
