All classes (Monk, Warrior, etc.) within P,F and N are of the same Epic.

Classes in one Epic can not have as a secondary class classes of another Epic.

So, let's say Chapter 4 comes around. It's the first campaign of a new Epic. Chapter 4 introduces new classes for a new Epic. By way of example we'll call them the Arsonist and the Yo-Yo Champion. Arsonists can have Yo-Yo Champion as a secondary. Yo-Yo Champion can have Arsonist as a secondary. But you will never see a Monk/Yo-Yo Champion (or a Yo-Yo Champion/Monk). If Chapter 5 is made, and it introduces new professions (again, by way of example, Newtonian Physicist and Girl Scout) you could make a Girl Scout/Yo-Yo Champion or a Newtonian Physicist/Arsonist, but not an Arsonist/Ranger or Girl Scout/Mesmer.

This would keep skill combinations from multiple classes from becoming degenerate due to sheer volume ... it's much easier to balance skills when the number of class combinations is limited.

Of course, with the power to fix the game via update at any time, A-net could do whatever it wants w/o doing any permanent damage. So new classes/skills aren't the greatest threat to game stability.

Besides, the core professions will ALWAYS be available, thats why they are CORE professions

A few more ideas just popped into my head.

1.Choose your own adventure type quests/gameplay
-Imagine being able to choose between multiple quests in the same area, but once you accept one quest, you can't accept others
-Imagine this quest(early on in the game) accidentally taking you to a city in a random lvl 20 area(not an armor city/gates are locked), and having to do a random or obscure quest in order to get back to the previous area you were in.(Of course you wouldn't be able to warp back to the lvl 20 area once done with the quest)

2.Multiple choice questions and answers for quests including consequences(Think KOTOR).
-This has only been done 4-5 times in guild wars but needs to be done more. For example, Officer Chitaro(Either red tape, or imperial assistance) and Scavangers in Ascalon. The only problem is, they still give you the same rewards and don't change the game nor show any consequences.

3.Quests that are more like the double dog dare one including not having a green arrow to guide you.

4.Removing Exclamation marks from NPCs, so that any random NPC could possibly give you a quest.
-This would interest people more in lore and actual exploration and NPC communication
-Could possibly be random money earning quests, in order to keep people's interests after reaching level 20

5.More or Full-game profession only quests.
-They were interesting because it was something only a certain profession could do. This quickly diminished when a person left yaks bend and moved on to kryta. Even moreso with Factions and Nightfall.

6.Jobs
-Purely for money earning
-Doesn't necesarily have to be being good at a certain craft, can be mercenary work, quick jobs, etc
