Morpher Abreviation-Mor
This class would start out perfectly for new players,but get hard enough due to the difficulty of controlling the skills that even experts wouldn't be perfect with it.

This class's skills would be based on the other classes.
Morpher Attributes
Morph(Main)-transforms you into a basic class or a monster.
Warrior-warrior based skills.
Ranger-ranger based skills.
Monk-monk based skills.
Elementalist-elementalist based skills.
Mesmer-mesmer based skills.
Necromancer-necromancer based skills

A Morpher's second class would just enable more skills for that profession, otherwise the class that you transform into would have basic skills.

The weapons for the Morpher would be a magical sword,axe,or hammer and a bow. The bow is used only when you transform into a ranger, the hammer, axe, or sword is used for the warrior, and the magic is used for all the rest.

Skills(Note that all of these except for the Morph Magic would be elite skills.)

Can I morph into a might morphen power ranger? And I better be in a sailor suit when I morph!

all joke aside... Lots people want a morpher/shapeshifter. I think it is a nice attribute to have, adding the surprise in battle, as one must quickly adjust his strategy as he see his foe morph into another form.

But you only give us one line of attribute. Need to rest. Also morph should have a time duration and/or other upkeep and some sort of drawbacks, else... would be just the same as picking the 2nd class. Morpher also need something else (other attributes, primary, armor, energy, etc) in order to blance for their need to morph.

Well, that is my opinion. Keep going with it.. hope to see it more develop.
