My problem with WOW is that it is not deep enough. All the characters have the same role they just execute it differently. A 15 level Rogue can kill a 15 level Warrior in direct melee. Thats to me is Bull. The classes in WOW greatly favor Magic casters, which annoyes me as I like combat.

I prefer DnD rules where every class has a very specific role. Fighters are Frontline tanks but they are weak to magic. Wizards are very powerful but are physically weak and need Fighters for protection, Cleric are decent in both Combat and in Magic but excel in neither. Rogues have skills that no other class has (like Find/Disarm traps and picklocks) but are weak in combat.

The benefits to this system is that all the classes have + and - and it encourages teamwork so that a party can work together.
