Symbol Change Mall Item

Not sure if I 100% like the idea but I thought it would be worth mentioning and people can vote if they like it or not.

Make a new mall item that resets your Symbol/title. Say I picked Lord Knight when I get D1 but I don't really like Lord Knight, I'd use the symbol change item and get to pick my dual class/symbol again. When this item is used, the symbol will be reset to G0 as well (the char will not have a symbol even if the char had G4 of the previous symbol).

Pro:
-new players that mess up or aren't aware of symbol effects get a change to amend for their mistakes without remaking the char
-priests who may not be able to get their symbol/D1 spell for months because of the cyc skin requirement can first choose Avenger and get the g1 symbol to use the d1 spell then change to another, more useful class later on. Also priests will be able to get D2 spell as Avenger for wings to tank the cyc to get their symbols easier
-another source of revenue for the GMs
-allows players to try out different builds/symbols without needing to remake the char

Con:
-changing classes would confuse people?

Not for this idea. You make choices to decide what your going to be in the end. If you screw up its your own fault for not asking questions. This is like Marrowind and oblivion. One is a hardcore game ones a carebear cookie cutter dream land.

whao i think i gonna be smart and go vigilante to get super easy lvling and then go corsair when im im finished lvling for super nice pk,

whao i think im gonna be smart and go desperado for the force symbol and nice lvling, and then switch to Conqueror later cause they have the same skins anyways, and im just gonna need to buy a mall item

same can be apllied to wizards,

and priests and warriors for tanking.

i 100% disagree with this suggestion

Then you waste 20 cyc skins, 20 mm, 20 klattu, 20 gazers to make the change. To get the vigi symbol in the first place you'll need those 80 items. Then you need to get 20 db + the other items to get corsair symbol. Same thing applies to switching from desperado to conqueror. You need to get the get the 20 cyc skins, 20 mm, 20 klattu, 20 gazers all over again. If you're willing to go through that much trouble, I don't see the problem.

+ 1. only hard thing might be switching from a cyc symbol to another one. But gazer / klattu / mana metal all easy to get later on.
