I love this idea. It would actually make skilling up enjoyable(I love skilling as it is but still an excellent idea.) Also having some PvP in there would be great. Sure we have ballista but you can't TRULY test your skill/gear if you can't do gearswaps without a penalty. I know myself as a paladin(Yes I'm a PLD and I DO shit in Abyssea so there! Of Course I have an LS of openminded people who recognize skill.) I would never want anything like WoW PvP(That game just needs to die! No offense!) I'd love to actually go head to head with some DD's on my PLD just to see how well they could do vs. me.(I've got a Taru BLM with Sick gear who always tries to nuke me dead on my PLD when I get charmed... He never can manage it it with 1 nuke. I told him the day he does enough damage to one shot me I'll give him a Mil Gil XD)

The illustrations are hilarious. I could only have dreams of drawing with that kind of skill. I can draw a blueprint no problem but never something as elaborate as those pictures.

/bow/salute/kneel kingfury That's some impressive work you've come up with. SE should hire you on to the Dev team :P
