I really like the idea of job points, for years I've been wanting a Specialist Class where you can take your favourite job in your own personal favourite direction, to higher and higher levels of specialised proficiency.
Obviously it is still a fairly new system and is open to the "organic development process" in future. However my main problem with Job Points is not the huge amount of "xp" required, or time/grind etc. w/e this doesn't really bother me so much. What I don't like is that you have to attend events on the job you want to get points on. So for example, maybe my LS needs a WHM for job points party, I am happy to be their WHM and I am ok at playing that job for extended lengths of time if my LS requires it, but I don't want divine seal bonuses etc. I want to spend the Job Points on my main jobs in developing them a la Specialist Class in other RPGs.
So I would like to see Job Points untethered, let those Job Points run free across the open fields. Let me use the Job Points I get while being a nice person and playing WHM for my LS, let me use those points on jobs that I actually like. Apart from that, I do really like the whole concept of job points a lot.
