    Future Job Point Categories

    Thought I would post some ideas for future JP categories of what I would like to see for the jobs that mean the most to me in the hopes SE will implement them. Please add and discuss your own as well.

    All jobs: stats+, HP/MP+ (I believe these should be tied to the job and not our gear, hate the swing in HP/MP every time I swap gear)
    RDM: enhancing duration, new enfeeble spells, new enhancing spells, enhancing potency, enfeebling potency
    BRD: song duration, elegy potency (since it looks like we're never going to get massacre elegy), etude potency, magic accuracy songs, Nightingale and Troubadour duration
    MNK: kick attack rate, kick attack damage, probability for Perfect Counter to not be used up after an enemy causes it to go into effect, Formless Strikes/Mantra/Invigorate/Penance duration, Formless Strikes/Mantra/Invigorate/Penance potency
    BLM: conserve MP effect, mana wall duration, dark based -ga/-ja spells

    I'll play:

    BLU: Enhancing Blue Magic Duration, Blue Magic Damage
    WHM: Amnesna, Charmna (Can be on long timers), Elemental Barspells II, or just enhance current barspells with JP.
    THF: Make TH7-13 Not pretty much negligible somehow.
    SAM: Increase Chance of Third Eye not being lost after an attack is absorbed with Seigan up.
    GEO: Entrust - Enhances the duration of the entrusted Indi spell, Regain.
    RNG: Decoy Shot Duration

    The HP/MP could even be like the gifts system we have now. the more JP you spend over the course of all the jobs, the more bonuses that could carry over to others. Very doable.

    This is more job gifts than points but for all jobs I think they should get +10 max category 1&2 merits.

    THF: bully gives killer effects +1% per job point
    NIN: Migiwari threshold reduced 0.5% per job point and maybe a gift that makes Migiwari work twice per casting
    DRG: Percentage of hp for steady wing increased by 2% per job point
    DRK: Absorb Potency +1% and duration +2 per job point

    I also agree with making higher levels of TH more useful, but if they do that they should also make them more reasonable to obtain. I recently merited feint back to 5/5 but still can't manage to get to TH 13.

    nope. SE already said JP are like leveling your job, they are not like merits.

    To be fair, I doubt that we'll ever see this one.

    As Charm turns the player into an enemy our ability to cast any healing magic on them is disabled with the exception of the Cure line as that can also be used as an offensive spell (on undead). (And cures fail to take effect on Charmed players anyway.)

    [edit]
    After reading some on BG Wiki I'm not too sure anymore about the following statement;
    The Charm effect can already be removed by Dispel and Finale, were it not that we usually buff the crap out of our party members already so it's more efficient to just put them to sleep and wait for Charm to wear off on its own.

    I wouldn't say never, they did have plans previously to add Charm removal to WHM, even if it was through the old manifesto. It's not a huge leap to ask for bringing that consideration back.

    Example Adjustments

    Adding a new ability that reduces magic damage taken by party members.
    Adding a new spell that removes Charm from a party member.
