They're trying to fluff up the Lodestone so that it seems like there's a lot more info to share than there actually is. The facts in this could probably be summed up in a few bullet points.

- Jobs unlock their own "new" skills and lock out skills from classes not related to the job
- Jobs level with the class they are attached to
- Jobs are for party play
- You must complete a quest to unlock a job
- Paladin, Monk, Dragoon, Bard, White Mage, and Black Mage are the 6 jobs they have slated for release right now (names subject to change)

Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it isn't out there.

linking isnt being removed, aspect isnt being changed at all
so add back in 2k sp for aspect, you still get 7k before linking

---

I never said linking was being removed but it is being reduced. Again like I said until you or I or anyone knows the exact amount of the redux - it's all speculation and I'm going to hold my speculation that we will be getting less.

And you want me to be patient after 9 months? I would say i've been more than patient, but i'm not going to try and reason with a child like you. At least i'm assuming you're a child, typing in caps isn't something a rational adult does.

The game has paid for itself and more already. If you can't be patient then get off the forums and go to another game instead of sitting here like a nerd complaining about a game you don't even like.

i know we will be getting less

but the entire point of this change wasnt to nerf leves
it was to promote completion of them instead of failing them

And that's enough information for you?

Until it's released, yes.

I'm a bit concerned about leves being changes to be focussed on solo play. As boring as leves are, they're still more fun than raptor grinding.

Vedis stop sprinkling logical conjecture all over the place. The answer is clearly "Derp Derp, I gets less XP, this game sucks, derp derp".

If i wasn't bored at work and was at home, i would be playing a game. But reading/posting on here is one of the best forms of entertainment i can get at work.

I don't like the game, this is true. Though like everyone else, i see potential and i'm hopeful. Though really that hope dies off a little bit every day.
