I don't see which class would get bard, unless jobs are not locked to a single class. I forget his name but the hyur from uldah dressed in black and white is a blade weilding bard..
Nothing else really fits Bard at the moment, so we're either getting a new class, they're following other MMOs and making Archer > Bard, or they're going to do something weird like MRD > Bard.
EDIT: Thancred is a Bard, but he throws knives like a NIN would and that's all he does...so...he was using Bard as in he writes/sings and not as in that's his Job/Class.
I think is a really good idea. I have to say the class system is cool... But too simple to perform custom playsatiles. Is only a few playsatyles u can reach whit class system: melee whit mage. And mages whit... Second wind.
This will be good as job and subjobs sytrm in FFXI. Lettg you to decide play as a PLD whit diferent types of weapon, which means duferent strategys and subabilitys.
And i will have no problem uf there will be some tipes of restrictions. Like if you want be PLD only can use weapons of slashing type. Or ranger use ranged weapons. Or monk use only blunt type weapons. Thats my think
Btw. Mrayby abolishin physycal and instead adding job level?
OMG. That's will be fun
I agree.
I see it being something like this..
RESTRICTED TO MELEE CLASSES.
Warrior. Dragon Knight. Paladin. Monk. Etc.
RESTRICTED TO RANGED CLASSES.
Corsair. Bard. Ranger. Etc.
RESTRICTED TO MAGIC CLASSES.
White Mage. Black Mage. Etc.
Then certain jobs would have special conditions...
Red Mage - Can use Magic classes and Gladiator.
Samurai - Can use Melee classes and Archer.
Oracle - Can use Magic classes and Enforcer.
Blue Mage - Can use Melee Classes and Musketeer.
This would be ideal in my book, and I think would please everyone.
