Why do that when they can just release the Job system which comes with it's own skill set and Job Specific armor and accompanying quests? I'm guessing you asked this because you don't want to grind, which is cool, but the job system is more than just to give an identity to things.

The main purpose is for party based content and to give some sense of definition -- just adding it to classes won't lead to definition, because for example a conjurer, while is still a healer can also still nuke within it's control of elements -- a White Mage however will have a higher more specified focus on healing which means being a WHM you'll be more in line with healing than a conjurer is which is in line with nuking and healing, especially for solo but for party play you'll wanna be your WHM rather than CNJ.

It's called friendly banter. There wasn't a single post that called for your outburst, and honestly it made them look more grown-up than you.

Note to self: Never group with Zeref Titania. Seems like his nickers are twisted a bit too tight. :rolleyes:

New rule, yout not allowed to post if your sig takes up 10 X the page area as your post does.........silly donkey knights.

Dunno if it has been asked but, Will artifact armour be meldable? Are we going to have to choose between looking cool or having good stats and materia?

Actually, looking back just now about 10/14 of the pages in this thread are actually more or less on topic, with about 4 pages or so off-topic... but I digress. No use in adding to a problem.

Honestly im not too impressed with the "new jobs". All they are is a quest with a fancy class title. No different than what we already have. Kinda boring.

how so? Most of them have abilities or spells that are not in the game, how is that not different?

Even though I find the little bit we already know about jobs to be quite exciting, to each his own I guess. Let's just not forget we've only been made privy to the tip of the iceberg.
