hamlet defense locks jobs

So how are non-Twin Adder DoM/DoW supposed to do caravan escorts? I thought those were locked to company only

I didn't see that mentioned anywhere.

It will not. You're clearly unable to see that if you stacked all WAR, or all BLM, or all MNK, or all BRD on CC or AV you'd fail miserably. Locking class/jobs during content means you are encouraging a balanced group that can handle ANY situation. It also encourages developers to be more creative in future mechanics and fights.

Locking classes/jobs and extending this mechanic to dungeons/instances/primals/etc is a wonderful mechanic that promotes group diversity. The current mechanic of "changing to what is most efficient" is garbage and simply requires everyone to have every job leveled up.

Some jobs should have challenging fights or scenarios that they should have to learn to deal with. That's what makes the job unique in the first place. As it stands now, by not wanting job/class locking on content, you're just dumbing down the content and placing huge and unnecessary barriers for new players who want to play the game. Unfortunately with classism and the current ridiculous job swapping during instanced content, you are telling those new players that they can't engage in any activities until they have the proper jobs/classes leveled up.

Agreed, not a big deal (I'll just do DoL), but a bit disappointing.

I'm all for locking classes in instances/dungeons.
