Preserve / Sweat of the Brow are abilities right? I don't think they mentioned anything about them in this post, I believe "Traits" and "Abilities" are two things.

Useing all those sexy +10 and +5 stat traits on any of your 18 classes.

The Swap abilities you were able to buy cross jobs- Although quite pointless for the jobs that could buy / wear (DoW got mage stats, while DoM got melee stats lol so we'll see)

The explanations are centered on battle classes; however, the same changes will apply to Disciples of both the Hand and the Land where the setting of actions is concerned.

so we will not see Fire II and ancient spell again on CNJ?

Interesting.

NO COMPLAINTS HERE...CHANGE IS GOOD...CHANGE IS EXPECTED...CHANGE IS EXCITING...<3 CHANGE.

I know when they first announced us being able to obtain our Guildpoint abilities you could buy via guild points was turning to level's I thought (all those people who leveled to 36 just for the rank 50 ability are going to get screwed)

But now seeing this, I'm not sure if this applies, if you open your Actions & Traits menu there is "Actions", "Traits", and finally "Abilities".

All of the crafting abilities such as preserve, hasty hand, assemble, creative urdge etc etc. Are all abilities.

I see nothing in this update about "abilities" specifically- not to say they aren't included. But I wouldn't bet on this till a) we have more info, b) "Abilities" are clarified as being either actions or traits.

Upper tiers of an action (such as Fire II and Fire III) will be abolished in favor of a system wherein potency and MP cost are scaled based on the player’s level.

Are FU**EN kidding me?
So a low level BLM will be casting THE EXACT SAME spell effect as a level 50 only with less damage? how does that make sense? how is that uinique?
please tell me im miss understanding this....

Fire, Fire II will be condensed to one spell, I'm /assuming/ ancient magic such as Flare will be a separate spell.
