So what skills can we expect at lvl 60?

What are the odds that some class, say Culinarian, gets a better version of Steady Hand 2 as their lvl 60 skill?

Lets say Steady Hand III, increases success rate by 40%?

Think that could happen? Something to remove some of the incessant RNG from crafting?
Could also see a stronger version of Byregot's, say +30% per IQ stack?

What do you guys hope to see in the lvl 60 skills?

id prefer class advancements for all crafters.. better skills n gear XD

The skills would be in relation to people "catching up" from the i55 era surely as SE have pretty much thrown DoH lore out the window and gone with an aggressive progression structure where RNG wins out over skill. That, and those same skills will be used for the next tier of RNG crafting.

Incessant RNG in crafting isn't that bad. It's the RNG in materia (esp on any 1 slot item) that's horrible. At least you have some measure of control over your crafting RNG, it's not just hit a button and hope your 8% meld doesn't fail (again...)

Anyhow, I think they may want to make Byregot's a core ability instead of 50 CRP. The high end crafting rotation is basically centered around it, seems more appropriate for every DoH to have it by default without needing to waste a cross class slot on it.

Ability to cross class more than 10 skills

Yeah definetly 10+ cross class skills.

Other than that, think it will be a mix of more powerful abilities of the ones already available (like CS -> CS2 or WN -> WN2), but also completely new abilities.

I really hope they do give us also new abilities for more flexible and different rotations

I predict we will get one new skill, and it will not be cross-class but the same skill across all classes: Advanced Synthesis. 200% synthesis rate, 28 CP cost, 90% success rate. So, in other words, a meh skill that is situationally useful at best.

Remember, we're only going up ten levels, and cross-class skills only crop up every 13 or 22 levels. A 10 level increase seems like it's too soon to expect any new cross-class abilities.

As has been noted, though, gaining two new cross-class ability slots will make it worthwhile regardless of what new skills we get!

I'd like to see them go away from the current structure of leveling every class to 50 and cross classing the optimum rotation, effectively making all 8 crafting classes play identically to one another.

Maybe a job system that only lets you cross class with certain crafts, or limit cross class skill number. They'd need to revamp the recipes to not be absurd like they currently are.

I dont see cross skills going away. Id be major ticked off after all the work I put in to get where I am today. Dont see much revamping either. Probably a few new skills, some that all classes get and than a new cross skill. Im really hoping they add some content like more quests maybe some group crafting missions. we'll see :)

u can expect 5 star crafting and the need to have 15 IQ stacks and u need to hit excellent at least 5 times in a row to have a decent chance at HQ. Really......probably something like that xD
