Adventurer : the metaclass

Often when you talk to an npc he refers to you as an "adventurer" so why not creat a class above the others (a metaclass) which would reflect our lvl as adventurer?

How would it works?
first of all, it would be a class that you cant rank up or even change to by switching weapon or tools. you would lvl up that class by:

-leveling other classes
-doing quests
-unlocking aetherites
-defeating NM
-etc...

basicaly, everytime you get an entry in your "history" in lodestone.

What would you gain?
when you lvl up your adventurer you would unlock passive skills that could be active for all other classes, regarless of rk, such as:

-higher speed mouvement
-faster anima regeneration
-hability to ride chocobo (faster, better, more colorfull as you keep leveling up)
-agro range toward monsters could also be based on you adventurer's lvl rather than your current rank.
-etc...

what's the point?
this would reflect your involvement toward the game, it would make exploration worthwhile and make the lodestone history somewhat usefull...

I think this could be a cool addition to the game and it could nicely replace the soon-to-be-gone physical lvl.

This is not FreeRealms. If anything PLevel is this, and it's going bye bye.

thank you for the info Asmeret, I dint know this system was in place in FreeRealms (never played that game). I guess it's hard to come with original idea nowadays... never-the-less I cant see why an idea used in FreeRealms makes it automaticaly a bad idea... you care to elaborate please?

I think he cares, yep.

Is like when someone says "Oh! Why they don't implement a Cudgel with the "Return" ability.
Answers: Noooo!!! FFXI-2 NOOO!!! or, THIS IS NOT FFXI-2, or NO! This idea was already used in another game, wich name I don't remember....

etc...

Anyway, I see it as a good idea =)

I think it's a great idea reci. I truly hope the dev team recognizes the need to reward players in a meta kind of way like the current physical level system does.

I think it is a great idea as well.

Great idea!
But "adventurer" sounds so generic...

Let's call it "physical level".

Basically, while you level up other classes, you also gain physical levels that
affect your base stats.

What a revolutionarry idea.

People will love it.

isnt physical level essentially the same as what your talking about?

Yes, except that physical level is on the chopping block.

i would like a ranking up in each city and an achievement window when you check someone so you can see the involvement anyone has, and title system

Well, I understand they are supposed to be implementing our lodestone achievements into an in-game tracker. So we'll have that, anyway.

To which I /happydance because I'm an achievement junkie!

Sure. I'd love a ranking system.

Physical Level really doesn't reward you anything except arbitrary points that don't really do anything. .00025% Increase in damage for 100 Points in STR is not really worth the time.

As many people out there I dont like the actual physical system, because it just doesn't make any sens to me... on the other hand having a metaclass that reflects how much you play is something I would love to keep in the game.

by lvling up your "adventurer" (I admit that's not the classiest name outthere...), you would basicaly gain skill that makes your life easier, but would not have any effect on your stats.

As an experienced adventurer, you know your way around the world hence you go faster, regen faster anima and so on. hl adventure would have an advantage compare to casuals, but this would not be an outragous one.

In my opinion, it just make more sens than the old physical system.
