Is there a reason I cant turn on Cleric Stance as a Scholar when the lvl synch put me to 36?

It depends on the order of your additional skills. Put Cleric Stance on the first slot if you want to be able to use it always.

Alternatively, I feel Cleric Stance and Protect should just be freebies for scholar...
It's not such a big deal now but if we end up being able to take skills from astrologian we might have to give up something. -

you will most likely get 2 new slots as well, so no need for special treatment

Problem is that, well, no Job in the game can actually use Rogue skills, besides Ninjas. I suppose Squeenix didn't want to mess with the available cross-class skills for Jobs that existed before Rogue/Ninja was added. :pQuote:

If this trend continues, we'll probably gain one more cross-class ability at level 60.
As Felis has rightfully indicated, your Cleric's Stance is probably on the 4th or 5th slot, thus locking it out when synced to 36. -

This is too annoying. They should level sync the skills and let us be happy. It annoys me that even AV prevents you to use Lustrate or other lv50 skills.

How, exactly, do you think level sync works? It literally reduces your level to match the level range of the content you're doing. Your level does more than dictate how much HP and MP you have, it also determines what skills you can use. It's always worked like that. Lower level, fewer skills. Not even XI let you use higher level skills when synced to a lower level. I agree that the cross-class slot system works a little weird, but it's worked like that since 1.0. High priority skills go in the first slots, low in the last. "But they are all high priority!" The you need to pick the ones you really can't live without.
