Please do not lock Jobs to the Weapon Class that unlocks them.

[Focant]

I skipped over several pages so I'll comment on the first few.

As I understand it, the job system is meant to be a bit more rigid. They mentioned locking out certain cross class abilities and giving ones unique to that job alone, that on top of ranking up a specific class for even opening them. All of this is supposed to create more specific party roles, a more rigid system. They even mentioned that the current class system is good for solo and casual party play, as it offers a lot of flexibility and variety. The idea of allowing multiple, unrelated weapons to be used on jobs sounds counterintuitive to the purpose of the job system to begin with.

If you do want to play whatever role you want, that sounds like it's the realm of the current class system. Jobs, again as I understand it, are meant to fill specific roles and will be a lot more rigid and defined. Obviously that also includes weapon usage.
