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

Sorry to intrude, but how does how I choose to play and develop my character in any way ruin your gaming experience?

Also, I am sure in the early days of FFXI the first RDM/DRK or WHM/SMN might have been considered "gimped". However they, and many other non-intuitive job combination have proven to be very effective in many aspects of both party and solo gameplay.

We ask that we keep the same freedom of experimentation that we had in FFXI in FFXIV. Taking that freedom of experimentation away would be somewhat of a step backwards in many players opinion.

Quoted in the first post.

But to be honest Sorel this whole topic now feels just like the debate on Missing Genders.

Its One Side who wants the freedom. Vs One side who isn't impacted by said freedom and wants to restrict players from that freedom for their own selfish reasons.

Sorry, if you come to a party with the wrong job combination, horrible gear, none of the necessary spells and no idea how to play your job, you're ruining my gaming experience. Example: PLD with a lance lol..

I have shown how a Paladin with a Lance in FFXI can be a great tank. Especially on Birds. Its the most popular choice. Hell you don't even need /War if you do it, you can just use /sam and use saigan and third eye.

Just because you don't like a choice for some preconceived notion doesn't mean we shouldn't be able to use it. If we do use it and it doesn't work obviously we wont use it anymore. Thats the whole point of experimentation.
