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

All the monks in Knights of the Crystal (FF for Facebook basically, done by SE.) have swords >.>

Exactly. Just give people freedom. It's not going to end the world.

No it won't end the world, but the freedom you want probably won't happen.

I didn't say I wanted it, I just said there's no point in limitations.

The point would be the separation of classes. Making them unique.

Classes are already unique. The Job System isn't being implemented to fix Classes. Its being implemented to increase player Nostalgia and to set defined Roles for players to follow should they chose. Roles don't define the weapon you use, just the tasks you perform in combat. Your a white mage, so you heal, Doesn't matter what weapon you equip your going to heal.

I know several members of the forum would disagree with your first sentence, but that's a completely different topic.

Player nostalgia is a side-effect.

I understand what you mean by roles and you're right. I had to heal a party as a gladiator and was able to. I was a healer for a short time, but I was not a white mage. You're adding words into the mix.

Class - Job - Role

Class = Weapon
Job = Role

Class = Weapon
Job = Hat

same thing :P FF: 4 Heroes of Light used the Hats to depict the Jobs. worked great actually.

They gave us freedom. Look at the piece of shit that came out of it: the current Armory System.

Yeah... classes are so unique that we've been having this discussion for months..

You mean the one item 99% of the Press praised while lambasting the rest of the game for its inferiorness? Yup.

As has already been stated. The Job system is going to restrict you to your job for your role in combat and the skills you can equip. It has no reason to restrict your weapon at that point.

We disagree. I think that a Job will be locked onto a Class.
