Multiple Classes is a lie

[Keith_Dragoon]

My point was just to say that if the intention is to be able to switch classes, is defeats the purpose to make it impossible to gear multiple jobs with the same end game gear in any reasonable amount of time.
I understand that much of the content now may be able to be completed with full DL and relic weap, but coral tower isn't out yet, how can you say that it will be just as completable with current gear when you haven't seen the content yet? Why would they release additional end game content that didn't add additional challenge to the game? Seems like that argument has some holes in it.



(cont)

Because Crystal Tower was and is intended to be a content bridge between WP/AK and Coil. It is a DF 24 man content that is supposed to be easy but still an interesting trip down memory lane while gearing up for coil. This waa all stated by Yoshi P himself so please kindly point out these holes you speak of.

You have not once added anything meaningful to any discussion or said anything intelligent in all of your 2086 posts. Baffling, really.

Wrong, it would NOT take just as much time on a single character, explained why here.

Don't bother responding to me, just learn the actual problem and form an opinion knowing all the facts about HUGE issue.

yes it would...... DL gear can be warn by more then one class -.- so you would only need to buy one, instead of 2 (if you did a second character)

I finished all of Hoplite, all of the Darklight tanking accessories, and I only had WAR up until that point. I completed my Bravura and then decided I'd finish my PLD.

I realized that when I dinged LV50 PLD that I only had 300 myth tomes to allot to continue progressing my tanks beyond Darklight gear, and that I'd have to pick which Job I wanted to spend tomes on for Relic +1.

So even though I leveled Paladin up - I'm not playing it because I already finished my Bravura and already have some of iL90 gear on my Warrior.

If I had leveled an alternative character as a Paladin - I could farm Myth on PLD, then swap to my other character and farm Myth for my WAR and I'd be able to tank for both of the groups doing Coil in my Free Company. Rather than them having to push someone into a tank role for the sake of one small portion of content which really sucks. We're given the option to level and play all the Jobs and fill all the roles in a party - why then does the game limit this functionality by locking you out of Coil, and making you prioritize which Job you're going to use with a Myth cap? It's counter-intuitive when compared with the rest of the game up that point where the more cross classed abilities and knowledge of other roles benefited you greatly.

Yeah, you're right.

In other MMOs there isn't even as much a gear grind on one character, but trying to gear multiple is quite literally impossible due to the fact that when you are fully geared in Myth gear, a new set of Myth gear will be released.

We have almost a year before 2.2 or 2.3 comes out which is even guessing that SE will be adding Myth gear in addition to turn 6+ Coil gear since they never stated if AF2 is direct drop or a token gear set.

Every 3 months= Patch roughly 7 months till 2.3

This is one of my major gripes with the game. They give you the illusion of being able to play multiple classes, but you really can't.

You can. You just can't get the best gear for all of them in a week.

[BlueMage]

You get another class pigeon holed only into one role and very limited abilities and choices.

In most other MMOs if a class doesnt come with multispecs, it at least has talent choices.

why would square want to make another exact same mmorpg as 100 others out there if you dont like it leave and stop complaining geez

WoW had customizations?

Or a year for that matter, but apparently a year is too fast.

You make it sound like this gear is going to be the only thing worth working toward in a year.
