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

I'm trolling, obviously I wouldnt believe in something as utterly as what I posted in that last post lol...


I just think the way you see it is flawed... I dont think it will be "Archer unlocks Ranger" or "Marauder unlocks Dark Knight", because the whole entire "Archer" or "Marauder" name, will simply be re-dubbed as "Ranger" and "Dark Knight" and the re-invented around.

Know what I'm saying?... they are going to get rid of these random "tried to be super unique and abandon FF Traditions without thinking they are important" class names, and go back to traditional staple class names.

Correct me if I'm wrong and I missed a certain statement or source which said otherwise, but as far as I can see it, they are (and should) just ditch the old class names, and take on the traditional job/class names, and just revolutionize the skill sets they should have for more of a traditional class feel.

THAT is what they will do... if they want this game to have a chance to lift off the ground still.

Actually they said multiple times they are not changing the Class Names as they are supposed to signify the weapon. Ie Gladiator = Sword + User in latin (Sword User is the Japanese name for Gladiator, its not some special name it just means Sword User) The Job system is being implemented Ontop of the Armoury System to give us Roles (Not Weapons) which are defined by special skills only the jobs get.

Jobs and Classes are two different things and not synonymous.
