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

Slow, Silence, Bind, Ressurect(Raise) are all White Magic and White Mage ish spells. It became the Red Mage speciality only in XI because of the enfeebling specialisation they got.

Hmm you're right there...

Don't forget they're going to balance classes.

Either way, I hope that rep post is inaccurate, took a hit to my faith in this game.

I guess some classes might lose/gain skills in that case. How did it knock your faith down a notch though? Its highly unlikely that the team will just leave all classes/future classes implemented with just one job to branch off to.

EDIT: As for Summoner, whenever thats implemented, i'm sure they'll implement Evoker first.
