3. Level Samurai to 45 for all those abilities then TRASH it.
4. Level Warrior to 45 for Warcry, Provoke, etc. then TRASH it.

Now I have the most over powered melee class in the game (at the moment) combined with every single ability that makes every other class unique, thus making all other classes pointless to level up any further. Now I can heal myself for 400-600HP along with Raise, and never miss (Zanshin) while spamming weapon skills as much as my stamina will let me; combined with every single class attack buff and accuracy buff further enhancing my OVERPOWERED SLUG SHOT damage per arrow on the initial burst in which I can Store TP ASAP thus giving me around 1.5-3k TP allowing me to toss out 2-6 weapon skills in a row. Rinse and Repeat in a matter of seconds.
In FF14 there is no point in taking one specific class to lvl cap as it is pointless and useless when you can have all of its GOOD abilities on a better class.

FF11 sub job system just enhanced your Main class in which each class had a specific use in which you can not function w/o every class in a basic party. All you are taking from most classes in 11 are a couple of job abilities to enhance attack and accuracy.
