Here's the thing, when you switch to Fists of Earth and gain a damage reduction you lose your increased ability to deal damage with Fists of Fire. The end result is you take less damage but the mob you're fighting takes longer to kill which generally results in you being at a similar level of health when you kill your target anyway.

While both stances have their uses there's really little point in using Fists of Earth solo unless you're fighting multiple opponents.

Just switch between the 2 stances. If you see your enemy start a high-damage attack, switch to Fist of Earth and then back to Fist of Fire.

To be fair, I was talking about enemy auto attack damage. Any high damage attack I'd just step out of the range of rather than stance dance.

Some sort of defensive scroll from the GC would be cool. While doing story instance fights, protect and ss saved my bacon many times. ^^

You still lose Protect when you switch jobs.

Say it as many times as you want, they won't listen lol.

This was more my point. Why not just put all cross class skills (or job skills) on scrolls? Out of convenience, of course. Because we all know it wouldn't be game breaking or anything.

Yeah because Protect is known as being a truly gamebreaking spell lol.
