No More Classes?

[FranSeara]

[QUOTE=Hiruke;2660534]Classes are essentially useless, and we'd be much better off without them. I'd rather see SCH get their own dps skills that borrow from SMN, and I think many would rather be able to allocate bonus stats differently to SMN and SCH rather than them share a set. There's really very little legitimate reason to use a class once you have the job, and the cons heavily outweight the pros, so what's the benefit of having classes as a system to begin with?


Sorry, I couldnt disagree with you more. Classes are needed, without classes you paint yourself into a corner and then What? At least if you have classes new jobs can branch of of them. ie: Ranger from archer. Samurai from Glad. I could going forever,so lets not throw away ours classes so quick. Just my opinion
ps. I still use my classes, its my choice.

You'll have to explain this. If they removed classes, what exactly would prevent them from just making a Samurai or Ranger?

Consideing the failure of SMN/SCH branching from ACN (can't use both to their max potential at the same time, unable to balance one without imbalancing the other...), I'm pretty sure there won't be any more branching jobs in the near future. Not until the sort things out.

I think the reduction of that item that resets your points from 10000 GC seals to 250 is just for that. When you wanna be a SMN you respec to INT, when you wanna be a SCH, respec to MND. Easy like that. And there's always a possibility of new jobs with the same specs branching from the same class. Like SMN/Necromancer branching from ACN or BRD/Ranger branching from ARC and using DEX as main stat...

see failure #2 to see why it's still not a good idea. Also, see the bunch of threads asking for an upgrade of SMN and the lack of available solutions without making SCH OP in a way or an other
