    You are misunderstanding what others are trying to point out as the implication of this. You played all the time on tank, leveled up your ACN with it. Now you are a lvl 50 SMN or SCH and have no idea how to play the class because you were busy tanking gaining EXP. This is a problem. There would be an insane number of high level players entering end game instances with no idea what their buttons do and how to weave them together.

    Just needing to do the class quests every 5 levels is not enough. Developers stated lvls 1-50 are "training" on how to play the job, this would completely undermine their attempts to force people to learn how to play well. Some people still struggle learning when playing the class all the way to 50, but that is another discussion for another thread.

    i get what people are referring too no system is perfect and their is usually down sides to any idea. I feel that the people who play their char from 1-50 and still cant play it would still not understand it if they diverted exp to it. That's why I suggested a exp penalty this way its not automatically a go to option but just another option for people who don't want to sit in queue for 45 minutes or don't have the time to do so. They could even institute a trial with the new system that you have to complete every set amount of levels that are used to teach people the class who take this route. I don't feel any of the dps classes have a huge learning curve even the summoner who I've heard people refer to as the hardest to master.

    I leveled all my jobs to 50, and about half of them I didn't learn anything beyond the basics due to good old FATEs and leves.
