Kind of sad about all these systems removed.

[DoctorMog]

1.19 we are losing:

Battle Regimens
Physical Levels
The ability to allocate stat points

I for one liked each of those systems and am sad to see them go.

I love this new system.

[Finuve]

physical levels are dumb since they just make low levels unbalanced and made shifting classes a pain (lvled my 5 PGL with my friends 5 archer and I did nothing while he 1 shotted everything, whats the point?)

and with stat allocation, given 6 months everyones per class would be the same once the mathing crowd figures out whats optimal 90%+ of the time

[Rubicon]

Well two of the three will make a comeback: Battle Regimens will return either revamped or turned into Skill Chain/Magic Burst (ok so BR might be gone for good) and the ability to allocate points will return in 1.20. For Rank, I hope they put the term in Grand Companies and make that system like the Rank system for Nation Missions in FFXI.

I really think the new system will be better. Plus it makes the game more interesting since every patch you'll need to figure out completely diff strategies for raids.

Also without battle regimens i think the raids and nm battles will be easier since you won't have to worry about coordinating them. Games that don't need much strategy seem to be more successful these days. Plus, i think they will improve it and add in a much better version of it in a few patches.

You won a cookie

It's only temporary, what we'll be getting in 1.20 or 1.21 is a HUGE tradeoff for what we're losing in 1.19 methinks.

You just listed three systems that were flawed from release. I am glad these are gone.

Here's hoping the "new" systems they implement are fun and not as confusing/clunky/irritating.

Nowt wrong with BR's, problem is with getting people to use a small amount of there brain to use then properly, then they were and hopefully will be again a great tool for those capable of thinking past buttons 1-9.

Guess add these guys to the "FFXIV Memorial" along with the Stamina Bar.
