id like to see cross class skills removed/changed for next expansion

You want someone to polish the suggestion, I did. That's why I'm so bleedin' confused here...

I think you added the last paragraph in your edit, and I had posted before that. The last paragraph I like. I wouldn't mind SCH getting their own type of Protect where they can shield in maybe a different fashion for the 30 mins, but at the same time, the idea of having people level different classes for certain actions is in SE's interest. a) played time b) getting to explore the game

Removing the cross-class actions and implementing perhaps 5 new job-unique actions instead in the new expansion (like we got in HW) would take development, testing, and balancing. It would take time and effort. So in the end it's up to the dev team, not us. Interesting suggestion nonetheless. And still a bloody shame people can't cope with 3 action bars. I just get defensive about FFXIV because I have seen what has happened to good games exactly due to people wanting it to be easier and faster..

I posted that entire thing last night. You quoted it today. Water under the bridge though, lets forget it.

Like I said, the quest to unlock these new skills can require classes leveled in the same fashion unlocking Protect for Scholar already works. Arguably better. You only need Lv8 Conjurer to get Protect for all your healers. I'd suggest the quests that replace cross-class skills require you to complete the class quests completely (so Lv30 required). You'd take your Scholar trainer NPC, and go to the Conjurer guild to borrow their lore (which we essentially already do with cross-class skills) and build something entirely unique from it.

It would take time and effort. So in the end it's up to the dev team, not us.

Of course, but these forums are for feedback, and my feedback can be summed up as; "Cross-class skills are kinda stupid, here's a better alternative".
