You had white mage, which a conjuror is sort of like, but not. They had the white magic spells, such as cures, but also banish. They did not have the elemental spells, as they are dark magic. The black mage had black magic spells, elemental spells, enfeebling, and so on. A warrior could not simply borrow another job's abilities/spells without having that other job as the subjob, and then you were limited to half your level. So a 50 warrior with a 30 monk subjob would only have monk abilities up to 25. If the monk was below 25, they'd only have the abilities of what level they were.
good to know that, but as you said, the state atm is very close to being call FFXI-2.Although it is still to early to call it FFXI -2 as we dont know about 1.21 and patch above, at least not until the game goes live
