Possible level/story jumps....really?

Not having to level a character and gain exp in a MMORPG is blasphemy.

I remember in 1.0, they said before the game was released that they were going to get rid of levels and progressed in a new manner. Then we get the game and turned out they gave us -two- bars to level up. Physical Level and Class Level, and the EXP was RNG. Good going, old FFXIV team!

The system was pretty interesting since it was more of a rank up system rather then levels. I understood why they wanted to award rank points in the way they did but from what we saw it was pretty abused in the beginning and switching it to after a kill was a better option. I wish they still called them ranks since it was more about the weapons we used.
