    the only difference is now you don't have to level the class you don't want to play anymore(MCH) merely to keep you retainer on level.

    I understand the issues with changing a Miner to a combat class, but I don't see how swapping combat classes hurts anything at all.
    ... I kind of meant class changes in general, not necessarily in between DoW/DoM retainers.

    But no problem, we can work with this as well - one of my FC mates mains bard, and had one retainer that was battle class that WAS NOT bard. What did he do, before SB was released? Change its class to bard, and relevel it, because chances are it's the one battle job he's gonna level in a long time.

    Now, his proggress with the old class was completely erased - if, come a new expansion, he decides he wants to main something else, he's gonna have to level it ALL OVER AGAIN instead of simply changing retainer classes.

    This is (obviously) more noticeable when changing from battle to gatherer classes, but in my initial post I was referring more to the principle itsef than the specific classes, lmao.

    It's not NEEDLESSLY complex, all you have to do is send the damn things out on ventures every hour or so, or leave them out overnight while you go out on your merry way.

    Tedious for no reason?? While leveling my retainers I can gather every mat I could possibly need to level my crafter/gatherer classes, do people really need to have access to all these mats if they can't be arsed to all but spend some time and ventures in order to level their retainers?
