Idea: Class split idea for all jobs

Forgot to read the rest of the post...You either have to add the 2nd job to the weapons already in use or you have to create a separate set of weapon types just for that job, which is a hassle.

It doesn't matter if the toolkit is designed, what matters is the upkeep and balancing act of multiple jobs, which again they don't like to do. Gear and weapons do matter, as they have to update older weapons/armor so the 2nd job can use it or create a new weapon for every so many levels after the initial level. It's all about coding and upkeep, the minute you start having to balance multiple jobs branched off it becomes a lot more of a hassle and one way or another more jobs will be left out of raids/pvp, which already happens but to a lesser degree.
