i am gonna say what this game has in fact a talent system, that talent system is called class/jobs, you aren't x job, your character can be anythyng, oh, you want to heal? go scholar(or other healer), tired of healing and want to do more dmg? change to blm(or other dps), and so on, unlike the majority of other mmos where if you want to play other job you gonna create a diferent character completely, so class/jobs acts as specs in itself
