[Suggestion] Job mounts!

[MrKusakabe]

Anything that stops the washing-out of the professions we have is appreciated.
This is an excellent idea, really! When I read "[Request]", I thought it's Theodric's spam again, but then I saw it's not him and voilá, a quality suggestion thread!


EDIT:

[...]but for dps... nope. [...] DPS-players are a dime a dozen already, theres no need to add extra motivation to play those jobs.[...]

Yes, I think actually DPS deserve it first for equality, and second, as you should know: DPS are the ones that suffer the most. Last time I was in the outdoor Castrum Run (as Scholar) and there were two newbies and the "New player" message. Tank left, healer left. Other tank left. I left, then, too. The rest: 4 doomed DPS. They waited "> 30 minutes" just to wait another ">30 minutes" because of selfish and pampered Healers and Tanks. And DPS are also the ones that don't get the "auto commendation" either. We need to stop that really. Without the damage, the tanks and healer die as well, so talking down damage dealers is really a bad mindset.

You completly missed my point - those long dps-queues are exactly the reason that people need an incentive to play a tank or healer over a dps-job. Those long queues exist because so many people are already playing dps and so little are playing tanks and healers, which is why there is a carot in place to get people to play jobs that might not be their first choice.
I'm sorry if I came off as "talking down damage dealers", which wasnt my intention. I merely tried to explain why there doesnt need to be extra incentive for people to pick those jobs over tanks/healers: The majority of people is already doing that. If you dont like waiting 30+ minutes for your dps-queue to pop, its in your best intrest that tanks and healers get special rewards - instead of adding incentives for people to pick a dps-job.
