Classes & Jobs

Because there might be multiple jobs per class. Imagine Gla -> Paladin/DK/Samurai.

Ok thanks Mariya, that makes things a bit clearer for me.

Not only that but there may also be jobs that require multiple classes. The layered system works fine. Classes = weapon styles, jobs = specializations.

[UmJammerSully]

Because a Job is designed for a specific task (WHM = healer, BLM = nuker) and a class is designed to be mixture and use abilities for other classes.

Class = Solo
Job = Group specific role

On paper maybe, yeah, but all the "party roles" provided by jobs are already right here on our current classes. Conjurer is already a healer, Thaumaturge is already a nuker, we're merely getting an extension of those roles.

I am with OP, just smash classes and jobs together, there's no need for them to be seperate.

Why does everyone think of that as a good thing? It would mean if they do release Dark Knight or Samurai as just a job for Gladiator, all those jobs will be are 5 skills slapped onto the existing Gladiator skills. The differences between Paladin, Dark Knight or Samurai would be pretty minor and the majority of their skills would still be from Gladiator. Wouldn't it just be way more interesting to have entirely new classes?
