Stop complaining, this system is fine, and here is my counter argument:

the jobs now have the class's abilities, which makes sense since they inherit the class's philosophy in fighting; however, having less unique abilities allows for expansion higher than lvl50 cap. Secondly, don't try to make it an ffxi clone, that's why I left, i enjoy the difference in this game. And, I want the armory system to stay in that direction, you ffxi lovers go play ffxi.
