    I think this is the last existing problem with FFxiv.

    They're trying to hold onto this class/job system that just doesn't work. Many of us playing, hate it.

    IMO, keep all the current Jobs, remove the Classes and replace the Classes with such Jobs like DNC, SAM, NIN, BLU, THF, SCH, RDM, etc.

    I like you cos you want SCH added, but just wait to see how it works in ARR, for more jobs they can have multiple jobs steam from the same class or require multiple classes to get one job, some examples using your jobs..

    THF: remove daggers from GLA and make a new rogue class for THF.

    DNC: for the daggers could come from Rouge as well, just a different story.

    RDM: new class called fencer.

    SCH: cross between arcanist (for books), CON and THM (need them all 30)

    NIN: also from the rogue class.

    BLU: make a whip class and it comes from that.

    They can add as many jobs as they want just needing a different combinations of classes needing to be leveled and a story that uses all classes involved.

    Yeah but whats the point? They could just delete the classes and have jobs only. It would even make their job easier.

    As I said I expect them to have plans for the class system, 1.xx was built around classes in general, whereas ARR will be build around the hybrid system, if SE wanted to show us what they had been planning all along for the hybrid system it would have required a lot of time consuming changes. See how ARR pans out then ask for a change if its still not working. Complaining about it now, after 1.xx is almost over and they are getting close to the ARR alpha is way too late, if its such a problem why not complain months sooner?

    This..so much this. I have never used a class again since jobs came out and probably never will =X

    They lost me when they started creating class-only weapons and armor.

    /facepalm
    I couldn't agree more. All it does (from my experience) is people try to play the classes where the jobs are much more appropriate in the situation just so they can wear the armor. 9/10 times they don't even have it melded..which makes me further suspect they are just playing the class so they can wear that class specific armor....

    Even when my BF and I duo stuff...we always use jobs.
