Job Dungeons

[Venat]

Like to see Job Dungeons appear that require say 8 White Mages or 8 Dragoons or Warriors. Each Dungeon has its own boss and reward the job your using it for.
It can be the same dungeon but enemy layout/boss weaknesses/rewards/pathways can change. Its since to see many people take different roles while on the same job, Such as White Mage Melee,Cure,Magic Nuking etc.

Can also be creative like a Melee only chamber & a magic only chamber.
Would also like to see some Job locks while inside the dungeons.

I don't. That will be content a lot people will not experience because it's too restrictive. Plus you have to leave behind your friends that don't have a certain job leveled.

Edit: Cale_Imrik's idea about achievements for completing a dungeon with a single class is much better.

Well it's a good thing I can level any job I want with 1 character.

True, but not everyone wants to level every class. I wouldn't want class specific dungeons, but achievments for doing it with a single class would be nice. Or a step further, have a check at the end of a certain dungeon, if all jobs are the same, a special boss of that job spawns with rare drops for that job.

I'd love melee/magic only chambers with jobs locked in dungeons, but only if there are 1-2 things for the left out jobs to do...Something like the traps in AC from GW2, that way the magic users don't just sit around doing nothing or whacking a mob for tiny amounts of damage in melee chambers and vice versa.

True, but not everyone wants to level every class.

Then they shouldn't feel bad about not participating in a dungeon that would require and reward a job they don't use or have no interest in.

I don't quite see the dilemma here. The system would only be as restrictive as the players restrict themselves. I mean, you're already missing out on ARC quests, gear, and game play if you just play as a PLD. What's the harm of a dungeon that cam change "enemy layout/boss weaknesses/rewards/pathways"?

Oh right, because everyone will level all the classes and jobs--oh wait...

Why would they have to? If you don't want to level a job, why do you want to participate in a dungeon made specifically for it?

because thats wasted resources?

This wouldn't really work unless it was restricted to classes, DRG or MNK dungeon only being able to heal with Second Wind anyone or spending all your gil on hi potions anyone?

It goes against how the game is designed, it's not designed around party combat without healing, and if they made it so you only need Second Wind to heal (for DRG and MNK) it would be way too easy.

I'm not speaking personally, I levelled everything but ARC (couldn't get into it *shrug*), and I agree that people who only level 1 class are limiting themselves..but that's just it..People don't mind limiting themselves, but they hate others limiting them.

It basically comes down to.. "I don't care about the other job's story and gear, so I'll play what I like." and "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN I CANT FIGHT THAT COOL LOOKING BOSS BECAUSE IM NOT A DRG! F*^% YOU SE!"

And people will flood the forums with that crap endlessly.
