Are they getting rid of the job system?

[Shougun]

you think a Carbuncle summoner is going to progress into Blue Mage or Red Mage?

Without much thought here is an example.. Time Mage.

When applying DoT spells you can cast accelerate on the enemy to make the DoT's applied tick faster and beneficial buffs fall off faster. Arcanist does follow route of a kind of elementless magic, or at least from what I "get" from its title.

Perhaps Arcanist gets a spell that causes his next one to spread like a disease (spreading arcane magic) - use this with your haste spell. Casting stop on an ally stops all negative DoT's all damage stopped is added as mana..

I'm sure you could make a Arcanist -> Time Mage work (also books as a weapon fits nicely).

Hmm, maybe not one of those two but who knows? Blue Mage does have a weird attachment to what Arcanist is the first pet/monster class and Blue Mages are know for the use of monster abilities. Red Mages where known cripplers and light buffers in XI which attached to the said link of Archanist being a DoT inflicter. I'd also add that Beastmaster would also be a fair job attachment to the class as it's well know as a pet/monster class.

As for your disdain of the armory and job system; would you explain why you dislike it so without throwing your negativity into it. I'd love to know why you hate the system when clearly everyone here doesn't. Especially when you said almost everyone hates the system. If you are unable to explain intelligibly without bashing, you sir ClausL will have become maybe the greatest troll in our FFXIV forums.

Good Day sir.

How can you DISlike the job system? Its one of the unique experience that you can find only in FFXIV, I love it and its really useful and comftable

I'm talking about the class -> job progression, not the ability to switch between classes etc, to be clear

they should combine classes and jobs into one thing

[shane239]

I'll say it again. Jobs do not have the versatility that classes do but are alot more specified. Example. Try solo something kinda hard with BLM and you go bye bye. Try solo something with THM and you should get victory fanfare. That is how they are set up.

Jobs are there for party play. Classes if you don't want to play with people

System worked well in 1.x. Will be interesting to see it with the job changes coming in 2.0!

I think this is Rokien's replacement, soon enough people will just ignore it's threads and posts and BL it.

Lol.. Rokien..

I got banned before he did and I wasn't even trolling

ugh...ok ok...classes are the base where most skills come from, Jobs are add on's to classes adding stat boost and Job based Skills...In the end Jobs and classes are the same thing, so what the hell is the problem? Is it the Job quest to get Skills? Must all skills be handed to you for you to be happy? Is it wrong for you have to quest them to get them?

I think you're wrong.

Having both separate allows for the player to be able to customixe their character more, and prevents job acquisition from being a 5 minute achievement.

lol @ hiding behind needing to "PM" links.

If you have a legit source, lets see it, if not, please gtfo. Reddit etc are all public forums, so there's no need to hide links in a PM.

Don't try to equate your opinion to something grandeur. If your friends are really confused by the simple system, then they don't need to be playing this game. It's pretty straightforward.

Sick of you shatting up the forums with your dumb whiney topics that have already been beaten to death.

NUFF SAID....

[elreed]

@Nix & Vilhelm, you posted "ITS NOT GETTING CHANGED"(which is honestly a big assumption by you)

what I WANTED to know was what are your personal opinions on it? Like it, don't like it? think it's good? think it will confuse people etc.?

I think you're looking for someone to talk hahahaha, whats the difference if I like it, do you like it? that's more important, if you don't, well don't play it, if you do well that's awesome, go play it....
