Please do not lock Jobs to the Weapon Class that unlocks them.

Weapon doesn't necessarily define a play style. The abilities and skills at ones disposal, however, does. A white mage may use a scythe, an axe, a sword, whatever. At its core though it is still a whm, defined by the skills given to it including cures and status removal spells. This applies for any job. No matter the weapon if the skillset is the same the role is, effectively, the same.

That is what I've been trying to say this whole time. The Job is just a Role Specilization it doesn't go away just because you changed weapons

A White Mage using an Axe, Lance, Staff, Fist, Arrow, Etc. It doesn't matter what weapon you equip. White Mage is a HEALER.

As long as I dont see Dragoons running around with daggers. I think they are still trying to model the game closer to offline final fantasy titles instead of being just like XI...so expect to see jobs locked to certain weapon types.

Why? I did DRG/Nin with dual daggers in XI and it was lots of fun.
