Scholar and Summoner shared attributes needs fixed!

[Naberrie]

When pugilist gets, hypothetically, let's just say "black belt" for a job, their choices: NONE. Go for STR for monk, and STR for black belt.

Scholar and Summoner are getting gimped. Pugilist and Black Belt wont. This is intentional for you guys and you don't see a problem. Please.

Not necessarily. Let's say they add Dancer and give it hand to hand, basing it off PGL. Now say that DNC needs INT to for its skills because it's dealing debuffs. Now you have to decide to go STR or INT.

Or they add Thief and give it dagger. Say it needs STR. But since it uses dagger it's based off GLD and you've dumped all your points into VIT. Do you gimp your GLD to play THF?

At some point every class will have to deal with it. I suggest stockpiling Keeper's Hymns now.

I don't deny that other jobs will have to deal with it. That's not the point.

This is where you're making the assumption that I already mentioned. You are assuming that EVERY class will have this problem. Not necessarily, and I already showed the black belt example.

The point is that, in the case of a job that shares the points, they will not be gimped in the same way that people say sch/smn deserve to be gimped, or that other hypothetical jobs will be gimped.

When you tell people to stockpile hymns, you are basically saying to grind a whoooooole lot. And with the frequency that people change jobs in this game, as they were designed to frequently change jobs, hymns are a poor solution that only exist to extend grind, and nobody can grind enough to keep pace with how often they switch jobs.
