Guess I won't switch to Paladin.(..and hope that jobs don't completely make classes obsolete for party play.)
You will be obsolete because everyone will want DRK for DD.

This is why they need jobs to be interdisciplinary. In other words, they need to make any job accessible from any class. Otherwise the armory system is a pointless, convoluted intermediate and they might as well just scrap it.
