Will they maintain AP cost for native abilities?

Yeah I thought about that too. If it's by default, I guess it means that you won't be able to select them, so it would have to be all of them.

Now, with class rebalancing, they might remove some abilities and give them to the upcoming jobs. Or they could increase the amount of slots, or automatically equip the higher tier of a given ability.

Or maybe there could be a slot for say, cure, and when you activate that slot, you have a drop down menu (or something more efficient in a fight) for cure1 or 2 or 3, i-e to select which tier of the ability you wish to use.

All good thoughts.

If people are upset because they are losing the imaginary surplus sp, I can just imagine the nerd-rage if you had to select your cure through a sub-menu.
