Stat Points by Job (SCH/SMN Primary Example)

[IveraIvalice]

It's a dumb limitation. The class system shouldn't even be here, no one uses it anyway, everyone just uses jobs. A huge point of this game is that one character can be all classes/jobs. By splitting smn and sch on one class it's proof that they won't get rid of the class system and just makes it so both those jobs can't be at their full potential if you want to play both.

And it will only get worse as more jobs are added to existing classes. Watch when/if drk becomes attached to gladiator

not true.
in pvp, ppl go as MRD, and GLD, because WAR/PLD, dont have any useful skills for pvp, cause you can't aggro/tank ppl.
also archer.

I agree with that but considering that at least 90% of the game has nothing to do with pvp, it still feels like a dead system. I would have prefered they flushed out the job system to have more customization and variety. In the end I just want to have 30 points to put on my smn and scholar separately. Instead of only really putting to use 15 of them because I very much use both jobs on a regular basis

The classes should have had more neutral stats and allowed a greater variety of skills to cross class. So you could make a GLD with mediocre magic skills if you really wanted to. The jobs would have been more focused. Jobs should not just get +10 to all stats across the board, instead the same number of stat points would be invested more heavily in their primary stats, with much lower cross class stats.
