Honest question: If every player/class/job is equal,who is unique? (Gameplay topic)

Foe Requiem begs to differ. So does Disembowel, Dragon Kick, and Storm's Eye. You can't say damage types never matter when plenty of T2 wipes were and are still caused by killing the wrong nodes.

We used to have weapons that were, say, 20% piercing 70% Slashing, 10% Blunt, iirc the Macahuitls, for example were Mostly Blunt and Piercing and Daggers were mostly piercing, while the rest of a Gladiator's arsenal were primarily Slashing.

It's a shame that this was never really utilised. Might have made some situations where one weapon was better than another even if it wasn't a higher i-level. But alas, it's far too complicated for us.

That's kinda cute but it's not a mechanic that I feel meshes well with what this game is aiming for. Keep It Simple Stupid etc. But it's very Dark Souls so I appreciate it conceptually.
