My question is why not Gladiator 50 if you want (If the names stay)? Why should the base job only go to a certain Rank? In XI a lot of people enjoyed being a whm/sub-job. The way you are explaining it this would not be possible and you would not be able to use any of the other jobs abilities at all. While I agree that if you are a R5 Power Ranger you should not be able to use a R50 job ability but you should be able to use the R5 ability of any of the jobs you have actually ranked up. This is why I say instead of scrapping the current system, fix the stats and work with what you have, this will work for your idea as well Kuroki.
