[dev1033] Class name changes -> Specialization/Talent Trees Into Classic FF Classes

[solracht]

I guess I did. I apologize for my ignorance. Can you please lay out what I am missing?

Since you quoted my system, I'll reply too. The compromise system doesn't have jobs starting at level 1. It has specs as explained in Kuro's main post.

Two things could happen with things like Raise: either it's removed from conjurer's base line of skills an added to the WHM/RDM/etc trees, or it's left as it is but the WHM/RDM trees boost them.

I'm not against either, but there wouldn't be a level 1 WHM/RDM/BLM casting Raise if you had a rank 50 conjurer, regardless, because at rank 50, after the changes, you'd have enough job/talent points to max out WHM/RDM/BLM right away (assuming job/talent points are assigned simply for ranking up like in other games such as WoW, Rift, etc).

More on this: Something that was being discussed was whether job points would be awarded simply for ranking up the class, or if you would have to do anything else to obtain them.

Some people are against being able to instantly switch to a max-specced DRK after leveling as PLD for your entire Gladiator career, and some are fine with that. I don't care about which approach is taken.

However if you have to do something to gain job points, it can't be too annoying - certainly nothing of the scale of ranking a class to 50.
