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

Rank 20 makes no sense, cause you can easily hit that in less than 2h...

Like the idea, but for me it has to be atleast Rank 40+. (Rank 50 would be like the old level 30 FFXI IMO)

It's not about leveling as gladiator to become a paladin, it's about choosing to be a paladin as your gladiator. It can't be an endgame goal, it's a leveling/advancement path.

I know. But Rank 20 is definitly too early. I also would like that to be a real goal and motivation and not something you can do in one day.
I also would only agree to the classical jobs as side things, if they get their own weapons/gear.
A Dark Knight with s small sword and a shield would look somehow realy wrong.

Yourse isn't the only opinion/sugesstion in this thread and so there is the possibility that this comment wasn't addressed to you.
It was a general statement on my point of view. Thats all.

EDIT
@solracht
Well, in my opinion getting a advenced specialisation should be also a motivation. Otherwise (especially considering your opinion that the current classes aren't fun) it would make much more sense to replace them all together.
What is the point if you have to level 2h to get youre specialisation? And if playing a current class is so bad, why bother doing it even to Rank 20
Make it a long term goal or cut it. Thats my opinion.

BTW
I realy do like playing with my Gladiator.

The real goal and motivation is getting your Paladin armor. The real goal and motivation is getting that ultimate paladin skill at the end of the tree.

There are certainly enough goals in this system. Leveling as a class that a lot of people have found uninteresting or boring (our current ones) for weeks will counter any motivation to reach the interesting part, I believe.
