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

[Kurokikaze]

Not only is it impossible to give unlimited freedom and have it be balanced but even when you do have that freedom you don't do things like put Sleep on an Archer. From a min-max perspective thats really dumb; instead having that class take away another class' crowd control why not give them one (they also have Shadowbind)...?

What I'm trying to say is that even though you have all these choices now you always narrow it down to a select few because they seem to be the best choices that will help you do your role. While I may be imposing these restrictions on that system I am giving you some very valid choices and telling you to choose from there and still giving players enough wiggle room that they need to play around with certain combinations of talents/traits/skills to figure out whats best.

Freedom is an illusion. Just because you could sub whatever job you wanted to on your character doesn't mean you did. Specifically for RNG you chose between WAR, SAM and NIN not BLM/WHM/RDM/etc.

Do you understand what I mean?

As for this Spell Archer thats something I saw in the intro movie and thought would be cool for Battle Regimens but like a skillchain. With new visuals for the combined attack between a RNG's WS and BLM's fire nuke. Higher levels of it too that use higher level weapon skills and spells. Problem with that is they need to seriously rework Battle Regimens - not because of the idea but because its fundamentally clunky, hard to execute, and overall fairly pointless aside of a few things.
