Heya Zavier, I see your point with the AP system, i suppose they don't all have to be purchased. Could be quested or farmed. Some adventure factor, y'know? Just to make it more engaging and rewarding.

Perhaps a middle solution as pointed previously is to have basic spells auto learnt, but some of the more advanced/important spells acquired through different means.
It's just the idea of implementing milestones for the class, you've gone through a quest for a cool spell you really wanted, or hunted down a mob or NM for another and perhaps guild marks for some others. Lots of ideas to go around, just as long as it's not all spoon fed to your list. Game should be more engaging than this.
