It honestly feels like Fake Longevity because on one hand, you need some of these skills anyway due to how valuable they are(Swiftcast) and they don't require you to be over halfway to 50 to get. Then there's others that require you to be at 30+ to get a skill that's either somewhat valuable(Invigorate, Quelling Strikes) or just barely so(Eye For an Eye) and then, there is still the fact that a good chunk of Cross Class skills for Jobs is nigh useless anyways so it's mainly worthless.
I honestly do hope that they remove the Cross Class requirements and just give us the skills in our leveling path when we hit their level to get.
