[Reminder] Classes Are Not Jobs [dev1033]

[Aldarin]

All I am asking for is that they remove the ties of the weapon defining the class, as that is what is holding the system back in this case. Keep weapons for weapon skill's only and keep classes separate, you could still chop and change abilities and skills like you do now within the classes but now you would have the added option of a different attack style too, so you could have a THM that is an effective mage who wields a sword and a PUG who wields a staff and so on.

This is the main issue with the current job system. I think I made this suggestion in another thread, but I'll do it again. Why not simply allow people to indicate what role they are playing, and a secondary role (like Primary DD, secondary Healer). Now when looking at a player you know in a general sense their expected party role.....and it's not tied to the job they are playing.

Simple to use, easy to implement.
