    Curious Question for Classless New Jobs

    So I cant find any info on it, maybe I missed it, But is there any news on if the Three new Jobs will have Cross class abilities? Since this is our First job with No class attached to it, I'm curious how they'll handle that, my personal theory is they'll either;

    A) Just give them about 5 more actions then the other jobs all together,
    or
    B) Give them 2 "Sub Classes" to access their side abilities, but not require them to unlock the job?

    I'm not 100% Sure how this'll work, curious on peoples insights. Or if it has been confirmed by SE in any way id love a Link or Quote cause I can't find diddly :x

    There is no information right now. They're keeping quiet so far.

    However, I'm betting they'll be like Classes, but called Jobs anyway, with standard abilities at the same levels as a class plus additional abilities unlocked by quests. Unless they plan on having two different levelling paths depending on whether you're raising a pre-expansion class, the new jobs will probably be very similar to the current class/job combos, including cross-class skill slots (ie: 5 total that can be filled with specific abilities from two other classes).

    A part of me still expects a quest at 30 that requires you to train in another class to "prepare for the next stage of training " either that or require a certain class levelled befor it can be tried.

    I agree with both of these.

    The fact that they're being so secretive about it indicates to me that something's changing. There will be some new system that these Jobs adhere to, and in a future patch, possibly even as far as the next expansion, we'll see all classes/jobs changed to match the new system. I cannot even begin to speculate what that might mean, how it might work, or how it'll change the game as we know it.
