Why not abolish the Class system entirely in favor of Jobs? [@ Devs]

So your solution is going to be beef up damage to the point you can 1-shot every mob? Because otherwise, you will still run into the same problems you are whining about, you will need heals one way or another. The difference is, you have the CHOICE to heal yourself with the Armoury system where you have no choice with the strict archetype system you're advocating. What's more retarded? Advocating a change that does nothing to address your concerns? Or advocating the removal of a system already in place that at least gives people an option? Here's a hint, you're doing both atm.


Uh, please don't go on, but if you do, try "taking some of your own advice."

Um...once again you display a level of arrogance beyond human comprehension. I'm only choosing to post this section of your txt, because it's extremely dull reading the same stupid argument over and over and over again said in a different way, and I don't feel like going through each "assumption" and explaining why you were wrong. Did you even bother reading my suggestion? Maybe you did, but you lack imagination, so you can't see how to "fix" things w/o cure. Are you really so ignorant that you don't think SE is capable of coming up w/ innovative ways to keep classes soloing w/o "one-hitting every mob?" -By the way, that was a really unimaginative idea of the only possible way to survive w/o cures. Have you heard of the ability "Second Wind" by any chance? That's a PGL action. Have you, perhaps heard of MRD, and "Blood Bath?" And then, of course, we have "Speed Surge" and "Life Surge" on LNC; that's another interesting one. Well, LOOKY there -a couple of ways to survive w/o cure and 1-hitting mobs!? And here I thought we mere mortals were not capable of such impossible tasks!

Maybe you only lvl'd one DD, and lvl'd both the mages because you were too dense to understand that there are "other options" (just not as good of ones at this point); or maybe you forgot that they were there. Regardless of the reasons for it, your rant about how everything word uttered from your mouth, manifested on the forums is logical, now, just seems a little ridiculous. I don't know EXACTLY what needs to be done, but just because YOU can "get by" w/ the current system doesn't mean you dismiss other ppl's better ideas. I don't want to *settle. I want to get as close to "perfection" as possible.


Mages capitalize on mp and spells; and melees capitalize on TP and abilities. That's how it should be. SE could lower the recast time on things like Second Wind and Blood Bath, or they could increase the effectiveness of them, or come up w/ some kind of other stuff like "Rejuvenation" (focus your efforts on recovery, and regenerate hp over time) or "Adrenalin Rush" (Access your battle-will and recover health while dealing greater damage to target), or something...I'm just throwing random stuff out there. There's a lot they could do. I like DoW and DoM -I don't like pathetic hybrids. Keep them separate plz. I don't want to always feel like I'm a RDM in XI trying to solo easy prey mobs.
