Heavensward jobs! yay...no base class? wth..

The new jobs simply won't be giving any of their abilities to the existing jobs.

Obviously the new jobs will be able to take cross class skills from existing classes.

A healer without swiftcast? DOA. DPS without damage cooldowns? DOA. Tank withou... you get the drift.

Don't be absurd, please.

There's likely no depth beyond why classes aren't being used anymore other than that the class/job distinction was completely arbitrary. When the only thing that makes your job a job is a crystal you equip... obviously something is off with that *part* of the system.

I don't care what they do. BUT, if everyone continues to be just like everyone else (glamours withstanding) it will get freakin' boooriiing man.

The only real chance this game had of establishing horizontal build progression was with the cross-class system...now they're just going to remove it? The game is already vanilla enough in this regard. It's REALLY time to start letting people create more unique builds. They don't have to be so elaborate you can't even recognize them, but c'mon man. With that said they could do a lot more with the attribute points, traits, materia, or a combination of them.

I don't want a game where: "Hello this is a Mario, this is a Luigi, and this is a Bowser".
I want a little more of "Hello, this is a Marowsergi! HE'S FEARSOME!!"

I know what you mean, I loved 1.0 system, was with lots of flaws but the level of personalization was awesome, I don't think that cross class will disappear, just means that maybe old jobs like the ones we have atm wont be able to grab skills from the new ones because this jobs are already balanced, but new jobs will be able to grab skills from old classes.

That's what sounds logic for me.
