I'm worried Square-Enyx are moving away from the armoury system, and Heavensward's new jobs not having classes is the second hint of that (Rogue's cross-classes being available to no jobs was the first sign).

I have recently started dabbling a lot with Marauder instead of Warrior, and I enjoy what it brings to my groups. I worry that comes Heavenswards, the three new jobs might not even HAVE cross-class skills for any other job, let alone cross-class skills available to the base classes.

I suppose when I read how people dislike having to level other classes to get "core" abilities (swiftcast, provoke, etc.), Square might be doing the general player a favour. I, for one, miss the more open-ended aspect of 1.0, that has progressively disappeared since 1.21.
