Thread: Specialist System in 3.0

ok so after waching the pax east ffxiv 3.0 panel i got realy worried.
one of the great things in the game is being able to provide and make everything by myself. the desynthesis system made me worried and im not a fan not being able to have them all but at least rewards are same acros the board (maybe asaid of CUL)
But this specialist system that they brieflie mentioned for DoH realy makes me worried of simply not being able to craft everything i want and being forced to chose between cretain categories for crafters.

What do you guys think?
@devs are my fears correct of not having acces to certain crafts if i chose one specialisation or the other

Want to know it too.

If you already played crafting in FF XI, then you should already see this coming. ^^;

What does specialization in FF XI do? I'm quite curious

i did not play XO so i wouldnt know also this is not XI this is XIV it doesnt mean they will use same systems as they used in XI

iirc, all craft/gather jobs can go up to level 60, then you must choose one and only that one that can go all the way to level 100. That way, it will require multiple ppl specializing on certain craft to help others.

Also, you can change other craft/gather job to go to level 100, but that means you need to reset the previous lvl 100 class back to lvl 60.

It's look like very bad idea ...

tell me whats the point of the aromory system and all that then? one of the selling points of ff is to be able to do everything on one character it all disapears if something like that is implemented.

FF XI has that for over decade and I rarely see players there complaining about it. Maybe we just have to prepare and get used to it? lol

More over, I guess this move might be needed so that ppl can depends on others and help each others. This game has already alot of soloing, kinda beat the purpose of community in MMO I guess. ^^;

Specialization in crafting is something I've been waiting for. Being able to make everything yourself is not a good thing for trade.
