Formula for damage taken?

[MythToken]

This is all assuming they change nothing to the def formula in 3.0.
But even if we double in Def and foresight might get a little edge over rampart for example, it wouldn't necessarily mean foresight is op.

For sure, foresight kinda meh right now, potential to become a decent mitigation effect. Never will be OP.

And yeah the physical damage only, limits its effectiveness, but then again a lot of attacks that appear to be magic damage are indeed physical.
Still this is the major shortcoming of this ability.

I bet dark Knights will get one for magic defense.

That would be a pretty cool way to go with them. They could also make it reflect magic damage up to a certain % of health or, just a flat potency, like a magic vengence.

Too bad it won't be able to be cross classed. Only classes provide abilities right now for cross action compatibility.

[MythToken]

Could change, with expansion.

[melflomil]

I can see it too, cross job actions. I will be very limited though

[Wintersandman]

I doubt there will be a change to the system. Plus it would rework the entire balance of all the existing jobs. Currently every job can only x-class with 2. This is most likely why SE made these classless based jobs. They will rely on the existing pool of abilities.

I doubt the system will not change, every class will need to be rebalanced anyways with new lvl 60 abilities and traits. On top of that the current class/job system is no longer relevant and they have clearly already started moving away from it. I would put my money on at least seeing them redo cross class actions.

You will be once you buy the expansion that is $$$ right there. But I seriously doubt it. There does not need to be a forklift upgrade to the current system.
