And just so you know. Look down at my card down below this. If you'll notice, I've leveled every job. So far? Boring. The only reason why I like Lancer over the rest right now is because of Speed Surge being a class specific(Really it's weapon specific) trait that really shakes it apart from the others in my opinion.

What needs to happen is that abilities need to be turned into class specific rather than you being able to use it on whatever class you want.

Fact: A Marauder shouldn't have MP to use for Cure, Protect, Shell, etc.

Fact: A Pugilist shouldn't be able to use weaponskill's from another class whose weaponskills base off being slashing or piercing when their weapons are blunt based.

Fact: The current system needs drastic changes to improve upon so a much more pleased crowd can be obtained. (I believe ~80% approved in the questionaire?)

False: This game is better than FFXI in terms of being unique to a certain degree.

You can not be unique if you have a hall pass to every ability with minimal consequences.
Who says a MRD shouldn't have MP? Or a PUG can't use other WS? Who died and left you in charge of what is right or not? I like having my melee character having MP. I turn my PUG into a lovely tank I like being able to have taunt, and cure, and pro It's fun I don't want someone telling me how I should spend my points to make my character. I went through the time to level it, I want it the way I want it. And if you chose to have your abilities limited, no one is stopping you from doing so. You want your MRD to not have magic, then don't spend points to put magic on it. Plain and simple. Restrict yourself, and let those who enjoy mixing it up, mix it up. Yeesh! >_<
