Job Personalization: Can I Have It?

If they did talents of any sort, let it not be trees.

They were so annoying and unfun in wow that they got rid of them and replaced them with talent tiers, containing optional fun abilities that made slight alterations to your rotation/playstyle.

In the old days of WoW, you'd google the best way to spec. If you didn't spec optimally, you wouldn't be getting a raid invite. The talent choices weren't even fun. "1% into spell haste or 1% into crit rate". I'd rather not see that come here.

(I'd love it if every job had a viable dps specialization option though, it would make questing and open world content loads more easy. Cleric stance just doesn't do it.)

Wait, what? Cleric Stance does great. If anything, healers have an advantage when it comes to most open world content. For example, being able to complete bills for lvl 59 hunts at lvl 50 without outside help and every cooldown and trick in the book is definitely a plus.

Astrologian attacks are a tad undertuned.

Edit: Anyway, i'm talking about a full on dps option for healers/tanks.

With a new full rotation and everything. Astrologian is currently my favorite job, and healing is fun, but I don't always feel like healing. You dig? Sometimes I just want to hit stuff as my astrologian, but I can't do that in a practical setting because the job is healing only.

It's like priests in WoW. You could be Holy or Discipline (healer specs) but if you didn't feel like healing you could switch to Shadow (dps) and blow some things up.

SMN/SCH already do this basically.

Not a bad suggestion, but as far as AST goes, I think I just threw DoTs on things, stacked HoT on myself, and spammed Gravity until everything died. AST needs help with some things to be sure, but solo is fine.

Right? One of my favorite things to do while leveling Scholar was my daily hunts. DoT'ing up Chimeras in Azys Lla and kiting them around gleefully while my fairy kept me alive at around level 50-51 was epic fun. :3
