Will square enix ever make weapon based skills?

Dont hold your breath on this one.

Theme park MMO's don't mesh well with type of gearing. As others said, it opens the door far too wide for exclusivity and balancing can become a nightmare (they are adamant about balance when developing this game, to appeal to casual and hardcore players at once).

The closest thing you had was "sanctions" with GC gear. Remember those? Of course not, because they were worthless gear set bonuses and were immediately replaced by better gear 3 levels later.

Game is not setup to accomodate this.

so how is balancing done in ff11? and that game been around since 2000
