    More Unique Character Development Via Leveling

    Something that really confused me when playing this game and other classes was the fact that classes/jobs dont get any skills or passive traits that directly effect how your character is. What I mean by this is having traits like Ninja has. I noticed that only Ninjas seem to get interesting traits and character development when they get stronger. Examples:

    Fleet Of Foot: Increases run speed
    All-Fours: Takes less damage from falls

    When you become a Ninja, you get a whole new run, sprint, and jump animation(It is a shame though that you cant toggle it off)

    Why don't other jobs have things like this. Why DOESN'T Dragoon have a fall damage trait!?!?!? Every class seems to be stuck with Enhanced <insertweaponskill/OCD>

    All classes should get traits that effect them directly in some way. I also think it'd be nice if fighting animations or /cposes were unlocked with level. Actually Imma make a whole dang list of things that could be done a certain way for classes.

    Bard
    Eagle's Eye: Increases targeting range
    <insertname>: Increases song range
    /cpose Unlock: Unlocks the /cpose for Male/Female (throw out idea)

    Dragoon
    Moon Jump: Increases character jump height
    Soft Landing: Decreases(or gets rid of) impact damage from falls
    /cpose Unlock: Unlocks the /cpose for Male/Female (and perhaps the Estinien fight style?)

    White Mage
    Battle Mage: Unlocks the option to hold your staff like a Black Mage(Vice versa for Black Mage)
    Quick Raiser: Decreases Raise cast time
    /cpose Unlock: Unlocks the /cpose for Male/Female

    Black Mage
    Cleric: Unlocks the option to hold your staff like a White Mage(Above)
    Cut(or Scratch..whatever): Makes Scathe an OCD with a cooldown of say, 20secs? 30secs?
    Ether Guzzler: Increases the amount of MP given by Ethers or MP-giving things
    /cpose Unlock: Unlocks the /cpose for Male/Female

    Warrior
    Super-powered: Increases Overpower range(or makes it wider)
    <insertname>: Unlocks the option for other races/genders to hold the axe like a Roe male(Allows Roe guys to hold theirs like other races)
    /cpose Unlock: Unlocks the /cpose for Male/Female

    Paladin
    Infamy: Increases base enmity
    <insertname>: Unlocks the ability to make shield invisible?
    /cpose Unlock: Unlocks the /cpose for Male/Female

    Monk
    Long Reach: Increases melee range
    Enhanced Haymaker: Makes Haymaker an OCD so it can actually like.. be useful.
    Super Saiyan Aura: Obviously we need it. I don't care how it's done. GL animation change maybe?
    /cpose Unlock: Unlocks the /cpose for Male/Female(Annoyed at the fact males get the bland version)

    Scholar
    Quick Reflexes: Increases the movement speed of Eos/Selene
    Alchemy(Or something): Increases the potency of Potions including wards and poison stuff etc
    /cpose Unlock: Unlocks the /cpose for Male/Female

    Summoner
    A Real Dang Brain: Increases Ifrit/Titan/Garuda Egi's AI
    Swift Summon: Decreases Summoning Cast Time
    /cpose unlock



    These are things that could be done. They all change your character in some way. I was disappointed to see no new traits in Heavensward.
    EDIT: Some of these are throwout ideas to make all classes have at least 3 each. I'm completely for something better than bad ideas I had.

    Thoughts?
