Job/Merit points? (Idea)

[Zumi]

Merits were added because at the time the dev team didn't want to raise the level cap past 75 but they wanted people to grind more exp to get some more stats and abilities. FFXIV isn't at the point where they are going to stop raising the level cap. Job points were added for the same reason once the level cap was at 99 they wanted yet another system to add stuff to your character by grinding more exp.

I don't think this community can handle choices.

On one hand you will have the people who only cares about being better and they will seek out the most efficient way and stick to it.

On the other hand you got the people that doesn't always care about achieving max performance and rather play around a little to see what funky things one might come up with.

But....

Seeing as we already have cases of people being abused simply for being new or not doing the optimal rotation then i would dread what would happen if a system like this is implemented.

As much as i would love something like this, this game was not meant to have it and most likely never will.
