Everyone who is talking about ability bloat is right imo, I think for the next expansion something like 4 traits and one new ability at the level cap would be the way to go. However 2 things I would like to see that would definitely add some spice to the game would be

1)Give us something akin to glyphs in WoW. I don't know if they still do it but this system that was in WoW a few years ago allowed players to modify thier abilities in certain ways. For example you'd have a skill like regen and you'd have the option of giving it a lower MP cost, longer duration, or shorten the duration but increase the potency.

2)Even though it would be a balancing nightmare, why not let us cross class (certain) job abilities? I hate how the dev team seems to be moving away from what makes the FF MMOs interesting.

I'd like an instant single target HoT spell for scholar so I can just top-off people instead of wasting an entire physik, maybe a bit of extra healing potency from traits.

[Rennies]

If Scholar gets a HoT on demand, White Mage should get a 300 potency heal that also gives a shield, and Ast should get the ability to swap between noc/diurn in combat. Oh and give Ast/Whm fairies too.

It would be nice to have the old Holy back that was just nerfed.
I want an ability like Bane? on SMN/SCH. One that spreads my DoTs for me. Have it be a trait for an existing ability. Holy again.
While I'm at it, might as well make Holy give out a 200 potency heal too.

Make it happen, Square Enix.

What problems would that solve? I fail to see the point.

No point in having a skill exp system, just give us trait options to alter the spells we have. Though we won't be getting that.
