Changes to additional skills.

I read it as if your a dps you can either cross class certain abailities from any dps class, or that all dps classes will be given a menu of skills to be from such as invigorate, b4b etc without having to raise other class's up

Ye I think so too, would have been odd making all melee and TP based job a need to crossclass withLNCR for invigorate or all tanks provoke from PLD, I still think you'll have to level the jobs first to unlock them though, but I might be wrong

Looks like they're nuking the whole thing, from scratch. I think talking about the current system is pretty pointless.

Discussion is never pointless as long as we are being cordial and good natured about it :<

Like I said earlier. Nuke all the classes, make everything a job and have players start as freelancers. Much better and VERY final fantas-y.

I figure they won't entirely nuke the classes if only to avoid having to rework quest stories. Instead they remove the second class requirement from picking up the job, and rather than being rewarded the "Soul of the X" as an item it's just converted to a trait.
The only thing this wouldn't go perfectly on would be Summoner/Scholar, but they could simply have one of them become an entirely independent job like Dark Knight, Astrologian, and Machinist anyway.

Looks like you've completely misunderstood what they are doing.

If they go ahead and nuke the classes, they're probably gonna have to redo both SMN and SCH extensively because as far as I know they don't like SMN having stuff like Resurrection, Physick and Eye for an Eye... Or SCH having all the SMN DoTs and such... So there'd be abilities gone from both that they'd have to replace... And then there's dealing with the fact that they're linked to the same classes level so if they get split into separate Jobs with no base class, how to do they deal with the jobs levels?

I feel like people would almost prefer SCH get the ACN stuff while SMN gets the overhaul, and I would imagine anyone who has leveled them would get grandfathered in for levels.

Am I sad for this to be the most exciting/interesting part of fan fest to me so far?
