New Battle System

[Felis]

The skill part of the battle system get changed (the not so usefull skills and cross-class skill system), not the whole battle system

It's a revision of the current battle system. It is not a new battle system. You might want to rewatch the announcement..

It's mostly to clean up some of the ability bloat, and retooling the cross class system to more of a role skill system. The former is to help with easing up the overcomplicated rotations. The ladder is to make vital cross skills far more accessible.

The combat isn't fundamentally changing at all. It's just simplification so that more players of different skill levels can stand on equal grounds in Stormblood's endgame, as we could more reasonably do in ARR days. It'll make for a heathier game that way.

I would like ppl to stop going crazy about the changes to the battle system since they are probably gonna be just the things they announced + the new skills and jobs.
