[dev1206] Class Reforms & Action Lists

[OMEGA_HACK]

Very detailed, concise information. Its like they listened!

So BLM/WHM are the FF1 BLM/WHM Aero is becoming White Magic again kinda neat, but I cannot remember if Stone was White Magic or not, either way pretty cool.

Ancient Magic is being reserved for a new class perhaps? LNC/DRG seems more like FFXI's DRK/WAR (ability-wise) which is pretty bad ass if you ask me, also seems like we get a "Dragon Breath" type ability (the fire damage one). Archer really is becoming support (the bard side anyway; but some really cool support abilities). And BLM gets Convert?! lol craziness.

Sorry if I sound like a broken record, I didn't want to read through 26 pages of posts, heh.

Yeah once something is in the game they never change it again... they don't code it, they sculpt it in stone, recover it with solid steel and toss it into the sea to never be touched again...

Somebody sig this! I don have room! ; ;

sooooo

the description for BLM explicitly says ancient magic and 6 elements.
however i only see 3 elements and no real hint at ancient magic.

anyone see anything different? seems to me the description is massively miss leading.

Or by the time 1.21 drops there will have been a level cap increase and ancient magic added. As to the missing Water spells, we must not forget about traits. Traits may be a way to still have the same amount of abilities , but convert for example ice to water.

Yoshi stated that there are currently no plans to raise the level cap and that if by chance it does happen it will not be until the far future after 1.21

he said it is possible to make it in before 2.0, but remember thats a year away

Actually thats not quite what he said at all.

There is no plan to raise the level cap until 1.21, and this is because it will usher in the job system. Beyond that point up until 2.0, we would like to carefully decide what to do. Increasing the level cap will lead to wider gaps between players.

This is actually was was said and taken directly from the Lodestone translation of the live letter. It was just stating that no level cap increase was planned until 1.21 and the jobs are introduced. it says nothing about waiting til 2.0 or in the far future

and i still translate that as "as of right now there arent any plans but if it happens itll be some time before 2.0" which again is a year away.
that statement by no means means that it could happen in the near future. especially since 1.21 isnt happening until some time in february, which is at least three months away. tack on another three to 6 months thats almost a year away. my statement is still valid.
