Request: Ability to re-assign class levels after 1.20

THM cross-classes cures from CNJ.

THM retains its effectiveness as a healer going from 1.19 to 1.20.

Does this mean you have conceded that THM is indeed capable of cross-class healing with a large mana pool and MP efficiency, or not? Can we finally let this topic die?

The point is that even after the changes in 1.18 where it was obvious (as you admit) that CNJ got more white magey, and even after the changes in 1.19 where THM got even more black magey, you still went ahead and ranked up THM despite it being glaringly obvious what was gonna happen in 1.20.

This undermines your entire argument that you didn't know it was coming.

You regen MP the way we do it now: stand still.

Ethers and potions should become overall more useful for Alchemists to justify their existence.

OP acts as if because he needs to go cross-class to get to play the role he did before that the class somehow "doesn't exist anymore". It exists when you cross-class it.

Other than that the argument is nothing but baseless assumptions about cross-class effectiveness (or lack of it).

I'd prefer if they restored a percentage of my HP/MP, and a large percentage at that. As of now, they're pretty much a waste of space.

P.S.
I'd love to see some sort of MP regen food or drink.

Part of the fun of playing an MMO during it's growing years is the change. Everyone should expect it...no demands for this or that. Just embrace the changes!!!

It's ok dont worry I can solve this...Just level CON. There are two mages that can share several abilities why wouldnt you want them both at 50?

Given that THM is also losing Siphon MP (while CNJ receives new MP regeneration abilities), it seems that THM will effectively be transformed into a nuke-only job.

Speaking for myself, I ranked up THM under the old mages-are-good-at-both-roles paradigm, with the intent of using THM as a healer. Now that THM is being transformed into a straight nuking job, I am disappointed to learn my healing class will not be able to heal any more.

I understand that the players voted for drastic changes in the survey. However, if such changes are going to be implemented, is it possible for the players to be able to reassign class levels to match up to the new vision of the game?

This isn't a simple issue of "ARC isn't good any more so I want to be MRD now"; there are always going to be shifts in the pecking order of DDs. This is more like removing ARC's DD abilities and replacing them with BRD songs (which is, notably, not what is planned for ARC/BRD). There's a huge difference between shifts in the effectiveness of a role and removing that role altogether.

now you'll be able to lvl con as whm which could be fun. many people are disappointed that they wont be able to lvl their jobs but you will be able to. Im gonna get lancer to 30 so that i can xp drg to 50 myself.
