Battle system changes

Such ignorance, first and foremost there were many people when 2.0 launched that didn't have every cross class skill available, I myself didn't have blood for blood once I hit 50 on BRD, I didn't even realize I was missing it because it wasn't a requirement to open up BRD unlike PUG was. I was busy learning my main class and not thinking about nearly maxing out a 3rd class for one skill. Granted with provoke, it's unlocked earlier than almost any skill minus cleric stance that I'm aware of it, it doesn't me this system isn't horribly designed, it's in most cases a horrible attempt to get other players to play other classes with the incentive to use typically one skill out of the toolkit for your main.

More so, cross class abilities stopped being relevant on 3.0 release as 0 skill has the ability to cross over, it's developmental flawed to not give classes the skills they need to function going forward, you can't shoe horn players into old content for one skill and say with a straight face the system works like it should. As I stated with the Novice Hall and the issue my friend had with it, who might I add didn't buy a sub after his trial because the lack of training the game offers, you can't release a game and keep it updated while expecting new players to be able to learn both the old ways of the game, and the new simultaneously.
