cross class skill pool

[Aedria]

I read somewhere that the skill pool skills were going to be given to everyone at level 32 without having to earn them by leveling a cross class I feel this would be wrong --if the individual wants the skill then make them level the cross class to get it don't just start giving stuff away because people are lazy and don't want to work for it. This is the reason a lot of other games are having problems because they are making gameplay too easy and people that are here looking for a challenge are getting bored.
I feel that the pool is a good idea its just that you shouldn't just make it an automatic item, make people work for what they want.

1) There's no cross-class system anymore. And for good reason.

3) Not sure where 'level 32' was pulled out of.

2) 'Leveling to get new abilities' is not a challenge. It's tedious and turns people off. (Unless you actually think forcing people to level a job they don't like in order to play their main job is fun and challenging....which is sounds like you do)

Go google for a little bit and come back. I could give you the information, but you should work for what you want.

sounds like to me you are just one of the generation of children that believe that everything should be given to them and they don't have to work for anything they get. Besides my suggestion wasn't even directed at a lazy child I was directing it at the developers.

That ship has sailed. Levelling for cross-class skills is gone.

actually it's not about laziness it's about cross skills being important and jobs not having the skills they need because of it, and other people being hurt by the way it worked.

aka tanks not having provoke or healers without swiftcast or some other important skill.

The skills aren't going to be from specific classes anymore, it's a pool of 10 skills you can select 5 from, that you earn as you level. You will not be magically earning other classes' skills, you'll be using a selection of skills specially made for your role that add a small amount of diversity. It's simply a different system rather than "catering to lazy players" or whatever, it just happens to make it easier on people who don't have all the time in the world to level their main job to 60 PLUS getting two other jobs to 30-something.

In what world is leveling another class to get a cross-class skill required for endgame 'difficult'?

I bet you're one of those people that complained during Heavensward release with a ton of new Dark Knight tanks running around without Provoke and Convalescence, or the hordes of Astrologians without Protect and Cleric Stance. Or you ended up in a Dun Scaith where NONE of the tanks had Awareness cross-classed.

If you're one of those people that WOULD complain about the above happening, then you're a freaking hypocrite to not see this change as a good thing because 'spending 10-20 hours on a class I don't want to play for a required skill is difficult and challenging'.
