    Request: In-game flavor text for Abilities/Spells/Limit Breaks

    It would be great if there was sort of an Encyclopedia within the game, that as you level jobs, all skills/spells that you learn or unlock get descriptions similar to these above. This menu could be accessed at any time and would allow players on any job to double check descriptions and tooltips of classes they've unlocked. In addition to allowing you to read the tooltips, there could be descriptions/flavor text like in the FFXIV Lore Book.

    For example, for Dark Knight, we get these gems:

    Dark Force

    By infusing a vast well of aether with her own inner darkness, the dark knight forms arcane barriers of impregnable midnight. The sight of liquid shadow pouring from a sky torn open by this otherwise benevolent technique is commonly described as “unsettling”.

    Hard Slash


    A sweeping slash, followed by a punishing upward slice. The most fundamental attack in a dark knight’s repertoire, this technique originated from a now-antiquated style of knightly combat.

    Unleash

    Releasing his pain and rage upon nearby foes, the dark knight manifests an inky black circle of spikes on the ground around him. All those caught in its thorns are struck by unreasoning terror, and an irresistible need to claw away at its source.

    Living Dead

    This dark art allows the practitioner to continue fighting through the most heinous of injuries, and exhibit an immunity to pain usually attributed to the shambling undead. Though undeniably effective, abandoning one’s corporeal form to negative energy in this manner, however briefly, is an act fraught with mortal peril.
