Considering jobs will prohibit the use of skills from another class.. Materia

[Fated]

1.21 we will have jobs, and its called "you cant equip skills form another class and are limited to your jobs skills".

Read before posting thank you very much.

Actually, as ignorant as the guy you quoted is, you cannot confirm what you are saying is the truth, either. We don't know the specifics about the job system yet. We don't know the degree to which cross classing will be limited or disabled entirely.

Yes we do. You won't be able to use skills from alternative classes, this was confirmed a long time ago. It'll only be the base class skills and the skills of the job for now at least. (There were skill lists released a couple of months back if you're interested)

Edit- As for skills from materia, I'm not sure it's a good idea being as you'd have to keep reacquiring it every time you replaced the gear, especially if the skills had disproportionately good effects, and if they didn't no one would bother for the above reason.

Edit2- If they came up with another system that was essentially a customisable trait system revolving around rare materia (being as the materia you referenced in FF7 could be fused to the person too?) that become attached to you rather than your gear to augment specific skills, that could be interesting. For example they could provide passive utility such as removing the MP drain from Monk's stances, and you'd select the materia based on preferred stance or something, and make a choice based on it's benefit vs. other materia.

Even then these systems rarely come together well, people just pick the ones that add the most DEEPS and it's not even a choice of what to pick.

Yes, as ignorant as you are, you are correct sir.
