[dev1033] Ideas for a Two-Tier Class System: Jobs on Top of Weapon Specializations

[Arcell]

this kind of development will take long time because of making new skills and balancing out. if they decide to make this, i wouldnt be suprise if it comes out 2year + later.

This is already one of their potential ideas to be put in by the end of the combat overhaul.

Yoshida-san is between two possible plans at this time. The first idea is that the traditional names would be introduced as “higher” or “advanced” classes. The traditional classes would thus be something of a goal for players. The second idea is that the traditional names would be more of a subset or specialization within the existing classes.

It wouldn't take 2+ years to do, the skills exist already in the game and the balancing has been made a bit easier with the smaller groups.
