Lets have class only abilities and spells

[Jinko]

Not really. I like classes because it prevents stupid things like PLD with a staff, PLD dual wielding, RDM with a staff and so on from happening again. It helps define each name and job assigned to it without going too far out of concept.

You can still restrict weapons to a job .. Oo

SE did it wrong from the start and made the job system a mess, they should have changed the name of classes to jobs, then restricted some spells (which they did with classes anyway) and then added new skills (which they did with jobs anyway).

The problem is there is no need to have a subsystem behind a class system, when we get AF weapons Yoshi said you will have to have a class weapon equipped first > equip the soul crystal > equip AF weapon.

That's the most convoluted rubbish I've seen in ages and I hope it doesn't work like that in 2.0.

Why can't I just equip a BLM staff and be a Black Mage. ?
