Proposed System Change (Repost)

[Aldarin]

No, you can still change the primary and secondary specializations. The specializations are basically what job/role you are playing currently, like jobs in ffxi. The confusing portion of the current system is that a gladiator could be stated for multiple roles, which are not apparent when looking at a character. With this system it is easy to tell what role the player is expecting to play.

Example: two players are playing with a one-handed sword. One wants to tank, the other wants to be a DD. Their characters are specialized for those roles. In the current system there is no way to tell the difference. With the proposed system they would probably be :
Gladiator(melee damage, melee damage).
Gladiator(defense, support).
In this scenario it is easy to determine what a person wants to play, and whether or not they fill a currently needed party role.
