It would also promote the health of CC, letting me go in on a tank, get XP for a tank, but play a decent class(looking at you, GNB :sadface

    There's no reason to do this because if, for some obscene reason, a meta like 5 WAR or 5 WHM arose, then even if everyone started playing skill would take the fore instead of RNG BS.

    Agree? Disagree? Prove it with math!

    TL;DR:

    Only works if you don't actually see the jobs of the enemy until the job lock is in place, otherwise it could end up a game of last-second rock-paper-scissors at certain ranks.
    one thing that is worrying is if you are fighting known one-tricks on ladder, so you know what jobs to pick. So the aftermath of adding this will cause one of two things:

    - one-trick player is prone to get countered hard if they don't one-trick a meta job
    - it forces players to learn multiple jobs early on rather than learning one job properly first then advancing on other jobs

    Pros and cons, really.

    Oh I guarantee you that a lot of party lists would look like slot machines before the game starts lol
