What if every job was like how it started?

[Shikiseki]

Well my major takeaway would be jobs would have toolkits that would feel complete at level 50 instead of being absolutely barebones as it is right now.
I honestly don't remember most of the job's rotations back in the day but it feels like they had a lot more "filler" spells and actual CCs build into the kits like heavy, slow, bind.

I really miss shadow flare and bane though...

Honestly, go back and have a look at what a jobs rotation actually was back in the day and you might have a different opinion.

but it feels like they had a lot more "filler" spells and actual CCs build into the kits like heavy, slow, bind.

As an example, things did have CC, there was a lot more stuns on damage cooldowns, PLD had a pacify etc, however, look back and honestly think to yourself, how much of that actually mattered?

Anyone can play this game and I suspect, if they are honest with themselves, they will realise it wasn't necessarily as good as it is now.
