Thread: 2.0 Armoury System & Multiple Jobs? Concerns

I always said way back in the day that they should not have tried to make classes themselves too "Unique" and rework them to be role-specific, because Jobs were suspost to accomplish that. Because they reworked classes to be too-role specific, classes such as GLD is way to restricted to one way of life *The tank*, It would be difficult/impossible to give them another job to branch off of them without gimping the JOB and making it totally wierd. Like Thaum never needed to lose their heal spell, because using the job BLM could have just been the increaser of attack spell potency at the sacrifice (lol) of the ability to use that spell.

If they plan on having the ability for multiple jobs to come off of one class, they are going to have to rework/add skills to classes that simply become unusable without a job or without the right job. A Gladiator could essentially have 30 different skills to learn, but PLD would lose use of ~15 of them, DRK could would lose use of different ~15, and a jobless gld would lose use of anything that seems too "DRK"y or "PLD"y. The current GLD doesnt really fit well with DRK because of its defense oriented traits and skillset. Pretty much not leaving it completely up to JOB quests to have some JOB skills learned and avaliable for the right JOB. I don't want them to not add any new classes (Such as a greatsword or scythe class) that could make use of DRK as well tho.

Like one other said as well, a swords damage is far too weak when compared to other physical DD classes, therefore DRK would be totally gimp when trying to DD with them anyways. Gonna need a new class with a new weapon with some power for the DD DRK.
