PLD main here, and honestly if people can't handle the ever-changing nature of MMORPGs they ought ot just hang up their hat. The very core issue here is that hte devs of FFXIV want to not do this, and it's causing all kinds of issues everywhere. MMORPGs need continuous change including reworks and re-implementations. Classes should not at all be recognizable any more after a few expansions. (That also keeps the game fresher since the gameplay shifts over time!)

That is to say, if tomorrow they rip out the entire job and implement something else entirely that just happens to be called Paladin and wield a shield, but is actually a mix of a group buff song-type character with chants like DAoC's Paladin and a healer, I'm all here for it! Gimme!
