Getting back different tier spells?

[Shougun]

I like the idea of spells evolving in looks as they already do in power....as a main BLM from FFXI i'm still confused in how spells were given in this game.. they need to fix the 3 ice spells and add water nukes somehow

While I see tactical advantage for different tier spells, my biggest gripe against removing tiers was that visual differentiation became impossible (since tactically I can adapt, but visually it was a complete loss).

So yeh.. lol


Perhaps they can keep the same spell for all tiers. IE (Thunder for I-IV) as you cast the bar will hit checkpoints representing each tier, the point where you stop is the spell you cast. (So longer channels = higher cost, better visual, more damage)

[ normal casting bar ]

Proposed:
[ Tier 1 || Tier 2 || Tier 3 || Tier 4 ]

Each tier unlocked after leveling so far.
