I wish they had just gotten rid of classes when they had the chance to in the ARR remake. It's confusing having two versions of your role, and annoying to carry two sets of gear for it in most cases.
Would have been better to have a base onion knight job or freelancer class to start off with and then expand upon it's abilities as you leveled jobs if you wanted a solo or self-tailored role. There really only needed to be one potato head class for that purpose not several. And it would have been better to keep it limited so it's available for those who liked the concept of classes but wouldn't be so in your face for the people who really were only ever interested in jobs only.
