Focus Classes amongst their respective Jobs

[Alaltus]

So theres been some discussions about Classes and Jobs lately and i felt i had some thoughts that could make a thread and give people a place to discuss this out.

What i've been thinking is what if Classes no longer share abilities amongst each other and instead share abilities between Class and Job.

Gladiator -> Paladin
Gladiator -> Dark Knight

They would still share levels but Gladiator would get its versatility from the basic abilities it learns that are/will be more recognised as abilities it's counterpart jobs can use. For example Gladiator would have access to two opposing lists of actions to clearly define which are accessible by Paladin and Dark Knight. Gladiator could use Holy Succor and Last Resort but Paladin is locked out of Last Resort and Dark Knight is locked out of Holy Succor.

Paladin and Dark Knight in this example would gain more unique and tailor made abilities to perform their roles while throwing out the class actions that lets be honest are not always the best fit for them. Paladin and Dark Knight would also lose out for soloing, Paladin a host of damage abilities and Dark Knight a host of survival abilities while Gladiator would keep both to help focus on soloing/lowman content.

This is assuming that Classes will get multiple jobs but this form of Class+Job specialisation would toss out the possible problems further down the line of having to juggle the potency of x number of Class actions being mixed together freely. It would reduce the burden on players forced to level x y z Classes to perform their role and provide a much more user friendly action list that does not include many abilities that are just not useable in any meaningful way. While if done well still managing to salvage the Solo/Lowman party ability of Classes.

Edit: I want to state that i'm not saying Classes cant/shouldnt have abilities unique to them.
