    I knew how it was going to work systematically for a while before actually getting to use it, but my disappointment came that the LBs weren't individualized. I think only a MNK should be able to use Final Heaven, or BLM using Meteor. It makes the abilities feel less special knowing there's at least one other role that can use the exact same LB.

    i doubt ffxi-styled skillchains would work for the current battle system... imagine you are in temple of qarn trying to mitigate doom... and meanwhile u gotta worry abt skill chaining with other players just to be effective, not forgetting your individual skills o_O it worked in ffxi because apart from skillchains, then only other thing u really had to worry were stuns, positioning (thf and /thf) and a few minor things like shadows etc.

    but i do wish each class have gotten their own LB... a monk using braver is the team being just lazy imo... i wont even care if the damage modifiers are the same, tbh.

    Chaining LB may be more difficult to pull off as Shuon suggested in the doom example. However I don't really have an issue with that. After all I don't think anyone is suggesting we take anything away from the LB system by ONLY allowing it to be used as a chain system. What I was getting at was that there should be more layers to the LB system so that in those tricky situations you can either do it the easy way and have 1 dps zerk the boss or if you had the team work (such as over teamspeak etc) then you can have the extra benefit of synergy.

    However, the core of my issue was really to do with the non-specific LB of all classes/jobs, as that seriously felt like a copout from SE.
