yes omg i have been wanting to make a thread about this. its really annoying to have their stats shared. sometimes i really dont understand the decisions they make.
one of the main selling points of this game and for me is that your able to do everything and be everything on one character, this is the only system in the game that locks you out of something. and since scholar and smn are 2 complete opposites, theres no way to be a good scholar without being a gimped smn. it just doesnt make sense with the design of their own game.
the only real way to be both is to make another character and thats not right, thats not what the games about or else they wouldnt have put so much effort into the armoury system.
im sure this doesnt affect everyone because not everyone wants to be both a scholar and a smn but when they start adding other jobs that are complete oppposites there will be more people seeing the problem in it. they already hinted at the possibility of dark knight branching off of gladiator.
