Basically, to specialize in something, you must suck at something else. Humes dont suck at anything, but they arent great at anything, so thats why I'm being a hume, for balance.

Same here... That's why I'm also gonna be a Red Mage... They are a Mix of Black Mage, White Mage, and a Warrior. I think I will start from there until lvl 30 then expand to another job.

(Oh, and I like the Red Mage outfit ;))

Before I was thinking of being a hume red mage/thief.

I know this, and therefor...

Balanced meaning average everything. And... Humaa meaning Hume, heh.

I'm still trying to figure out how getting abilities works... on shadow-dragons it lists all the abilities you get at certain levels... but what if you switch jobs? Do you become a lvl-1 person at your new job, are do you start getting abilities from the high level you started the new job at?

in other words...

(fictional abilities)

Black Mage:
lvl 1-Fire
lvl 2-water
lvl 3-Ice
lvl 4-Thunder
lvl 5-Death

White Mage
lvl 1-Cure
lvl 2-Luck
lvl 3-Revive
lvl 4-Cura
lvl 5-lucka (running out of ideas here ;))

Ok... imagine you start a new guy as a black mage from level 1-3, then switch to white, would you be:

You:
lvl 1-Fire
lvl 2-Water
lvl 3-Ice
lvl 4-Cura
lvl 5-Lucka

or

You:
lvl 1-Fire
lvl 2-Water
lvl 3-Ice
lvl 4-Cure
lvl 5-Luck

Or am I completly confused about how new abilities are gained :D
