Want a fast and powerful mage? Go with Mage -> Sage. Want a more defensive healer? Go with Cleric -> Sage.

I'm starting to see what you mean by class nixing, though that name is sort of a misnomer. It's not so much that classes are useless, but simply that we have too many doing the same exact thing (with the top tier classes doing them better). Each class needs to be different.

Re-arranging the classes is probably the best idea I've heard all day, and it can support my idea as well as yours as long as each promotion is distinctly different.

The only way to make wyvern promotions distinctly different, however, would be to make their weapons distinctly different.

Is there a way we can do that?

Edit: As an example, this is what I mean by distinctly different:

- Leftenant - Axe +15 Hit
- Ascetic - Axe/Anima
