What changes would you like to see in 4th job skills?

The whole idea of certain types of strikes being stronger than others while using different weapons becomes flawed when the type of strike you actually do is randomized.

If you know that swinging is always more effective than thrusting (which wouldn't always apply to a real situation but it does here), why the hell would you thrust on purpose?

The only plausible answer I can think of is that it is easier physically to move from a slash into a stab than slash and slash again (faster too). However, physically, 1 slash from a polearm would also just about cleave in 2 an average human...

So...
I guess the purpose was to keep warriors from spamming the same animation over and over (sucks for you, thieves, archers, mages, and pirates).

@Dusk -
I seem to slash more if I jump while hitting power strike, I seem to recall a 25 slash streak...
