Sooo, if I were to make a tank in this game, what would be the job? Gladiator, yeah? What else? I can combine it with some other job, right? Or at least get some skills from another job that I can then use with my primary job... right?
I'm so lost.
Gladiator, right now, specializes into the Paladin job, which is a tank. They'll likely add more class specializations in time, most likely adding at least a DPS job.
Your other class option for tanking, right now, is Marauder, which specializes into the Warrior job (think Blood DK Tanking back in early Wrath).
You have up to 5 cross-class skill slots in a job, and 10 in a class. These are limited in availability to your class, with even stricter limits on job skills (generally only 2 other classes are available).
To replace those 5 slots, jobs get 5 specialized skills unique to that job, which cannot be cross-classed.
Not all basic class skills are cross-class. For example, Protect can be slotted by any class (and slotted by the Scholar and Paladin jobs), but Fire cannot be slot by any class and is limited to Thaums and Blms.
Right now, only one class may specialize into two jobs - Scholar and Summoner. These have different cross-class limitations.
