Passive jobs seem to finally be put to use more effectively with the lower statistics required, props for that.
It really makes it much more possible for me to RP a lower level character in Dementlieu and level through RP. Since the stat requirements there haven't been made much higher, which is great.
I also like how Dementlieu jobs have slightly higher wages, which makes sense, because everything there is generally a lot more expensive than in Vallaki. (Food, rooms, etc.)
