Considering how much of the battle system has been fashioned after ffxi, i wonder if there will be weapons skills and non-magic abilities like Provoke or Sneak Attack. It was disconcerting that there was no option in the menu for abilities like that in the demo, I hope that they're there in the final form. The FFXI battle system that FFXII seems to borrow from would be desparately boring if the only options available to you were auto-attack and magic(summoning/items too) Let's hope that the skeleton battle system we saw in the demo is more fleshed out next august
