Guess that Next Tank Job!

[EdwinLi]

We have Dark knight for 3.0 so let go into the Unknown for this version of Guess That!

So what do you think may be the Next Tank Job in the future of FF14?

(You can have up to two guesses)

I'm guessing either Gunblade Job (Garlean Empire is becoming very active again as current MSQ is showing and Gunblade users have been shown with Tank like armors. Though with it being a mix of Melee and Range combat in FF14 lore it may also be a new DPS job as well.)

or

Samurai (originally meant to be the Tank Job of 3.0 until they changed plans for it to be Dark Knight due to not wanting another Eastern themed Job since Ninja was released recently so it may be still possible. However, it being a new melee DPS is possible as well since Yoshi-P has considered it as a new melee DPS but that remains to be seen until they make their final decision.)

Giant shield....Uhhhh..... Something with illusions..... I'm out of ideas. Tanks are difficult

[Reokudo]

Blink tank. It's gonna happen, just to make people sad.

[AskaRay]

They'll re-release summoner as a tank job.

i want to guess.. Sentinel from 1.0 when a gladiator equipped 2 shields. main weapon, Giant shield

I'm guessing Samurai, I'd like to see it as an avoidance tank with a focus on evading and then counterattacking.

Other than that, something purely magic based that uses barriers to mitigate damage maybe?

Titan-egi!

We need an Evasive tank or maybe a magic tank.
We have A self-regen, def tank and DRK the Lifesteal tank?
Samurai will probably be next.

The Evasive tank is arriving in 3.0 being DK.

Dark knight was revealed to be the Parry/Evade tank by Yoshi-P when he revealed DK in 2014.

How this will work I can only guess DK may use the Power of Darkness to make him or herself harder to be seen by the enemies in his or her Tank Stance. After all part of the Power of Darkness in any basic Fantasy story is to cloud people's vision from their own actions or their own emotions like every generic "why Darkness is dangerous" statement.

Blue Mage - eat tank. They eat named attacks.
