Scout, Caster, Pet. Which class would you want next?

[normalforce]

Stemming from this translation by Reinheart, Yoshida asked which class would you want next?

• A scout class (thief)
• A new caster class (RangedDD+Debuff)
• A pet class (Pet user+Debuff)
• Other suggestion

I know people are clamoring for a third caster class and other are drooling over the potential for possible pet classes, but my heart has always belonged to a thief class.

So, in order of importance to me, I'd vote: Thief first, Caster next, Pet third.

[Rokien]

As a melee person, I would say caster.

[redmage]

All three would be fantastic, really, but if they are only asking for one, I'd hope for the Caster class. I need the Redmage Job in this game asap!

[Molly_Millions]

Musketeer <Can I have it?>

[grandm]

i feel if they don't add the mage class. all those that cried hard when their debuffs were taken away. will act like this is a sequel "cry hard 2, cry harder"

although the thief camp is quite filling up. and i think there could be tears there if they don't get their wish

chances are summoner will be the job of the pet class. and i read in an interview that yoshi's fav, was the summoner. it would be a shame for work to stop on V2.0, because our producer is so depressed and crying over not getting his fav class/job

to be honest i don't really mind which class is next. but whatever is chosen, i predict tears and lots of em

(i hope to know what i want to vote for by the time the poll is out)

Seems kind of a moot point considering Yoshida already said himself the game needs a caster so the next class will be a caster.

Between the other two I'd like to see a thief, even though I have high hopes for musketeer.

[Holy_Dragoon]

Caster based on that list most certainly.

i think this might have got lost in translation, when yoshi said he wanted a new caster class he ment DoM. beastmaster/summoner could and i think probally would be DoM

Anyone who does not vote for a pet class automatically kills 100 kittens.

Oh good, was looking for a nice place to put this. Yoshida is discussing the third FINAL FANTASY XIV Player's Poll.

Hello! This is Producer/Director Yoshida.

The third player survey will be after patch 1.20 is released and is scheduled to be implemented during the new year (around the middle for January).

We’d like you to take this survey about future updates and 2.0, and based on your feedback we would like to adjust the operation direction.

He also responded to a player in regards to listening to poll feedback specifically.

Yoshi-p, you should do what you want to do...

As game designers, of course we are doing our best, but for example…

Of the below "classes" that will be implemented, which do you prefer?

Scout-type class (Thief, etc.)
Caster class (Ranged DD and Debuff)
Pet class (Pet user and Debuff)

I think it would be good to hear feedback on this type of stuff.
Of course, we need to keep battle balance in mind, so whether we can really implement 100% of what is in the survey is a separate problem. However, we would really like to hear feedback that we can use for our long term plans.
