"Rune Fencer" literally means "fencing with runes" ie. "you use runes to fence with." So it makes sense. If you watch Olympic Fencing contests, you see the quick hand-movements, and graceful weaving arm-movements. This is similar to a Rune Fencer using runes, quickly and deftly.1) The Job Rune "Fencer" doesn't get the fencer job trait. Hardcore fail IMO. This really could have been avoided if SE just changed the name of the job.
Also "Fencer" is of course 1-handed, and RuneFencers mainly use 2-handed weapons.
1) PLD has godly staff skill, even though their job is totally based on the use of shields full-time.
2) PLD has godly staff skill, but has no RME Staves.
3) WAR gets Fencer trait, Fencers use swords, WAR has a high sword skill, but WAR has no RME Swords.
4) That girl in the jewellery shop in Lower Jeuno has been looking at the same three necklaces for over 12 years Earth Time. When is she going to pick one!
5) The Tarutaru Dom Ops NPC at Flux-8 Altepa[a] has introduced herself to me over 500,000 times. She keeps telling me that she is new to her job, even though we both know that is not true!
