Never saw a caster. A caster would be interesting

Beastmaster
Also, you can already predict what kind of job we will be getting based on pure logic of what we have. We have 4 tanks that share gear. We have 4 healers that share gear. We have 2 melee dps that share gear(DRG/RPR). We have another 2 that share gear(SAM/MNK). We have 3 Ranged DPS that share gear. We have 3 casters who share gear. And we have a melee that only shares accessories with ranged.
So by this pattern, we should be expecting a Dex based class that shares gear with Ninja. Another caster dps to make them to 4 total in game. And another ranged dps to make the total 4 that has a similar style to Machinist. MCH is now considered the greedy dps while DNC and Bard are pure support oriented.

Spellblade/Mystic Knight/Rune Fencer.
Though personally, I still feel that the New Summoner would have been a better basis for the class than it is for Summoner, with the Self buffing and alternate playstyles. Could have had Flare blade instead of Bahamut, Holy Blade instead of Phoenix, and Fire Ice Lightning blades instead of the three Egi primals*. Throw in positionals (possibly different positionals for different states), three or four move combos, and the OCDs and the class has more depth than Summoner, and fits the Job fantasy. Now they can't really build that without it being "melee Summoner".
*Fire obviously still pairs to Ifrit though I suppose having every attack for a melee class have charge times would be tedious, Titans swaps to Lightning, with it's quick ogcds matching the thematics of lightning better than earth, and Ice becomes the puddle placing Garuda.
