Pet Class Needed!

I'm hoping to see PUP again soon.

Yoshi-P already acknowledged the lack of pet classes in one of his interviews as a balance issue. They'll probably be put in some time, we just don't have any time frame on that yet.

I think they should add in RDM, SMN, BLU for the magic classes and BST for the melee to balance the classes out a little

I'd like to see...

-- A pet class (either BST or SMN, probably SMN because there aren't many mage classes... hopefully both a BST+SMN one day)
-- An enfeebling class (probably RDM, or something like it...)
-- A hate/aggro redirection class (like THF in XI; the job helped keep hate on the tank)

Unused? That's what the ninjas want you to think.

"For Arcanist planning to include at start of 2.0
It's more of the sorcerer class that uses magic and WS to debuf and range and a technical pet class."

I really want my Beastmaster but I'm very interested in what Arcanist will be like.

Arcanist isn't a class I even remotely care about.

I think the first pet class will be BST or PUP. I doubt we'll see SMN until we have a whole lot of primal, and lesser primal content. I imagine it would be boring if the only thing you can summon is spirits.

SMN is one of the strongest jobs in XI atm in new content if the SMN itself isn't gimped and did their magian trials or sought a nirvana.

BST or PUP all the way. PUP mainly because that little automata was smarter than most mages I've run across lol (and anyone who played it knows that says a lot about people who really don't try at their jobs -.-)
