Katar are already in game as the various Patas and Jamadhars models for monk weapons.

In order:

- rapiers (Red Mage)
- whip (Beastmaster)
- two-handed hammer
- gunblade

I'd love to see some type of job with dual 1h swords for weapons.

This nunchuck wielding class would simply be known as Bruce Lee.

I like swords.

We need a Whip wielding class. Something like a Beast Tamer/Trainer or smth. I would be really nicely in FFXIV world. Also a Quistis Trepe named NPC would be nice as guild leader. I'm surprised they didn't think about whips yet.

Something like a double ended sword staff would be cool.

I'd want a scythe or something that dual wields a katana + wakizashi.

I want to see different types of katanas once samurai is released.

Nodachi

Shirasaya: it's not really used for battle, but the wooden build looks cool.

Tachi: slightly more curved

Ewww with all this dual wield fan...

You don't have to dual wield everything you know daggers/claws....so boring.

I'd rather just have 1 fan, im sure its easier to dance around with 1 hand free.

I just want to be able to dual wield light spears (one longer, one a bit shorter, or combinable, with some slashing usage atop the obvious piercing) at some point, like a DragoonBerserkerWildling sort of thing...

Barring that, I'll take a bo-staff or a warscythe, please.

Whips > Alchemy/Chemicals > Fans > (Magic (Throwing)) Cards > Rapiers > Scythes > Needles > Orbs > Javelins > Blowdarts > Aetheryte

Chalk me up for another vote for Whips! Though if we get them, I predict a plague of whip-wielding Highlander Hyur women wearing Hempen undies and a mask, all dyed black...

Call me queen! OHOHOHOHO!!!

Welcome to Corneria!

I'd like to see some Orb abilities. Throw one, appear behind enemy. Drop one to explode, throw one to escape etc. I wish the environment was active. I'd say create a character that can control the earth, another the wind etc etc. Something unique vs something in the hand you wave around.

I want a king dedede hammer for war

I want to have a:
1. 2-h Hammer
2. Whipblade, like what Ivy from Soul Calibar has.
3. Tonfa on both hands, like the protaganist from the Legend of Heroes or Hibari from Hitman: Reborn.
4. This one will never happen, but I like to see a stuffed teddybear which grows big during combat. The player will climb on the back from the bear and commands it to fight. Like Anise from Tales of the Abyss.

I could see a gunblade wielding class if they make a expansion related to the Empire or they release a class like the Judge from FFXII.

Whips would be amaaazing. It'd be like melee and range, if done how I imagine; that would be super cool! I'd also like to see battle fans, preferably mostly as melee with a couple of range capabilities. I wouldn't want a Battle Fan with all range attacks, which is what other games have done. A katana would also be lovely, of course.

Dual Wield Fans are more awesome then one fan, and I believe two fans would make the dancing/battle animations much more symmetrical.

I know Astro will have cards but I wanted the card job to be a dps one ._____. sooo... I'd like to see other cards

Oh and bells, for my geomancer :p

I wouldn't mind seeing mammets show up in the game as an equippable companion a la Puppetmaster back in FFXI, the game's already got some basic rigging and assets for 'em anyways.

Other than that, crossbows maybe? A repeating crossbow, even!

I kinda wish that Carpenter's Ulikummi (or with Supra/Lucis) can become PLD or any sword user. Those badass look really cool.

Or maybe those molotov bomb from FFXII.

Maybe a double sided sword/spear for Dragoons?

What's this from? Looks pretty cool.

An Abacus.

For Calculators.

If Nero can use a 2 handed hammer why can't we? Give us hammers!

So many bosses in this game use hammers yet we're the only ones who can't seem to use one.

Give it to Warrior as an alt Weapon

Ummm, Gunblades are already ingame:

Heck, Gilgamesh and Nael even have a Gunspear:

There's only one clear choice BIG ASS ARM CANONS

I haven't learned any of them since I've tended towards the bigger heavier weapons since I'm a larger dude, but the fan style techniques taught at the kung fu school I study at are almost exclusively dual-wield. Sure, there's some switch hand or even the occasional move where both fans are grabbed in one hand and you do something with the other hand, usually a grab of some kind, but that's the exception. Rule of thumb when it comes to martial arts weapons: If it's roughly sword sized or smaller (3-ish feet long, give or take a few inches) it's almost always a dual-wielded weapon. And that's a realism argument, as opposed to a "Who cares about realism!?" argument. :P

They could make it so you could only unlock a gunblade class from growing plants using special seeds in your private/FC garden. :D

...nothing? Not even a titter? ...I'll show myself out. ;)

But seriously. Would love a gunblade job.

Some other great suggestions in this thread. :)

RNG the job

lightsabers :P .....ehm wrong game

Would love to see more Katanas. Very very limited on those right now. :(
Would also like to see more variations in Daggers. Small short swords or toothpicks are kind of boring...

Would also like to see some crossbows for Bards. :P
