Things can be changed. >w>

All that does if make a Gunblade job more likely. The probability of a 2edgy4u Reaper Job using scythes are zilch since inlike the Gunblades which were only used on 1 PLD sword and a few MCH guns, the Scythes are used for 100% of the BTN's offhands.

Hammers on the other hand have several types already plus none of them are Warhammers so that is also more possible than scythes

As an I aside I put my vote in for mystical weapons, whips, fans and rapiers (most of which I see tied to certain Jobs like Fans for Dnacer and Rapiers for Mysic Knight and/or red Mage)

All for the Scythe, Whip or Fans :3

A scythe that is also a sniper rifle, like Ruby's weapon from RWBY

We'll probably see one, but in the hands of a Garlean.

Not to nitpick, but adding new weapon types is pretty much equivalent to adding new jobs/classes.

The game USED to allow classes to wield multiple weapon types, but SE has been moving away from that with great gusto. I very much doubt they plan to move back. For example. GLD/PLD used to use both daggers and swords. CNJ/WHM used to use both wands and staves. Daggers have been removed completely from GLD/PLD's arsenal, and no new wands have been made in years. Anyone hoping to see MRD/WARs with warhammers are doomed to disappointment, however cool that might sound.

For the record, though, I'd love to see a whip-wielding job added!

I'm okay with this though, because it would be logical to force the damage type to blunt, and also, it gives us a chance to have a job that uses big blunt force weapons!

Scythe, Whip, Fans, Rapiers, Hammers, Bells - Whatever is still missing from the classic entourage of weapons in the series

Fans and Chakrams

Margaret Moonlight also uses a scythe with a sniper rifle. Though I think the concept itself might not meld well with FF14, it is a fun idea.
