I'm sorry I thought we were all fans of Final Fantasy and knew what classes they can bring. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_F...character_jobs Here is a list of jobs in previous FF games.

Mystic as a CLASS would be a heal over time healer, with very few direct heals. Imagine Scholar + HOTs instead of shields, and no pet. Their first job, Green Mage, would enhance their healing role. Their JOB abilities would primarily be debuff and buff based. They could be given the opposite of Protect (Shell) that is stronger in the magic defense side than the armor. If you want to get fancy you can instead give them a two handed mace, which they've been known to use as well.

Isn't that what already happens? People want to respec every time they switch from SCH to SMN, you can chance Xclass abilities on the fly. And I Don't think one will be better than the other (otherwise why have 2 tanks PLD, WAR) But they will be the same and just offer more versatility. Maybe you can Spec all into Piety so your Time Knight will be better and Your PLD might suffer from it, but you prefer to play that. This post is about what Jobs you can come up with for existing classes. If you dont think GLA is a home for it where does it belong on the existing classes?

That's my guess anyway. I can go into more details if you like.

I can see it now. The BTN becomes enraged after dealing with RMT gatherers, tells, and undercutters.

One day he snaps, and a black pool swirls around his feet. He gets sucked in like getting flushed down a toilet, spiraling down into the abyss.

Moments later, a barbed, scythe wielding phantom of doom rises from the pool with an ominous rumble.

He swings the blade wide, and a wave of dark energy sweeps across the hills, beheading all RMT and botters hiding behind walls.

Such begins the dark knight and his signature skill: Guillotine.

reading this made me think of that : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0w5neFPat1w

I think the way jobs are being implemented, we can see they're really thinking outside the box (like scholar and smn.. and most obviously brd)
That's why I'm thinking RDM coming out of musketeer would be totally plausible (RDM with guns = awesomeness).
As Beastmaster would from archer (like a hunter, capturing wild mobs. seems to fit in well with the wood wailers)
So here's what i've been thinking:

Musketeer -> Corsair [DPS] / Red Mage [maybe a healer over time, so he could DPS a lot too]
Archer -> Beastmaster [DPS pet class]
Pugilist -> Puppetmaster [DPS pet class] / Dancer [support DPS, like brd but with TP] (these seem kinda obvious from the PUG and uldah lore)
greatsword (knight or something) -> Dark Knight [tank] (im sure the next job to come will be a tank, cuz they want to pull people into playing more tank. so either this or:)
katana or dual dagger (rogue) -> Ninja [Melee DPS] / Samurai [evasive tank]
Thaumaturge -> Time or Green Mage [support dps] (slows, gravities, poisons, maybe even a haste. i'd looove this)
Conjurer -> Geomancer [dps] (whoohoo more elementals)
Gladiator -> Mystic Knight or Blue Mage [dps] (just cuz its awesome, could lose his ability to equip a shield. rather, make shields not usable on these jobs)

I'll die a little inside if they release BST and it doesn't use single handed axes.

I like your ideas. I've been thinking if they add new jobs to current classes we might see an influx of gear for current classes. like if DRK is off marauder we might see greatswords added to marauder a patch before the release of said job. But i do think based off what Yoshi has stated Fencer will lead to RDM and Rogue to thief. I like the Beastmaster of archer though.and Dancer and Puppetmaster from Pug makes a lot of sense.

Well that is ture,Yoshi said that in live letter :)
now about second job of each current classes,Yoshi also confirmed the will add new jobs of for current class in version 3.0 which is an expansion pack probably,but untill that of cour we will get anhother new classes/jobs in numbered patches which is also confirmed by Yoshi-P :)
And what i think they can add for current classes new jobs is can be for example archer will get ranger,pugilist will get puppetmaster for sure(as you all know puppetmaster was h2h in ff11 so...)also dark night but not sure from what class that will be come...
