Scout, Caster, Pet. Which class would you want next?

It's much more likely to be a pet class if anything. We have 2 mages (soon to be 4, as both Cnj/Thm can exists at the same time as WHM/BLM.)

Examples.

• Attack - Attacks at close range while keeping close distance to the enemy at all times.
• Defend - Defense Greatly increases while guard is up, but renders the pets attack speed.
• Protect - Stands infront of a selected party member absorbing all damage.
• Range - Keeps far distance from the enemy, while using ranged attacks and spells.
• Return - Stops what its doing and returns by your side.

Oh, I would love a Gambit style System for pets in this game. The fun would be able to build out several different gambit profiles allowing you to have different roles in which your "automation"/"pet" would act. Tank, healer, nuker, debuffer, etc... There would be a lot of good possibilities. :)

A pet class would be awesome. I really liked my SMN in FF11.

I don't count Black Mage, or White Mage. They are just an extension of Thaumaturge and Conjurer.

I would like a new caster to level. There's already five DoW, there isn't a need for a sixth. There is no way that pet class is going to be summoner, that leaves Beastmaster, or something entirely new.

The poll is unfair as well like Yoshi-P showed from the first poll, melee damage is the highest played class. He said that caster was going to be implemented next, then pet class, because they weren't sure how summoner was going to work out yet. Now he's gonna leave it up to the majority of players to decide between a new melee, which was named Scout/Thief, versus anonymous caster!?

Bull.

you cant count that as 4, lol, its the same thing with a few extra skills,lol. since mages need to cross class is much more minimal, i doubt youll ever even see a lvl 50 thm or cnj again.

I would definitely go with the introduction of a pet class, then more mage classes and more pet classes at the same time. Melee already has 5 classes, we definitely need more mage classes though.

using the same logic you have 5 mele classes and soon to be 10. caster is by far the most needed class to be added next. caster, scout, pet would be going by most needed.

wut?
can we have some semblance of logic?
these two classes have nothing in common except a "pet" and i use that term loosely in regards to summoner

I am hoping it will be a pet class as well. Need some diversity. :)
