時期については明言できないが、特定の二つのクラスを一定ランクまであげると取得できる、複合ジョブも用意する。たとえば、幻術士と呪術士を両方育てると赤魔導士といった展開もあり得る。
Although the time is unknown, they are planning to have "combined job" which is obtained by two specified class over specified rank. For example, CON + THM = Red Mage.
I know it was only an example that he gave (and not confirmation), but it sounds like they'd save that combination for Red Mage (or some other mage).
We'll see. ;) -

Ok this is cool, i like how the 'basic' jobs start by having 2 classes leveled up.
I like this alot. Curious if those 2 classes required are the only 2 classes whose abilities you can use with the job? Kind of stoaked for the whole run down next week on this. -

I would say that the classes they chose as pre-reqs for jobs are unconventional for an MMO but not lacking logic. WHM for example, sure con/thm would be "conventional" but whats not logical about con healing and glad defending the party making the role of whm. I would say glad has more stake in what a whm's role is then thm does just because it has spells, the only thing thm has that would benefit a whm job is mp which glad has as well in this game.

CON/THM makes less sense than CON/GLA in my opinion.
THM is all about offensive magic and the power of destruction. CNJ is more about life and defensive spells.
There's more synergy between a CON and a GLA than a CON and a THM.
Seems to me like people think of THM automatically just because it's the only other mage class.
Also, same can be said for BLM = THM/PGL. Both THM and PGL utilize elements offensively - one by harnessing powerful spells, while the other through a more physical incarnation. Having a job that is much more about destruction unlocked by a sub class that's all about defense and preservation makes less sense.
I'm sure we'll understand much more about why they went with the setup they did when we are actually doing the job quests. Lots of lore for the jobs to be added no doubt.
