I really don't know what makes people think that Dragon Knight and Dragoon are different. They are the *same* job that has been translated differently. The Japanese for Dragoon is 竜騎士 which literally translates to Dragon Knight.

I just hope we get one of each archetype(tank/dd/healer) within a reasonable time frame so we don't have an over abundance of said class running around.

Give Thief or Corsair please. ;)

I agree whole-heartedly with this. Just adding more DPS jobs will amplify the problem of the queues as some people who have leveled tanks and all other jobs will want to level the new one only to find... no one is available to tank in the dungeons for them. Adding new jobs at the same time from each role will allow some DPS people to say "Hey, that new tank class sounds awesome" or even 50 main job tanks will level it for a potential new main or a different flavor of tank. Who knows?

speaking to your second point, I have experienced this myself. I started out with PLD and to be frank, got bored of it by ilvl 82. I started levelling war (38) and drg (38) which are both alot of fun. Im not sure where I am going to go from here... but I could either tank moar if new ones get released, or continue DPSing if I want to... more options need to be available for people who are getting burnt out on one role.

I'm wondering if thief will be a starting class that branches off into the ninja and swordmaster disciples. It would be interesting to see the swordmaster resemble the bravely default job, and take on a counter attack, tank role.

Templar as a tank class is often suggested as a 2nd LNC job.

THM 2nd job I'm not sure of at all. I want to see people's ideas.

not sure what to call it, but a healing class would be easy. THM already has the mana management part down with umbral ice. Just needs some heals to cast beyond just physick or cure.

I know about the green mage in ffta2, but i was thinking of a more traditional nature oriented approach since that is what green magic is normally about in other fantasy media. It could focus around stone, aero, water, and even leaf.I would really like to see more water spells since right now there is only fluid aura.
As for geomancer situational attacks that depend on where the target is standing would be pretty hard to implement, probably be even more so than blue mage and it's usual learn skills.
I honestly kind of of wish black mage would get a dark spells since they seem to hardly ever get anything aside from the fire, ice, & lightning spells in ff games aside from a few debuffs.

It looks like they're being more careful with adding new jobs, which is a good thing. XI had a habit of just throwing in 3 new jobs at a time, with no semblance of balance anywhere. But then again the jobs in that game were never balanced properly.

we should start a pation

New content before new jobs. All we have now is coil with a lockout and CT which, while fun at first, has been nothing but a bane since, esp with the horrid drop rate and loot system (just capped tomes on week 4 without seeing mage pants once). For those of us with all 50s that leaves treasure hunts, beastman quests and...um...hmmm, primal farming? No I got all my drops on those weeks ago...hmmm. Yep nothing til next week.

I really don't need another job I cannot gear due to bad loot systems and lock outs. Nor do I want to watch tv while I wait on df to put me in a dungeon so I can lvl up that lets ppl leave or just stand there til they are booted with no penalty so I can sit in df even more. Sure there are fates but I wont touch them since I like to actually know how to play my job when I get to endgame.

Let them bring on the content before we start QQ about only having 8 jobs
