It will be possible to have Thordan too for the tank ?
I think of Dark Knight since it's a job from Heavensward, in Ishgard and it correspond to Thordan himself.

Hmm, I didn't even think about Thordan being in the mix. I'm not we'll see them use the new HW primals for these sets, though, as the ARR primals cover the normal number of armor sets we get. I'd much prefer a Thordan or Bismarck-themed set to a King Mog one, though.
This is what i think for all the armors set :
Paladin --> Ultima (Gaius)
Guerrier --> Alexander
Dark Knight --> Thordan
White Mage --> Phoenix
Scholar --> Mog
Astromancian --> Bismarck
Dragoon --> Garuda
Monk --> Ifrit
Ninja --> Ramuh
Bard --> Leviathan
Machinist --> Ravana
Black Mage --> Shiva
Summoner --> Bahamut
Not a bad prediction. Though, it has been confirmed Leviathan is Ninja not Bard.
Here is mine if they are job specific:
Paladin --> Odin
Warrior--> Titan
Dark Knight --> Thordan
White Mage --> Moogle
Scholar --> Phoenix
Astrologian --> Bismarck
Dragoon --> Garuda
Monk --> Ifrit
Ninja --> Leviathan
Bard --> Ramuh
Machinist --> Ravana
Black Mage --> Shiva
Summoner --> Bahamut
Here is mine if they are role specific:
Tank --> Titan
Healer --> Moogle (sad face)
Dragoon --> Garuda
Ninja --> Leviathan
Monk --> Ifrit
Bard/Machinist --> Ramuh
Caster --> Shiva
They'll be role specific. Last tome set was Job specific because it was AF gear. This is just Primal themed/inspired gear, so it will be role specific, like all the previous tome sets (outside of Myth) were.
Mog makes the most sense for healers because he's the only Primal/Primal-like-construct-thing that heals during his fight, mainly his subordinates. This reflects healer's relationship with the rest of the party very well, King and subordinates. :-D
Tanks will get Titan as punishment for thinking they are the king. :-D
And Ranged will get Ramuh because they need beards. :-D
Edit
To expand:
MNKs got Ifrit because they are hotheads, DRGs got Garuda because they are on the floor all the time, so the only place they can go is up, NINs got Leviathan because they are all slimeballs who don't use Goad enough, and Casters got Shiva because SE thinks they're all ice-princess for not talking during parties but their actually just bots. :-D
Well, it's conjurer more specifically, going by that theory, I think.
The role-specific gear is normally themed for/after the base classes, rather than the actual Jobs. I'd imagine healer's set will most likely be one of the two Gridania primals because ACN goes on caster gear rather than SCH gear, and AST doesn't have a base class that it's associated with. The Titan set would then be Limsa via Marauder.
The only odd one out is ACN/THM in terms of the base class's city state matching the primal (but Ishgard also doesn't have any base classes, so Shiva was going to be an odd one out either way, I suppose).
