I've played my fair share of Final Fantasy games but I'm a little stumped as to what other jobs in the future can/will be Tanks.
Example:
Dark Knight could be a tank(ugh I hope not, dps!)
Ninja could be a tank(again a ninja should not be tanking, thats just silly)
What other tank jobs could come to XIV?

An evasion-style tank would be pretty cool, maybe not necessarily an Utsusemi-style, but a tank with high evasion. Though I don't imagine that would scale well tanking groups of trash or big bosses like Titan HM.

If they added DRK it would have to be tank, the problem with making it dps is that everyone will want to play it just for being dark knight alone, add that with dps (the most popular role) and you get even more issues to add to the duty finder queues. As for a new tanking job, well and interesting one i heard someone bring up was Templar, based off the job from FFTA it could be a spear wielding tank.

i guess we will see more "arcanist" classes, that have multi role job
DRK can be both tank and dps with the job system -
