So the final cut scenes of patch 2.2's story line quests heavily hint on some "new classes" coming to Eorzea. A class I've been wanting to play for a very long time. Problem is, until that class comes out, I'm gonna be playing Warrior until then. Should I save my 12 Atma for my class to be in the future. Or spend it on my warrior ? Will the new class(s) obtain relics in the same manner ? or some new manner ? Must have a response, however vague it is, to see how to proceed with my Atma :O
Hi,
Naoki Yoshida here, I have checked with the development team and we are, unfortunately, not going to be able to add a new class until the first expansion. In addition, we will be slowly upping the drop rate on Atma as we add more and more steps in the Zodiac Weapon system.
Due to the length of time until we plan to release our first expansion, and thus new class, we suggest that you go ahead and use Atma for your Warrior, as they will be much easier to farm when the new classes are released.
Please look forward to it.
Nice try Daeda Fehr ;P if it was a real dev response, your response would be high lighted in red, lol. gg for trying though :3
From a player's standpoint, it could be more beneficial to be patient and cross that bridge when you come to it. Personally, I only intend on getting one of each Atma with the jobs I plan on using the Atma with.
Though in all honesty, about the new classes, I doubt "Thief" will even be a class, per se. Looking at the structure of how classes are thus far, there is not a single class in the game that is modeled after a traditional Final Fantasy class. Some may share names (There were Conjurers in FFIII, which were basically less powerful Summoners, and Gladiators were a secret Job in FFV Advance), but for the most part, they aren't really anything more than catalysts for the actual jobs.
If I were to formulate a theory, I'd say that "Thief" will be a Job rather than a Class, focusing more on stealing and such whereas its counterpart, Ninja, would focus more on powerful DPS. As for the actual class, it would probably be focused on a "Rogue" class or something similar, which would dual-wield daggers and focus on skills related to that form of combat, and perhaps even rival Pugilist in terms of speed, or maybe even have some stealth elements to them. I just can't really see "Thief" being the initial class, especially with how the other classes and jobs are set up.
