I would love to see a two handed sword or a scythe and maybe a class with a pet like Puppetmaster, dragoon, or Summoner. I would also love to have some oriental weapons and armor like wakizashi, katana, and maybe some samurai armor. i would settle for some dual wielding at-least I like being able to change to any job or class instantly but the choices don't really intrigue me archer and marauder are really the only 2 dps classes i can stand. gladiator is cool and all but I don't like the fact that I cant use two swords or a two handed sword. I loved the Blue Mage in FFXI the fact that i could beat the hell out of a mob with its own skills was fascinating. The current crafting classes are perfect in my mind its much better then just kneeling down and a crystal appear in front of you as it did in 11 but the lack of magic and melee classes such as the red mage and paladin is simply boring all i really do is run around mining, fishing, and crafting crap because the current classes are impossibly boring.
I've been thinking for awhile on how Square Enix could add new classes w/o having to add a whole new set of weapons for it and I've decided that one of the best ways would be adding a item to the arrow slot or off hand slot that changes your class or job into what ever it is for. Example: equip a 2h staff for conjurer or thaumaturge and equip a orb or jewel in the off hand or arrow slot to turn that class into a summoner or have a one handed sword and equip something in the off hand such as a spell book to turn the class into a red mage.
I may be thinking a little to far ahead but can they atleast give me one class that can dual wield like thief or ninja.
