REAPER(THE DK WE ALL WANTED)

So many are a oil upset on the fact the Drk does not a syth for a weapon and it's lacking a drain and darks spells while others including myself want to se mecromancer why not add a job that does both. Use a syth drains the for and summon undead minions. Have the job have abilities than benefits when both friend and foes dies

What... .

Sorry stupid correct in the phone. We need a job with a sythe as a weapon and I would like a necromancer why not have a job that can cast drain spells and dark spells and summons undead minions

i sorry i not fond of the undead minions that sound like something zoriak followers would do

We know that necromancy is used. If I recall in the BLM story line he did say there is a coven in the far east that use it. And wasn't the sister city of ulda was using necromancy to increase army numbers

question what happen to them. are they still there, when one open themself up to use darker magic you leave your self exposed, i won't be supprise if the entire city ether wipe out or the necromancer became servants of zoriak

didn't you notice that enemy of warrior light happen to be souls that move for body to body if they need be

I'd rather have the Dervish from Guild Wars: Nightfall.

The aoe melee specialist!

It won't happen - for one thing, scythes are actually already in FFXIV, but not as a weapon, they're a farming tool and thus used accordingly by BTN. Because of that, you won't see scythes as a weapon type in the game.

Secondly, although necromancy (as in, 'raising the dead') does exist narrative wise in FFXIV, it's regarded as a strict taboo, an abomination by anyone with even a modicum of sense (even the Hildibrand quest line, which is tongue and cheek and takes liberties with the story, even regarded the creation of undead as a crime with those who use it sent to prison at the very least).

Although a lot of Jobs were formerly 'taboo' as well, I think there is a strict line drawn between what is considered acceptable for the Warrior of Light to make use of and what is forbidden to us because it contradicts our very nature. DRK is already skating on that line, and a hypothetical Necromancer Job would be well and truly past it.

So yeah, I really don't see this sort of concept ever becoming a Job in game.

I don't remember if there was anything said in the true story canon, but in HILDIBRAND's it was actually Ul'dah that made the zombie-ing stuff. Then like others said, necromancy is basically against the laws of nature and normal/sane men.

Labeled differently, though. WAR is specifically "Axe" while BTN is specifically "Hatchet"(Aside from Axe of the Luminari). Technicalities on the name yes, but it's the same thing between NIN Knives/Daggers and PLD's Swords.
