Post EW Poll: Which type of weapon(s) would you like to see added to XIV?

Link to Poll

Just a poll for fun. (((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o)))
I've done this poll post HW and post ShB but sadly the polls were lost due to issues with the polling website. However I do have results saved for both of them and will post them down below.

Also, I'm aware that Scepters and Wands are both currently in the game but they are nonexistent post level 50, so I feel they're fair game. (>w>) ~ ♥

Scythes are already a thing with RPR no?

"Bags" sounds funny. Reminds me of Saeko in Yakuza: Like a Dragon.

since replying seems fine, I chose a chainsword/whip, and other instruments I forget.<but nothing that seems expected to fit other roles like "Nun", or tools.

I'm surprised no potions or toxins mentioned.<but not in a alc way, more like a ranger/scout/rogue.., Ala that famous Silver Ranked Slayer. but that's just me.., maybe even that special throwable blade of theirs.>

I tend to prefer more down to earth weaponry, which I think they're running out of?

In that regard, one-handed axes, both one and two-handed maces are something they could still add, as are dual swords, which they could combine with/into a double-ended polearm (akin to these used by FFXII Judges), for added novelty.

Me personally, I'm a huge sucker for swords, but I doubt we're getting any more sword Jobs (aside from the aforementioned dual swords, perhaps?)

Thinking of the roles that are due new jobs, I'd like to see:
Scouting: Dual-bladed weapons, like Zidane's 'thief swords' or Gabranth's weapon.
Aiming: Whips or Blitzballs
Casting: Bell (geomancer)
