Another spec that we want to see!

Just I have been thinking how if we implement spec system to change the role + kit of the job for example:

Monk as Tank
Reaper as Tank

Bard as healer
Dancer as healer

Dark knight as DPS
Gunbreaker as DPS

as I see from trust that Wuk lamat turn to DPS warrior.. do you think this is possible?

I'd absolutely love to have Alisaie's redmage healer job.

I mean i would be shocked if the Literal Berserker (warrior doesnt can DPS) but then again with the amount of heal maybe its closed healer xD

It would be possible if they hyper condensed the absolutely neccessary Tank and Healer cooldowns into a separate role kit you access by taking on the role.

All melee's having the potential to Tank and maybe some kind of mix of casters and ranged that can Heal.

It would be quite a heavy undertakement since it would mean a lof of kit expansion to make current Tank/Healer roles into viable DPS.

I think this is the only way to have spec system with current design

dragoon as tank (spear and shield)
dragoon as a really slow heavy hitting melee (glaive)
dragoon as magical dps (trident and water magic)

Sage as DPS. Let me go Nu Gundam on my foes.

I'd love to go back to Archer and have the class be some kind of Trapper/CC class. Or just a nuker.

This exists already in Variant Dungeons, your two duty actions can hold an action not related to your currently selected job's archetype.

It also exists by way of Logograms in Eureka or Lost Actions in Bozja. However these two have way more options to choose from compared to the Variant Dungeon selection - they still only use your duty action slots though. It's been a while so I may be forgetting if these are actually all that great to use (efficiency be damned) e.g. if you're a DPS intent on trying to tank stuff compared to a tank trying to DPS stuff.

It's possible they could expand on these but the devs must have a certain vision on what they want for regularly scheduled content and/or have a good reason to not go back to cross-class abilities.

but how this could work for healers?

healers are very specific when it comes to abilities
