I don't think that's actually 'Scholar', but just a depiction of Arcanist (note the book held in her hands which has been confirmed already to be ACN's weapon).

That pic has already caused a major stir on another certain forum which I won't go into, but I think it's safe to say that is not a sneak peak of a hypothetical Scholar class being added into the game.

I feel like if they had a card like SCH in their hand, they would have played it already. That being said, I really can't get over how much that is definitely a picture of a SCH. It might not mean anything, but it is undeniably a picture of a SCH.

I'm really hoping it means something. Scholar was one of my favorite classes to play in XI and I'd love to see an incarnation of it in XIV.

I don't know, I rather don't really care as much about whats up front then whats in the background.

The problem is that Arcanist is not a job, and only jobs are depicted in this wheel.

Exactly. Unless it's disproved later, it's pretty much inferred that the Summoner job (which is shown at about 9 o'clock on the wheel) is derived from the Arcanist class (which wouldn't be represented here).

I'll cautiously keep my hopes up that Ms. 3 o'Clock really is a Scholar, and that this is what fulfills Yoshi's mention of rounding out mage-type jobs in ARR.

yeah, and they always said that multiple jobs will use the same base-class... still it feels strange

oh ok I got it.... Scholar is Win8 exclusive XD

Multi jobs from one class is a stupid idea IMO, I'd hate to get a new job and then find out that it's already at 50. And then there's class traits; GLA for example has very tanky traits, so any other job that comes off it will -have- to be a tank. Doesn't really do much for variety.

If it's not ACN then I'm going to guess at Arithmetician > Scholar, ACNs use Grimoires ("apparently", wouldn't be surprised if SE lied to confuzzle us and it's actually a SCH weapon this whole time), or the SCH books could be called something different, like an encylopedia or w/e.

I hope it is Scholar, we need another healer; hopefully support-combo
