Puppetmaster :)

Hello everyone.I know many ppl( specially me :P ) want see puppetmaster in FFXIV ARR . And of course i know we will not see puppetmaster untill version 3.0 or even later...But will we see puppetmaster at all?And how will it be? I asume Puppetmater will be come from pugilist,second job of pugilist...What you guys are thinking about this?

I'd love to see it. I really do miss my Koumei.

It would be nice though if they branched it from a different class. Give me some whips and make me a performer!

Hmm Whips ha?Well whip will have flayer class and which be come beast master as job...But whipe for pupetmaster i think is not good idea...i mean it making almost no sence...bu what about chakram?that would be nice...But again i think and prefer Puppetmaster as second job of pugilist :P

From what i saw of the PUP in FF11, it's going to need its own base class to start from. Otherwise you're just a Monk without Dragon Kick/Demolish. That and the pet would feel rather shoehorned in and out of place, given the story of the PGL. I just dont see how PUPs would come from a Class dedicated to martial arts. Now, Using PGL as its Secondary Class to get the PUP job after a base class of say ... Machinist, that i could get behind.

I'm keen to see the class also. Pretty sure we get Musketeer next though.

Craftable Puppets. Wanted this since XI, still want it now.

Craftable VANITY puppets, hells yes. I think Crafting is an excellent way to do vanity, statless pieces that are applied to gear to spruce em up. if a GSM or future craft job could craft different kinds of looks for the puppets, there'd be a market for that.

Pugilist also leading to Puppetmaster wouldn't be that out of place considering the GSM guild is where the Mammets are and it's in the same city. Monk's story doesn't have much in common with Pugilist either, they simply use the same combat style and weapons.

Psh, give them something actually useful to do. Just like any other weapon, make them available as quest rewards/drops also. There could be an Ifrit Puppet, a Garuda one, a Relic one, etc but also craftable ones. Make the augmentations droppable and craftable too. CRP could make a reinforced crossbow for the RNG puppet, GSM an auto-feeder, ARM could make armour plating for the Tank puppet, BSM a sword-arm, ALC some kind of regen module.

Heck, you could make the requirements 30 MNK, 15 ALC/GSM :)

I would definitely be excited about this. Unless SE decides to short change it like they did the SMN class here in XIV...

I still say they need whips. If only to placate my kinky side...

Hmm, whips.. give that to dancer :3

But Puppetmaster... Magitech Engineer... Mechanic...

Sword... gun... gunblade..

mechanic... ranged.. fixing... gun.. wrench...

Gun-Wrench!!!

No, Monk is an extension of Pugilist. It builds on the flavor of the base class. The same with Dragoons and Paladins. I can't see any reason for a class to have built up all that martial skill, to suddenly start using puppets to fight with .. makes no sense. And if they DID come frrm PGL, you'd be a Monk without Dragon Kick/Demolish, still relying on Greased Lightning stacks to do anything.
Better to make it its own class, with lore and flavor all of its own.
I can definitely see it starting in Ul'dah though.

If we ever did get a tech style job building from Pugilist, it'd damn well better be whatever the hell Livia is.
