Disciple of Arts...my idea

Ok well maybe it's not my idea, but I haven't seen anything else posted about it, so here it goes...

I was lying in my bed thinking of what other classes they could add, of course the usual DoWs and DoMs popped into my head, but then I thought, what about Disciples of Arts?!?

Right now I'm sure there are quite a few who have private chambers, and soon people will have their own private housing. So why not spice it up with some entertainment? You could have a Painter, Musician, and Author. It would be similar to DoH, but you could create things like art to hang on walls, create new BG music for your room (classic FF songs would be awesome for this) or write short stories that fit into the Lore of FF14.
That was my idea, thoughts?

Cute idea :)

That is a "crafting" class I would really enjoy.

If anyone here has played the original two star ocean games, they had really awesome character benefits for crafting when you used the Compose, Draw, and Write abilities. Disciple of the arts could be supplemental to crafting as an alternative to upping raw stats on gear.

I'd like this idea A LOT, I'd also like a Musical idea.
Maybe form a band on the game and use your controller or keyboard keys
to hit notes or just compose your own music. Can have
lots of different instruments and stuff too. It'll be super fun! :eek:

Dude, this is pretty cool. I would totally get into this!

waste of resources, focus on more endgame raid content besides coil.

Both Crystal Towers are "endgame" and are both listed in raids section of duty finder. EX Ptimals are are also "endgame," it's just no one does them as endgame and focus only on coil as the only endgame.

This would be great fun ^_^

*Starts putting together a sculpture far greater than any of the statues around Eorzea: a bust of her chobo!*

But ofc allowing ppl to paint, draw, etc things would eventually get out of hand and would just be another headache for ppl on the forums and the mods.
Controversy would start to arise from fellow DoA ppl ( refer to draw your character thread )
Went from harmless fun pics of ppl -> to sexy and more suggestive themes-> to nudes -> to commissions -> to calling out ppl for copying pics and calling it their own.
Such a fun topic turned into something nasty lol.
Ppl ruin things for others cuz they can, thts y SE can't give us interesting non related button mashing things.

I kinda like the idea! A more musically inclined class would be fun to play.

Shame BRD couldn't be like this :( It's an archer who thinks they are a good singer because they can hum and remember a handful of choruses. Where are the artistes with pride in their music..?!

Creativity? Customization?
Yes.

Now as for my two cents worth on this topic, not a bad idea and I like it alot but I highly doubt SE will jump on it.

Sounds fun, but ultimately I'd rather they spend time on other types of content. This seems like fluff.

I had a similar idea, the painter could use a tool to capture a screenshot, like a camera (but not a camera), there would be a very flexible pan/zoom/crop/rotate screen shot ability, then an animation of the character painting it. Carpenters would make frames.

A sculptor could do similar but with clay, stone, or metal, but the subject would have to be a PC or NPC. If it is a 2 or 3 star of a NPC (behemoth or Odin, or some S rank, or City State Leader, etc.), it might need to be like the sight seeing log, where you capture them in a certain stance, by a certain feature or landmark.


Performing arts don't seem that likely
