So I've heard they've been scrapped. Seems really disappointing to me, since we'd been waiting this whole time and we've had a few these major characters who represent Musketeers or Arcanists. Seems in poor taste to scrap them as a class.
Musketeers and Arcanist?

Yoshi said over the summer that they'd come around PS3 release. They need to fix the rest of the game first.

Who told you they were scrapped? In the 2.0 documents they mention "new classes and jobs" being released before 2.0.

Ninja, Samurai, Thief, Arcanist, Musketeer, Summoner, Beast Master. 7 Jobs in total. For the 2.0. Just speculation.

well, actually arcanist and musketter should come before 2.0, and aren't speculation D:

10-16-2011, 05:13 AMJennestiaWell they mentioned PS3 release before, which is well into 2013. Least they can add jobs easily, but in the end this is what happens when you need to balance a game around soloer's and partiers as well as people who want absolutely freedom in their classes/jobs.Quote:

Musketeers and Arcanists are already in the game so I highly doubt they'll just delete them

Because they are planned as classes. Look at the Limsa Lominsa guilds.
And Yoshi said the job for Arcanist could be Geomancer -

Famitsu-
Musketeer Guild and Arcanist Guild in Limsa, can we get them as a class or job?
Yoshida: After balancing the class will release the jobs but with job release we will need to look at the part each players take in 8 people party and make sure battle and job balance is made well. We still have lots of thing we need to work on first after job system implementation so we can’t release classes such as Musketeer or Arcanist yet but we have a good settings for them so would like to implement them in the future.
Famitsu: What kind of class is Arcanist?
Iwao: It’s a sorcerer with scientific development. Originally planned as class that uses placement magic; NPC already has the staff that does this.
Yoshida: Placement type or traps for ground target is a concept that will be required even when thinking of PvP. I understand their isn’t much sorcerer but adding a class and making adjustments will be endless so first going to concentrate on adjustments to Conjurer and Thaumaturge.
Iwao: When we release the class we will also release job
Yoshida: Yes
Iwao: Want to expect something like Arcanist to Geomancer (laugh)
Yoshida: It has [FF] feel (laugh) Geomancer will need ground target type actions
Iwao: Environment from weather also
