a suggest for bard machinist and dancer

I like suggest adding again secondary items

for bard a harp. Yoshi p has state that a bard should be away sing this could useful for bard if the secondary item is harp that has the effect to increase the duration of the song time.

for machinist a tool box we have this could be use to increase time frame of the turrent and the queen pet.

dancer I not sure yet but picture use an item to increase the dancers buff between one partner

DNC i would love other weapons which we had all assumed we would be getting (boomerangs, etc..)

Yeah would love some of these. We have the crafted lvl 80 one that's like a big unfolding three bladed shuriken, one that looks like a gear, but I'd love to get boomerangs etc too.

Gotta love how they advertised Dnc's weapons as throwing weapons to not restrict themselves yet everything has be chakrams or circle bladed

Pretty sure af2 bard weapon is a harp same with the hw relic harp on harp glamor

what if they gave dancer a second weapon of Castanets

with castanets the dancer could join into the performance of the bard. too

also dancer could even get Tamberee

Give Dancers poles because let's be real we've seen the awful glamours.

I'll take some Maracas for DNC please, even if it's only glam, thank you :>

BRD's original Relic weapon also has a harp attached to the bow, and it's arrow quiver is actually a clarinet filled with arrows!

Either way, the game basically handwaves away the use of musical instruments for ease of play - same as why ARC/BRD doesn't need to equip arrows anymore like they did in 1.0, you just have a stock of them to hand always, and you always have a harp on you, it's just 'hidden' away in your bag, presumedly until you need it.

I could have sworn they said we would be getting Fans as weapons. :/
Where my Goddog fans at? The only thing that is fanned is one of the skills.
Filth and liieeess!

I still haven't recovered after learning that dancers won't be using rugs/blankets as weapons like they did in Final Fantasy Tactics.

Nothing can be "too silly" after 1.0 and ARR introduced gun-halberds, gun-fists, and gun-shields. Heavensward gave us magical astrolabes. And now we have the FFVIII gunblade. No barrel? No problem. Cartridges full of magic.

Machinist needs a missile launcher and grenades.

Can't remember that bad memory, but the only restriction Dnc has for weapons is it must have a hole/handle to put our fingers through other than that it really is free for all on what they can look like yet they have stuck with chakrams with the one bladed throwing star.

-Could have Hula hoops as joke weapons
-key chain
-umbrellas
-headphones
-vines
-flower chain
-bones
etc etc there are loads of possiblities for the weapons yet they barely done anything with atm but we'll see going forward they have only been out since 5.0 afterall.

This so much x)

All very stupid ideas I like what you're thinking, however the greater glaring issue and i'm suprised I haven't seen it mentioned... SEPARATE Dancer gear from BARD and Machinist, give dancer it's own gear with it's own aesthetic and theme, stop making us rely on the extremely limited glamour options to make horribly mismatched appearances semi bearable. And yes there is precedence, Dragoon/Lancer gets it's own thematically appropriate gear, Ninja/Rogue get's it's own sets, Dancer is one job in game that Needs it's own identity and appearance, Lazy developers!

No. We do not need another job with its own set of gear just because you don't like the look of ranged DPS gear. There are plenty of glam options to make something that looks good

And introduce the problem of gearing up melee jobs compared to the other roles?
Hell no. If anything, they should get rid of gear limitations like what they have with nin and drg.
It's hard enough to gear alt jobs with the weekly locks as it is.

Yo, now that I think of it I'd love throwing knives for my DNC

Hmm If we are going to go with Off-hands I would just say for Bard the the second equip should be Arrows or a quiver. Add elemental damage,stat damage, stuff like that.

I am not familiar enough with Dancer or Machinist, but I think all dual wield type of DPS should be able to choose the second weapon. One chakram is ice the other is fire?

Ninja- 2 different daggers.

Red Mage- Blade is separate from the orb thing.

Maybe a book with a bookmark or a quill SMN/Scholar?

So dancers (who dance to music) need their own set, but bards (who play music) and machinists (who work with and create machines) are aesthetically similar enough to warrant being kept together?

What? Brd aesthetic had to completely change away from very brd-centric in ARR to accommodate machinists in HW (all the CT 24man ranged sets are pretty bard-y), so now dancers get to join the club too.

Just.
Remove.
Job restrictions.
For glamour.

I'd rather not have off-hands to worry about acquiring.
