Hints?

Hello fellow warriors of light,

With all the jobs we currently have in the game. We’re there any subtle hints at all about any of the jobs we currently have? I’m trying to keep my fingers crossed for geomancer as the next caster. I can’t recall any hints of the other jobs that came after ARR so I’m turning to my other warriors of lights to pick their brains about this. Give me some hope here.

Thanks,

Geo for next caster!! 7.0!

This world merges geomancer with astrologian, so that's probably out.

Most of the other hints are classes we see garleans using, beastmaster being one of them.

I know but I’m hoping. I think jobs can be a little similar but still have their major differences. So I’m still hoping for geomancer for the next caster.

I dig Geomancer a lot, but I'd like something else for the next caster just because the 3 we have so far are all themed around elemental magics

Geomancer could surely be the one after that, though! :D

didnt they say something like we wouldnt get more final fantasy jobs but rather original ones?

Personaly, i want a class, who is sharing his equipment with the ninja.

Probally simply the fighter.
A one handed sword User without a shield.
Whe have allready multiple sword User. But im missing a sword user like Tidus, Lightning, maybe the one from ff12, or like the one from ff16.
The warrior and maraudore use axes. Cloud/dark knight big two hander. Zydan (ff9) is probally the thieve.
Paladin need his shield for full power.
And Samurai has his own unique sword stil (like Auron from ff10). But looks a little to stiff.

A freestyle one handed swordmen, similary to lancer, is, what whe are missing. Esspecial, when most sword user are tanks.
A fighter would even fit with the ninja equipment

Why do people always seem to pin all of Geomancers identity on one npc in the AST job quests while ignoring the entire Four Lords arc and Swallows Compass?

There are two forms of Geomancy in XIV, Hingan and Yanxian. Hingan is the type tgat was vaguely compared to Astromancy, and Hingan Geomancy has received a fraction of the coverage of Yanxian.

We don't have Quake, Tornado or any offensive water magic though, which Geomancer could emulate.

BLU: Allow me to introduce myself with Protean Wave, Aqua Pull, Aqua Breath, Water Cannon and MALEDICTION OF WATER(Geomancer spell btw)

But yeah I agree with above posters. They've gone and used up Elemental magic way too much. I'd prefer more Light and Dark magic to be implemented.

Because you keep truthbombing the dreams of Geomancer being a DPS when it'll probably be a healer with a different name. And it makes Seraphor sad.

Edit: lolGamefaqs the good old days

If you are the same Firemage from Gamefaqs I hope you are enjoying FFXIV. I don't agree with Firemage on a lot of things but they always seemed pretty cool to me.

Because you've been banned 500 times on the GameFAQs forums I just assumed it was a habit of yours.

And none of them were for actual TOS violations. But hey, you already knew that and chose to attack me for no reason anyway

I agree that elemental magic is overdone and something different would be welcome.

Interestingly, once upon a time, Thaumaturge was Light/Dark and Conjurer was full-elemental. But when jobs were introduced they needed a base class for Black Mage .....so here we are.

I don’t mind if it’s the same elemental. Whm has already moved away from earth, air and water magic as it’s main source of magic. Red mage is the only job that has earth and air magic. So I’m not seeing where it’s being overused. Geomancer can come in with some uniqueness to those elemental. I’m fine if we don’t get it but I’m just saying with all the geomancer references since Stormblood I wouldn’t be surprised if it became our next caster. It’s always been a caster type. Never a healer type job. Now would be the perfect time to implement. Well 7.0 that is.

We have verstone and veraero. The only element that the casters don't have is water.

It'd be pretty cool to have a job that balances between light and dark magic. A judge job perhaps? Where you use scales to swing back and forth between light and dark spells; light spells will tip the scale one way and dark spells will tip it the other way, and the spells can have different effects depending on which way the scale is tipping.

That's too similar with the actual Red mage where you have to keep balance.

the Judge job won't be a caster either (unless SE really want to surprise us) because the most notable of them is Gabranth, a Dual Wielding fighter.

SE really said that say want "original" job. If we are following this literraly then Geomancer is out of the board.

Back before Endwalker, people were suggesting something like an Apothicary, throwing potion into battle for various effect. This was hinted by a little girl inside Cristarium during the Main quest, where she said that she want to help people with her potion while fighting.

Getting an "object" based class would be original, not many games have one. Of course, Machinist can be thrown inside this category because he has various weapon now, like the drill, chainsaw and anchor (fired by different end on the same device), a Shotgun or even a Sniper. He even use a wrench in one of his skill.

I don't think anyone was suspecting the sage to have 4 flying magical laser-firing wand as a weapon, or that the Reaper will actually come to the game at some point. I don't know for the sage, but the reaper didn't get any hints whatsoever inside the game before Endwalker cames out.

So this time around, I guess this will be the same, we won't get a hint at all unless something big happens.

I don't think I'd want that. I like holy/light visual effects but I'm getting tired of seeing it when we have White Mage, Paladin, Red Mage and argurably both Astrologian and Sage all using holy/light looking magic.

Say what. I have not been on the 14 gfaq board in years. Must be missing some fun stuff.

i mean there already was a chemist/apoghicary in the thaumaturg class quest line. in quest lvl 15 or 20 he figths with us as a healer. he uses 'aqua vitae' as a basic heal. and i think the skill reappeared later again. dont remember where though.
