Musketeer Prior to 2.0?

Would be nice to end the last arc as a full fledged Pirate of the Maelstrom, shooting as we make our way to Davy Jones locker, IMO.






Yar!

LOL

Not a chance.

Well, It would seem there's quite a few Surprises coming in 1.23 that Yoshi-P didn't want to spoil.... Level Cap rise? Musketeer? Arcanist? New Summon battle? He's hiding alot of stuff.. because what he said in the letter.. we kinda already knew about it. except for NM battles and stuff...

I doubt any of that makes it in, I think he is hush hush so as not to spoil the story which will dramaticaly change the world remember 1.23 is the end of the 7th umbral era and dalamud will show its true face. New classes/jobs would be perfect for 2.0 as new heroes will emerge from the cataclysm ending the 7th umbral era.

I would murder someone for musketeer early.

MURDER.

So I fully support this thread, even if it's very unlikely it'll happen.

Yeah, not happening. I see the surprises as fights, nm's and storyline, not new classes/jobs.

No, just realistic. Adding a job class now would mean a lot of new equipment and abilities to balance, new quests to introduce, etc.

The main focus now is getting 2.0 ready to be shipped and finishing off the Seventh Umbral Era content.

Not like I have my hopes up or anything. I just think it would be awesome, Don't you?

You never know what SE is hiding muahahahaha

I highly doubt it would happen, people have enough problems allowing someone go to content as anything but BRD/WAR/BLM, we have other issues to deal with outside of mechanics first lol.

Why bother balancing in new jobs when 2.0 is so soon?

I want Musketeer badly also. I can see it "possibly" coming to 2.0. Don't even know if new jobs will be added in once it is released yet. I do hope so. Been dying to play Musketeer or Thief.

I wouldn't mind adding Rum chasing to that list, no pirate is complete without his/her reserve!

I want my gun back. They confiscated it and now I don't know what they're doing with it. :(

i would have a musket if some asshat sergeant didn't snatch it from me before i left my trance sequence.

Biggest tease in game. Sometimes I watch that cutscene over and over, just to see what it's like. Sigh...

If we're going to get a new magic class first..I hope it's FFXI's Geomancer...<3 the technical nature of it (so far.)

Would be nice, but im happy to wait till 2.0 so they dont mess it up

Makes you wonder if they are going to squeeze Titan into .23 when you guys mention his secrecy.
I doubt he will do a job though for aforementioned reasons. Maybe something showing a Muskateer in combat so we can get an idea of whats to come, maybe?

If they put it in they better have its attached job out with it the same day.

I'm pretty sure there isn't going to be any major additions to patch 1.23 that we haven't been told about at some point in the past. I think Yoshi's omitting of information was to not spoil the storyline for people who hadn't read his earlier letters. We've known for a year that we would be fighting the Legatus in the final battle that would be added in 1.23. Unless that has changed, pretty sure thats what Yoshida is attempting to hide.

Arcanist -> Geomancer
I hope it

Hiding the Legatus battle is a good move. I doubt we'll see new classes until 2.0/beta at the earliest. It's fun to think about I guess, and whatever it is they already know anyway. New classes take months of planning so while it ms a secret to us, the devs already know what is in store in that arena.

Thf yes plz

if they don't add job traits in 2.0 thief would see very little use.

Just because it was a TH whore in XI it doesn't mean it should be the same in here if they implement it, don't you think?

No you see, writing the word "thief" into your game code automatically makes it impossible to add strong weapons for it.

ill gladly be a TH whore, it pretty much Guarantees entry to primal and coffer party's and its a class i actually like.

then again i like dragoon too, its too bad your current choices are melded Bard, BLM,Warrior and WHM. inb4 Player choices, there's a reason that setup is the most dominant and its got nothing to do with Tom, Dick, Harry ,Bob, John, Charles, Jacob and Andy wanting that setup and everything to do with wanting an instawin.

With how they will set up loot tables in 2.0, it may be awkward to fit Treasure Hunter in there. I wouldn't be surprised if something like more gil dropped from mobs when a Thief is in the party.

Could also have a trait that boosts the quality of the drop items, getting more +1s.
