Also the job Conjurer currently is functions more like Scholar from FFXI. I don't think we can just tack a classic name on it if it doesn't fit the bill.

Did you enjoy all the fun ways of showing emphasis that don't involve Caps Locks, thus potentially misconstruing the meaning of your sentence?

The Classes in XIV are generic because all they are supposed to be is your weapon. Gladiator = Sword, Pugilist = Knuckles, Marauder = Axe, Archer = Bows, Lancer = Lance, Conjurer = Circle AOE, Thaumaturge = Cone AOE.

You learn skills by using weapons then mix and match the skills together to make up your own Character not a class or job.

They already said they will be implementing the Classic FF Jobs to instill a sense of Role for players should they chose. And make it easy for other players to identify that "Hey that Gladiator is a Thief, not a Paladin."
