What kinda GM was this?

[Minidrax]

I've seen this guy on Istory, i suddenly got boosts from him, as other pt members as other ppl, randomly. Those were the boosts we got:
- Quick 10min
- Hp boost 10 min (normally 1300, had 1600)
- Mp boost 10 min
- another one i forgot

That person talked German and, if i understood well (i'm speaking dutch, so pretty close to German), he was talking about the end of the world...His gear when checked him was lvl 1 gear, GLAD. But he looked like an THM.

To me, this wasn't a GM.

It's the symbol next to it and iirc in XI GM gear was also level 1.

he just forgot to hide himself

I've seen him. He's a mysterious Arcanist giving out free buffs and ominous dooms-day prophesies. First time I ran across him, I had just ported into Uldah and saw the GM symbol. I immediately ran over, hoping to grab a screenshot of the nifty shiny red armor, only to notice--he's not really a GM! And then he looked right at me and spoke a spooky message! He never repeated it for anyone else that ended up gathering around though. He did give all surrounding people some really nifty buffs though, before he vanished into thin air.

If you read "The Last Word" on the lodestone, you hear mention of this guy; and if you ever read the mysterious stone placard that Yoshi-P posted up very early in his new reign; this mystery Arcanist quotes a bit from it.

That and the Deaspected crystals going around... Something huge is going to happen--possibly in Grid--and I am SO excited! I LOVE the way SE is pulling the strings on this one.

Sounds like they are gearing up for something big. Battle patch to include the archanist job maybe? Personally I find that a bit presumptuos, but we can't just ignore that Archanist staff sitting on his back.

If you play Alchemist you would have seen that weapon on a NPC before as well claiming to be from the Archanist guild. If anything we might be getting new story events soon.

I take that as a sign they are keeping the other classes instead of scrapping them.

I think it was stated by Yoshi-P that the armory system and the job system work independently from one another. I wouldn't doubt its similar to the Support job system we see in ffxi, and each weapon class(Gld, Thm, etc..) are played as support roles for actual jobs such as warrior, thf, mnk ect. but IDK just a guess.
I am just excited to see where this new content is going ^^

So that ugly thing is the arcanist weapon..? Just another staff... and I thought we would have gotten combat scythes.. ):

This guy just popped up in besaid at Horizon, Managed to get 4 mins of fraps, uploading to youtube.

He spoke in French, last line English

And of course the most vital bit of information: its raining.

Doesn't actually look like a normal staff. I think it kinda looks like an elongated pole with a furnace on the end of it, possibly archanist use alchemy related items inside there furnace to produce dark incantations lol
