Thief is just a Subverter and DD. It isn't defined by a weapon. In all Final Fantasy's it can equip at the minimum, Daggers, Swords, Shields, Fist Weapons, and Bows. In FFXI it could equip guns, Throwing Weapons, clubs, and more as well.

true, but the trademark weapon of thief has always been daggers and regardless of lore, in FFXIV, the weapon makes all of the difference. I thought this was obvious, but apparently not.
