Time Mage, Geomancer, Dark Knight, Templar, Berserker proposals

[Gamemako]

I would love to see these jobs included in XIV from existing classes so they also have 2 jobs each much like ACN does. Here are some of my ideas:

Some interesting ideas, but not mechanically sound. Time Mage is interesting until you realize that it's a gimped debuffer whose skillset is at war with itself. Nobody in his right mind would take that. You need to make use of the Astral/Umbral mechanic, not fight it. Put debuffs on Umbral cycles and buffs on Astral cycles, for example. Templar looks like a tank... ish, but wouldn't be able to tank at all (it would make WAR look positively boss by comparison). Your Berserker is just another DD job from a DD class with another DD job -- MNK is actually more capable of debuffing than your concept, meaning you seriously have two jobs with the same role and mostly the same abilities.
