death knight???

If you're going to be a snarky jerk to people, you should probably get your facts right before you do so.

(It was 4, not 6.)

Snarky Jerk? My mistake for typing VI instead of IV. Please, please forgive me! D:

Not sure why there is so much hostility here today, even more than usual. To the OP and anyone else in this thread I wasn't trying to be an @sshat or anything, I would just prefer to keep FF as far away from WoW as possible, even if it is just a misunderstanding. Dark Knights are awesome, Death Knights are not. :P

Warrior will probably become a Dark Knight in the future with a BLM/THM requirement. So a 50 warrior with a 15 thm just puts on a crystal and poof their a dark knight that wields a scythe and casts dark magic like Bio, Blood Bath, HP leeching stuff, and melee buffs.

This does seem to be the most logical way they'd be implemented, however no job crystal has changed your weapon yet, so it remains to be seen if they would be using Scythes or not. They'll most likely be spawned from Marauder, Lancer, or maybe even Glad, depending what they wanna do with the class.

You all know damn well the guy meant Dark Knight.
Folk are so quick to jump on others.

Actually with all the derpy WoW terminology we see used around here one can never be too sure >.>

Yeah I'm not sure how they will implement dark knight if it uses a scythe. It would have to be a new base job that branches into other things. Or they could make it so you can't equip the Scythe until you've equiped the sole stone for a darknight and still base it off warrior.

Or they could make it so Warrior's can use 2h axes and Scythes but allt he scythes will have DPS stats.

Dark Knight's "primary" was always a Greatsword. The iconic weapons Deathbringer/Chaosbringer were greatswords. So we can all safely assume that DRK will use greatswords.

Only in 11 were they 2 hand weapon users. FF3, FF4, Tactics, etc. Dark Knight always has used one handed.

Still, wrong game.

In all FF series, only FF11 has Dark Knight and they have nothing to do with Paladin.

FFIII (JP FF3) & FFIV & FFT(PSP) & FFTA & FFX-2 (JP references as Dark Knight) & FFXI

- Going bit extreme -
FFDissidia Cecil starts off as Dark Knight
FF Legends
FF Brigade
Chocobo's Dungeon

Don't forget Leon from FFII (JP).

Ah true, they refrence Leon as Dark Knight in JP after he gets taken away /nod

[Orophin]

There's nothing from a system standpoint that is stopping SE from giving jobs their own weapon type. Right now if you equip any job specific weapons it automatically turns your job crystal on. So really, there's nothing stopping them from introducing a Great Sword or Scythe weapon that's DRK only and still having the job branch from Gladiator or Marauder.

I'd actually encourage SE to break this mold for the future.
