Thief, we want it!

[silentwindfr]

Well if someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm sure I did read something "official" on the Beta forums(ARR) for Musketeer, but like I said, I wouldn't have a clue where to find it here sorry >.<;

never, in the beta, they have always said that for now, musketeer is not a priority, that the official statement. we will not see it in the first new class added sorry.


actually the message about class are this:
from live letter 5 from june.

Q: Can you give us any information about possible new classes or jobs like thief, ninja, samurai, or musketeer?
A: We definitely want to add more classes in future patches. For melee classes, I believe scout-type classes are somewhat lacking. By this I mean classes that can move around stealthily and attack from behind or steal items from monsters. The lack of magic classes needs to be addressed as well. We've received requests for ninja and samurai, especially from overseas, but we can't give out any specifics yet. Rest assured that new classes are definitely coming.

about musketeer it's this:
from live letter number 7

Q: Is there any new information on musketeer?
A: Nope!

about the dark knight it's used by yoshida in an interview when talking about the thing they can do about adding new jobs. there:

• The Secrets of Eorzea (SOE)

Will you make the second jobs very different from their class or first job? For example, the Dark Knight is a very aggressive job and since you seem to want it to become the second Gladiator job (This has never been confirmed but since Yoshi-P always uses it as an example, you never know... ), don't you think Gladiator's abilities are in contradiction with his style?

• Naoki Yoshida (NY):

I see what you mean. We created the system, but we do not necessarily need to follow it all the time. For example, let’s say that the Dark Knight is the second Gladiator job (attention, it is still not a confirmation), when you get its job stone at level 30, all acquired Gladiator skills will certainly be modified to better fit the image of the Dark Knight.

It was just to give an example to explain that we are not going to destroy how players consider different classes / jobs. It could be an interesting way to introduce future classes / jobs. We will consider your concerns on this issue, rest assured.
This should make things more interesting, don't you think?

people a mixing a lot of information a bit like some was thinking pvp and housing was meant to be there at the release... when is not.

ps: a lot of information from the beta have been loose, it's sad but true...
pss: you will not that while the live letter 5, he didn't talk of the musketeer because actually ranged class are not the priority.
