So what roles will classic FF jobs have? My ideas plus yours and more

I did some theory on making some new classes as well, but the one thing I think is actually going to be in will be Muskateer, and it will hopefully branch to a ranged DD and a tank with Gunblades!!!

Musketeer is gonna be a ranged DD by definition, since the class will use guns. Gunblades I'm not so sure would go to Musketeer, but I do remember seeing some post where Yoshi-P liked the idea of a gunblade class, so you never know.

Hopefully, the Musketeer sees the return of the Corsair. They use guns, they're pirate themed (fits perfect for Limsa), and they're the Gambler job class without being explicitly called a gambler (SE mentioned something about this back when COR was first released in XI, something about how gambling was bad and they didn't want it explicitly in their game or something). If anything, they should probably be a lot like how BRD is now: all your ranged DD stuff comes from the class itself while the job (COR in this case) gives all your gambling abilities, like dice rolls or something. Would probably be too hard and too distracting to put slots in as an ability (seriously, how many people would eat a landslide because they were trying to get a good slots match while in Titan HM).
