    If DRK doesn't go 2H (whether Greatsword or Scythe) then EVERYONE is going to be rioting the forums at that fail of what I have stated above: throwing the job under the bus. DRK isn't even a job on my top 5 jobs I'm hoping to see, but to see a DRK holding a Sword and Shield for DPS is just unacceptable to me. Sure you can DPS with that setup. It's very easy to rewrite stats so that GLA attacks can do dmg with a new job, but when you turn the iconic DRK into something so different people are going to be very angry when they expect to roll on "DRK" and get handed a Tank or a 1H DPS.

    If we want every job to be described the way it SHOULD be and NEVER have the wpn choice of the class changing, then the armory system is pointless. SE will only be creating classes with 1 job. It's either add new wpns for jobs coming off certain classes or scrap classes entirely. SE is going to run into lots of issues trying to do so otherwise. They will either have a fail system or very angry customers.
