SE it's time for A new Job Please. (Tank)

[Zakalwe]

I fear that this community will take predictable damage that can be calculated in our actions over not having to heal an evasive tank that could get 1 shot with slight error ratio...

An evasion tank with a 99% chance to evade is still a broken tank 1 out of every 100 hits.

Uh, no. They mention Maelstrom because something is going to get a content update related to Maelstrom.

Leviathan is not related to Maelstrom. He was mentioned along side Maelstrom as confirmed material for the update and then the key word for the entire content update is Maelstrom. Leviathan has nothing to do with the key word itself. The Key word is Maelstrom because we're getting something new in Limsa Lominsa that is not related to Leviathan.

i'm amazed by yourself my dear sir.

you can find the definition of Maelstrom: there

other point, leviathan is not just a side thing... it's by far, a more powerfull primordial than titan, ifrit or garuda. if you remember the quest when you look about the danger that the city states must face. they clearly states that the day or leviathan will appear... it will be terrible far more than titan.

more important, like the definition said:
2. a restless, disordered, or tumultuous state of affairs

and that fit what louisoix said:


that clearly point the area of coerthas

finally, i highly doubt that the dev will improve only one grand company, if they add stuff to the grand company all of them will receive the same fair treatement.

ps: it's nice to see sign where you have no sign... recall me the one saying the end of the world was for 2012...

Myself? I'm just looking forward to musketeer.
So far we've gota tank who can DPS (warrior) and a tank who can heal (paladin). All we need now is a tank-tank :P i'd like to see something more demonic-looking.

Well Maelstrom is the theme of 2.2 Update which means the majority of the content will be related to the word Maelstrom.

So far we have

-Leviathan (normal, hard, and extreme) battle which may take place in a place called the Maelstrom

- Main storyline quest in 2.2 focusing more into Lisma Lominsa area and the Maelstrom GC playing a major role in 2.2 storyline. After all they are the Navy GC of this game and will most likely be the ones who help us reach the location where Leviathan is located. We also most likely will finally conclude the story of 1.0 Lisma Lominsa due to the question 1.0 Lisma lominsa story left behind involving the legendary treasue of the Sea Serpent and the mysterious disappearance of the 1.0 LL Story antagonist Travanchet.



- New Beast Tribe factions which are Kobalts and Sahagin. Both are related to Maelstrom because they are the Beast Tribes of Lisma Lominsa.

There is most likely more to be revealed later but these are the currently known content relating to 2.2 main theme being Maelstrom.

They took your Jimmie well damn I would be pissed too if somebody stole my Jimmie.

Musketeer won't be the job, it will be the class. their guild has existed since 1.0 and is home to the barracudas, Limsa Lominsa's navel defense force.

The job i suppose will be corsair, or gunslinger or something along those lines.

You know that for a fact with evidence?

Or just guessing. Theres been mention of a THF base class in an interview with NIN being a job from it. Musketeer could easily by ARC/THF job.

Hell no. I run commando XD

Its just easy with the breezey~

There is a Musketeer Guild in Limsa Lominsa in the same place as the Marauder's Guild. If you're asking if Musketeer is the name of the class rather than evidence that it could be a class, that remains to be seen, but the Guild in Limsa Lominsa is, i believe, called the Musketeer's Guild. Guilds only exist for Classes as far as I've seen since the game came out so Musketeer having a guild means its a base class and not a Job.

Thief was mentioned but mostly as musing. There is want to add it, both from players and from the current director, but above, just stating that its wanted, nothing is said about it being implemented yet. Same for Ninja. They're both supposed to be the new Scout type class set or so I'm seeing from the interviews as well, but that class type doesn't exist yet either.

I gotta ask how a Scout would be different from a DPS. Wouldn't their main role be to cause damage?


After going back to the Coral Tower, i noticed a lot of Yellow Jackets are gun class users...even their Commodore has a gun on his hip.

Agreed 2.3 may be twin adders, 2.4 may be Immortal Flames (or the other way round),

First 2 lines could be something with the herald of a new era which happened already which has awoken greater enemies or more likely that the Ascians are stepping up their campaign. We the players are the lances of light maybe?. Splendor dances with shades Id say is the splendor of ishgard dealing with Ascians. Maybe the last two lines are about those Ishgardians not being influenced (or controlled by the Ascians) warring against those who are over the fields of Coerthas,
