Forecast: Ninja with a chance of Samurai?

[Rbstr]

This weapon thing isn't that big of an issue. You can already have 1 and 2 hand blm/whm/thaum/conj weapons. They could have 2-handed gladiators' or "daggerclass" arms that are Katanas. The stats (and lack of offhand in the case of glad/paly) would make it pretty clear which Job was supposed to use it.
The bigger issue is the body skills learned by that class.

The thing about a third tank is that it has to come from a base class that isn't gladiator or marauder because you want the jobs to add type-variety. And I think its easier to turn a tank class into a dps job than the other way around. Having only 5 skills come from the job makes it pretty hard to totally change a class's base usage anyway. Sch/smn work, in large part, because they changed the pets - and that they mixed in a couple healing skills in the class. The others don't currently have much of that.

What if the gunner class is like... A tank type like the leader of the garlean forces(can't think of his name) and we get like... Garlean tech. Maybe guns/cannons like the ones used by the bosses we fought

My only concern would be - which one contains more action? My Monk uses fists, he goes around punching every thing and every one in site with out a care in the world, this is Action.

A ninja might be cool, but is stealth really action packed? How can I truly call my self a man of Action if I await in the shadows for my attack. I believe that they should see me charging full ahead, to know that this man is an action man.

Samurai is alright, but maybe too honorable? Action requires honor, and honor requires action, but can the two really into one coherent mass? Will my sword pierce the heavens as my fists have, or will it only slash away at the wind?

These are important questions Yoshi-P must answer.

Naruto was a ninja of action.

[JeniLinsky]

Eddie Izzard is a transvestite of action.

Naruto was a ninja of action.

I don't know who that is, but I have my doubts.

Eddie Izzard is a transvestite of action.

Okay, but that's not a class.

Just give me a Gunblade class and I'll be happy. Also a Soldier class based on Cloud would be pretty cool.

In both FFVI and FFXIV, Doma seems to have Far Eastern ties, and in both Doma is destroyed.

What I took from this is that I wish SE would have done something more original instead of making XIV fanservicepalooza >.> Sure it's nice every now and then, but over 90% of the game is fanservice from every single other FF lol Even down to the endgame areas.

By every now and then, I mean the classic things of course, like Airships, Chocobos, Cid ( つ ◕_◕ ༽つCID'S TEETH OR RIOT ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ ), Biggs and Wedge etc. But come on, everywhere you turn, there's something they pulled from another FF. Kinda feels like they ran out of ideas and thought "People like fanservice, let's shove it in their face everywhere"


Also, to quote a friend who heard rumors of Yoshi liking the idea of Sam and seeing how that turned out in XI

"Well there goes that game.." lol

More like THF with a chance of NIN.

I don't really care what gets added as long as I never see a blink tank added. *shudder* I still have nightmares about healing ninja's in ff11.
