    I think it would be neat if they came out with something like a "Tamer" as a class that can branch out into jobs like Beast Master and Blue Mage. The weapon can be a sort of "Whip" that Tamers use to subdue and pacify monsters as pets.

    Much like Arcanists, when the Tamer reaches a certain level they can choose to either play Beast Master and retain their pet, or they can choose to be a Blue Mage and lose their pet but gain access to abilities unique to certain monsters untamable by the Beast Master like Malboros, or tonberries. lol

    Since Yoshi wants a physical class and a mage class he could effectively kill two birds with one stone. Beast Master could focus on more physical type pet abilities that rely on your pet to unleash max close-ranged damage, and Blue Mage could rely more on it's spell pool with magic that is unattainable by other mage classes like Mighty Guard, Bad Breath, and Degenerator. It could also play the role as a support DD much like Bards do, with the ability to unleash potent magic damage while also being able to buff and support the party. (That way the bards won't be alone. >.<) It would make sense to some degree because both jobs are closely related to monsters and their abilities, It would also be cool to have a whip! >.< But alas, I know this is very unlikely, but it doesn't hurt to throw it out there. xD

    This is pretty much what I've been thinking. Although, if they were to make a "Support" role as you indicated for BRD, Time Mage could be that instead.

    I think it'd turn into one of the first "hybrids". Healer in pinch? Haha

    We agree on a lot, just a few things:

    That could happen, but I am thinking 3rd job personally, and probably a hybrid type for sure.

    Oh come one, we see 2 NPCs in the game, 1 for class and 2nd for job. It maybe called assassin, but I think it is confirmed. They even mention a dagger class it in the last live letter. However skeptics will be that.
