Forecast: Ninja with a chance of Samurai?

[Dude]

I think the dagger class is likely to happen. It would make sense to see both thief and dancer come out of that. They need a third healer.

That would leave a gun class. They have to get at least one more tank out of it and I think they could do something interesting with beast master. It could function a little like SCH where the beast takes half the damage or thereabouts.

Though i would love for them to push Red Mage as a parry tank. How great would that be with sword magic!

Though this was used as summoner like, I can see in FFXIV it being like a red mage, debuffing/enhancing magic guns. but the base class will be Musketeer... it was suppose to be released in 1.0 and it already has a guild so it better be added first before anything else... it is LONG over due.

In FFXI, Ninja and Samurai were both related to the Tenshodo, and underground organization in Jeuno. As revealed in 2.2, a similar organization exists in Limsa.

Ninja and Samurai will likely come from the Domans. Not Limsa Lominsa itself. The npcs Yugiri went with at Limsa looked more like thieves.

SE said we won't be getting a gunblade class until we can freely walk around in the Garlean Empire. So don't expect to see that until 1 or 2 expansion packs down the line.

While we know for sure we will get new classes, will they actually be showcased @ E3 or it is still too far in development yet i wonder

They said the new classes will be revealed at E3 and that we'd be getting them soon-ish after in something like update 2.35.

How about a ninja like Edge from ff4 or the ninjas in FFT. Give them a melee weapon and a sub weapon like a shuriken or a kusarigama that could be main/sub and a melee and/or range weapon. They could be dps/support with throwing skills that damage as well as blind, silence, slow, and paralyze.
