Where are the new jobs for EXISTING classes?

[Nayto]

The rogue took them.

[MGunns]

It would be nice if they actually improved what they already have in game. There are still a lot of classes that don't have their second job.

"Borrowed." Stealing is frowned upon in Eorzea. More of a Vana'diel thing.

Ok SE is making new classes and jobs for those classes

You will doubtfully ever see a second job for a class again, the class system does nothing but drag the abillity to be original with the jobs themselves. Rogue may as well not exist and just had Ninja as it's own self contained job...and go forward like that. The class system just hamstrings the jobs themselves.

Working as intended is not the same as, "intelligently designed."

Yet some people think it is. I for one think it's a good idea to make you choose.

Oh no, you have to specialize for a particular role? What horror.

[AeirTalies]

Heaven forbid should anyone be different from another player. Imagine a game with creativity. Sounds worse than cancer.

specializing? To hell with that, for the low low price of only 10,000 you can easily redistribute your bonus points! Buy it now!!

While the sarcasm is charming, this is irritating for people who thrive on multi-classing. I see this as a system that will fade away in the future for the sake of diversity so I'm not too fussed about it, but being almost completely prevented from playing my Summoner is really lame. I enjoy it, I want to do it more, but I main a Scholar and I'm not going to spend 10k company seals constantly so I can not be gimpy when I want to have fun with another job. If I had to do that for every single thing I play it would definitely put a damper on my long-term stay in XIV.

Edit: Not to stray too far from the topic though, I imagine we'll hear more about this towards the fanfest this fall. It seems like they're saving any expansion-related announcements until then.

Dark Knight coming off from MRD (for example) would not be the end of the world. STR instead of VIT. OH no! (And I imagine there could be lots of situations where going one way or the other would not a huge deal). I like choices even at the expense of making one job "worse."

Meh, I don't even run VIT as WAR. Honestly don't think for a moment that the 540ish HP is worth anywhere near as much as what STR brings.

I wish I could disagree with this but honestly, I can't.
