So, now Monk/Dragoon have to compete with yet another class?

Could be a tank slot for all we know.

we at least know the role is dps.

but int? str? dex? new stat? we dunno this stuff.

Also@Omega : The game mechanics tell Bard to use dex in its damage formula but that has nothing to do with it being ranged. Their attacks just have further range than melee attacks do. They changed Second Wind from int to str. Changing what stat damage comes from in the damage formula isn't as difficult as you think.
