Ishgardian classes

[Balipu]

Yeah. I just gathered what I assumed to be the minimum that we can expect. For all we know, the class number could be doubled.

Only the classes have to be tied to Ishgard. Nothing suggests old classes can't get second job crystals that come from somewhere else.

Since DK is seen as the dark counterpart of Paladin, it is a safe bet that it is also a tank.

That is very true. Even now only Gladiator/Paladin and Conjurer/White Mage are the only class/job combinations directly linked to classes' starting city.

Dark Knight is more often an offensive heavy armor melee frontliner with semi-tanking capabilities. It tends to share offensive duties with the Monks and Dragoons.

Isnt Black Mage also a class connected to it's city state? (AKA: Ul'dah)

I can see the new classes being released for the 3.0 build being linked significantly to Ishgard. Dark Knight especially since the Holy See of Ishgard may start reviving old and/or forbidden art's and magic's so they can combat the looming Dragon horde's and the possible awakening of Niddhog (or whoever the evil elder Dragon (not Bahamut) was)

Yes. Now the question is, what classes make sense? I for one think that Samurai doesn't. As much as I love samurai, as everything else related to japanese culture, it would be totally alien in Ishgard.

Well... lady Higiri is from Doma. She obviously knew how to fight. There might be other Doman's who fled and desire to bring back their fighting styles. That and since Domans have pretty much started to take up residence in Mor Dhona, they could very well aid Ishgard in its battle against the Dragon's since they are allies.

Good point. Yugiri already gave Limsa ninjas so others could follow her example. Especially since her races is the new selectable race. And of course Mor Dhona is right next to Coerthas, so the refugees in Revenant's toll don't have to walk for long to reach Ishgard.
