Sword Saint- Role: DPS

[Shining_Tiger_Excalibur]

would have made a nice job to play. seems to fit tank as well DPS roles. if only SE looked at this for a job addition

I almost wanna' say they could save time and just rename Paladin to Sword Saint, rework our skills, and poof no more "baseline" tank gibberish that Yoshi says. They're gonna' eventually have to give up on that ideology when they keep adding more and more jobs. BUT, I'd actually consider playing it if it's a tank.

As a matter of fact.....looking at the Wikia for it......holy shit this is just a reworded role description of Paladin. "A peerless warrior who commands an entire knightly order. It is said that none can match his swordplay." Hell, maybe this could just be the next evolution of Paladin....sort of like a Tank tier system where all of our current tanks could advance to new tiers to advance in more difficult content. I LIKE IT.

I suppose they could go tank, but my hope for this job was an xiv version of FFXI samurai/blue mage/renkai system/magic burst. You combo skills to dish out mega magic for more damage depending on the weaponskill combination.

Since the regiment system was removed here and I don't see them bringing FFXI combat into here. My wish is for one job that captures the spirit of that gameplay in Sword Saint.
