VIKINGS!!! Could we please at least get a hammer? Viking Class

[xXTh0r_0d1ns0nxX]

initial thoughts
Abilities:
Hammer Throw: Ranged singular attack increases enmity
Viking pyre/thunder call: increases damage of thunder/fire abilities for entire party by 15% for 10sec
Mjolnir: launches character to desired target in flight of the valkyrie stance deals lightning DoT for 300 potency over 15 sec/Pyre of the Ancients stance same thing but AoE fire damage up to 15 yalms around target

Stances:
Flight of the Valkyrie: Damage stance/thunder aspected
Pyre of the Ancients: Tanking stance/fire aspected

Abilities:
Hammer Throw: Ranged singular attack increases enmity(similar to shield lob or tomahawk).*
Viking pyre/Thunder call: increases damage of fire/thunder* abilities for entire party by 15% for 10sec
Mjolnir: launches character to desired target; in Flight of the Valkyrie stance deals lightning AoE up to 10 yalms away for 250 potency*/Pyre of the Ancients stance same thing but instead of AoE, it DoTs target for 300 potency fire damage for 15 sec*
(Decided we alrdy had a lightning DoT so Lightning AoE damage and Fire DoT would be more fun.)*

Stances:
Ragnarok: Damage stance/thunder aspected, More DMG!, debuffed attack speed. Hits harder 450-600 potency but GCD is 2.5-3.0 sec maybe slower. (thinking of changing the stance names)*
Jotunn's Reckoning: Tanking stance/fire aspected, Major health increase, Major DMG decrease more so then Warriors, focusing more on Enimity control and DoTs then actual weapon DMG*

This could be a lot of fun, and hopefully we'll see something along those lines.

I think it certainly would be

Aren't Warriors == Vikings? I mean Marauders are basically Vikings (pirates close enough...) and isn't the Warrior job NPC from the northern mountains? The WAR armour is all viking-y too... I think you're hoping for a bit too much here!

Vikings, Warriors/Fighters have been consistently different classes in previous final fantasy games. i have several links above if youd like to read up. If anything i simply am in the hopes we could get a Blunt hammer. or a Blunt hammer tank that has extremely slow but heavy hitting attacks. like one poster said a physical blm.
