Everything to know about 4.0 from the Fan Fest

I'm still gunning that the girl is indeed a DNCER from the trailer because while shes fighting our derplander mnk after she punched hard but blocks. She jumps back and does a VISIBLE jig before attacking again. So I am still going to say DNCER. Maybe with Puglist -> class to Mnk or DNC. Similar to SCH and SMN

Besides just from how she moves, and how her hands are in the cutscenes - how fluid her movements. It screams dancer to me.

I thought they said ACN was a failed experiment and they won't be splitting multiple jobs from a single class again because of the pain of balancing? D:

To be fair, arcanist failed because it split into a healer and a dps, so it had to have skills for both (and balancing the stat points was a bit of a pain). Should MNK and DNC both be DPS, that would help. The skill system revamp...might also help? I'm not sure how it works.

This and they seem to be trying to distance themselves as far as possible from the class system as a whole. Especially considering that Heavensward jobs didn't even have classes, I highly doubt Stormsblood jobs will suddenly have base classes again.

revamped battle system - Is what im pulling straws at, but it could be totally wrong lol. I just keep hopes in mind




Edit:

Back on the trailer. The other reason that bothers me that she isn't a MNK is mnks fight with closed fists similar to how the derplander is doing. But when you pause her movements she is fighting with her hand flat like a knife similar to a flourish. so It bothers me. I don't see her as a mnk. its just odd.

Well maybe she is. I dont know its just strange that Yoshi would say the derplander is a mnk but would not say they are both mnks.

uh, the entire theme of the expansion is centered around ala mhigo, which is kingdom of monks.
also as you can see from other posts, that's probably Yda...who is MNK, not DNC.
martial arts is like a dance, and she clearly does a martial arts pose, before attacking.
why would derplander train as a mnk, and fight a dnc, in a very typical martial arts scene??

To be fair, Thancred used to be a gladiator.

To test your abilities? You don't have to fight the same class to train. Besides if you pause it looks like she has a blade. You can see the slashing. It similar to the image of does on the please look forward to it!



Just feels dncer to me. But If you want to say its a monk thats your opinion and I respect that. I just don't know why the wouldn't say they are both monks.

Besides it kind of looks like while he is focusing she kind of jumps him. and they go into a playful bout.

MNK has plenty of blades for weapons.

I hope those were just 2 monks fighting too, the only thing that felt like DNC to me about her were the clothes. Everything else though, felt 100% MNK. I hope this is how it works out too, since there's plenty of jobs they could be adding that would be way cooler than frekin DNC. Yes, I could be wrong of course but this is just the way I think and hope it'll work out. As far as new races, I agree with other people's stance that instead of a new race, they could expand upon the limited options we currently have.
