    Dancer or some other job that specializes in debuffs and other support.
    (Think AST, but instead of cards to boost party members, they have skills that debuff enemies in a range, much like a bard's foe requiem)

    Thief or some assassin-like job without mudra.
    (May have a system like greed- certain skills will "steal" things from opponents and give you buffs. Must be maintained, much like huton or grease lightning.)

    Gunblade using job.

    In case you didn't know, a mob can only be debuffed 3 times, with diminishing returns, before mob becomes immune to debuffs for a while.
    Debuffs don't work on bosses, 99% of the time, so a debuff job would be completely USELESS.
    The only exceptions are debuffs that reduce defenses or attack (Virus/disable, trick attack/ballad)
    It would be awkward to have a job centered around it, when pretty much every job already have multiple debuffs. Unless debuffer job has stronger debuffs than every other job, then it would be useless - if its debuffs are stronger than everyone elses, then it would be OP, and make everyone elses debuffs, useless.
    It counts as support role, and there's no support roles in XIV.
    Every job has support skills, because there's no support roles.
    If they add dancer, it may be a healer with some utility skills, like the other healers. Either way, forget everything you know about dancer from XI...because XIV dancer won't be anything like it.
