    there is no guarantee that they will move elemental skills to thaum, also black mage may not be an elemental master in this game.

    Say for example its thm/con, they will gain access to nukes, if blm has some native magic potency trait, they will probably be better or equal to a conjurer.

    Essentially they can keep the elemental nukes on con, and give the black mage jobs nukes like gravija, ultima, meteor, death, etc. essentially non elemental distructive spells.

    That said we will see what they choose to do next week i suppose.

    That'd be fine, I just don't want them totally screwing over the lore by doing something so nonsensical as making the elemental people not use elemental magic. It'd be like making archer no longer use bows, and having them use swords instead now.

    I could only see something like that happening under extreme conditions.

    Like if you'd welcome changes to FINAL FANTASY XIV that would drastically alter the rules already set in Eorzea.

    Completely agree.. and i like your sig!

    Edit: Reading over rep post, saying they wont have major changes probably means that cnj will still have elementals, but this will contradict it's job counter part which i assume wont have elementals (whm).

    He did say if people voice their opinion for big changes, theyll consider.. i personally think it makes more sense to have thm as DD and cnj as healer, thatll keep harmony between class and job and means people dont have to level both classes to get what they need for class and job play.
