Jobs and Classes: Ratios.

[AceofRains]

^ I actually like the idea of Pug -> Dnc

[AceofRains]

Mayb if we can get a scout we can see a 2:1 on dancer

[NadienKirisame]

^^no kitty, i respect ur opinion very much, but not with that

lancer should be dancer., it even makes the bards life easy when they sing for thier suppa

pug should - omega/ruby weapon/ sin. (hybrid)

and i'm not just saying that because pug is my favorite

Sorry grandm I did add in your thoughts to the list :P I just can't move dancer away from PUG though... because it sort of fits so well. The flow of some martial arts are like a dance... sorry ><

The cat is bemused =-.-=

In one of the interviews, Yoshi actually gave a hypothetical example of this.
He said in the future, something like Red mage might require both Conj and Thaum

I think it would add depth to the armoury system if a Job was linked to 2 different classes so you could choose between a Conj red mage or a thaum red mage
Or say Thief needing both Gladiator and Archer... Adding a bit of choice to jobs... which would really mesh well with the ideals behind the armoury system

Actually, since we have to equip the stone to our "class" to be the "job"
it makes even further sense to just "chose" which class will get the exp.

And honestly, a PGL> DNC transition i also like.

PGL > DNC makes a lot of sense really. PGL + MNK get elemental damaging effects to their attacks and a personal buff. DNC could continue XI's samba type effect (I think LNC is losing it in 1.20? I forget) and maybe continue with that personal buff but extend it in an aura effect or something.

I was thinking the same thing, how cool would that be ^^

Gotta say, I didnt think anyone would seriously propose lnc. pole dancers?

Also... What of blue mage. A new magic every 5 lvls? What would be our basis for learning, purely beastmen?

Gladiator >>> Fencer/ Musketeer

Marauder >>> Samarai
Marauder >>> Berserker
Marauder >>> Viking (version 2)
Marauder >>> Templar (version 2)
Ninja >>> Thief
Ninja >>> Dancer
Ninja/Beast-master >>> Blue Mage
Pugilist >>> Monk

Call me old fashioned, but, 7 classes -> 7 jobs seems simpler to me.
