Predictions for job(s) in the next expansion?

[3ureka]

I know it's really early to be asking this (actually came back to XIV and ShB just about 3 months now), but I was wondering what y'all's thoughts were.

In HW we got:
- DRK
- MCH
- AST

In SB:
- SAM
- RDM

In ShB:
- GNB
- DNC

I feel like a new healer class is probably in the works to keep up with the number of tanks. As for DPS, with the release of SAM and RDM in SB (both of which use the already existing striking and casting gear), I'm wondering if they'll a class that will utilize the maiming/scouting equipment that dragoons and ninjas use.

Certainly a new healer job at least. People seem to think Chemist is likely. After that, maybe another ranged physical DPS would put each category at four each (if you count BLU).

[Kabooa]

Healer.

Then the 'second' job is Sum/Sch finally splitting from each other as two standalone jobs.

[SpeckledBurd]

Definitely a new healer, if they don't make one people will riot. However we may not see a second new job other than that. They mentioned in the last series of Fan fests that they'd eventually hit a point where they aren't adding new Full Jobs to the game, presumably due to the added work load that comes from iterating on every job every expansion and right now there's a pretty decent number of jobs in every role. On the off chance that we do get a second one, it'll probably be a Caster or another Ranged job.

I'd rather they work on some of the existing jobs with issues.

I'll take a MCH-like MNK overhaul before another job.

I don't oppose the notion of focusing on fixing major problems with existing jobs before/rather than introducing new jobs at this point, but a Monk retooling should happen before 6.0, otherwise they'd be leaving the job in a state its players hate for two full expansions. "Hey we know you hated Stormblood Monk and Shadowbringers Monk was a flop even though we were so proud of it, just wait another year and a half and maybe we'll do something about it okay?" Isn't something the players should have to hear.

On top of another healer of some kind.

My guess is BST beastmaster utilizing ranjeet styled fusion attacks with a whip or axes as a melee class. Although some people would hate not getting to "catch" your pets klid hope it was implemented similar to summoners egi's so it wasnt a limited job like blue.

I can imagine that as well. I also can imagine that after making exp in eureka/blu they could bring debuff cls' soon. On healer side it could be a physical range one with potions for stat increases/decreases like.. yeah Chemist - on DDs side it could be smt like the classy Geomancer or the newer aged Saboteur/Synergist. -> bringen back a reason for element- & stati job/cls would be against there "simplification mind" sadly tho its mostprobably not gonna happen - anyways I would like it ^^

[Barachim]

Hopefully something like a Cleric. I just want a Healer with a hammer.

[reverseblade]

My personal hope is Thavnair next.

Mystic Knight/Rune Fencer dps, and Chemist Healer.
