A chemist might make items more useful. I mean, when's the last time you used an Antidote or bottle of poison in a battle? If a new job can give new life to old content then let it be born.

Just want to say that Yoshi has said multiple times that he doesn't want to make a job that requires replenishing a stock of items. This is why he removed ammo from BRD, throwing chakrams from MNK, throwing pebbles from everyone else, and why he said NIN would never require tools for their spells like XI does. There's pretty much zero chance that CHM would make use of actual items.



I’d kill for a Druid like caster/healer to be added! Geomancer would be a good fit, or they could try just a straight up Druid and make it a unique FFXIV job!
We used them in ARR, that's for sure. They removed the need to use them because it's better not to have to. Bringing it back would be undoing QoL.
Anyway I was talking from a lore-based perspective, it would be like having the same class twice.


While I certainly don't expect it, I could see chemist as a 'tool-based' healer much like the MCH is a tool-based DPS (with their crossbow-bioblaster-grappling hook-rocketlauncher-etc super multitool, since if you notice most of their non-gun skills use the same tool in a different held position/configuration), hot-brewing potions and incense to heal and buff, smokebombs or poisons for damage or debuffing, and so on. could use a censer as their weapon.

First time healer after years of avodiing it, I wondered why taking WHM in PVP I have Glare and Dia instead of Earth and Aero. That's a shame, I actually enjoyed the CNJ story for what it was... maybe they're going to "give" GEO (if it's GEO) these spells instead? The FFXI player in me is tickled that I get to use Dia again.

My guess would be they properly refocused White Mages so they're more centered on their normal traits, and are likely to open it up for some sort of job. So it's probably a when not an if. Granted with all going on it's likely to be a bit before we see it. There isn't really any particular reason to change the White Mage otherwise.First time healer after years of avodiing it, I wondered why taking WHM in PVP I have Glare and Dia instead of Earth and Aero.
