    I have plenty of issues with DPS and healer Jobs but I am focusing on Tank currently because of the talk about Tank getting a option to become a DPS.

    As I mention in my other post, Role Shift system can be possible if SE put effort into making it work by providing certain adjustments to stats, job mechanic, and change/replace certain skills based on their Role Shift thus a successful Role Shift system can provide current jobs with other Role Options such as Red Mage can become a Double cast Healer, Monk can become a Counterattack Tank, SAM can become a Parry Tank, Astrologian can become a DPS Celestrial attacker, and even a Warrior can become a DPS Brute force hitter.

    I already agree in the past in old posts we need more Tank jobs but I also want them to get creative with the Tank Jobs beyond them just being "cool" looking. Also, don't want the future of Tanks to be "only sword" jobs and this warrior with a Axe.

    get more creative with weapon choices for Tanks such as Hammers that can act as a debuff tank that smash enemy armor and weapons to make them and allies cause more damage to the enemies and enemies cause less damage, the defensive Martial Arts styles that focus being attacked then countering that attack, maybe even unarmed Magic Tank user that focus on creating magical barriers and instant cast magic attacks, and maybe dive into Garlean theme jobs such as the Gun-Shield job for a heavy shield defender type Tank that focus on using the Gun-shield to attack and defend.
