Hinting at New Jobs? [ Small Spoilers for Patch 5.3 ]

All I know is give me Berserker job. Yes even if we have war.
But for the love of hydaelyn give them a hammer weapon, we have enough swords.

Sadly the Warrior job we have already does what this guy does. He's just an amped up dude that seems to have given into his inner beast. If you're unfamiliar that's what drives the Beast Gauge and its actions entirely. You'll notice his eyes look like the players when you use Inner Release.

I mean I could see it being the dps counterpart to warrior kinda like a whm/blm thing?

“Half Life 3 confirmed”

Honestly these aren’t hints the point of the quest was the future generations of “Warriors of Light” and those who inspire them aswell as the contrast to how are friends are in the first compared to the Source

Come on, SE has previewed features of their next expansions in their patches every expansion. It's not unreasonable to expect something coming of any of these nods.

White and Black Mages are entirely different things.

White Mages, by this game's lore, use the power of the elementals to weave aether in ways to manifest it in a curative form to heal and/or defend themselves.

Black Mages, by this game's lore, make aether itself bend to their will to decimate any that oppose them.

And before you try to say "but they both involve aether" everything in this game manipulates aether to some degree since aether is the essence of life itself in this game.

As for what they could seperate to make berserker a dps... not much. Warrior was always about being in the fray and doing wild beastial attacks to mow through hordes of enemies. I would love to see a pure raging club/hammer maniac but I just dunno how'd they go about making it different from warrior.

I mean they both drain the land of aether and are ultimately very dangerous for the environment. (that's why you have to get permission from the elementals to be a whm), on top of that they could be forms of ANGER manipuation from opposing factions like whm/blm.
