Is FFXIV hinting Berserker, Necromancer, and Chemist next expansion?

[znushu]

That poll has been going for quite a while, probably long enough to be before they did Heroes Gauntlet, and from what I can recall, the top spots included Chemist, Geomancer, Mystic Knight, Thief, Berserker and Necromancer. (Plus Ranger and Corsair as well I think).

I believe you're talking about this poll dated back in 2019? Which the top spots are as follows:

1: Mystic Knight/Rune Fencer/Spellblade.
2: Chemist.
3: Time Mage.
4: Gunner/Fusilier.
5: Necromancer.
6: Beastmaster.
7: Geomancer.
8: Puppetmaster.

Honestly though in my opinion about the next jobs being released I don't believe that this list is the say all be all as it contains to many in the 1st place spot. If I had to guess and assume what might be the next job i'd have to guess the following jobs:

Necromancer.

This has been talked about for a good while now ingame and has been picking up more traction with Shadowbringers content like in the Role Quests. So It really won't be of no real surprise if this becomes a job as it's been alluded to for far to long.

Beastmaster.

This one is abit iffy but I can see this becoming a job in the future as it's another minion type of role that would cater to those that like animals and would also allow for another job to have the requirement of handling mobs to obtain skills and such outside of BLU mages. Which would mean that parties of BLU and BSTM would be beneficial for both for obvious reasons.

Time Mage.

This is abit of a stretch but with the latest incidents that occurred in Shadowbringers it really won't be of a surprise to me if this became a future job as they are also known as "Dimensional Mages" as well and since we already have Black and White mages they would fit quite well in the roster of jobs, especially when we are in need of a 4th healer/caster role. I don't think Green Mages would ever be a thing since some of their spells are already being used by some existing jobs I believe.

I'm open to any job though as SE seems to have a plan already set in motion for future jobs. Either way I love reading all the debates though on stuff like this.

Same here, although i would like to see mystic knight tbh. All of the other jobs i really liked are in the game already. As far as that poll goes, technically the new machinist is basically puppet master, astrologian has time mage covered imo so the few jobs id take a crack at would be mystic knight chemist necromancer and beatmaster/Tamer. Necromancer, however has gotten a ton of traction since probably SB/HW(Edda from potd) even more lately. I know for a fact chemist has been talked about for the longest time ARR when people wanted a tp based healer and were shocked that the gun using job wasnt chemist. Ill give the team one thing, they DO really seem to add requested jobs in, even when they said in the past they wouldnt (Thank you whoever came to terms about RDM on the team) So its possible. I also don't know like if we will even get a 2nd job. HW time frame we got 4 new jobs within a few months (Ninja was added very end of 2,x) And maybe itll just take all their wits to come up with just a new healer, after some rebalancing and new stuff gets added. We all know it probably has to be a healer, it would be insane if not. Ideas about a necro like healer seem pretty cool. Chemist could be solid. I guess we will have to wait and see, though i love speculating.
