    I personally want the next healer job to be Necromancer, they already kinda teased it with the second boss in Heroes Gauntlet, and Yoshi p is a big fan of Tactics ogre which heavily features Necromancers.
    Also in TO necromancy has a few of healing type spells, albeit for undead units only, but you could just do some funky stuff with the lore to pretend all the necro's party members are zombies xD.

    It would also give an excuse to make a healer with a more fun and complex dps rotation too, similar to SMN, you could have a summon undead unit spell, and attacks commands similar to egi assault.

    While I myself would like to see a Necromancer such job wouldn't fit in Eorzea. Necromancy is a crime and WoL isn't exactly about doing crimes.
    So we'd only get a Necro if they completely remove the whole "raising the dead and controlling zombies" thing but in such case it'd probably be easier to just name it something else as well.

    But this is why it would be fun and interesting, who says we have to be all sunshine and rainbow protagonists? And i doubt the lawmakers of Eorzea would complain too much about us using some dark magic when we're using it to save the world multiple times by defeating primals and ascians for them.

    Also Necromancy doesn't necessarily have to be evil and criminal, Diablo Necro class protagonist for example.

    And in Tactics Ogre, Cressida and her family(exluding Nybeth ofc) used necromancy as a way to bring peace to the dead and allow them to fulfill their dying wishes, some of which i imagine included soldiers who wished to continue fighting for their country after their death.
