[Savagelf]

sage is for ff series so it may be something like soul guardian or soul knight because we are deal with Zodark

SE introduce 1 job for ff one job for ffxiv i think it be cross melee magic weild job

Don't think it's gonna be "Ranjit".

They're going to give it DRG gear, and it would be strange to make a 2nd DRG gear job that uses a scythe and looks more Dragon themed than DRG. They're going to want it to look different and stand out from the rest and DRG has the dragon theme.

That's why I think the answer is sitting in our face, Necro/ Reaper thing. A Dark, edgy, death themed melee job would be new and not step on any other job's toes. Could also use Mana.

You mean Dark Knight?

Dark Knight is about...you know, darkness. Reaper and death is another thing. Both could be considered edgy though.

I always felt drk was more about retribution than just being dark. Part of drk's purpose is to punish those who remain unpunished for their ill deeds. A dark side of justice.

Whereas with something like a reaper I feel it's more a case of "your time has come, death comes for everyone eventually" and not "this is payment for your sins". Both dark and are relating to death, but the reasons for the death differ.

I feel similarly about Reaper, however I do feel they might have also have a gentler side to it as opposed to a cold demeanor. Like I have this image in my head where when we meet the 'trainer' we see them witnessing/aiding an ailing individual into death, but then having the demeanor shift when it turns out that this person's ailment was in part due to some form of necromancy which caused the scales to shift and thus, ending the source, balances the scales again.

I love how I saw one person say its Judge.
Would be great since they gave us Magister Armor

i dont think its much of a stretch considering Most maiming gear is either Dragoon esk or Discount tank gear especially sets like Baldur,Diamond,lvl66 in terms of dragoon gear

Yes, like a melee DPS Drk if you want to simplify it.

YP legit looked at the comments and said something along the lines of "Dark Knight? Isn't that already in the game? Necromancer? What's that?".

To clarify, I do NOT think "Dark and Edgy" is a concept that is or should be monopolized by Drk. It's a pretty huge concept with tons of room for different takes just like how Sam and Ninja are both "Eastern blade users" with completely different themes and aesthetics. IMO ... heavy armored Dragon themed pole arm fighter and ANOTHER just as-if-not-more dragon themed fighter that also uses the same heavy armor and a different pole arm is just not gonna happen.

The death angle alone would make it different from anything in the game.

I saw a theory based on Sice from FF Type-0 and could definitely see that happening.
