Why are people guessing that the next job is Necromancer?

Yeah Necromancer doesn't make much sense at this point.
It's already in established lore as a caster, the new job is confirmed to be using maiming gear.
Yoshi P even mentioned Necromancer during the livestream, as well as saying no one had guessed it yet. If it was Necromancer, he would have just kept quiet and not mentioned it.

Yeah that makes sense. A lot of people are still guessing Necromancer though, so I'm curious what additional evidence they have that I might have missed.

Literally just his shirts that appear to show some kind of Reaper, and have completely misinterpreted his mention of Necromancer during the stream.

I have also heard that people were guessing Necromancer as the next job because of the Heroes' Gauntlet dungeon, though I'm not sure if it's before or after the announcement.

That was mainly before the announcement, when the common theory was that we'd be getting a Healer and a Caster DPS.
