SECOND Job Stones for base classes of ARR?

[Valkyrie_Lenneth]

Also no tank class using Tower shields yet or a job that throws party members at things to do damage like Umaro did.

Well, PLD actually used to have 3 variations of shields. We only see 1 these days tho.

While leveling you have Bucklers, Kite Shields, and Tower Shields.

Bucklers have higher block rate, kite is equal on both, and tower has higher block strength

The 3 types actually were bucklers, kite shields, scutums

They never had an actual tower shield despite titling some of the rectangle shaped shields as tower shields, however none were the size needed to really be a tower shield as these would be large enough to be used as cover or in large numbers to create a defensive line or wall.

In hindsight they did sacrifice mobility due to their size though technically other gear items in game should do the same to be honest. I'd picture a tank using one of these though as being less mobile but having more mitigation abilities or mechanics available to them or just stronger mitigation in general if unable to do the former.
