Beastmaster and Sanctury Island

[Savagelf]

this island will be great ideal for beast master. there quite few option for this they could raise beast for babies to adult or they could use it as tamer paradise

I'm thinking they could bring back that shepherd DoL that was supposedly scrapped for 1.0

Maybe Pagaga and Lyon are chilling on the island before WoL comes.

Stop giving ideas for limited jobs

[aveyond-dreams]

I have no problem with a full Beastmaster job being able to participate in a pet raising minigame. Bard has Performance, Summoner can glam their pets, White Mage gets a free Unicorn, and Tanks have their mounts. It is perfectly ok for full jobs to have an extra thing.

That being said, the aesthetic of a hunter/ranger who tames beasts is not something that should be reduced to a limited job in this or any game. Instead of a limited Beast Master, I would rather they focus on giving us 3 full jobs at expansion launches like they did in Heavensward. Limited jobs are a waste of resources and rob the playerbase of both classic FF jobs to use in current content and classic fantasy tropes in general.

In any case, if other mmorpgs can figure it out then so can FFXIV. See: Beast Mastery Hunter in WoW

some us like limit jobs

[aveyond-dreams]

A class that tames monsters isn't a limited job, it's a standard fantasy trope. Once more, if WoW figured out how to make it work in 2004, then so can FFXIV without reducing the job to *solely* a minigame. That isn't to say that they would be banned from taming/raising pets, we just want a job that can do actual current content in the expansion we're in.

If for whatever reason they cannot get the pet AI to work well enough then a system that combines pet attacks in the form of Reaper's Avatar attacks or Summoner's demi/jewel summons would also work nicely. The word "limited" should not be in anyone's vocabulary when discussing FFXIV's future if SE is supposedly unafraid to spare any expense moving forward.

Developing a full job that has a side thing should not be a big deal to them then.
