It’s fine that you want that, I’m just saying that I wouldn’t get your hopes up. We already have 3 jobs that use one handed swords (paladin, gun breaker, and red mage) and one job that uses 2 handed swords. You have to think about weapon design. Fortunately the 3 one handed sword types are all fairly different, but the more types you have, the harder it is to come up with unique designs.

I think that whips could work extremely well if they ever wanted to do a melee magic user that is Clive inspired.

That being said, SE likes their neat boxes. Is this class a melee class? Magic users have the advantage of being able to be at range. What stat does it use?

I feel like if it used whips they might be able to get away with saying it’s a scouting class so it could share gear with NIN.
