Thanks, that was what I saw. Couldn't remember where though. I wonder if they will work that concept in as a different class, Red Mage maybe? The concept is neat, just needs some tweaks.The original Arcanist did this:
-Lay Trap type magic (distaffs I believe.)
-Has insane buffs like HP/MP/TP regain
-Used Magic Missile.
So it wasn't fully known what it would do, but these were the basics in the data, so chances are ARN in ARR will likely summon stuff beyond Carbuncle since it's DoT based.
The only thing that comes to mind with the "hitting with book" thing is Alouette from La Pucelle, who would hit the protagonist in the head with a thick bible whenever she did/said something dumb.
* The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.
* Design ideas:
Red Mage - COMPLETE (https://tinyurl.com/y6tsbnjh), Chemist - Second Pass (https://tinyurl.com/ssuog88), Thief - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/vdjpkoa), Rune Fencer - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/y3fomdp2)
Based on the Alpha Character Creation video; seems like you can preview what your created character would look like in race specific gear, discipline equipment, as well as job AF.
Soo... if they let us play around with a Character Creation tool like I've been hearing..
You might be able to see just how a male/female Babydoll Rapture would look in SMN AF.
Here's hoping!
