First level cap rise predictions

I'm going off topic here, but just so that you know.
"Ronin" is a certain type of "Samurai".
Just like "Apple" is a certain type of "Fruit".
"Fruit" class splitting into "Apple" job and "Orange" job makes sense.
But "Apple" class splitting into "Fruit" job and "Vegetable" job doesn't make much sense.

Isn't a Ronin a Samurai that lost it's master in one way or another? I could see Ronin's storyline being an amateur Katana weilder whose master died before he became a full-fledged samurai. Then the samurai quests are about getting a new master and continuing your training.

Edit: It could also open up into Ninja. Same back story for Ronin, but instead of continuing your samurai training, you decide to go the assassin route and become a ninja instead.

Yes, so, you'd have to be a Samurai first, lose the master, and then become a Ronin. You can't become a Ronin without being a Samurai at least once.

Yeah, did you read the rest of the post? If so, would that not work? I'm not sure at what point in your training you get the title of Samurai, but if you started being taught to become a samurai and your master died, could you not be considered a ronin?
