Job Line Up

[SinSilverwing]

Seriously looked for this but i cant seem to find one that matches it.
(also if this belongs in a better place please let me know cause ill try to move it to the appropriate forum/sub-forum)

So without further adieu...

What new jobs do you think will be made for branching of from what we currently have and what roles will they likely fill?

Also please keep this civil people. There really is no right or wrong here as its pure speculation. (Plus id like to see some humorous ones to boot)

Here are what my thoughts are so far
Gladiator
Dark Knight: This i see as a DPS class with some tanking to it, or a heavy hitting Tank class. Plus it fits with the lore of Paladins and Dark Knights being two sides of the same coin, kind of like White Mage and Black Mage

Pugilist
Dancer: Easily builds off of what is there, and gains various dances to aid the party in some way either through attacks or buffs, making it a complement to the Bard Job
Puppet Master: I only seen this one once, but the time it did it seemed to work with hand to hand with a little puppet. So it might fit here but would turn Pugilist into a pet class
Tamer(Beast Master): This would be the same case as the Puppet Master. Only other possibility for it is if there is a class added that uses whips.

Lancer
Blue Mage (suggested elsewhere): For those who want to see something akin to Kimari. And it could work as another DPS type class.
Samurai: Give these guys a Japanese spear, and there you go. But there is so much more that could be done here if they add in a region that's Japanese themed and add in the Ninja Class too. DPS or Tank depending on how they build it.

Marauder
(?)

Archer
Ranger: A true long ranged DPS. Enhancing the range to attack even more. Straight DPS.

Conjurer
Geomancer: A DPS class that focuses puts greater emphasis on the elements of nature and working with the Elementals instead of borrowing from them. (Again saw this somewhere but forgot where). A great DPS style with emphasis on healing.

Thaumaturge
Time Mage: Can go either way with this one, being a healer or a DPS class. (saw this one suggested somewhere as a healer) Where they could either heal or attack using time magics, depending on how the class is built.

Nearly forgot this one (Yet to be added)
Musketeer
Corsair/Pirate: Well? Why not, everything is already set up in the Coral Tower, and fits with the region perfectly. Same class just two different ways to call it. DPS Job
Theif: Weird and odd given thieves use knives in most games. But could work as with times change they tend to go for the better weapons in this case guns. DPS Job
Gunner: An alternative to the Pirate above, this one could Dual Wield guns making it low damage high attack speed (outside of the GCD). DPS
Blue Mage/Gun Mage: This one i think has some merit as being a DPS with support like abilities from the attacks of various monsters they can kill. I see this as a viable job, this can even have some very minor healing to aid the healers if in a pinch.
Those were all the possibilities i could think of

You can even do what new classes and jobs your might expect or hope to see in the future! I will keep this list up to date with everyone's thoughts and projections as best i can to keep everything in one place to save hunting.

I don't think there's any real way to predict this, since Yoshi-P admitted that he's willing to be very fluid with the armory system, able to change the affects of some job abilities in order to achieve the desired effects. His example of this was building Dark Knight out of Gladiator and doing things like removing all the enmity boosting effects on their abilities.

That said, Dark Knight coming out of GLD is a popular suggestion, as is Time Mage from THM, Geomancer from CNJ, and Corsair from the yet-to-be-released Musketeer.

yell yea, this is just something fun to do really. I expect nothing to come from it. I didn't even go into full detail, cause that's just time consuming as hell. If people want to go on and on why this job to this class then by all means XD. I'm just looking at it since the Scholar/Summoner both share a book from their base class, that's how i made my list.

Its just something, to see how people would progress with jobs for the already available classes. Hell i heard somewhere as a joke that Samurai should be a healer.

I really hope Yoshi doesn't see any value in "pure" classes. Let any new jobs coming out provide a different game style
