Which ffxi job would you play in xiv?

[DefendPopPunk]

BLU. Say what you will about the whole process of learning all the spells, but the job trait system was kind of fun and unique at its time. Also, how cool is it to be able to use those signature moves that all the final fantasy mobs are known for? It's going to be interesting to see how it's implemented on FFXIV, if ever. Honorable mention goes to BST, of course.

How about no. FFXI jobs wouldn't work in FFXIV. They wouldn't play the same is what I'm really saying. After playing SCH on both I really miss the FFXI version of it. It plays do much better on that game then this. I'm also weary about SAM. I feel it's a high chance they will butcher it to high hell compared to its FFXI version.

Keep in mind I would like to see SAM as a tank or DPS.

Dancer x1000!! I'm a sucker for daggers and dancing. I hope DNC is a DPS/healer or support.

Edit: I also loved DNC AF and Relic for males, it was perfect!!

theif! I want moar l00t!
I'd also like to play red mage if say it was more open to other job's skills like you'd expect a red mage to be. (ie, not locked to two other class's skills but rather ALL of them)

Well, the classes will be more versatile, certainly. But the question on whether the Jobs get more quests (and abilities) is up in the air. It's a fallacy that's somehow become a meme that Jobs are leveled. They are not, classes are leveled, Jobs are quested. Not one single Job ability is gained through the solitary act of leveling. Not a one. It's an aspect that's unique to classes alone. Though, that said, there could be more class quests as those have all ended on open notes, unlike the Job quests.

Append: Also... holy zombie thread, Batman! Well, good news, we're getting Thi-I mean rogue and Ninja! That's two our of... five?

Omg let's nitpick.....OK so maybe upcoming job quests for bard will give them more versatility in the way of buffs and debuffs. Sure some jobs/classes have slow and disease things like that but a job/class that specializes in it would be great.

For me I'd love to see pup/Sam/rng added

[Chiramu]

Beserker I don't know if it was a XI job though(I never had anyone to play it with me) but I definitely hope Beserker is the second job for Marauder .

[Miya_Carbuncle]

Summoner. You know, the one with the big awesome pets. Not the weird tiny things summoners have today for some reason.

[Rumpelstiltzkin]

Personally I would play BLU if I got to choose from XI classes. I know my two brothers would love SAM or THF and RDM.

As for any job I would love to see Chemist healer, morpher, mechanic and gunmage.

[Lollerblades]

Puppetmaster, Corsair and Dancer. I loved them all.

I'd love it if we could customise our automatons like we can In Xi.
