[Game] Make a Class/Job format!

[Grey_Cain]

Well, time to go overboard. A job for each role, to make three jobs per class. Of course, a lot of these are named more for the sake of having a recognizable job than being faithful to that job, and the roles are forced for symmetry rather than having an appropriate role for the particular job.

Job: Dark Knight
Role: DPS
Base Class: Gladiator
Secondary Class: Thaumaturge
Cross-Class: Lancer

Additional Enmity Generation on abilities replaced with HP loss for extra damage. Flash becomes Dark Wave for AoE cone damage. Abilities involve losing HP in exchange for extra damage.


Job: Heaven Knight
Role: Healer
Base Class: Gladiator
Secondary Class: Conjurer
Cross-Class: Pugilist

Additional Enmity Generation on abilities replaced with HP recovery, including Flash. Healing abilities spread the amount healed on self equally between all party members in range.


Job: Geomancer
Role: DPS
Base Class: Marauder
Secondary Class: Thaumaturge
Cross-Class: Arcanist

Additional Enmity Generation on abilities replaced with extra elemental damage based on terrain. Debuff ability adds a different debuff based on the terrain the caster is standing on (Slow on earth, Bind on snow, Burn on lava, etc.).


Job: Defender
Role: Healer
Base Class: Marauder
Secondary Class: Conjurer
Cross-Class: Gladiator

Additional Enmity Generation abilities replaced with damage reduction (like Stoneskin/Adaloquiem) placed on target's target. Additional abilities to put up reactive healing that cures a person when they take damage.


Job: Cavalier
Role: Tank
Base Class: Lancer
Secondary Class: Gladiator
Cross-Class: Marauder

Side- and Back-position requirements replaced with Additional Enmity Generation. Gains damage reduction while mounted (with the ability to summon and mount your Chocobo companion), but your companion can be killed and would need to be re-summoned to mount again.


Job: Oracle
Role: Healer
Base Class: Lancer
Secondary Class: Monk
Cross-Class: Conjurer

Side- and Back-position requirements absorb life instead of dealing bonus damage. Absorbed HP does not heal the Oracle but instead is put into a healing bubble. The Oracle can release the bubble on a target to heal them for the total HP in the bubble. If the Oracle would take damage, the bubble takes the damage instead, reducing the amount of healing that can be given to another player.


Job: Martial Artist
Role: Tank
Base Class: Pugilist
Secondary Class: Marauder
Cross-Class: Thaumaturge

Side- and Back-position requirements replaced with Additional Enmity Generation. Various stances add debuffs to the enemy or buff the Martial Artist.


Job: Priest
Role: Healer
Base Class: Pugilist
Secondary Class: Arcanist
Cross-Class: Conjurer

Chakra recast is reduced and placed on the GCD. Various stances change Chakra to one of a single-target heal on another player, an AoE centered on the Celebrant, or removes a single debuff on the target. In each case, the use of Chakra will put the player into a different stance.


Job: Sniper
Role: Tank
Base Class: Archer
Secondary Class: Lancer
Cross-Class: Marauder

Uses Ground AoEs to place traps that inflict Heavy and Bind on targets and generates more enmity the further they are from the target. Note: Any Archer tank that doesn't need to stay within melee range of an enemy would be too overpowered to be made into an actual job.


Job: Celestial Archer

Base Class: Archer
Secondary Class: Thaumaturge
Cross-Class: Arcanist

Fire healing arrows at allies. Add some buffs along with the healing.


Job: Time Mage

Job: Illusionist

In addition to their normal effects, Astral Fire bonus increases the potency of healing effects cast by the Illusionist, and Umbral Ice adds an evasion bonus to targets healed by the Illusionist. Main healing ability also gives a target shadows to absorb hits.

Base Class: Arcanist
