Well if they follow the whole class before Job system we may see the Class being a Fencer Class then at lvl 30 players can become Red Mage and/or Mystic Knight

Mystic Knight is another Fencer class like Red Mage but it follows a more Tank role path in FF history while Red Mage follow the jack of all trades but master of none DPS role more.

However, Yoshi-P did mention Blue Mage when he mentioned Red Mage.
