New Class/Job Suggestion List -- Please Critique

[DarkStar]

Huh, guess I was mistaken when I thought you would be willing to let other people express their opinions. Oh well.

Also, why I dislike Musketeer coming from Archer but don't mind Ninja from Pugilist: I must've missed the bit where you said that if you were in charge of class/job design you'd be giving extra weapon types to each class and job. I was going off the idea that Musketeers have nothing to do with Bows, but it's perfectly reasonable to believe that a Ninja could have extensive training in unarmed combat.

Anyway, guess I'll be avoiding this topic from now on...

Feel free to critique him, unless you disagree, then disclaimer.

Nah... It's more having to do with your written style. Phrases like "lolsoldier" & beginning a critique with "..." as well as saying an ideation 'should be' as your opinion suggests comes off as both condescending and pompous.

My iPhone won't let me edit my post for character limit changing... so here is the rest of my reply:

"You're welcome to critique me, but to insult me as your written form would imply... it appears disrespectful & has the feeling of rudeness. While this may not have been your intent, I reiterate that is has the appearance of having been so."

Personally I have been thinking about this alot

There's a handful of jobs that would fit the game but if i was to take into the next expansion into account of being the theme of "1000 year old war"

DoL - Archaeologist - Surveying for ancient items such as ancient metal etc

But the jobs i would like to see make an entrance really soon is Blue Mage and Ninja and Corsair
Ninja i would like to be able to switch between DPS class and Tank class as this would be a great way to play the game that allows us to have the diversity that we want between our class.
I suppose the same could apply to Blue mage as some people would enjoy tanking or DPS or Healing on that job and it also's a great way how the spells we learn could have Blue mage spells tied to that specific role and how gears could be changed between the roles we wanna undertake.
Cos that what i kinda hate about FF14, there's no flexibility between our roles for some jobs

Read Disclaimer 1 please.

This is a critique to a suggestion right? It would be like saying geomancer job should be based on the lancer class. Not going to happen. So here was an honest critique.

Read Disclaimer 1... honestly there's no critique in telling a person 'not gonna happen', you haven't reviewed my idea(s) at all. There's a difference between critiquing and being a naysayer just for the sake of it.

Anyone have good ideas for another tank and healer job?

[Adrian74]

.....Ok, I can't say any constructive aside of that more classes and job will be welcome and that.... I... I want a double yielding class, damn it! and pugilist/monk doesn't count...

First thing that attracted me of gladiator was that the symbol was like two swords crossed, so I thought it would be a cool user of two swords but no....Why there are no classes/jobs wearing two swords? Or two weapons at all. If at least it would be compensated with .... Oh, wait, yes...

Add a tank Samurai, with a cool katana, maybe, only, possibly, who knows, that way.... We would see more tanks in the game, I'd surely try it, I don't mind tanking even with PLD...

I've got an idea for new jobs people can play. It's called a "Tank" type class, maybe 2 of them. One can be "Paladin", a sword and board, enmity generating, high mitigation job. Another one I call "Warrior", an axe wielding MRD class that is awesome "tanking" multiple adds at a time, high DPS and high HP. I bet DF que-up times would dramatically decrease if these jobs were leveled.

Please look forward to it.

Your new jobs ideas are awesome too, Chibi-san!... I hope they'll be implemented

I can't see us getting blue mage.
There just aren't the mobs with useful abilities to learn in ARR. Haste maybe from the garleans or maybe vulnerability down from kobolds but I can't think of nearly enough to base a class on. Without blue magic you aren't a blue mage.
