RED MAGE and other jobs

[WwZeLoSwW]

Hi guys!!

I was allways been a fan of final fantasy XI but I couldnt play it...
I've seen the job classes and I'm amazed! Red Mage, Blue Mage, ¿Puppet Master? xDD

Heres the question: How long take for them to put thoose jobs one per one into the game? I mean, They add one new job yearlky or two jobs per year?

My favourite job in final fantasy world allways been Red Mage or Bard so.. I CANT WAIT for red mage. plus, I want to try Blue mage too, but I'm so lost without information or stuff about the jobs addition in this game; the way they will add thoose and the time it will take...


Any oppinions? (I'm spanish. That means english is not my mother tonge so, sorry if i failed or didnt I explained the question perfectly)

Game hasn't been out for a year yet. (ARR not original).

No one can say for certain how they will release, in what order, or when they will release new things. Its just a wait and see game.

[WwZeLoSwW]

I know that ^^

Its just... I need to know opinions from other players and meet ideas based on FFXI experience or players imagination itself.


(Plus, I cant wait for Red Mage)

From what I remember, they put out a new class or classes in most of the expansion pack. I think they were once a year or so.

Most likely the expansion for 3.0 will have new jobs. Not core game. However if RDM comes out its game on! Need to make it like whm and blm at least 30 for the job unlock followed by gladiator to 30 as well. Or whatever need 3 jobs unlocked for it make it somewhat a challenge.

If i remember right.

2003: Rize of Zilart (first expansion) samuria, ninja, and summoner.

2004: COP no new jobs (I remember the outcries when this happend) but heavy storyline.

2006: ToAU ; puppetmaster, blue mage, corsair. (this is when i stop playing)

2007: Wings of Goddess : dancer and scholar

2013: SoA; which included fencer and geomencer.

Lets see... Potential base classes for RDM, BLU, and PUP? CNJ/ACN with THM support (not many other choices after all) for RDM, GLA/THM with PGL for support for BLU (I'll explain this in a few lines..), PGL/MRD with LNC for PUP (couldn't think of much, so sue me).
The wierd combo for BLU is because all of the base skills of GLA could simply be augmented, such as removing emnity modifiers and replacing it with a debuff or buff ability. For example, replace Rage of Halone with Wrath of Halone, same potency, but adds STR +10% for 15sec to you, instead of STR down on enemy. Rest of the details I haven't worked out yet though, sorry, but it's a start, right?

With RDM classically being a sword and shield mage I would guess the base class would be GLD.

As to when? No idea but not soon enough.

With RDM classically being a sword and shield mage I would guess the base class would be GLD.

As to when? No idea but not soon enough.

Could easily just make a different base class that uses Epees, Rapiers, and other pointy-stabby swords. Fencer is a common suggestion.

If I had to pic a current class it would be the GLD.
