Anyone else think they should at least Specify the # of New Jobs?

Nah Warrior is tank, Dark Knight should be a DPS with Samurai a tank.

Since the expansion involves Ishgard, the dark knight makes sense for launch, samurai won't be around til we get more content involving Doma, which didn't seem to be mentioned in the notes for 3.0.
Remember that Ninja and Rogue had precedent before they were added. So far there's been no precedent for samurai, but there HAS been precedent for Dark Knight (not an actual NPC, but there are thematic elements at work with Ishgard)
Therefore, my prediction is we will NOT be receiving Samurai for 3.0

Whatever they add, they better redesign the game to better support actually being able to play on multiple jobs with all of these new ones coming in. I'd rather not have to keep using only my 'main job' for locked out content.

Actually now that you mention this, I think some of the story in the 2.3 questline is pointing at the imminent emergence of Dark Knights in Ishgard.

All in good time OP. all in good time.

[Bluevann]

Give me more armoury chest slots, then we can talk about more than two new jobs.

[KaiKatzchen]

Before E3:
Mentioned Rogue and Gunner

Then mentioned:
That more people want another healing and tank class but it won't be out until 3.0 expansion.

The at Fanfest:
Hinted at Dark knight, but didn't clarify
Also said more jobs would be mentioned at London fanfest.
Some believe that maybe if it is DRK it will be a tank...

So atm we might be looking at 3-4 new class/jobs besides rogue/ninja.

[Sammich]

I imagine that there will only be one healer and tank job released. That will preserve the 1:1:2 ratio for tanks, heals, and DPS (since SMN is currently the odd DPS out). They might add another DPS caster job, since there is already lore in place for a geomancer-style class, but I'm personally going to keep my expectations low. Better to be surprised than disappointed ;D

edit; changed class to job.

[Morningstar1337]

Should be at least three given the Dark Knight reveal and what they said before about adding a tank and a healer.

Unless they plan to make Dark Knight a tank.

That would be interesting if it has a trait that takes a portion of damages and makes uses it to heal

[Danbo05]

These bleeped out "Knights of the Round Table" during the introduction, and mentioned there being 12 knights. I wonder why...hm...

[myahele]

I wonder if those 2 npcs with new hairstyle are part of the Knights of the 12
