Mind in posting the link where they "clearified" it? Because by what i know there is no official confirmation regarding this.

Ppl is assuming THM will be BLM because CON got raises...but CON actually has the base of all color mages. Its much easier THM coming as DRK and CON as BLM in this first batch than THM coming as BLM...after all WHM is not needed right now...in the current game content, you can have CON (without job) dealing with healing role perfectly and BLM (with job) focusing on magic DD.
