    So...a Class Story Epilogue Saga?

    So with new jobs planned to no longer require their own classes do you think it a good time for SE to work on a Class Epilogue Storyline to show what has happened to each Class Guild after we graduated from all of them? (Similar to how they handled the Beast Tribe Storyline with the Allied Beast Tribe Quests serving as a Epilogue to Eorzea Beast Tribe Storyline)

    It would be a great way to show how the NPCs we meet are doing in their training and what has become of them after being gone from the Class Guild since we taken our Jobs.

    Also it would be fun to see all the Class Guild Leaders and NPCs we teamed up with in the Class Storylines fighting together.


    (PS if players ask, I'm basing this on the assumption current classes will remain in the game in 3.0, mostly to serve as starter classes/Jobs for new characters, while future new Jobs will no longer be tied to classes like Machinist, Dark Knight, and Astrologian)

    I like this idea! Sure, I can go back to the Lancers' Guild and chat with Ywain, but it's not the same as an actual storyline.

    While i don't know if they have covered any characters from the class quests, this is pretty much what the Moogle mail delivery quests gave been. Running into characters from earlier quests and seeing what they're now up to.

    Moogle quest does provide the fate of some NPCs but some of the Moogle Quest also serve as Prologues to certain NPCs to explain how they got to where we meet them in either FATEs or Dungeons.

    Those quest main aim is mostly to provide lore on these NPCs since they aren't involved in a Storyline Quest chain compared to Class Storyline involved NPCs where their lore is revealed over the course of the class storyline.

    So far the Moogle Quest has not aimed at the Fate of Class Story involved NPCs.

    Current NPCs involved in Moogle Quest are FATE NPCs, Side Quest NPCs, Dungeon NPCs, and side character NPCs we met in Main Scenario.

    One of the moogle mail quests has you speaking with Raya-O and A-Ruhn, who are integral to the WHM job quest.
    But yes none of the DoW or DoM class quests are directly involved, though the DoH ones are (CRP and ALC especially with the one involving Jandelaine)

    Ya it did but the Moogle Quest story was not about them but about the Mail Moogle himself. They only got involved since the quest provided the lore that those two keep a eye on the Mail Moogle and how he handles his Job.

    Still, it lays the groundwork for what we MAY be receiving soon.
    I can imagine having a letter to deliver to Oboro from Tsubame, for instance.
    One of the small problems with some of the class quests, though, is that though they lack follow-through to an almost absurd degree (very, very few of the class quests have anything to do with the job quests barring the WAR and NIN ones, for example) they also lack a lot of meaningful reason via the moogle mail to contact the old leaders, since a lot of them have their matters dealt with internally between guild members. Unless the letter is actually addressed to you personally, there isn't a lot of incentive for the people involved to send letters, which is a bit of a hurdle.
    The Job quests, on the other hand, are a bit of a mixed bag. Most would have some pretense for contact with a third party: SCH and SMN could be research results, WAR, MNK, NIN, and DRG could be missives from home, WHM has technically been done though they have such heavy political ties they fit in with basically everything. Haven't gone through BLM or PLD yet, though. BRD is a little tricky, though, but it could be done.
    I guess the class quest pretense could be jobs for the guild, but that seems a little lazy :P
