There are some things we don't know though (unless I'm mistaken which is possible):

*We don't know if you can level up the class associated with a job while using the job. We know that jobs essentially don't have levels but depend on the class it comes from. If this is true then you would be forced to use the class to level up.

*We don't know if jobs get their own specific weapon types. This was mostly speculation on the "classes = weapons" assumption but if jobs do get their own weapon types then that throws that entirely out the window.

*We don't know how you'll acquire these weapons. I know they mentioned that there will be quests and whatnot involved in the progression of jobs so maybe there is a set number of these weapons and you get them from progressing in this manner.

*We don't know if jobs can use more than one weapon type. I mean they're not classes and thus they are not weapon types. It wouldn't be hard for them to program a different weapon types to be usable by the same class.
they said somewhere way back, that your job class would be equal to your level on the main class, they could change it, but this is what they said. if you are a 50 glad you are a 50pld. there was some uproar because some people wanted to relevel classes.

Im not against jobs having special weapon types, but to be honest it seems unlikely. it would mean that the work they put into the class specific weaponskills animations was semi wasted. I mean if you look at doom spike, it would make no sense with a scythe. But really it would mean they did a whoooolllle lot of work on jobs, or plan too which, i dunno doesnt seem like how they work so far, most of the things we have seen have been in game or previously designed stuff.

I just dont see it based on what they have told us. Though i wouldnt complain if jobs had more weapon options.It could be pretty cool. but it doesnt seem likely

Even if this is the case, and we get multiple and new weapon types, i still say that image right there be a polearm.
