What class are you looking forward to?

When I see the idea of Redmage, what can we really expect them to do that's not already covered by black mages? Only thing I can think is giving them a Rapier and make them a melee type who uses Int as its main stat. The attacks being basically increased "elemental" swords. Say basic strike could be a flame sword, following the combo the fire grows on the sword allowing branching choices of perhaps a strong single strike or a "flare" burst from the sword tip for AOE. Just my idea on it to make it something other than a Blackmage/Whitemage.

I do admit Spell Fencer from Bravely Default would be an excellent start for them to build the class up for. Not a fan of Blackmage but also the idea of a "mobile" mage in a way catches my interest.

That fits in to my idea of the Spell Fencer that I mentioned above, if you feel so inclined, look up the Spell Fencer from the game Bravely Default. It could work really well if done correctly.

Plus, I think more games need a melee class that carries a single one handed melee weapon with no offhand. The one handed fighting style is definitely underdone and a red mage casting magic with a rapier could work really well.

I'd like to see samurai (tank or dps, don't really care).

Would be nice to have a physical ranged pure dps job: ranger. The "support" bard has, kills it for me. They can never make it a pure dps with the utility it has. It would be 2.0 all over again with stacking bards (or machinists now).

I truly feel that Samurai if introduced would come from Doma. If this were the case, it would only makes sense that they would be Tanks as we already see the Ninja is a DPS. To believe that such a large majority of the Doman military force were only suited to only one role seems not only awkward, but also feels uninspired. Furthermore as we already have Monk as a DPS aswell, the eastern themed DPS niche seems to be well covered. I do feel sword DPS should be implemented however and would enjoy seeing some iteration of a dual wielder sword class/ job introduced. I feel Red Mage and or Blue Mage would fit the bill quite nicely. In looking at the way Astrologian was introduced, it's not out of the question that we may already be seeing new classes in the game. Ala Mhigan Shamans and Sword Dancers already exist in some fates aswell as there being supported lore about Lancers.

In short I feel sometime in the series we may see Samurai as a Tank before the next expansion. Perhaps a lead up to 4.0 addressing Ala Mhigo where we may see:

Lancer = Templar (Lance and Shield) Tank

Blade Dancer = Red/ Blue Mage (Dual Swords) DPS

Shaman = Geomancer (Axe/ Mace and Shield, Dual Axe,/ Mace, Two handed Hammer) >.> Melee Healer... Yes alot like that other game...

[Kotemon]

I's like to see Samurai, Geomancer, Onion Knight (as a reward job/class with cross abilities from all lv 50+ job/class), Wizard or Warlock, and some form of Sword Mage and/or Hunter/Beast Master.
