Yoshida mentioned something in his convo (after visting event room) ...

Please no he will ridicule it. I prefer a malevolent train which rides us into our doom and fight happens on that train on the move. I got bored of circular rooms with the boss in the middle. leviathan tried to bring a new mechanic in the environment and it was fun. For doom train I prefer a fight on the train as it moves. Nobody really knows how they will use Doomtrain in this game. Time will tell.

IV never played the ff game where this was in I saw a video and I think it just would look really weired as a plane fight.

Instead maybe a dungeon where you have to clear each train car. And at the end maybe Bigs and Wedge can appear on a hand cart and you fight the engine on that.

This would be pretty neat just from a progression standpoint going through multiple platforms to get to the end.

Red Mage probably will end up as mage DPS who can buffs the entire party with AOE enspells, and more enfeeble, thus fall in line to the Bard + Mech in party set up. Otherwise, if they put Red Mage as healer who can buff the party, it will be competing with AST, and you will have another uproars on healer forum. They could also take approach of FFXI Sch, and turning RDM who can select stance before joining the duty finder, either as healer, or DPS - but then we may have another revolt from those Arcanists....

Personally, I'd love to see a samurai or red Mage as a melee "support dps", but with different support skills than bards and mch. We don't need another TP/MP battery.

While I'd prefer Samurai as a dps, I'd take a tank as well.

Yoshi basically already said Blue mage was a no go right now but red mage was possible and that it won't be what people expect.

Won't be what people expect was actually in reference to the gun class iirc. Which in the end wasn't what people expected lol.

I'd definitely would like to have Doomtrain operate like the Phantom Train. Dungeon on the inside, then outside fighting the engine.

I have always wanted this to be a thing since before 2.0 came out. It would be really cool to be trapped in the train, work your way through each cart, some containing bosses, then you fight the train at the end kind of like Bismark. It would be very easy to put a FFXIV spin on it.

Or an idea what someone else said, have Doomtrain be involved in the Hildibrand quest. I'm also fine with it being a straight up primal fight also.

Like that?

Whole fight inside the damn train. Obnoxious camera angles and all.

WoW is unusual. The original set up was basically normal races (Humans/Elves/Dwarves/Gnomes) vs monsters (Orcs/Trolls/Minotaurs/Undead). Most other MMOs tend to be closer to how FFXIV does it.

EQ(predates FFXI) had lizards, cats, ogres and trolls.

Literally. And frogs. EQ2 has frogs and rats on top of two types of lizard and cats. And vampires. And an actual friggin dragon.

Edit because post limit.
