Famitsu-
Musketeer Guild and Arcanist Guild in Limsa, can we get them as a class or job?

Yoshida: After balancing the class will release the jobs but with job release we will need to look at the part each players take in 8 people party and make sure battle and job balance is made well. We still have lots of thing we need to work on first after job system implementation so we can’t release classes such as Musketeer or Arcanist yet but we have a good settings for them so would like to implement them in the future.

Famitsu: What kind of class is Arcanist?

Iwao: It’s a sorcerer with scientific development. Originally planned as class that uses placement magic; NPC already has the staff that does this.

Yoshida: Placement type or traps for ground target is a concept that will be required even when thinking of PvP. I understand their isn’t much sorcerer but adding a class and making adjustments will be endless so first going to concentrate on adjustments to Conjurer and Thaumaturge.

Iwao: When we release the class we will also release job

Yoshida: Yes

Iwao: Want to expect something like Arcanist to Geomancer (laugh)

Yoshida: It has [FF] feel (laugh) Geomancer will need ground target type actions

Iwao: Environment from weather also
