Current Job Population?

There must be way more bards on the aether datacenter than primal because I am always surprised when I run into one in duty finder over here (or see them in town). War/drk, nin and whm are the most common jobs in my experience. Smn/drg for DPS after nin then blm then mch/bard and sch/ast probably equal. Pld is definitely less used of the tanks.

Imaging how much this will change once 4.0 is out....

i see warriors , drgs , and smn everywhere...is no wonder....this 3 jobs are at the top of the food chain.... Smn revamp helped , and Wars got lot of love in 3.0 (stole all the pld love i guess).

While I've chosen to main Machinist now since it interests me more than other Jobs depending on how Red mage and/or Samurai is handled as a DPS Job will certainly determine if I switch to them or not in 4.0.

However, if a Gunblade user Job is ever released in the future I just may switch to that as my main.

I've been searching for a Melee DPS Job that would peak my interests but so far the current melee DPS Jobs do not give me the feel to motivate me enough to main one of them.

I like both monk and dragoon at the moment as my melee choice. But will see about samurai.
