New Classes?

[Yana-Chan]

Hai, so i had a couple of suggestions about new classes? so i was thinking of maybe having a class that could shape shift and it would be a tank? and another, was a elemental mage that could summon. ik we already have a summoner, but like a summoner that could summon every element? and their attack would be the element they are using so maybe have a skill that changes the element your using randomly? I was also thinking about a new race maybe something with wings? just some suggestions

One problem is that every class currently is an already existing class from a past Final Fantasy game. There are plenty of classes missing from the roster currently, but none that match those descriptions.

Maybe Geomancer for the elemental bit, but that would be location based and essentially broken, let alone hard to play. Or Blue Mage, but they would only use the abilities of Primals, not transform into them.

Don't be discouraged though, suggestions are always a good thing, they sprout further ideas. I recommend looking into older, not currently in classes from past franchises and finding ways to make them fit. Like Samurai, Pirate, or Red Mage.

A geomancer tank would be a cool idea, I made one, link below, that I really need to update, lol.

Would Puppet Master work as a new tank? Unlike FFXI's version, they could make the automaton twice the size of a Hyur (the size of a Roegadyn)and since the automaton from FFXI could adapt to variety of different situations, FFXIV Puppetmaster's automaton could adapt it's defenses to fit the current situation it and it's user is in. It could also work as a sub tank as well.

Dancer class would be another good one. It could provide support similar to Astrologian with enhancements (along with minor or decent healing) and cause various status ailments to enemies like Ninja and Summoner/Scholar. It's enhancements and status ailment moves wouldn't be as strong as the other classes, but in a way, would be the middle class that could support all the other ones.

I heard they wanted samurai to be be potential tank, and rune Knight.

Lol I wanna learn akh morn... Splat... OK I how bout dive bombs!!! Splat..

[godwin]

Rune knight could work if it's DPS. Runes might function similar to mnks fists skills. Other prob be retooled drk moves

[Tenryou]

I wanna see Dancer come to XIV. Since blue mage and red mage seem to be lost to the world. Mostly cause i played XI but i think dancer would be unique to have. Could be a Dps/heal/support type based on stance if they want

I've been wanting a Civilian-type class, but I'm not sure how they would work that. I just want to carry an umbrella around, honestly.

the beastmaster but a bit changed instead of summoning pets like the summoner does his attacks could change body parts like right arms looks beastly when doing a attack etc
necromancer as healer a healer that looks evil with dark magic looking healing
