Red Mage = Yda?

[Shiki_Lockhart]

it's yda, but i doubt she is monk or red mage

all her move set don't match the monk style, more a dancer like. in the CG her movement are fluid and smooth, when monk in game are more about hard hitting attack than smooth movement. plus she have tons of kick, when monk (the midlander) is mostly fist. (fist of rahgr after all) she too use some attack with her clothes that look like dancer move.

Not entirely true. Are you forgetting that battle system will get reworked? It is possible that monk will kick more. And this is a movie, you don't need to follow monk skills at max detail but movie give more freedom than in-game animations.

Are we sure it's Derplander ? All we know is that he is hot as hell and a lot of player saw differences between the 2 of them that could hint to new customisation of charac or, as far as we know, a all new character.

I know it just a detail that can be explain by technology but Derp seems to have a scar on his forhead that the monk does not have and the face looks "longer" ^^"

he has the scar watch the trailer again

A flashback would then necessitate the Warrior of Light to be a time traveler. Which...I guess we are? We gave Cid his goggles and then there's the whole Alexander debacle...

The Warrior of Light has the Echo, which allows us to relive (and interact with) people's memories. If this is a flashback, it would be the lady in red's memory and not a case of time travel. What's missing is that annoying wavy colorless overlay they usually put on the Echo visions.

See how the tats are almost up to her chin there?



That choker wouldn't hide them.

Also yes, very...very bueno.

Game model, then there's a cinematic. We both could be wrong.

Yoshi P referred to him as the Warrior of Light during the Keynote when referencing the trailer.

Even ignoring the tattoo discrepancy, she looks too smart to be Yda.

This debate is silly and useless at best and proves there's no hope for this community.

I think you're thinking about this a bit too literally. I mean we're not talking about stopping to do the macarena in the middle of a battle. Dancing is flowing movement. A dancer class, as a DPS, could just simply be that. Martial arts style fighting, with fast movements that flow smoothly from one technique to the next. Maybe a little footwork to be done.

Add a blade into their hand, and the flowing movements can become a quick flurry of slicing and dicing without having to worry about stopping to reposition their body parts. one strike leads into the next, one body movement flowing into another. it'd make good contrast to the brute force style of monk, and the spastic dagger flailing of ninja.

I know xD
Yet, if it's what you say, this is not a Dancer then, but more like a monk-ish. :/
