[carlosx]

lets pls sign petition pls.... support the cause

we really need a DPS rol, it can even share job with drk XD or be a separate class.

We are getting Red Mage and Samurai. It's already happening.

I know Red Mage (Or some variation) is all but confirmed, but did they actually confirm Samurai? I don't recall seeing any actual teasers or dev comments on it.

Also @OP you won't be seeing any more classes, they're moving away from that. They realized after changing it in 2.0 that it was too restricting in new, fresh job creation.

Well Yoshi P did say he really wanted it to happen. It's not official confirmation, but it's more confirmation than we've got of other things except maybe blue mage.

No need for a petition, just wait for the other two fanfests first.

Samurai has the 2nd highest chance of being a new job in Stormblood, behind Red Mage (all but confirmed). It'll probably happen.

[Claire_Pendragon]

considering the most popular/requested jobs were;
THF, SAM (only really asked for in the west really), and RDM (mainly asked for by the JP)
With THF being the most asked for, we got ROG/NIN.
They said "Caster DPS" was the 2nd most asked for, but we never got that, other than MCH/BRD. (Musketeer being 5th in line, but barely asked for)
And SAM was replaced by DRK, and AST replaced Time Mage, which replaced RDM.

So just because people ask for it like crazy, doesnt mean we'll get it.

(Similar to how Yoshi asked what race, and everyone wanted a mammalian demi human, like viera, and Yoshi wanted straight up inhuman lizard people. Well, he settled on semi lizard people, because its what he wanted.)

[Kiteless]

A considerable number of people want SAM, but a lot of people have wanted SAM for a while, and that didn't stop it from getting cut from Heavensward for the DRK.

I don't need more weeaboo in my life, give me BLU instead.

[Belhi]

I think SAM is likely for Stormblood but it will be interesting to see what role it fills cause Red Mage will almost certainly be a dps and adding multiple dps Jobs without adding a tank and healer are going to do horrible things to the dps queues.
