So... that spiderman shirt... (new job tease)

[GMERC]

......How the hell did you get that??? Also what did you mean Gmerc?

I think I'll go with the the previous thread idea, that its freelancer, since Spiderman works as one. Not to mention SE did say they were revamping the crossclass skills.

I legit cracked up seeing this, and read it in that voice...

I want to believe in the Sam Raimi theory, simply because I at least can imagine forcing myself to play Samurai.
My dislike for both Redmage and Bluemage is so big that I can't deal with the thought of 2/2 jobs being something I won't ever play x.X

If, in some convoluted way, it was actually meant as a hint to an acrobatic class like Dancer, Juggler and the like, I'd be incredibly happy, but..idk...seems unlikely.

It was in the key note at London.

If you have access to that live stream or can find it you can most likely see it.

I watched the keynote and I believe you misunderstood me.

Again AST seems highly unlikely to be the intent behind the 007 shirt. It was solely to hint at MCH. The Solitaire character from 1 movie out of 25 at the time, is just too far out there for players to predict considering how Yoshi has used these shirts. You also have to consider AST debuted in XIV. Why it was such an unexpected surprise during its reveal in Tokyo.

[Lufir]

Well, because all the previous shirts have never been like that. Batman was the Dark Knight, 007 was MCH and AST (Cuz James Bond uses a gun and AST as the tarot villain in live or let die) Scarlet Witch , Red Mage...all of them have had to do with fictional characters related to the shirt. Not actors, directors, writers...etc. This would be the first time, which is possible but hence.."Far fetched"

This is the first time I've heard that AST's reveal was tied to the 007 shirt. This has to be an assumption because that is more far fetched than the Sam Rami debate XD Especially simply because of a villain who plays cards in a James Bond movie? That's like saying AST was revealed because of his Batman shirt that linked to the animated series' Time King/Clock King villain. We can find anything if we want to get crazy.

Spider Man's love is Mary Jane
Mary Jane = marijuana
Marijuana = drug
Drug = chemist
Chemist confirmed

Also it slipped that there will be 3 jobs...(You can find this on the reddit megathread) so I am still thinking SAM and DNC.

link? /10char

yoshida trolling and ppl take it so serious like its the word of god, they're like oh sam raimi so samurai right? and yoshi is like well there's also that other director whats his name webb, so maybe its a webb-er job spider webb-er and ppl are like ITS A WEB JOB ITS GOT WEBS CONFIRMED probably not just him deflecting or being funny making a joke about the other director marc WEBB to try and defelect that hey did you guys think maybe its not samurai its marcwebb-er job? cos what else is he gonna say, yeah you got me within 10 seconds gg guys?

that being said a samurai with a net like a web to cc mobs, id be down with that

[Gourry]

blu got talked about as a concept in a recent interview and yoshida was considering how it would fit into the game, so its not gonna be blu just yet, yosida came out said he liked the original trilogy with sam director, theyre properly not adding 2 dps and nothing else that would be stoopid, the "slip up" tweet saying only 2 jobs, like they removed it within seconds cos it was a MISTAKE like if they accidentally leaked it was gonna be 2 jobs this xpac ONLY then why not just let it ride like oops we fucked up but there we are, so im going with 3 jobs, ppl supporting the blu theory cos there is a ton of blue mage references in xiv like names and stuff from xi, that already got confirmed in an interview a while ago that there was no connection directly like that just happened to be like that

[Gourry]

I think that blue mage is an interesting job because you can learn spells from enemies, but honestly I don't think that it really fits MMORPG party settings. If anything, I think it would work solo and it would be really fun to implement it as a job where you go around and learn abilities from every monster, so I'd definitely like to try and do this, but I'm concerned when it comes to playing in a party players would put up barriers if you haven't learned certain abilities. Additionally, in the event you are able to use abilities forever once you learn them, the difficulty of learning abilities would be high, and we wouldn't be able to balance the system so it wouldn't revolve around procuring your abilities instead of equipment. This wouldn't be practical enough to fit in an MMORPG party setting and conversely if you are swapping in only certain abilities you've learned, the true image of a blue mage would diminish, so this is something that I am concerned with. -LetterLIVE 08/23/2014
