    Next Tank Job?

    What do you think the next tank job will be? I am curious what the next tank job will be since I heard samurai was a tank job back in FFXI.

    Sorry if there was already a thread like this I couldn't find it.

    Gist summary of the last one was that no one wants another job because they can't balance the 3 they have lol. I'm not sure what the next one will be but I'ma throw the dice toward a hammer wielder, either magitek or the Viking job. No basis other than Grynewaht having a hammer.

    Samurai also wasn't a tank job, SE intended it to be but it played better as a DD and SE accepted that and stated giving them lots of DD gear after a while.

    Samurai wasn't and still isn't a tank job in FFXI. A magical tank, Rune Fencer, is and I'd say it's a good candidate for next tank.

    Considering that Samurai has and still has seigan along with third eye, access to heavy armor with -% damage taken on it, counter attacks, samurai was and still is a tank in FF11. And should have been a tank in 14, with DPS options to mimic it's 11 counter part. Other wise they normally served as good back up tanks while maintaining DPS and prior to the abyssa launch took on a good deal of end game bosses where TP feeding was not a issue.

    Dancer would be great ... Saber Dance and Fan Dance for DPS/Tank stance would fit perfectly ...
