How a Shapeshifter Could Work in FFXIV

[Kazrah]

I don't think shapeshifters really fit into the lore. However a caster tank would be cool. Also you are super creative! You should be working for a gaming company.

Thanks! I did have another concept for a caster tank, but Green Mage has a bit of difficulty differentiating itself thematically with what we have for White Mage in FFXIV. I am curious though as to why you think a shapeshifter wouldn't fit into the lore, especially since lore can usually be curbed so some concepts could be implemented.

Please do point out where I ever said it was impossible, because I absolutely never did.

You may not have said it, but the negative attitude you've displayed in every single post you've put into this thread certainly screams it in volumes. Just makes me glad that it's not the whiny pessimists who make this game better than its competitors, but the optimists who can take fascinating--sometimes even different ideas--and put them into the game.
