THF

mm?
which part of the THF OP like?
I thought we already have some elements in game that is THF-like (vs ff11), such as blindside~=SA. Used to have something like TA but that's before 1.20. so TA, treasure hunter and steal is missing. But, nm pops every 3-5 mins...moogle and ifrit reward is from chest...

and I thought everyone is a SAM (vs ff11) in here already... tp gain skill is low lv and combo requires 0 tp for later ws...

There's nothing like THF in the game atm. THF was CC/puller. That was a different style of gameplay with static camps and not the roaming type, but CC is still missing. I, for one, would love to see CC next.

On an opinionated note. No, I don't want to see Thief OR Ninja in any capacity in XIV.

On a logical note based on the development of the game: we need at least one or two more mage classes, a ranged, and one or two pet classes.

Suggestions:

Arcanist/Geomancer
Mystic/Time Mage
Sage/Summoner
Flayer/Beast Master
Musketeer/Gambler

Above all, I'd love to see a non-melee Blue Mage.

This is what I want to see for mages:
Class | Job
Evoker (Pet class, DD/????) -> Summoner (Pure DD)
Arcanist (Terrain AoE Mage, DD/Debuff) -> Geomancer (Pure Debuff)
???? (Time/Space Mage, DD/Buff) -> Time Mage (Pure Buff)

* What I meant by 'Pure' was that that was what the job specialized in.

I tried to google CC... I get closed capturing, Creative Commons, and Comedy Central (<3).
We do need some Comedy Central here. People are way too serious here...

XD I know you are talking about crowd control from your previous post. But,
this is the first time I heard thf is for crowd control tho.
maybe a mage that specialized debuff, poison, slow, sleep will fit better.

this reminds me our thm in LS used to run into moogles and blizzara right after king's 2hr thing...it works pretty well for like 30 secs.

There was an interview (I think from the time where Yoshi-P was doing a press tour after 2.0 announcement) where Yoshi specifically said that they were thinking of making a Thief class that had Ninja as the job. Someone help me out with a link if you got it. This sounds like an awesome idea to me, and I would love for them to do it. As for when? Well its unfortunately like others are saying. Yoshi has said a few times that they want to add what is "needed" first in terms of classes. So yes that means more mages or pet classes first, and thats why they havent come out with (and wont come out with it any time soon) Muskateer. Even though there is already a guild for it.

That sounds good to me. I hope they'd add a bunch of new lowbie armor for Thf like masks and stuff so I could look cool while leveling it.

Thanks for the info Amsai! Very cool

We wants link

[Theplatter]

Again though, why should/would they only release one class/job at a time? Why not 2-3, so we get caster + pet class or caster + pet + scout?

I think the term crowd control is inaccurate for Thief. It was hate control. Thief could not manage multiple mobs on
it's own. Crowd Control was typically a Mage job mostly falling on Rdm, Brd or Sch.
