Hints at new class? Maybe?

[Jonnycbad]

It's probably too early for hints. A new expansion will probably come out next summer, but we likely won't get any info about it until at least E3 in June, Tokyo Game Show in September, or potentially Fan Fest 2018 in November.

If we are going to Thavnair, there's a very very high chance we will at least get Blue Mage, given its near-eastern aesthetic and the fact that Blue Mage and Blue Magic has already been name dropped several times already. I have a feeling that Alphinaud will be the Scion's Blue Mage as Alisae was the Scions' Red Mage. He wears blue a lot, and has a blue hair tie. This is the very first time we ever meet the twins. Notice both of their color schemes. It was already foreshadowed that Alisae would be the Red Mage.

Doubtful Yoshi-P has no imagination for how a BLU can work in eorzea which is sad because it's a very unique job.

I wouldn't say Blue Mage because (of other reasons) there's one job that's even more likely due to what lore we know of the place as well as being among the top three in demand: Chemist, or at least something along those lines. Even if you're just looking at aesthetic components, Dancer would be even more likely due to gamers who think of dancers in a game are typically thinking of belly dancers that would fit into that visual theme (and it's also more demanded than Blue Mage).

Also, any real early foreshadowing content for jobs (including the Alisaie fight) wasn't until the x.4 patch, meaning that we'll probably have to wait another patch to get any real leads on new jobs

But Dancer and Blu is more popular and more players want those over Geo and Gunblade.
Also we have enough dps until 6.0 (Just my opinion).
If blu does get implemented i think it will be very different then what people would be expecting to fit FFXIV better.

Which is why i always caution people who are hyped about blu. much like with smn, it's probably going to get drastically changed to fit better.

All I can say about this.... is we better get a damn healer in 5.0

[Souljacker]

I'm hoping for puppetmaster. Ala Mihgo reminds me a lot of Aht Urgan and Lyse of Nashmeira (especially after that outfit change). She's clearly hand to hand, which makes sense.

Would be pretty cool, but they've made a pretty big point of not taking anything from XI in it's original form so... meh.

I want Corsair for some reason.

[CaptainLagbeard]

Since they're doing Ivalice for the raids, I'm kind of hoping for Ivalice related classes for the next expansion.

From the Tactics games mostly, since 12 didn't really do much in terms of new classes

Calling it now. Gunblade will share gear with Dragoon. Just like Sam shares gear with Monk. Furthermore, Gunblade will be the second job to add piercing debuff, making it another viable option besides Dragoon.
