Holy knight

[Seraphor]

Going back to Templars, it would be cool to have a heavy-armored, javelin-weilding tank in the game. iirc, Tactics A2 had Templars like that.

But DRG wears heavy armour.

But DRG wears heavy armour.

Chain, they wear chain.

So far we have 4 armor classes, which I'll name as thus

Plate: 100/100 P/MDef. Fending. Paladin / Warrior / Dark Knight wear this.
Chain: 70/50 P/MDef. Maiming. Dragoon wears this.
Leather: 60/60 P/MDef. Strking/Scouting/Aiming. Monk, Ninja, Machinist, Bard wear this.
Cloth: 50/70 P/MDef. Casting/Healing. Casters and healers wear this.

I mean, yes. They do. I never said that they didn't? I suppose my wording might have been a bit off, but I simply meant Templar essentially being a jousting tank like in TA2 might be fun. Our current tanks don't have a ton of weapons diversity atm, since we have two types of sword and an axe (and I suppose the shield if you want to count it). I wasn't trying to suggest there were no other armor-clad spear wielders in the game.

I'd say Plate and Chain were both 'Heavy' amour.
My point is, we already have a spear user, who uses heavy armour, or the dps variant of it at any rate.
We're not likely to get another one.

This is something that always bums me out about this game. I'd love to see a geomancer dps with an axe, a Templar tank with a spear and shield tanks, chemist healers with guns, etc. But nope, can't share weapons with another class.

As for OP, I think holy knight would be awesome, focusing on holy sword skills rather than paladins defenses and wearing drg equivalent armor. AF could be the tabard over armor that the holy knights wear in tactics.

Welcome to the internet!

This is a game with a lot of players who do not speak English as their first language. If you can still understand what they're saying, I don't think there's an issue.

Shorten words?

If people are very vocal about it, I guess they could sell some sort of job glamour for skills. Like an entire set. The job doesn't change one bit but the animation do.

However I dunno how much it would cost considering they charge 5€ for a dress. 20€ I guess?

Anyway, it could go this way
DRK - holy theme
PLD - Magitech theme
WAR - no clue

WHM - no clue... Darkness?
SCH - Magitech too (robot fairy!!!)
AST - No more star... Clockwork!

BRD - elemental archer?
MCH - less flashy, some people complained

SMN - no clue except demibaha - > demi Alexander
RDM - replace some elements by others.
BLM - "ice mage" sounds too simple, I guess some sort of void magic, like some sort of dark fire etc.

I mean, while I don't think something like this would ever happen.

To me it seems more likely than them adding a holy dark knight as a new job. (I mean, there's still Templar but I don't forsee any new tank for 6.0, so 7.0 would be a looonng wait) and I don't think they'd go for a theme one of the tank already has (holy). If anything they'd save the spot for a dps as no dps has the holy themed attached to it.
