Still Excited for More Limited Jobs?

[BillyKaplan]

Why not? why would you want Dancer, a historically unique buffing job that learns it's skills from other dancers to be a cookie cutter healer/melee DPS, they'd just be the same as [Insert Melee or Healer here] that's not fun.

I think everyone missed the /s you didn't add.

Joining the general motion not wanting more Limited Jobs, unless they were XIV exclusive. At least then it would be easier to accept as a mini-game instead of a job people have been expecting and now are locked out of.
The Postmoogle Carrier that was brought up is a good example, even if it shows that you don't even need to make it anything more than it is, basically a bunch of quests. The irony is that with the duties they programmed for it, a case can be made about how it's more of a solo job than BLU, with how much you need to rely on other people to get BLU's skills...

I think Beastmaster is the only job where people might be upset if it wasn't limited, since it has such a rep for being a solo job from FFXI.

And then it will be about as solo as the BLU we got, relying on level x0s to carry them through content so they can get their stuff...? Let's face it, the really interesting enemies are all duty-locked in this game, and I doubt they'd make solo versions of half their existing content just for a Limited Job.

Pretty sure just about all enemy types exist outside of dungeons.
It would be very stupid to make it so that the stats and skills would be determined by which exact enemy you get captured...

Like crabs are a common enemy, using them as an example, it shouldn't matter which crab you go ahead and get as a Beastmaster, just a random low level or a dungeon boss, it should always have the same skills and stats as other crabs. Just have it scale to their job level.

I am. It might be not work in raids, but we have like two dozen jobs already. Everyone should find several for their liking. So if we get a few odd races that are only good for shits and giggles, I'm totally in. One shoting Morbols twice my level was quite fun. It might not stay fun for long, but I really liked doing it.

[Lastelli]

Actually, I'm quite scared.

[MrKimper]

I'd like a freelancer limited job, or a caravaneer that let's us talk more to npc and learn more location lore.

[Tsumdere]

Heck to the no.

Limited jobs so far are lazy and useless. We'll just get every remotely different job relegated to minigame status and nothing will ever break the endgame mold.

[Shougun]

Jobs that come with limited content, absolutely yes. A job that is just limited, I'd rather not.


To add- that their limited ideas could be put into other systems I'm just saying I'd rather they not take classic jobs (blue mage, beastmaster, etc) and make them exclusively limited.

[Videra]

I'll pass, chief.

I never was in the first place!
