Really wish..

I am talking about dps with big 2 handed swords like greatswords (buster sword) , two handed axes or maces. Yes katanas are two handed swords but it is not what I am talking about. I just would like to play a dps job that fits the “warrior” or “berserker” archetype that almost ever other mmo/rpg has. I personally feel this would be amazing to play in this game with how smooth and fun the combat system is.

The answer right now is that there's very little precedent that any weapon (because we're past talking about jobs when you just want to wield a weapon archetype) is used by multiple jobs, let alone multiple roles. Scholar and Summoner right now are the only two that both use the same weapon, and they branch off of a single class--which itself is something SE said they don't want to do ever again. You could argue WHM and BLM share weapons as well, and they are separate jobs entirely--and that's fair enough, but that philosophy has never been iterated upon.

Would it be cool (and reduce a lot of fan rage) if weapons weren't locked to their respective job / role? Absolutely! Unfortunately, I don't see this design changing anytime soon.

True would be nice, but I also agree that it is highly unlikely that it will ever happen. I personally think it would be super fun in the game if they ever did introduce more flexibility in weapons jobs could use and/or introduce a true two handed dps job as I previously described. Either way I still love the game and am having a blast on my ninja and still really excited to level my samurai and warrior. Then explore a lot of the other cool jobs.
