[Job Creation] Time Knight

[Ceasaria]

Hi, I want to share with you my 3rd and last job of this expansion Stormblood.
Dryad (healer) and Meteorologist (dps) were shared on their respective forum last year, but because Time Knight (tank) is my last, I wanted to share it where there are more people (all the jobs are on one document).

I have changed a bit how I organize my informations in the google sheet.
Indeed, I'm afraid that too much informations could stop people reading the document.
I don't think I will change for my healer and dps, though (or maybe later).


My intentions : I think my first though has been to demonstrate that a job with the time theme can existe despite the presence of the Astrologian (which possess this theme too). Afterwards, I was thinking about Quartz and Demi for a tank version, and I knew I wanted to do a tank. After, my second thought has been to do a Noctis combat style (FFXV), and because he generates some kind of illusions with his attacks, I had chosen to do this for my Time Knight. Because of his dynamical agile aspect, I implement that for my tank too, so I needed to create a new type of tank : dexterity tank (instead of strength). When I began all of this, it was before Stormblood, so there wasn't role actions. So, I improvised by creating one specifically for dexterity tanks.
I have tried to mix illusions with time of the best I could and I am satisfied of the result, mostly after the time past to look how to do two kind of stances (Scission and Decoy), and a whole illusion system which functions. The goal is to have a new type of tanking, original and ambitious.


Time Knight Story : When the 1st calamity struke the Source, all the history of the world has been forgotten and disappeared forever. To avoid such tragedy in the future, courageous and valiant survivors created a secret order, guardians and conservators of the memory of the Source and his reflections.
Charge to watch and protect their timeline, the Time Knight is a discipline that so few known about because of his extreme rarity, considering often as a myth or even a legend.
However, feeling a great threat emerging in the First and his repercussions on the Source, they appeared again hoping to find new disciples desirous to learn the art of controlling and protecting the time.


So, what is a Time Knight ?

A tank manipulating time granting him the capacity to attack and move faster, to slow and stop enemies.
Furthermore, a new system based on illusions allows him to transfer his enmity to them, exchange his position with them, do more damages, and absorbe them to generates several effects.
We can see illusions as past and future versions of the Time Knight.
