I think a Drk could make sense as a sword/shield user. It could be a tank that takes more damage, but holds hate better, and keeps itself alive with absorb spells, enfeebling, and damaging/healing spikes, as well as delivering more damage than a Pld (but not quite on par with a normal DD).

I do agree though. The current class system makes it tough. But there are definitely job combinations that could work if they decide to keep this route. Arc obviously flows well into Rng. Mnk could flow into a Dnc type char... Or.... Pup. It COULD work. I prefer consistency over them releasing more jobs with a mish-mash of skills taken from a mishmash of classes. But it might have to happen.
