    A class and a Job

    A class and job that i would like to see added.

    Class - Soldier Job- Judge
    Weapon - Dual Sword
    Arch Type - DD Tank or just DD

    I would like to see a Dual sword job added cause there really wasn't any in 11 and would bring in a new kinda view to the table. I know some will say Blue mage and Red mage could dual sword. Yes they could but only if they subbed ninja or Blue mage had the trait from the spells. But i mean an actually class actually based on 2 swords.

    To compete with GLA block and MRD parry Soldier could have counter. And to not copy Pugs haymaker it could have a different effect like bleeding or eva down.

    And Judge would just be the Job version of soldier. and the Class/Class could be Soldier/GLA or /MRD.

    I like the spirit of your post, but classes are weapon types. SE kind of limited themselves this way because now any Job that wants to use a sword has to be from GLA unless they split up swords, daggers and eastern blades to 3 different classes
    I don't think you'll ever see classes just for dual wield (Although my opinion means diddly squat)
    I'd think you'd see Jobs that allow dual wielding though
    or they'll just end up being extensions of the single wield of that weapon
    Like Yoshi P said he wants to give Musketeer some option (He didn't specify through a job, trait, item or just inherently part of the class) to dual wield guns

    I could see that... some Job allows it
    OR...
    maybe you equip a sword set in the main hand and the off hand becomes unavailable
    Like how 1 earring is really a pair now....
    The only thing with that is you wouldn't be able to mix and match different 1-hand swords

    True... that would be nasty....
    I've seen games gimp each stat when using 2 weapons...

    So each weapon would only do like 60% of its full power....
    So dual wielding might give you 20% more power but at the expense of some accuracy or something

    There has to be a trade off or else dual wield will be the only thing

    was thinking some penalty but anything to severe would make it worthless next to other tanks

    I think Strength for accuracy is always a viable tradeoff
    Some would prefer being stronger... others would want to miss less
