    I think I have an Idea of the next Melee Class!

    So I been grinding and just playing The southern warfront, I see the new relic gear and it makes us all look like Judges An iconic and very bad ass job now My brain kinda Clicked and looking at Yoshis shirt We see a grim reaper and people jumped on Necro and all that but Listen follow me on this one The grim reaper does what? He judges whether it is your time to die or not correct?

    Could Judge be the next heavy Maiming job?!?!?! it fits right?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!

    I thought about that, with how obtuse the shirt hints can be, having the Grim Reaper could be in the sense that he is seen as the Judge of the Dead. I also think that with the recent Law's Order gear sets released in 5.45, having the Maiming gear set the most accurate to Judge Gabranth, the most iconic Judge in the Ivalice games, could be a hint to it.





    It could also be a neat way to give us a version of the mystic knight/spellblade/rune fencer, since they also were magically inclined, like when Judge Ghis was loading up a Flare before it being absorbed into the nethicite the party had.

    Unfortunately Judge is already taken - it's what the GMs are (their gear is literally called 'Judge' gear - Yoshi's alter ego The Wandering Minstrel also wears the latter attire). This is further reinforced by how in the Garlean Empire the supreme commanders are called 'Legatus' not Judge (despite otherwise being FFXII's Judges in all but name).

    Just like Onion gear practically precluding any Onion Knight job in the game, due to the GMs already taking Judge as theirs I don't see Judge appearing as a player Job alas.

    I don't think GM gear players never see will preclude any jobs from happening. Back when gunblade was announced as the next job weapon, speculation was that we'd get a Garlean mentor or magitek knight job to explain why that is, but they just wholly invented a new race and ancient history of the gunblade that it turns out Garleans stole as to why we have a the Gunbreaker job, so they could easily do the same thing saying that Judges were an ancient order from Landis that Garlemald appropriated when they conquered them.

    Oh I think this is going to be the right answer

    They could dual wield swords which would be great so they don’t have to add more assets to the game

    The magic they could use can look a bit more nuetral so they don’t lean to far over to dark knight or paladin.

    I think it’s cute of them to make the armor for Bozja as a hint

    This also reminds me of the way a lot of the garleans look in game albeit with brighter colors.

    I don't mean offense but that one sounds like a leap, compared to other options. I'd go Judge before I go Magus Sisters (one sister has a scythe, sometimes, and with two reaper shirts that means the sisters are coming..?). And I wouldn't necessarily say Judge either since Reapers are not Judges, really, they are more like Charon- they ferry (guide) lost souls.

    They are also in the artwork for the new dungeon, with the oldest sister holding a scythe.
    And to be clear I don’t think they are going to be a job in the game, I just think his shirts were akin to his Bugs Bunny shirt in 2018.

    Also the to piggyback off Charon, the Sisters are based on the furies that also guide souls to the afterlife.

    With them also being fought in the Tower of Zot in FF4 I don’t think it’s a leap any more than the thought of a “reaper” class in a final fantasy is.

    That magus may be coming, I don't that is a leap, that the shirts were for them I do.

    Bugs bunny was for Viera, a pretty legendary announcement to make. Maybe it is just me but Magus sisters being added to the game literally adds nothing for me. It's not exciting news, or sort of news to care about, like Anima being added who is a big deal.

    The artwork that may relate magus only makes me think of Ranjit like situation even more since one had an elephant, adding further to that whole Sanskrit potential situation and as you said furies (making a job that is in essence Charon even more likely, The Fates are not like Charon (and they don't guide souls, they weaved fate hence they were called the Fates) - so there isn't an issue that both exist, if anything it supports it since the reference material of Fates obviously has a Charon). Of course other than Charon there is also Thanatos, they have some overlap in duties sometimes (Charon more dedicated guide obviously lol).

    Viera = big news, worth a shirt
    Magus sisters = ....kay? The possible evidence that they are coming I think is fine (from that other artwork), the evidence they are the shirt's reveal.. eh I just don't see it. I think if that was the reveal then Yoshida just made his shirts far less interesting to trust as big news. Shirts now could be introducing minor information. Especially given the situation they revealed Anima straight out already, a bigger deal than Magus sisters (making saving the shirts just for them seem even more, "are you trolling us?" If that was the case).

    Although like I said maybe I missed some legendary aspect about them (perhaps there is a huge fan base out there, to me the Sisters are just goofy characters with minor background stories that have showed up a few times- nothing that interesting). Still seems of a leap over other options, imo.

    As for the reaper part not sure where it is hard to imagine, except maybe for the fact it is called reaper? Of course they'd probably call it something else, especially if we're going with all this Middle Eastern / Indian influence (god of death for Indian's is Yama, Cindy in that art work, if that's Cindy, has an elephant head like Ganesh which is not a Yama feature), but the job concept of what a reaper does is noble and good (in the essence of order, duty of psychopomps).

    When we are on a scythes, all I can think of is job related to Ran'jit.
