Alisaie becomes the new job.. my prediction

[Reinha]

Estinien is already melee and he's been gone for a while. I bet he's going to show up before the expansion with a new weapon.

I can see Zenos getting the Reaper job

[Hanayumi]

Yeah also think Zenos will be a variation of the new job, he tossed out his last sword and is looking for a new weapon.

My money's on Estinien. Alisaie already had her trade up when she went to RDM.

[Raiya]

Aliasae doesn't need to become a new job, she basically became a RDM while Alphy was still essentially playing Arcanist/not-SCH all this time. He was overdue a proper job change anyways. She just needed new threads is all.

[Payadopa]

RDM is her new job, she already changed jobs in SB.

Didn't she change before, though? I believe it was in one of the patches leading up to SB. The scene were she pulls that sword out of her book.

Yoshida said in the showcase she wasn't going to change jobs, just attire, he also said that Estinien is the first Trust using the Dragoon job and said Zenos' sudden change in appearance has a "very good reason behind it." Specifically pointing out his armor —which he used to wear Legatus armor, akin to fending gear as a Samurai— looked a bit "lighter" than before. New job is confirmed to be using maiming gear, which is, in fact, lighter than the Legatus armor he had on previously.

I don't really get how people could think anyone but Zenos could be the new job when they haven't been subtle about it at all—he literally broke his weapon and said he needed to find something new. At this point its so in our faces that I don't really know how anyone can question it at this point? Sure, he could be rocking an NPC only job, but between the secrecy behind it and all the subtle hints, I think the likelihood of Zenos not being the new melee is exceedingly low.

The link is in there from the interview with Yoshi-P about the new melee job using DRG's gear. He stated it in an interview just after the announcement.
