I don't think they will give us 2 ranged and nothing for people who prefer to play at close range.
I would be very surprised if the 2 jobs in 7.0 are not one magical ranged and one melee DPS.

And I think they will do one "traditional FF job" and one "unique to XIV but inspired by FF history" job, as they did in both 5.0 and 6.0.
I am guessing Time Mage and something using a whip similar to Seven in Type-0.


Now when it comes to the next physical range, I am convinced it will be a crossbow-wielding Ranger, or another gun-wielding job since MCH is becoming more about machines than it is about guns.
The videos that was shown from Lost Ark here is basically Machinist to be honest.
