    New class idea!

    I think it would be a nice addition if we got another class that works kind of like Blue Mage does, where the class is just obviously very powerful and wouldn't be useable in basic content in the same sense Blue Mage is. It would be called Beastmaster and its' main-hand weapon would be a crossbow. The entire gimmick behind this class would be the ability to "tame" beasts that are of comparable LVl to the player and each beast would have its own unique set of skills that would aid you in battle from normal dps moves to buffs with maybe some heals thrown here or there. It would sort of be like a higher variety Summoner. What do you all think?

    I just wish for a 4th DPS ranged real Gun class that specializes in modern firepower, Gatling guns, pistols or rifles, Missiles you know the basic scifi setting.

    Brace yourselves, the anti-Limited Job crowd are gonna be all over this like flies on dung in a minute.

    Bozja already has Beastmaster enemies. Assuming we take them as the standard, XIV's version would be melee-focused and wield one-handed axes and shields.
    Pity really, some of us were hoping to see whips represented.

    Depending on how the "taming" mechanics work this could be pretty fun~

    Ok the next time someone suggest a job I wanna see a spread sheet, if you can’t make it work with at least 20 skills, it’s too shallow of a concept. Hate hearing “NEW JOB” and then just explaining it in a sentence or two

    Tbh just sounds like you want BLU to be in leveling content rather than a new job concept

    IDK man it's near to hear people's ideas regardless of if they bring "a spreadsheet" or even a fully formed idea.
    It's fun to hash things out and that's a lot of what the community here does.

    I am not opposed to a "hunter" type class like Beastmaster as long as I can level it normally. I will absolutely not throw my support behind another limited job, however.

    Well cuz most Job concepts are too shallow to really branch out hence why a collective set of skills and mechanics, people say “gunner plz” then get lost in thot coming up with 7 skills

    Maybe, but demanding "20 skills in a spreadsheet or don't don't bother" is a but much...

    While some job ideas are rather bare bones, people should feel welcome to bring less than a fully concepted out kit to us.
