WoL Job Headcanons!

[Cleretic]

My headcanon is that the canonical 'trailer Warrior of Light' is extremely self-centered and impatient. Consider: The closest thing he gets to playing support is starting as Archer in 1.0. However, the time we next see him in a cinematic is the End of an Era scene, where he's a Warrior. What happened between those two? Well, jobs got introduced and Archer became the support-angled Bard.

After this point, we see him with an even amount of experience with tanks (Warrior in 2.0, Dark Knight in 5.0, Paladin in 6.0) and melee DPS (Dragoon in 3.0, Monk and Samurai in 4.0). But note that through all of this the only melee DPS job he dodged, outside of Reaper which is one expansion old, was Ninja--the only melee DPS with low personal damage output, because it's designed with more of an angle to support. Dragoon got more of that later with Dragon Sight, but remember that came in Stormblood, and the WoL was only a Dragoon in 3.0. In fact, only with 6.0 has Trailer WoL actually touched a job with cast times.

This is completely unrelated to the thread, but there's my WoL job headcanon: that Trailer WoL is the kind of guy that outright refuses to play anything that he doesn't perceive as 'party leader'.
