1.0-Archer
2.0-Warrior
3.0-Dragoon
4.0-Monk/Samurai
5.0-Dark Knight
6.0-Paladin
7.0-??
My money is on Bard. They are in need of a remake on the levels of Summoner and it would sort of drive home that the journey is off to a new start.

I'd like to believe they would go with black mage, it's high time a caster got some love as a poster child
It depends on what the theme for the next expansion will actually be, as Derplander's class choice in the trailers/propaganda for each expansion reflects that:
GLA/ARC for 1.0 representing a common choice of starting class a new adventurer might take up, and specifically showing him switching from GLA to ARC was meant to show the Armoury System at work.
WAR for 1.0's 'end' and into ARR as becoming the 'Warrior of Light'
DRG for HW representing the struggle against the dragons and the expansion being based around Ishgard
MNK and SAM for SB referencing Ala Mhigo and Doma/Hingashi and the Far East
DRK for ShB representing the 'Warrior of Darkness' moniker they took in the First to drive back the Eternal Light
PLD for EW to serve as a 'knight in shining armour', a beacon of light and hope in overwhelming darkness and despair of the Final Days (and also coming full circle back to 1.0 with GLA being his starting class, given PLD upgrades from GLA)
So whatever the next expansion will have as it's central theme or premise will undoutably serve as the 'poster class' for that.
Due to not yet knowing anything about the next expansion at this time, it's perhaps not really possible to speculate about what that might be, but ignore my defeatism in that regard.![]()
I'm putting money on it for once being a healer, namely Astrologian. Why? Because it's simple, nobody knows what will happen now that 6.0's story is done. Whatever happens in 7.0 may help us "divinate" what the overarching plot for "Season 2" will be.
Whatever the new job is.
It's always been a melee, so I'm going to go with Rogue/Ninja.
With characters going their separate ways and the WoL maybe leaning more towards taking up the mantle of Azem, being a traveller and wayfarer, on a journey to visit [The] New Worlds... a rogue seems fitting.
I'm so banking hard on the new class being Geomancer but we'll see
