Thread: 7.0 Poster Class

I'm not saying I dislike the idea, but isn't that already covered by Paladin?

That DPS has a blue background, though. He's looking for a Red DPS.

Definitely Reaper cause it will be a void expansion. Literally the only "reasonable" choice.

Unless we get a caster based around void magic, similar to Golbez himself.

Idk, i don't think caster goes well with the WoL/Meteor aesthetic SE is going with. It's always melee so i doubt that it will be ever any caster job.

I would like to see the WoL as a caster tho or finally another ranged job.

Personally I like the idea of being a farmer as the poster job, just vibing on Island Sanctuary. Free from the burden of saving Planet XYZ all the time. Not gonna happen tho. Imagine the trailer pops ups showing this scenery I described and then the WoL transforms into the new battle job in one fight scene. A new caster job is long overdue. I actually find the argument that casters are not poster job material flawed, look at the ARR mage for example who is on the games frontside. They just need a caster who feels dynamic and powerful and is potentially able to shapeshift. Could also be summoner in 7.0 with another rework.

Obviously the solution is to finally add a melee caster.

I just wanna do the whole Gravity Magick thing Golbez does in the Dissidia games. He was throwing meteor sized rocks at Cloud, man! D':

Should either be Sholar or Summoner because books are cool.

In the trailer he (the WoL) will be a machinist working on the on the airship taking us to new lands. As the airship travels it will be attacked by 'the swarm', and insectoid race that will serve as the expansion's primary antagonist. During the attack the WoL deploy drones, shields, and other technical gadgets to protect the ship. Unfortunately, it is not enough and the ship crashes on the new continent where we will begin our journey. The situation looks grim, but the machinists unique talents and automated weapons systems make the ideal job for dealing with the threat of the swarm, who attack in enormous numbers at great speed and have hardened carapaces are resistant to more traditional weaponry.
