    Next New Jobs after Dawntrail are likely Aiming/Striking

    If you had to pick any job from these two categories, what would you pick?

    Personally I would pick Ranger, or Corsair for aiming. Something that ticks a different box than what we already have.

    For Striking, I would pick some kind of a druid class. Most people think that druids should be casting, and while I don't disagree that a caster druid shouldn't be implemented, there are examples in media of a fighting druid type. I was thinking a nature themed job that wields tomahawks. The class that fits the bill the most in my opinion is Hawkeye. https://bravelydefault.fandom.com/wi...Bravely_Second)

    In Japan this class was themed after Native Americans, but in the west it had a cowboy look. I think the best compromise for this job would be to use the New World as inspiration, making it a second New World type of job (After Viper), but checking with Native Americans in the real world when building the lore around them, in order to not be offensive. I love the idea of a Native American inspired job in the game, and I think if done with precision, it would be a great addition.

    Honestly the Bravely series, as well as the Octopath series does really well with coming up with new jobs, and should be a source of inspiration for FFXIVs future in my opinion. https://bravelydefault.fandom.com/wiki/Y%C5%8Dkai this alternative take on summoner is great for example~ Or how they handled the spell fencers~ https://bravelydefault.fandom.com/wi...avely_Default))
