Krile and Pictomancer

[Lieri]

Didn't seem any more forced than any other character's job changes over previous expansions to me. Like Thancred going from a stealth recon expert to a tank because....we needed a tank for Trusts and that's about it.

Thancred becoming a GNB was a gigachad move. He's done playing now he wants to protecc (fits ShB theme with Rhyne). And he couldnt use magic anymore so he fought with aether infused bullets. It makes so much sense and not forced at all because the lore setup began in ARR.

Yes, it made perfect sense for him to pick up a job he can't use properly without help because he can't charge his own ammo.

He took up the skill before he went to the First though – his tutor is a Bozjan Hrothgar and IIRC it's said or implied that they met while Thancred was doing reconnaissance in Ilsabard.

The job itself is forced. Let alone Krile being shoehorned into it. However, we all know that only a Lalafell would take on this job and Krile is the only who fits the bill. It can't be Tataru as she is all about commerce and handles financial affairs for the Scions. Iirc, I believe she had tried her hand at combat and failed miserably. Prompting her to become an artisan, which lead her into the business trade. In any case, she's out of the running.

I get the impression you haven't played the sidequest 'Wayward Carbuncle'....

I personally am disappointed the new job wasn't Blitzballer and they didn't make our Krille into a dodgeball master.

And I am disappointed your sentence didn't end after "dodgeball".

Damn, you're gonna make me cry so hard I might unsub... that was the better joke.

Krile tutored Alphinaud, right? Feels like she should've been the Sage in EW. Meanwhile, it's established that Alphinaud is a great artist. So he could've been a pictomancer.
Hell, just make Alphinaud the job representative 2 expansions in a row. I don't think anyone would've minded. The only thing that fits about this for krile imo is the job's color scheme, which seems full of bright primary colors just like Krile's outfit.

[VoidShaman]

Feels less forced than this being an issue.

I think its completely fine, she wants to contribute in her own unique way, seems like she will get a chance to do just that.

Don't get the why this should be a big deal, it's not like she had to stop being a serious character now that she is a Pictomancer.
