Post DT Poll: What Weapon Types would you like to see added to XIV?

[Mimilu]

Link to Poll

Just a poll for fun. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧
For background, I've done weapon polls after HW, ShB, and EW's releases (I skipped SB for some reason). So now the time has come for DT's poll! (I'll post the past poll's results down below.)

The list of options for this one is bigger then before, with some weapon types renamed and/or recategorized. I did remove a few of the lesser voted types but the favorites should still be there, along with some new choses as well. (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧

Welp, looks like the mods from r/ffxiv removed the reddit version of this thread. There goes a good number of voters. (っ´ω｀c)

I've read something about it being hard to implement or the devs not wanting it, but I think a potion based healer would be fun
Throwing flasks and other things to heal and revive

Agree with blitzball as a ranged job, would be fun to do what Wakka does and it'd be different

A magic knight would be fun I always loved spellblades and as much as I enjoy RDM it doesn't quite hit the same for me and what I want

[ZephyrMenodora]

With all the modern tech and clothes they have been throwing at us, I can totally see Blitzball working in XIV now. Would be nice if they managed to actually implement a fun game out of it for something to do.

Awww... I liked this poll, have you been doing it all those years?
:c

[MediocreIndigo]

Please please PLEASE make a blitzball job and just copy-paste Wakka into the game to be the job mentor.

[TakoyakiLala]

Whip, Dual Cross Bows, Giant Boomerang, Blitz Ball, Geomancer Bell, Two Handed Rifles and Muskets, FF13 styled Gunblade, Giant Shuriken, Flaming Cheese Wheel.

Voted for Bludgeons and another kind of throwing weapon. I mostly would want a Bludgeon. I think having a Mace/War Hammer or even a Flail would be really cool. I just hope it'd get a shield to be paired with it, I can't imagine it'll use the off-hand slot and my guess is the shield would be tied to the weapon it self similar to how RDM/SAM are with the Focus/Sheathe. They might be able to get more creative with the Flail but I think I'd prefer a War Hammer...Then again, they might make them really over sized and ugly.

Always a pleasure to fill out community polls. Sorry that it got deleted off of r/ffxiv, honestly staying off that specific board is for the best.

Potion-based healer would be fun, here's hoping for a chemist or something along those lines...
