Ideas for new jobs

[Kensrue]

So we got dancer and gunbreaker. Neither of which impress me much but to each his own. I am sure after a while it is hard to come up with new ideas. I was thinking of things that maybe cool of off the wall. Here are some of my ideas.

Retarius- if you don't know this it was a form of gladiator that used a trident and a net. Certainly different. I see it being a dps but maybe a tank if it uses a net ability to slow the mob.

Pikeman-it would be awesome to add pikes to the game. Definite tank.

Hoplite-a defense type with a spear.

Medic or medicus-could use a medkit as a weapon, a new healer that uses bandages and medicine for healing.

Engineer, Mediator, Scientist or chemist-uses objects to do ranged attacks like bombs, dot's.

Circadian mage- circadian rhythm has to do with sleep cycles and the 24 hour periods. It would be really cool if a mage could harness the power of night and day based on the time in eorza. If its projecting power something like a solar cell or mirror for a weapon.

Wanderer, sojourner, or explorer- use a walking stick and a tank by using deflection and parry moves. Use a spin to grab multiple mob enmity.

Shaman- healer with dark arts. Uses a magiked stick.

Survivalistor Woodsman- this would be a dps with beastmen traits. uses a bowie type knife.

Infantry or cavalier- have a more military trained type. Uses a bolt type rifle. Little generic but trying to think outside the box. His story could even be he is learning from an ex empire officer.

Doctore- these where the men responsible for training gladiators. He could use a whip and definitely would be DPS.

Viking-DPS- double edged war axe.

Grappler- obviously a little close to monk but maybe less punching and more tackles and throws. Could be a tank to separate itself and again use more dodging than meat shielding, gloves or wraps could be the weapon

Bombardier-ranged dps. uses different grenades.

And just to be a little more western- how about a cowboy. Use revolvers. Ranged dps.

I realize my ideas amount to little, but what else do you do on a 24 hour maintenance.

I'd rather have jobs based on/inspired by previous jobs in the Final Fantasy games.
Since.. this is a Final Fantasy game.

Time Mage would be dope but probably would only ever exist as the ever so limited Limited Job.

Actually many of these that I thought of come from FF games. Tactics was one of my favorites and many of them are inspired by that but modified a little to fit the game. And like gun breaker, it wasn't a thing until 8. Most of final fantasy is based on mythology and history so nothing is outside of the realm really. Besides, like I said my ideas don't amount too much, I was just having some fun day dreaming.

Make Blue Mage unlimited

Maybe an mage job like meia has from mobius ff that wields an giant yugioh duel disk.

Time Mage is the most obvious one. We basically have every other popular job from previous Final Fantasy games except Time Mage. And Chemist. And Geomancer.

Beastmaster!

I also legit want Calculator and Mediator/Orator.

"A magical-based job, the Orators use speech as their main form of attack, along with guns."

The guns are for when words fail...

Beastmaster!

We may actually get beastmaster but its more likely going to end the way of Blue Mage, pretty much if the job requires you to do more then just level it, it'll prolly be of those limited jobs...

Skill collection for Blue Mage
Monster collection for Beastmaster
Part/salvage collection for Puppetmaster

As for new Jobs I remember a couple ideas I came up with years ago

Chemist - Healer! "Mix" ability combined a few other items together to create heals, buffs, and attacks. Mudra-esque have a couple skills that are different ingredients, mix and match them, then use a final skill to either toss your mixture onto friendly, onto enemy, or splash everywhere for aoe. Could also have a working Mug/Steal ability, snag an random item from a mob that you use with mix, so maybe it could come off rogue's line, melee healer with potions & poisons?

Mystic Knight - Mage Tank! Spellblade ability to imbue your sword with elemental properties. It would also use some original mitigation spells, shell, wall, reflect, and such. Idea I had before was Ice sword would be your def stance and Fire your dps stance, but since stances are more or less gonzo I guess it would need to work differently, maybe what element you imbue with changes certain skills or even your combo.
Fire sword - combo 1, norm>combo 2, aoe>finisher AOE high damage
Ice sword - combo 1, norm>combo 2, single target>finisher single target high damage
Lightning sword - combo 1, norm> combo 2, dot> finisher debuff

Yes, its so lame they limit jobs. I understand its for balance, but it kinda just sucks.
