Arcanist and Summoner artwork

[Jennestia]

so to burst your bubble on Blu but a rep said a while back that Blue mage wasnt on the minds of the development team. so i dont see them getting added for a looooong time.

Which is unfortunate but given the way even 1.0 works, I doubt it would have been possible and no, the glitch to "learn" mob abilities was a glitch that caused players to have anything used on them added to their skillbar including "Attack" skills.

I guess we know why that random piece of Akihiko Yoshida artwork was hanging up in the background during his Live Producer Letters.

Yeah but these aren't coming out until release of ARR Arcanist at least so yeah a lot us older players will be playing that new class but the newbs that just start may or may not be doing that. Also with what it sounds like you'll go from 1-15 in 30 hours with ARR. Unless you're some how magically pl'd if they even still allow that with ARR

I've ment by the current players, will be arcanist since everyone is at 50 everything and yes new players, will be at a candy store what to try first.

yeah that I could see like i said for the old player base. lol or kids invited to the Wonka factory... I swear I'm not Augustus Gloop <_<>_> *hides chocolate covered hands behind back*

well i will give credit were it is due, Though i am upset that the Class is called arcanist which i thought evoker would be a better fit. The Concept arts look fantastic and i cant wait. i LOVE the summoners jacket!

So what ever happened to the old archanist weapon (what was it, anyhow?)? Will it ever be used? Hmm...

Really hoping that, that red hell hound looking thing is ifrit essence and that all the essence will embody some kinda animal thats, i dont know like the primal in some sort of way

Ifrit - hell hound
Garuda - Some scary bird
moogle - ??
Titan - some Lizard thing

Would be cool imo.

BTW, curious where you found this artwork at.

I think the summoner attack system will be something similar what 'Leon D.S. Gehste' from 'Star Ocean the Second Story' does with his book invoking monsters from within the book to make special attacks to the enemy instead of the old summoner system that had a pet on the side half of the time.
