    This doesn't mean that SAM wouldn't get a GK, but afterall the whole job system is based on the weapon you are weilding. A base class is simply learning how to master that particular weapon (generally speaking). Advanced jobs stem from them as they have excelled in mastering the weapon and have started to tap into the "magic" ability sort of stuff (an ability of an advanced job as an example.)

    To give GLD a 2 handed alternative seems a little backwards in my opinion as they have spent their career using a sword & shield, then all of a sudden they know how to use a scythe?

    Scholar I think should also stem from Arcanist as Scholars use education / knowledge as their means of using magic (similar to Arcanist). In saying that I think BST should come from MRD, as both use a form of axe (although I would like a zerker because I am really hoping for a great sword job at some point).

    Food for thought at least..

    Nobody is suggesting Dark Knight should weild a Scythe, Dark Knights were weilding 1 handed swords long before XI came out. Though i admit Doc Mog should change the Dark Knight picture connected to Gladiator since its no longer connected to Marauder lol.
