    I'm firmly in the camp of there being a new class to underlay Scholar with the respective guild either in one of the starting cities or one of the other, expanded, settlements around Eorzea.

    I did wonder about the 8-slot job crystal window. My take that the Beta will not have the 9th job ready and the 9th slot will be added in when SCH or SMN is attainable. Though that seems a little tenuous. Maybe when the chest was designed, only 8 jobs were confirmed and the whole SCH thing is a relatively recent addition.

    I agree it seems Scholar was a recent addition to the game, should have it's own crystal to place the "Soul of the Scholar"? in it. I know we have a bit to wait to find out details..but there's some who have said scholar won't be tied to any actual job.

    I don't see the doing arcanist and having the story branch out to scholar. Though when it comes to implementing the job, should still have the same restrictions as normal jobs in terms of cross class abilities it can use and from what classes. But to just randomly toss out a class? would seem a little off. Maybe they don't see the need to offer a new class just for scholar but instead will have it a game requirement to obtain certain levels and go do the scholar quest, tied to classes but not by experience or lore. Would give those who start ARR with all 50's another class to level.

    This is all just me guessing, I'm okay with being wrong. Just killing time until E3 and release.
