Future Jobs

[sirdaecon]

Any indication or hints as to what jobs are going to be released in the future? Is Puppeteer going to be under the Pugilist class if ever?

Musketeer is a sure one. So is Ninja and Samurai.
All I know lol.
I hope Dancer comes out. Another most wanted one from the general players are: Dark Knight and Thief.
Otherwise , nope.

Thief is one.. I remember reading about Scout type class... Ninja and Samurai should be definites and Dark Knight~ I remember reading about people seeing a Musketeer Guild in Limsa~

^^Thanks for all the inputs, hopefully we'll know soon!

Musketeer has a guild in the game already that isn't used by a class as of yet and that would even out the starting classes in limsa with everywhere else so I assume that will be one that comes quickly as possible. Yoshi has mentioned Samurai and Ninja for sure as eventual jobs but beyond that, its all heresay, rumors and hopes.

The Musketeer guild is gone from what I saw. I don't remember where it was in Limsa exactly so I can't say what it's been replaced with but Arcanist is a safe bet. I remember reading some where that Red Mage, Dark Knight, Samurai and Ninja were what they were considering for the next expansion.

EDIT: Looking at this old map, I think it's where the Coral Tower was. The Coral Tower was moved to the East of that(the top part below the 'Northern Islands') and turned into the Marauder's guild.

the musketeer's guild is in the same room as the marauder's now.

I JUST read something somewhere (which if I can find it, I'll edit in the link) in which Yoshi stated that they would eventually like to include a Scout class that would branch off into Thief and in that same article, he also mentioned that they are talking about a possibility of Ninja and Samurai as he said they appear to be the most popular request from North American players.

Personally, I would love to see this Scout class mix with a PUG to create a Dancer. When DNC was announced in FFXI, I laughed. Then I tried it. 75 levels later, I was in love with it and it was one of the main reasons I went back to do the new caps. If it weren't for the fact that the game itself is a ghost town unless you want to do lame Abyssea crap, I'd go back just to bide my time until release. The downside to coming in from 1.0 is waiting :/ All you EA people are the envy of my life atm, so enjoy and I'll see you all Tuesday

Some of the jobs were a love/hate thing too, while others were clear favorites. They'll probably come out with DNC and PUP later down the road when they've brought the more common jobs back to life.

I personally want to see COR make an appearance, but Musketeer might be filling that gap, depending who you listen to on what it does lol... I'm sure all of them will come back over time, or at least in a variation of itself.


Edit: For those like Mikhail below, most jobs stem from previous FF games, such as FFV & FFT etc with FFXI even coming out with some of its own. All in all though if you look hard enough you'll find the job in a previous game. Just a few examples, Rune Fencer in XI probably a nod to Rune Knight in FFVI, Dancer from FFV, and so on.

So I'd brush up on your FF "lore" from the wikia sites on older games, its entirely possible some of them will make a comeback like others have.

I didn't really know anything about those "future jobs".
They all sound amazing, i'm really looking forward to seeing them!
