Red Mage as possible new tank class

[Kitru]

I am talking about GLA because it was mentionned by Yoshida, to be a requierment for DRK if I recall correctly.

He mentioned DRK being built off of GLA as a DPS, referencing how they could remove the high enmity modifier from the attacks. It was said in a relatively off-handed manner, so I wouldn't expect it to be a definitive indication that DRK will be DPS. It does mean that they've been thinking about DRK, however.

My stance has always been that I'd *prefer* to see DRK as a tank job with a new class just for it so that you can actually have a DRK that doesn't just feel like a slightly tweaked PLD, but, if it's a DPS class, I fully expect it to come out of GLD, both because of this comment but also because it's hard to see them adding a new class just for DRK to be a DPS when they've got plenty of other DPS options out there and not too many viable tank ideas.

Well me I think it could be quite easy. Remember that in FFXIV class/jobs are tied to the weapons, they could easily add great sword.

Also, in the 1.0 version was "Spinning slash" I don't remember which class gave it back in the time, it has been removed from ARR but i'm pretty sure they could add it back on said class job.
