Announcing all new job possibilities!

Re: Announcing all new job possibilities!

I don't like the idea of necros, pirates, etc. Non final fantasy ish stuff imo.

Yeah and beastmaster was soooo FinalFantasy >.>

I hate guessing games. But as long as we are taking guesses as possible jobs I think Time Mage would be a viable job. Kind of another BRD esque job. Give them things like Slow II, Haste II, Hastega and they're good to go. Even impliment the spells in say, Final Fantasy Tactics like Float, or stop perhaps.

I can see Pirate fitting in with the story of FFXI very easily, but as far as guessing JAs for them I wouldn't know where to begin. I'd just have them as a mix between thief and ranger, and not really add anything job specific to them, nothing that wouldn't un-balance the game anyway. So i'm not sure about Pirate :/ Would love to see what AF would look like on a taru though lol.

LOLZ CHOCOBOKNIGHT OKW YEAHHHHHH

Hmm...they could have a parrot for their 2 hr?? How about some type of pegleg attack?? You would see macros like "AAAAAARRRR Matey, let me give you some wood! {Pegleg Attack} ;P LOL

Beastmaster WAS so Final Fantasy. Go play FF5, the AF is exactly the same as what they wore. They captured monsters to be released later as a one-time summon.

As far as pirate goes, there was atleast one pirate that I can recall. Anybody remember Faris?

And for the person that said BLU would be a little under DRK in attack power.. In all honesty I wouldn't think that'll be happening, really. If anything, I'd imagine they'd be closer to RDM, at most PLD or NIN in attack power, and make up for the rest with the sheer power of the spells they can get.

Jet stream? Pollen? Antican's silence? Crab's stoneskin?

Goblin bomb. My god. Goblin bomb.

Oh? I stand corrected then. Friends and I couldn't think of a game where BeastMaster was in it.

OMG thats a blast from the past....Faris!

Ya not too many people have played FF5. It did receive a NA release on Anthology but by then people were more into the newer generation of FF's (i.e. FF7 & FF8). I guess you have to be an avid FF'er to remember that one. ^^

Re: Announcing all new job possibilities!

Pirate sounds awesome

Re: Announcing all new job possibilities!

Faris may have been a pirate but it was not an acualy job class, never was,, and Bestmaster was first in FFIII for nes before it was in FFV, I think....I need to go play it again :p

Re: Announcing all new job possibilities!

I think there is a good chance more than just blue mage will be added in the next expansion. I don't think they would want a thousand blue mages trying to get a pt in valkurm. and if they are adding more than one i'm pretty sure they've picked, made and printed all of them by now. oh.....and if blue mage gets to use a whip, i hope one of those new jobs is cowboy >.> don't ask me how, but a cowboy job would work, lol ^_^

Re: Announcing all new job possibilities!

I really hope SE doesn't break the balance. Blue Mage isn't exactly whats best for game if it will be DD, looking at sceenshots... might be the case.

A support Chemist or tank/support Elementalist would be better or addition of. "Necromancy" shouldn't be a job, but "Ghost/Skeleton Spirit Pact" sounds a lot less balance shattering.

Double Post Edited:
Btw as for 'areas' we will fight in.

The jungle and pirates/boats say Mithra(Far South), but the way those houses are built point toward Far West... then again I swore I saw an asian style arch. No sign of Far North. Maybe SE will release parts of all the outside world(that would be fantastic).

Re: Announcing all new job possibilities!

Don't know about pirates. FF6 if you look at the statments made about Locke there's been dialouge that reffered to him as Thief, Pirate, and Treasure Hunter. So it's a little tough for me to think a pirate class being any different then what THF already is.

Re: Announcing all new job possibilities!

All/most of the pirates in Norg are NINs and SAMs btw...

What cowboy uses a whip? A lasso yes, but Ive never seen a cowboy use a whip (unless you count the flail they sometimes use when breaking horses.)

No one said it was. Prisya just pointed out there was a notable character in a FF that was a pirate.

Well there are 2 whips that cowboys use actually. First is a horse whip (not often used) and the next is a bull whip. A bull whip is a very nasty whip. >.<
