How many jobs will we see in the expansion?Follow

THIS. FFS THIS. THIS x101290384902903402

Give us Ranger even if it is just an outbranch of Archer and has consumable arrows I don't care just let me DD with a bow and not look like I'm a gypsy

If they are gonna add new jobs(note I'm behind on the update stuff so I'm probably off a bit) then they should let all those quests you do the first time around be repeatable. Not necessarily the MQ, just those side quests.

None more than likely. Honestly I don't see this game really getting much in the way of new classes (Yoshi says a lot of stuff he ends up "forgetting" or doing the complete opposite of) with this current battle system and focus on 4 man parties. It really hinders not only the type of classes that can be added but pretty much guarantees that we're more likely to see dual specs (SCH/SMN) way more than we are unique classes.

If this was still 1.23, sure I could see new jobs coming out, or even 1.0-1.14 when we had an actual spell./skill list that wasn't just a handful of abilities, but this system seems more along the lines of other MMOs and how often do you see those MMOs get new classes/jobs compared to say XI or even Eden Eternal?

If anything we'll likely get Musketeer in 2.6 just before the '3.0' expansion then that'll be it.

Maybe if SE returns to the 6 man aspect that XI utilized for regular parties (Light) then 8+ for everything else (Full/Alliance) it'll make more sense, otherwise as I said even during beta, Yoshi stated 4 man was the "Alpha only restriction for testing" that ended up becoming the standard which puts them in a corner, what if they release a support job? (Actual one, not that XIV Bard **** that's just a ranger with a harp), the standard party would then had to be 1 tank 1 healer 1 dps 1 support, which goes against standard design, which some MMOs even have 1 tank 1 healer 2 dps 1 support, the ones with actual defined classes that is.

You're probably right. They won't add any new jobs. MMO developers never do that. Especially Square Enix. Why on earth would they release more jobs when we already have 9. There are only a few left from the FF universe that aren't in the game anyway. No one would even want it, especially Yoshi. He probably ******* hates jobs and the idea of adding any at all to this game with a ****** 4man battle system. **** why did they even make this game? What was I even thinking? Next time, I'll make a thread called "wtf is Theonehio's opinion on the necessity and possibility of even seeing a new job in a Final Fantasy game".

Considering they said patches and not coming through expansions, hence the none, not to mention he already stated he's looking into adding more dual specs like SCH/SMN so they can easily build off of what exists rather than overload the game with classes.



Funnily enough, MMOs rarely do have classes added and usually more specs since they use the 'skill tree' system 99% of the time.

Looks like someone had a little karma fit. Let me fix that.

There's the thing. they should have never kept up the Armoury System. While fun in theory, it SEVERELY limits any development and additional jobs that could get unlocked :/

I hope they simply do away with it entirely and let you change jobs by means of equipping crystals or simply by selecting them from a list.

I mean, i like my sword and shield on Paladin, but i'd love to take out a Great Sword like on XI as well. Or a Club. Or a Staff. Same with on Warrior how i would like to use a Great Sword or maybe even a Spear as well. As long as the armory is in place, there will never be unique, diffirent or overlapping weapons since even if you make a Great Sword thats (GLD PLD MRD WAR), simply having it equipped will mean you change into one of those jobs automatically and one of them needs to be defined as such.

If i want to equip a staff on Paladin and help with way more curing than before, it should let me. The abilities between jobs are enough to diversify them and keep them unique.

All they have to do is when they raise the level cap to allow you to advance your job and not your class and you have the old system again!

Never mind jobs/classes, I want to play a Sylph.

And then RP it in FC chat and drive everyone crazy.

Just wait to see if they add playable Moogles. People say the Miqo'te are bad.. They have yet to know suffering.. Kupo.

forum hero.

All beastmen excluding Goblins can use an enspell and most mobs can use spike spells, i.e Shock Spikes/Blaze Spikes. Much like plenty of mobs can cast Paralyze, Slow, Haste, Gravity etc etc.

Yoshi doesn't want to give us access to these spells because he wants the "standard" gameplay element of your skills causing debuffs in order to not create a situation where you'll want to bring x class/job to content over y class/job, which is why he made monster resistance non-existent for the most part.
