Personally I would love a Corsair/Pirate themed job that uses a cutlass/pistol combo. Sort of an inverse Red Mage where you go melee to build up a gauge and then jump back to to a ranged burst. Also I don’t think we have enough Pirate aesthetics in the game at higher levels. I think it would also slot nicely into using Scouting gear alongside Ninja.
What’s the expected roles this time around, caster and physranged? I’d be interested in a high APM fast-caster, maybe something like healers with 1.5s cast time GCDs (but as a DPS give it a rotation and a ton of oGCDs to weave).
Anything else that uses Scouting gear would also be appreciated. I like to flex NIN and it kinda sucks how low value that Scouting gear can be.
Caster was confirmed in a live letter, and we apparently know it will be Krile’s new job in the next expac.
My bet is geomancer
I would love a 1.5 cast time Caster, Garuda phase is my favorite part of new SMN
