Re: Things I'm waiting for:

Probably going to add in the Arcanist and Mystic classes next.

Mystic is similar to WoW's Shaman with totem-esque abilities, while Arcanist uses magic from/with technology.

Re: Things I'm waiting for:

I know there's a Musketeer guild in the game so it's quite possible this may be the case. However, I doubt the others will make it, because they are all physical classes and SE already said they may add one or two "magic" classes. If history serves correctly, SE will only add a couple of new classes every expansion, so for PS3 release, it would be a Musketeer class + a magic (or two) Maybe if Yyg is lucky, they'll add in his SMN class (I'm almost certain they will considering that .dat exists in the game) Assassin = Ninja and I rather them NOT put Ninja into the game. If they learned their lesson, they will seek to avoid that headache and try to maintain the current balance (which is actually pretty good atm) between the classes.

SMN!!!!


Dance <(^_^<) <(^_^)> (>^_^)> Dance


SMN!!!!

But on a serious note... I agree (as usual) with Aeni on this one. The introduction of more Melee classes would be a stupid move at this point. If musketeer works similar to Corsair, it would offer a support class to a game that already has a very stark line between Magic/Melee. I would like to think of it as a Corsair because the guild is in the port city... and musketeer seems like it would be a pirate.

SMN would be amazing, but as I've learned in the past... skepticism is healthy with squeenix. I doubt that they would complicate an already unfinished game by adding in a pet job this early. They have more basic and less complicated things (bugs) to work out before I would even want to see SMN implimented.

That being said, I'm curious to see what they do add in as the new magic job.

Musketeer (Support)
??? (Magic)

Maybe something along the lines of BLU? They don't have too many monster skills that are well defined enough to introduce BLU just yet.

Maybe RDM? With the combinations available between THAUM and CONJ, it's pretty easy to make a RDM already.... minus the sword.

Perhaps SCH? See: RDM

What about BRD? Doubtful if they make Musketeer the way I hope they're going to. At least not just yet.

I'm not sure what kind of Magic class they could really bring to the table that would be good enough to stand alone without being OP and broken. Time will tell.

Re: Things I'm waiting for:

Flayer
Musketeer
Fencer
Samurai
Assassin

How about Betty White wearing a Slave Leia costume wielding a flaming chainsaw while riding a John Ridder Centaur at the base of a volcano?

Seen that one yet?

Yeah. But if theres nothing to complain about... where's the fun in that? Then you're just J_9...

Re: Things I'm waiting for:

- Chocobos
- Airships
- Class specific gear (outside of weapons)
- Bucaneer (there's already a guild hall in Limsa for God's sake... just give it to us already)
- Goblins (as I have seen, they're coming soon. w00t)
- Magically enchanted Armor (not just Hermes' Boots... I want the whole selection)
- More dance choices
- NMs (also coming soon. See: Lodestone)
- Summons
- Working Battle Regimens
- Race specific gear (besides underwear)
- Madragoras
- A Mog House....
- A formal Auction House (Not Yellow Gremlin Network)
- Titles
- Server changing capability
- Pouches/backpacks (There's an equipment slot.... why nothing to put in it?)
- GET RID OF THE LIMITATION ON ACCESSORIES... OR AT LEAST OFFER US A WAY TO EARN THE RIGHT TO WEAR MORE
- Increased Bazaar space
- More Macro icon choices
- More Unique/Untradable... see: Rare/Ex gear
- Dual Wielding
- Better Spell/Skill animations
- Batman stabbing a shark with a lightsaber
- The ability to abandon a local crafting levequest when you realize that it would take you too long to walk all the way to the camp you need to go to to cash in on the reward for the levequest you finished 8 days ago but havent had the time/anima to make it all the way out there just to turn it in OMGWTFTAKINGUPSPACE.
- Balance to Single Target/AOE Spells. Reduce the damage on AoE and Increase the Damage on Single Target PLZ. Or at least Increase the MP cost to cast an AoE. I know I'm going to get a lot of hate from this one... but lets be honest... it's balanced that way. We don't need people pulling Korakola Tunnel XP parties in this game without needing a SMN. (Think 6 Conj parties killing hordes of MOBS while they run through dungeons)
- A Central City (Jeuno/WG)
- Less NPC Linkpearls
- More Spells
- Friends on Selbina

Re: Things I'm waiting for:

They need to make a Mew class. All it does is mew at its enemies and they eventually kill themselves after going blind from the glaring optimism.

MAKE IT SO, SE.

Re: Things I'm waiting for:

I want a /high5 emote.

Only usable when within close proximity to another PC and only if they use it at the same time.

If not it should prompt you with the message "REJECTED!"

Re: Things I'm waiting for:

It's the same in FFXI, now that they lifted the cap to 99, but that doesn't mean they need to have it to 99 anytime soon. My gut feeling is that either they'll adopt the same approach to cap lifting (a la Maat) or they will have a similar "near perma cap" for a couple of expansions for players to feel their way through ... or maybe even just do what Blizzard did with WoW and that end game will constantly scale in 5 rank increments. But, and I can't find the article right now, it was said by the developer(s) that the 50 cap will change at the time PS3 is released and that's only a few months from now. So it would be largely a waste for SE to implement end game now and then risk alienating PS3 players just that much more.

That's not what I was saying. I was just correcting your statement of 70~75 cap.

[Aeni]

Re: Things I'm waiting for:

Spells and abilities go up to rank 99, or so say the data files.
