oh that's great, I will look into that. One nice thing about anamnesis was changing your race and I like using it to test potential fantasias (i should really stop buying those) but I don't use them THAT much and doing it for gear is much better.

:same:

I can no longer hold on to fantasia since I'll always use it sooner or later then change back when I feel bored. Although right now I want to change my bun's battle voice it feels like a waste of :10bux: since I play sound off unless it's new updates with MSQ.

Sometimes I miss my cat tail too.

Should be unrestricting weekly Savage chest drops/Normal blade drops and adding the ability to buy the tomestone weapon upgrade material with raid coins, too. They usually throw that in the last small patch before a new Savage raid.

one time i spent $10 to adjust one slider because i made my roe too tall accidentally, i do not regret it but also i have tried to be less trigger happy with fantasias because of it

I've never used a fantasia and I wish they were tradable so I could make a few mills gils off selling the one they gave me.

Not only have I never used the free fantasia, but I'm almost at Endwalker on my alt that looks identical to my main character. It would feel weird to be anything else. That's the Warrior of Light.

I forgot about that! Would be great to see it in-game. The daisho look is cool and I'm surprised they haven't done it yet.

I've already fantasiaed more than I should have, but SE has gotten an embarrassing amount from me hating the combat sounds of the voice I picked, forcing me to buy another one to change it. Now I start new guys and run outside like Ul'Dah or something and fight bees for a bit to get a feel for the grunts.

I caught up on msq after finishing 6.0 back in January 2022 and not touching any of it after. I wish I had kept up through the patches and am definitely staying on top of it from here on out. I feel like I just had so much content backlogged after hitting 90 before that I wanted to do, including leveling multiple jobs to 90, all of my doh/dol jobs, blu to 70, unlocking past raids and trials, etc. There's so much content in this game. Anyways, I love FFIV and these post 6.0 patches have been such a treat for me.

Spellsword/Mystic Knight has been one of the Jobs I really want them to add, but I have no real idea for how they'd go about it. RDM is already kinda close to what I'd like, just I'd like it to be imbuing melee attacks all the time instead of as a burst. Since RDM is already pretty close, I'm not sure they find Spellsword/Mystic Knight unique enough to do.

The totally wild way to do this would be to make Mystic Knight a tank that doesn’t use MIT but instead just buffs the crapwater out of the DPS so that they do so much damage that they crush bad guys before they can take the tank out.

what even are the most desired jobs left? I'm assuming it's mystic knight (judging by recent thread posting) and geomancer (something I see pop up a lot).

also wonder what weapons they'd use. geomancers would almost certainly use bells, but there's already big, small, and medium sized swords in the game so I wonder if they'd go crazy with that one.

Could see them doing beastmaster, gambler (/corsair), geomancer, magic/mystic knight. i'd be happy if they stopped adding jobs at some point, there's already so many. another ff mainstay is mime but idk how they pull that off

I am still banking on Corsair for a 2nd scouting job, dual-wielding a cutlass and pistol.

That's the origin of a fairly repeated background character who ultimately is the reason Haukke Manor happened.

They've said that if they do Beastmaster it will almost certainly be a limited job (like Blue Mage).

It'd vary immensely based on where you ask, but I've generally vibed out that the most common in general are something like...

-Chemist
-Necromancer
-Garlean Gunblade User That's Totally Different From Gunbreaker (you can safely ignore these people for other reasons, they usually have semi-related bad opinions)
-Geomancer
-Time Mage
-Beastmaster
-Green Mage but nobody can agree what the gently caress it'd do
-Blanket category of 'jobs that would basically just be different flavors of a thing we already have' (Ranger, Thief, Berserker)

I genuinely don't think I've actually seen a lot of people outright saying they want Mystic Knight, that's more in the category where every so often you see one person ask for it and then a bunch of people reply with 'yeah that'd be cool'. Meanwhile there's like, A Crowd of people who really want Geomancer and will tell you fairly often.

they'd probably BS a new stylized sword weapon, like "Rune Saber" or something

They are in one game, Tactics Advance 2, where they're a buff-focused magic job.

Green Magic appeared as a school of magic containing those spells in XII, but even in XII's job system update they weren't a job themselves.

They were also a Viera class, so hopefully they'd be tied into the Viera of FFXIV somewhat. Basically nature themed dps casters.
