So far only 5 classes have been released on the Official Site, http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/

Archer: From the info its gona be a generic archer class, with different arrow tipes to use according to the situation (silence arrow aqua arrow etc), and if u run out of arrows you will fight using.......... rocks Oo wtfroflmao... guess that if u come into a pinch u got to use all that is close to u ta save ur skin.

Lancer: it will use spears to fight from some distance with wide angles, nothing new to a spear kind of fighter. But these one caries something else, javelins. If u need to strike from far away you will have those. I like it.

Gladiator: Looks a bit like a WoW copy of the class Warrior, u can use shield and sword or just sword on a more offensive way, u can also use throwing knifes... Kind of too WoWish for me... blah

Marauder: hmm duno what these one do... info to available yet. It shows a guy with a 2h Axe and some mail/plate armor so I guess its gona be some kind of berserker. Lets w8 and c

Pugilist: Its gona be just like that guy from FF9, what was the name... any way, fist wep chakram ranged power its gona be cool that's for sure.

And now the leading question, where are the mages?

No info so far... at least official. Does any 1 know what the mage classes gona be? What are your hopes about it?
I truly hope a summoner in the FFXII stile, a pet that we can not control but some how we can try to manipulate =)

Well even tho it is a new game from FFXI, practically everything is similar in some way or another.

Archer = Ranger
Lancer = Dragoon
Gladiator = Paladin
Marauder = Dark Knight
Pugilist = Monk

My Guess ?!

Summoner
White Mage
Black Mage
Red Mage
Bard (Seeing how there might be PvP this class might not be like the FFXI class)
 
Classes sound good to me, iv'e never played WoW so i cant see the similarities. I never played 11 so im looking forawrd to this. The classes seem ok so far, but the archer seems pretty lame.

I Want my mage classes NAO ! I will jizz my pants if i can be a necromancer.
 
I've never seen a necromancer of any sorts in any FF chain in the past so I'd wager it is unlikely to see one in 14. I'd bet quite a few gil that we see fifty seven bazillion Lalafell mages running around on release day though. Mage fest for sure! I personally would love to see a summoner.

Grond
 
anyone heard anything about the classes other than whats on the official website? Im waiting to hear about any rogue-thief-ninjas <.< I played the crap out of my thf/nin on ffXI hah. :neomon:
 
You think the Gladiator class will be available right away, or will it be earned?
I didn't play XI for too long, so I never got any of the higher jobs in that game...

the Gladiator art is wicked though, haha

but I'm sure they'll have mages, it wouldn't be FF without em

Xtrabiotoxin the comparison looks pretty accurate to me. Except I don't think they'll have the same spells like Drains, Sentinel and etc. but I think we can except the same layouts.

Gladiator = Offensive line, mainly DOT and tank with party enhancive abilities or taunts.
Lancer = Offensive/back line. Versitile for different fights depending on mob (dragons, kited bosses)
Marauder = Offensive line, heavy damage abilities but not permanent DOT. Detrimental abilities like lower mob defense etc.
Pugilist = Some sort of direct melee, I guess monk but I have no idea.

That's what I'm expecting from those classes but I didn't see any mages released either... but the official website says that there are primary classes like Warrior and Mage and then you then derive your preferences, like mage could stem to white/black/red/blue or equivalents.... The only think I didn't understand from the classes page are the 'Botanist'.

Anyway idea why someone would want to be a botanist in battle? Or is it more like a guild trade like blacksmithery or alchemy?
 
i just want there to be another ninja job or one like it ninja was tha best job in ffxi such a beast
