Final Fantasy XI: Wings of the Goddess

[roflcopter_down]

So, the new FFXI expansion is apparently going to be about time travel and going to an alternate history/universe (hopefully not time compression). Rumor has it Atomos is on the cover. SE has announced that there will be three new jobs in this expansion, and has announced that one will be Dancer, and has more or less admitted Time Mage will be the other (Because it's about TIME and ATOMOS is on the cover). The third one is still a mystery, but people are clamoring for another tank class. I'm all for it. But there are so many jobs in FFXI now, they're running out of actual FF classes. They had to make one up in the last game, and it sucked. Puppetmaster just sucks.

There has been talk of Mystic Knight, but the Mystic Knight's abilities have been lumped in with the Red Mage. So one must ask, what's next?

Based on SE's current strategy, I think the third class will be in some way based on FF7.

Dancerwhut? Is that mainly a status effect class?

In the other games, yeah, it was a status effect class. Mostly, the theory is that they'll be a debuffer, but so far there's only been a picture released. Nobody really knows much about what it will be like in FFXI.

By the way, I'm on like every night. If you have a character on Laksmhi, send me a tell.

Well with any hope it'll be useful, but who knows. People'll take it for the fact that it's remotely cute.

And I certainly will, once I get back into the swing of balancing work, -and- school, and play again. Oh lord, why did I want to go back to college so soon? Right, right. Marketable skills.
