Q19: So about that scholar rumor...?

A19: Scholar will be implemented for release as the 9th job! Look for details on scholar at E3!

I still find it odd that scholar would be a release (re-release) job, when some of the fundamentals aren't available yet.

So far we got BRD, PLD, DRG, WAR, MNK, SMN, SCH, WHM and BLM.

Need's more Dancer Thief and Ninja. We will see NIN in the first expansion :). And no I'm not going to confirm this Yoshi-P said it in a live letter long ago.

Also no BLU...EVER. I lost a bet to someone on FFXI that will literally hold me to this bet.

I'll be sad if DRK isn't going to be a 14 job; SMN is not enough!

Great Sword would be a great addition to the game :<

Absorb-TP would be broken as *** if they implemented it though...

Thought it was arcanist was going to be the next class they wield books much like scholar from other ff's but they become summoners.

Either there will be a second new class added (not mentioned yet), or they went with a previous idea. The one where one class can branch into two (or more) jobs.

While I agree that people who *** about BLU not being in 14 yet are only people that haven't played the current combat system of 14:ARR and should pipe down, Onion Knight would be OVERLY broken if they based it on previous versions of it. A job that gets stronger the more jobs you have leveled? >_>

Eh? The only time i remember there being an onion knight was FF3 and it was an utterly useless class with no growth up until level 70/80ish and other then the most powerful gear in the game they couldn't equip anything beyond the second set of gear available to you at the very beginning of the game.

Onion Knight was added to FFT: War of the lions however that wasn't a class originally in the game, also seems like you are some what equating onion kight to the jobless class of FFV which was overpowered when you mastered the other classes and gained access to passive traits without even having to equip them among other things like inheriting stats similar to the mastered class.

FinalFantasyWiki said:
The Onion Knight is a job whose level increases by mastering other jobs. When every other job is mastered, the Onion Knight becomes the strongest job class in the game. It cannot learn any abilities by itself, but can equip every piece of equipment in the game.

Is which Onion Knight I was referring to. Or in FF3 when they get to level 90, as they climb to 99 their stats sky rocket and cap out at 99.

Click on the image to go to the main site's SCH part.

Bits mentioned in the Live letter today (copy and pasted from Bismark:Aselin's notes)
~ Primary pet: Fairy
~ Role: Handles Regen and healing over time
~ Fairy's role and appearance will change depending on what SCH does
~ Only one pet, Fairy sounds an awful like the Wyvern for Dragoon in FFXI-- one pet, but multiple roles
~ White Mage will deal the massive heals and Cures, and status effects. Scholar handles healing over time (HoT?) with Regen.

I would have to say I was sold the moment I saw the Artifact Armor and the animations: The character opens the book up and writes in it. It gave me this Magical Lyrical Nanoha A's vibe when the series dealt with the Book of Darkness, and how the magical powers were written to and derived from the book. ;D

Healing over time is kind of a weird niche...

Don't get me wrong, when I played SCH my whole party had Regain, Regen and refresh at all times, so I'm totally down with that, but it was nice to unleash TV nukes between that.

Proly going to be an aura based from the pet while its fighting and the main SCH will probobly have to cast an ability.

I'm excite either way, just proves that multi-job classes are possible and we might get RNG from Archer afterall.

I think the biggest news of the Q/A was the confirmation on the fact that Base classes will Branch out for Jobs.


So for Arcanist you can change to Summoner OR Scholar

I wonder what other jobs we will see from our current base classes.

Scholar will have whatever offensive capabilities Arcanist gets (which appear to be DoTs) since that's its base class. Or at least that's how I remember it working. It's been so long :(
