New jobs confirmed, amongst other things

Nadriell

As the title says, here's the latest from Yoshi P.!!

 

Quite a few interesting things were coerced out of Yoshida last night:

• Gun and Dagger class/jobs were both confirmed and coming sooner than people think. Apparently soon after 2.3. (He said we are saving this info for E3-Announcements, looking forward to June 10th!)
• The gun class isn't what people are expecting it to be.
• Frontlines are aiming to be in 2.3! (They made it seem like it was an 8v8v8, not confirmed though)
• Yoshi said Summoners will be getting Leviathan AND Ramuh pets, no mentioned when they would arrive.
• Black Mage buffs and Summoner pet rebalancing to make others useful coming.
• Yugiri's face was apparently shown to Nakamura, who gasped. No images as of yet.
• Gold Saucer will be BIG. He wants the games to encompass more than just playing with friends. (Hints at match making and chocobo races.)
• Personal rooms for your FC housing mentioned again. He said it would be like a mog house from ff11 with decorating.
• The new 2.3 Dungeon will be outside, and deal with water, supposedly in La noscea.
• Crafters are getting something to do with salv- (He was cut off, people thought it was salvage, but he claims that he wasn't going to say salvage.)
• Phantasia Potions for sale in May!

Smaller Less Important Tid-bits:

• People complained about still going to the waking sands, solution is coming.(Urianger is staying behind because of the twins are fighting and he doesn't want to leave Alisae(the female twin) behind on her own. Apparently as part of the story, they will make the move in 2.3) So no more waking sands trips!
• Hildibrand was originally supposed to be a Lalafell.
• Yoshi said to watch the Hildibrand cutscenes again and pay attention to a reoccurring person in the back ground stalking Nashu. He said he was surprised no one caught this.
• Gerolt's name in japanese is Gero, which literally means "barf", is getting a personal story to explain his rocky past where he was not such a nice person.
• Stitches in the moogle* are being removed because japanese players find them scary. (Was unclear if he meant the moogle pet or the moogle housing item)
• Housing Instruments if all played at the same time will play a memorable song.

(If there is anything I missed, please let me know!)

Crazy to think an expansion is already in the works for the fall. I have been waiting patiently for a gun class.

The more popular people think its going to be Thief/Ninja  or Corsair 

 

i personally would love to see a stealth class in this game, and the pvp changes look amazing
