Finally, a new Paladin. As a PLD main this news made me very exited for Evercold.
Hmm might be the ony job what looks fitted with hrothgar, cause their back looks like they unload trucks everyday
ngl I'm still way more interested in whatever that catgirl with the wand and falcon was doing than this.
Glad it's not just double shield but.. somewhat eh pick for tank. Still gonna level it though!
Bravely Default Dual Shielding the job
BRB renaming my character ‘Abrams’
The rise of the TONKs!
It would be kinda funny if for the PvP abilities the job has some kind of counter to warriors as a nod to the jobs backstory.
THAT'S, stylin'.
To my MCH mains, are we shifting over?
finally a tank that will actually good on Roegadyn and male Hrothgar
First time since Machinist i've been THIS hype for a job, Bastion is 100% down my alley when it comes to what I want out of a job man.
Noice
….all my naming days… have come at once.
They know how hard Zoraal Ja's theme goes
Looks like a great class…. would have to get hands on it to see bout it but could easy be mt and ot depending on what it has
bye bye my fps.
Well, I'm sold.
Cant have a rainbow without reyn baby!
So when Paladin uses their Level 3 Limit Break, the Bastion Job comes out?
ABOUT DAMN TIME WE ROES GET SOME LOVE. also name of the song used for the reveal? I swear I've heard it before but i cannot remember the name
Why would… long range tank makes very little sense to me though. Mostly for off tanking i guess? Weird, but i hasn't even played since the end 6.0 base story.
FORTIFY
So the other job is puppetmaster? Oh is it Toy Master? Because the girl shows the symbol for the job, the spell breaks on the hawk and it flys away, and she has dolls on her hip to deploy. Uses a wand so its magic.
NOW I CAN MAIN MY TWO FAVORITE JOBS AT ONCE: MONK AND GUNBREAKER.
When you come to it and You can’t go through and you can’t knock it down, you know that you found-
Dead game on arrival due to graphical upgrade or engine upgrade. It’s 2026 no one wants a game that looks like 1995
I told everyone at fanfest at Anaheim it was going to be this. But everyone wanted wakka ball 😒.
Gun Breaker: "Finally a worthy opponent!"
So we're getting a ranged tank
ho, a new job tank, is look very inte…. WE HAVE CANNONS?
ROCKET PUNCH!!!
I think i like this tank
creatively bankrupt = square enix. wtf is this
I knew yoshi shirt was an hint for a double shield job. This would be barret job as closest since he is a tank in VII. Mystic knight is the next dps job because of cloud since we are getting a VII raid collab.
Crazy how we never got a hammer wielding magitek knight in the style of Nero from ARR. Doing dual wielding greatshields that transform into guns instead of hammer is certainly a choice.
THE WALL! THE WALL!
Close enough, welcome back cape westwind
Bastion looks sick. I have a Pokemon themed Lala so I'm gonna find a way to make a Blastoise or Squirtle glam for Evercold.
TO ALL THE FANS WHO HAVE LOVED AND SPREAD THE AWESOMENESS OF RHITATYN!!
I THANK YOU GUYS! i always loved his design and the gun shields when i finished ARR earlier this year and wished for it to be a tank job, and NOW IT IS!!
I keep wanting to call it Shieldbreaker. That armor and those animations look nice.
If the next ranged is something as mundane as a throwing spear or hatchet I wouldn’t even be upset
Just realized this is a tank that can still deal damage while running for mega pulls. This and Sage are gonna be a dream combo.
Whelp looks like im jumping back into 14
Lalafel comes out with two mussels clam shells strapped to its arms
Now I am become Cape Westwind (Hard), destroyer of worlds
It's like all my name days have come at once!
Am I the only one not feeling the aesthetics?
I just started playing this, I doubt I'll catch up before Evercold but I'll try 👍
Looks like Monk got an upgrade. After all, I've wanted gunshield (or whatever they are called) for years. And now, finally.
