Wow, so many PUP supporters now. I remember when damn near everyone was like: "Puppetmaster is the 3rd job? WTF is a Puppetmaster, lol? Dragoon/Summoner knockoff...." I guess times change, heh.

I chose PUP mostly because it's the only job that looked fun for ME to play, I'm the same way with some jobs lol. I'm always on the tank mentality even when leveling things like thf. "OMFG SAVEZ TEH PLD!!!"

Paladin: 20 seconds till provoke <call12>
White Mage: .....

I think all the jobs will pwn, I just don't want to use them so much. I love Bards like my own family (kind of a stretch :P)but I'd never want to BE one.

I'm surprised there aren't more Corsairs than anything. I thought the majority of people were jonesing for a pirate job. I guess maybe they are disappointed they are looking more like BRD than a DD.

I'm definitely playing Blu. Perfect blend of Mage and BST. I love the potential flexibility (PUP looks pretty flexible also). I'm already fearing what eventually the community loves to do, force jobs into a specific role and only use X, Y, and Z abilities while the rest of the job goes to waste. Yay Blu/Bst so I can play it how I want to.

I think Corsair sounds like fun, but blu may prove to be interesting. I'll just have to wait to find out which one I like better I guess, but I really enjoy playing support jobs ^-^

I really wanna do Cor, Like super bad. It just looks like it rocks, but all the jobs appeal to me, mainly because of the vase amount of variety the jobs hold up. I mean litterally each job could fit almost any job with the rigth assets.

Blue Mage all the way! I love the way it's going to work, being a kind of master of one trade at a time rather than a traditional jack of all trades. Always thought the idea of blue magic was cool, and with the awesome back story it's even better. Now I can have two jobs that are magically powerful at the possible expense of my health (SMN, BLU)!

Corsair, well...I want to hate it because it's a pirate and my insticts seem to tell me to hate anything that's popular. However, it's becoming more and more of a gambler (which I love) everytime more information is released, and my character model (bearded hume) is the best for a pirate, so....

Puppetmaster is kind of interesting, I guess, but I don't like pets I can't control directly, and I much prefer jobs that have been in the other games.

I was looking forward most to BLU because i have wanted to lvl a mage job with the ability to solo, and having seen how powerful RDM can be i can't wait to see if BLU can compare.

Now however, having seen the Version update info on the new jobs i feel PUP is now my "favourite", simply because i hope it will be a viable alternative to BST for when sitting in Jeuno LFG simply isnt an option.

I guess we will soon find out...

For some reason, to me, COR seems alot like BRD(a job i've always been interested in), with a nice little twist, and how could that be bad?

I don't find any of them to be any interest to me. Not to say they suck or anything, just not my cup of tea.

Blue Mage #1 for me, with a hint of the 'i wonder what puppetmaster is going to be like' in the back of my mind. i'll probably unlock all three and try them all out like i have with every other job... but, that's just me. i still remember Gau from FF3/6 and the wonderful feeling of pwnage at being able to use a mob's attacks back on them. looking forward to it.!!

PUP for me. The background info on the other 2 looked a bit "meh" to me, but the stuff on PUP got me interested, as do the mad customization options.

I like bluemage. I originally made redmage, I always wanted some kind of magical melee type really. But since redmage is more mage than melee (but I still like it the most of current jobs), I always craved something else. Some kind of magic knight.

Seems Blue may be the new holder of the job closest to a mage knight type class. Who knows. Depends on a few things though, like if it has self curing abilities or self mp regening as to whether Id make it my new permanent main.

The response surprises me... after the initial reaction to PUP, I expected it to be really low on this poll, but at the moment it's winning ^^

Personally, I'm most interested in Blue Mage (although PUP isn't far behind). The customization of both jobs is really, really appealing... but I'm still taking Summoner to 75, because I'm just that damn good at it :P

In all seriousness, I'm going to try all three out after the initial rush of levelers ends. Who knows, I might like Corsair. It depends what the gear looks like on a Tarutaru, I guess. (Yeah, I'm a fashion *****/icon/guru)

This was a toss up between Blu and Cor for me.

I eventually picked Cor for the cool pirate image and the awesome backstory. (One boat army's ftw :P)

Remember everybody, International Talk Like a Pirate day this september :P

Well, I feel that all three of the new jobs are looking to be wonderful additions to the game, they all seem very interesting.

I've no doubt that I'll play all three of them at some point, but I'm just dying to play COR.

I'm 75BRD, so I'm used to the support role. But the one thing that I dislike about BRD is the monotony, which it seems COR will lack, seeing as the outcome of the rolls is unpredictable.
I'm also looking forward to seeing if COR can deal some damage as well as buff the party.

And my Mithra would look so freakin' sweet in that frilly AF.

COR all the way! I totally can understand why people may have seemed to shy away from COR. My only guess would probably have to be how the whole "Luck" factor plays a role on well the COR performs during exp parties.

I do agree that it would suck to have a great party set-up and someone sends a misstell on party chat and says "This COR has some real bad luck", because the rolls are less than favorable.

I'm hoping against hope that SE wont let us future CORs down. (One bet I'd be nervous to take) ^^;

I voted for COR because I see more of a pure gambler style in them. I like to take risks so thats why they appealed to me most. Oh yeah I cant wait to Rock out with "Wild Card"!

*Lifts up a cold one* "Heres to cold drinks and hott exp parties!".
