Rise of Zilart introduced 3 news jobs. Will ToAU fail to deliver the same amount? I think not.

I see a Chemist on the way. A healer without MP? <Yes, please.>

I forsee three jobs for some reason if you check playonline's website for Treasures and go to the job section there is room enough for two more jobs other than Blue Mage and Corsair. I doubt we will get 4 jobs this expansion, but I did forsee a third, now what it will be is anyones guess.

...well, they did need something to balance Ninja job. Pirat-er, Corsair works. :P

The 250+ WS indicates we have a job with a high Marksmanship cap- my guess is their #1 weapon is their pistols. It also looks like their debuff abilities are through the same, plus they have some random-based ability (JA?) as well.

People have said this may be a touch of what S-E intended Ninja to be. Either way, that's probably their AF gear in the pics, so we have competition with RDM's for the "best-dressed-fop" job. :P

Arr, mateys! Tarutaru Corsair off the starboard bow! :P
Disappointed

If the 2 hour was supposed to be some sort of reels (or if all the job abilities were reels-related), you think users would find a way to hack it somehow? It's a weird job when it relates to 'luck' as you may call it.

pirate? that's the best SE could come up with?
a modded RNG with specialty in guns?

that makes sence...? because there is an overwelming population in FFXI that wishes to live out the boyhood fantasies as a pirate? square enix is a bunch of pirates....><

also, to be a pirate, dont you have to have a ship? im no noob to FFXI but i dont think there are user ships ><

so what SE has created is a gimped-RNG-mod/Shipless-pirate-wanna-be.

sounds like oh-so-much fun....now something more to annoy people like me...

if i hear one more freakin "Arrgh" im gonna explode.. its bad enough you get those wierd people who get WAY into roleplaying, but this is rediculous.

(Pirate)(No thanks!)(No Patience)(No ship)(No dumbasses need apply)

straight up job-racism. i dont even care.

First of all. Before you criticize the Corsair job, at least spell since correctly... and oh yeah... you might want to wait till it comes out then try it.

Don't judge a book by its cover!

Well, maybe, you can be a Pirate named Boo Radley, and ride flying burning sharks instead. And your treasure gets stolen by a giant killer mockingbird so Scout(Who's actually a robot guy) teams up with the pirates to defeat the army of giant killer mockingbirds.

If you are absolutely lost, google search "How to kill a Mockingbird"

Wow.

Hmmm. I was hopeful this job was going to be a "Gunner" type job (aka, X-2 Yuna), but looks like it isn't. From the looks of things, the gun is still going to be a RNG weapon, and the job is just going to be another RNG with different skills. Yipee....
I MUST BE A PIRATE

corsair: (n) 1) A raider or pirate normally operating off the Barbary Coast of North Africa (Algiers, Morocco, Tripoli, and Tunis) during the 16th and 17th centuries.
(2) This term is used for privateers who operated in the Mediterranean.


I love FFXI and I have always been a thief. Something about that job just always appealed to me. Honestly, before this job was even mentioned I have always wanted just a little bit more out of thief, and specifically, I wanted a job that was called "Pirate". Well corsair is close enough for me!
I've taken a brief 7 month hiatus from FFXI because I'm deployed in the Navy. Ironically enough, we just did a couple months of anti-pirate operations off the Coast of Africa! LMAO! see here. I'm not stationed on the USS Churchill but I supported that operation for weeks and weeks (Intel Officer). I can't think of any thing about final that I'd like to come back to more than the prospect of becoming a THF/Corsair or Corsair/THF!
I hope that A) These two jobs integrate well and B) it isn't im-freakin-possible to open the ability to be a corsair. I don't have any uber high level characters.
Good luck to all aspiring Corsairs!!

About the Corsair and it Role
# Jan 28 2006 at 2:21 AM Rating: Decent
After hrs of research on the Internet and a long debate in my ls has come to this conclusion about the Corsair: 1) It will be based on the Lady Luck job from FFX-2 2) the 2HR will be totally random effect, Positive effects will be on the Party, or negative on the Mob 3) Job abilities will be tied dirrectly into the gun; like for example Elemental Reel, adds en effect to you ranged attack, Status Reel will add status effect to your ranged attack, etc. 4) AF will basically help you to narrow down the randomness of your reels. The 2HR may be affected by the Af but at this point no evidence is clear. In conclusion it will be another great sub and of course it will be my main job for quite along time.
Corsair's Knife

What are they going to do with the Corsair's Knife? Now that there will be a Corsair class are they going to change the name of this THF only weapon.
