I hope the Samurai will dual-wield swords. Final Fantasy XIV already have two sword wielding Tank jobclasses. Gladiator/Paladin and Dark Knight. Not to mention the Red Mage will wield a sword. To give the Samurai jobclass just a single katana would make it too much like the Dark Knight, imo.
So to make it a bit more unique in weaponry and stance, it would be cool to see the Samurai swing two katanas instead of just having one, making it a bit less traditional.
That said, if the Blue Mage also returns, it might become the jobclass dual-wielding swords, as it did in FFXI.
However, there are alot of other weaponry versions of the Blue Mage. It could wield a whip, like Quistis from FF8, who was the game’s Blue Mage. Or maybe a magic gun, like the Gun Mage from FFX-2, which was that game’s version of the Blue Mage.
I would personally prefer the whip for Blue Mage and dual-wield katanas for Samurai.
But what do you think?
