Well. Fencing uses 1 handed swords and agility. If this one uses great swords, i don't think they could call it a fencer or any form of the term.
New Job: Rune Fencer
New Job: Rune Fencer
Closest thing to fencing in FFXI is probably modern-day DNC, amusingly enough. The weapon choice is sorta off since you'd only use a short sword/dagger offhand (DNC's swords are fittingly all rapiers, just low skill), but otherwise it's sort-of close.

RDM was the original Fencer. Artifact weapon: Fencing Degen. Even their armor and FFXI lore suggest fencing. Particularly Elvaan sword stances, was a fencing stance.

-Rune Knight(Fencer. Whatever.) will be a tank job, like PLD and NIN. Its main focus will be elemental defense.
-By using their abilities, they gain the power of a rune. There are two types of Runes, Elemental Runes and Enchant runes.
-Elemental Runes will increase the ability powers and give auto-attacks an En- effect
-Enchant runes are divided into Attack and Defense runes. Attack will deal big elemental damage and Defense runes will increase elemental defense and do various things.
Copy/Paste from here.

And alot of parrying too usually , maybe they will up the proc rate, especially if its supposed to be a tank job too.
Wait.... there was a job called Red Mage in FFXI?
Sad they went with fencer over knight (for those of us that played the old FF games) which makes me lean towards the use of 1handed swords. The pics look to be huge weapons though.
I can't really complain, this is just something to keep the game going and anything new is welcome.

Now I want to know if they're putting Rune Fencer on Almace. :D

Degens/Rapiers are the sexiest swords anyway, I wouldn't be sore if those are what Rune Fencer uses as long as they add some good ones.

I honestly think that Fencer was mistranslated. Knight seems more likely. In which case,
Final Fantasy Tactics Rune Knight was the ***.

If that's the case, I'm going to have to try it out. Just as I was debating on quitting ffxi....

People can't plan 9months ahead? >_> Wonder what people do when trying to have kids then. Wait for the week before its due? <.<
/jackass off
/shutdown
/goodbye
More like 9+ months of anticipation to play the new jobs. ; ;
Right, because children have the same priority as the expansion for a video game.
Though I see your point. Withdrawn.

If they get the greatsword, they had better get Spinechiller, or atleast give it to drk. That is one bad *** looking weapon skill, and heavily damaging as well.
Wonder if it'll have special offhand "rune" items. I don't see it using a shield at all as that would be pretty self-defeating.

SE is adding RDM Tier3 Merits?

Ooh that brings some new questions to mind. If they don't implement a job-specific offhand, how would dual-wield function with the En-spell type JAs? :o

Would only allow it to work with offhanded knives/short blades!
Most traditional/competitive fencing doesn't utilize an offhand weapon though.

Most "traditional/competitive" sports aren't really anywhere near the original arts anymore to begin with. Fencing is now a sport, and has lost it's original forms, and much of it's history.
