And FFXIV 2.0 new class and job is.....

Arcanist and Summoner

Though they contain no pictures (unless summoners look awfully like Paladins) the following pages (as of writing) exist on the FFXIV website by typing their URLs in:

EDIT: Links dead already. See below for screen caps.

http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/about/game/armoury/magic/arcanist
http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/about/game/jobs/summoner

Along with the following text:

Arcanist

Accompanied by a familiar in battle, adepts of the art of arcanum derive their might from symbols of power born of geometric techniques hailing from across the southern seas. Held within special grimoires, these symbols lend shape to the arcanist's aether, thereby allowing him to produce myriad powerful spells.

Using magicked gemstones upon which the selfsame symbols are graven, arcanists are also able to summon forth the ephemeral being Carbuncle to carry out their bidding.

Summoner

The beast tribes of Eorzea worship and summon forth beings known as primals, among which are Ifrit, Garuda, and Titan. Yet what is a god to one man is a demon to another, for the city-states of Eorzea see these beings as a grave threat to their collective survival.

In times immemorial, there lived mages who had not only the power to summon the primals, but also the means to transmute the primals' essences, thus binding them to their will. Known simply as summoners, the existence of these men and women and their arcane art have been all but lost to the ages.





So there you have it.

Links are dead. I had the pages open in tabs still though so I screencapped them.

oh that's very exciting =) i loved SMN in XI, hopefully they allow SMNs to do more than just bind the one per server avatars though.. you'd hope for some weaker mid level summons like siren, giant cactaur, golem, sylph, or at least some elementals or something.

disappointingly, if you try /summoner on the end of the url it takes you to a blank place holder page but /beastmaster and /redmage do not :'(
