I know what you're all thinking: "But Advent, Rogue exists in this game which is literally Thief without the negative connotation!" And you're exactly right, however it has been brought to my attention that we really don't have a job that uses mage mashers, and to that extent I now introduce to you.... Treasure Hunter!
Locke is a lovable character in FFVI and his best weapon was equipping the genji glove and offering and doing 8 attacks with the Atma Weapon and Valiant Knife. Many people called him a thief, but he would always interject with the phrase "Treasure Hunter". My petition is to add the luxurious RP of a Rogue with "Steal" instead of "Mug" and cause the developers a slight headache at reskinning weapons to have a 3% chance at inflicting poison status, or silence on enemies, as well as giving the players a monotonous and arduous "Treasure Log" which you will then enact out on an adventure to steal, i mean ahem, recollect treasures that are hidden away in various dungeons, or being held on by various bosses(probably 3 bosses from dungeons of 15-50, and maybe an additional 2 more items "reclaimable" from bosses in dungeons level 60) On top of that there could be an additional 3 items you may randomely get for doing Treasure Maps in the various areas that are no more than 20 to 30 less levels from our current max. When you reach the peak level you will be introduced into a Carnival like, Heist instance, thats literally palace of the dead but reskinned walls to look like castles to which you will try to reclaim, treasures that are being protected by infrared lasers, or booby traps, to add to you Treasure Log. Since this will be a limited job, no need to worry about anyone joining your serious raids with the idea they're just going to steal the raid bosses weapons, because it will be a liesurely solo limited job, in which you can finally inact that pickpocketting dream.
Relive those epic moments like Locke, when you had to steal a merchants clothes to sneak by soldiers, and offer tea to a philanthropist, to get clues on how to best steal, er "reclaim" treasures hidden in his 50 floor high mansion. Steal security guards clothing, and sneak your way through a full 200 floors just to get that treasure thats being locked up in high security. Use your picklocking ability to unlock said treasure, and find secret entranceways to speed your butt out of their before too many guards on alarm catch you for being too slow, and your sleep daggers can only stop one of them at an attractive 3% chance per hit, to which your next autoattack will probably just wake them out of it anyway.
Sign up today, and enjoy the epic life of a criminal errrr treasure hunter, who gets an area called the "thieves den" totally not stolen from ivalician lore in tactics, where you secretly leave your treasure you've collected all over the floor like a dungeon area most adventurers swear a dragon would be squatting all over. Feed that hoarder fantasy, where one can never get enough gil for his efforts, and the true glory is having a secret area where you hide said treasure like a true pirate.
