I've seen this topic over in the SMN section and it's getting some good posts. So I decided I'd start one here.

For all you BSTs, the question is, if the job is available in in the new game, will you do it all over again? I will. BST and SMN will always be my first two loves of this game. And I'd gladly take both of them up again. New look, new gear, new abilities, new avatars?! Absolutely!

New Pets will be good!

rampage is getting boring
Also! since SMN's get blood pact... shudnt we get Sic pact!

Yeah, could never understand why we couldn't select WHICH TP move our pet would use.

I never could level a Beastmaster in this game, even with my PS2 healbot, but in XIV it will be the first I unlock (assuming that's the process) and the first I max.

I have a worry what will happen to this game if FF14 takes off.
I don't even know if I want to buy it let alone lvl bst in it.

I'm finging a lot of people are having that fear Janeash. A lot of people are concerned that they've invested so much time into this game that they can't even imagine starting all over from scratch.

I'm hoping for BST in XIV. SE already announced that the game is going to be more casual and solo friendly, so BST is something that I'm looking forward to.

If BST is in I'll play it. I just hope for a change to the job to enable better large events like Limbus / whatever and burning circles battles for missions. For solo play, it is fine as-is.

Either:
A ) Fix pet AI in battles like Limbus etc. so that they won't wake slept enemies that we don't direct them to attack even if that enemy hit them with an AoE
B ) If don't fix pet AI, Give a new ability in these situations that allows BST to DD on par with other DD's even without a pet. Maybe an animagus type ability where you become another form (I know it sounds like WoW druid but I never played that and don't even know what it is like in that game)
C ) Allow a pet that is callable without jugs so can dismiss and call more like SMN. Not as expensive as jugs or even free but can be levelled more like an NPC fellow (investment in time vs gil). So even if the pet AI again blows, can just call another 1 in a dungeon after it dies without burning gil or waiting on a timer.

Ummm and no more "happy heart beams" charm animation. There's got to be something more appropriate for taking charge of a mob and possibly making it fight to its death.
