Unless you mean the one on the lower left in the "background" washed out. Reminds me of FFTA2 Spellblade.
Look closely at the girl in yellow in this poster.
She has a buckler in her off hand and there is a hint of a sword hilt in her right.
Also her armor being a combination of cloth and metal is reminiscent of RDM armor. I would remind you that the RDM rumors include Fencer as a stepping stone.
Arcanist not Scholar, there is no Geomancer class either, the new class and job is Summoner and Arcnaist.
Sorry, book as weapon and mortarboard as hat = SCH. Besides,
SMN is pictured at 9:00 in this poster. Horn and green AF....
Just because a career or job has neither been released or even announced doesn't mean Squenix can't troll us by drawing it.
First anyone who has played the original XIV will identify the woman in yellow as Monk, it' even wields the relic weapon.
As someone who probably doesn't follow the XIV forum, read/watch every developer letter, or even played the original, maybe you should do some research of the upcoming class & jobs at release in the XIV forum before you make such assumptions. Stop thinking with a XI mindset. The wheel individuals represents the DoH DoL DoM DoW Armory System in the background and Job System in the foreground.

That's a picture highlighting jobs not classes. Arcanist is a class not a job. It's also wearing classic Scholar attire.
They did state that they intend on making multiple jobs branch off of the same class.
They've stated in the past that the Armory System classes will also have their own AF. You have to remember that the Armory System classes' quests ended at 37 with it pretty much stopping to a halt in the middle of the class storyline, the AF for the Armory System classes will more than likely go through the continuing class quests.
They're highlighting the Arcanist Class in the painting because it'a new and wanted it to stand out.
