What I've seen so far in 2.x is that you could reasonably play a landowner or business owner in La Noscea or the Black Shroud, and in that way be upper class. I don't see any evidence that Limsa Lominsa or Gridania have a typical feudal nobility system. Gridania does seem to have a certain degree of classism based on how "close" you are to the elementals and nature -- certainly, the Conjurers and Herbalists are that way -- but no noble class per se, and Limsa Lominsa appears to be pretty much a benevolent dictatorship of the Admiral with a strong meritocracy component.

So, I'd recommend going with "owned land or a business" and is thus upper class through money. I don't see support in lore for a feudal nobility, or even a parliamentary nobility, outside of Ul'dah.

EDIT: I don't know much of the lore outside of the three main city-states, so that's what I'm basing the above on. Smile
