    Although I'd also love to see Rinoa's Pinwheel Would make an amazing class!
    I doubt it be a class, more like a throwing weapon for Thief or Ninja or bluemage.

    I know gunblades are already kinda in the game with imperials and all but i would like to use one^^
    and i dont see the problem with it being an imperial weapon, after 5 years there could be some development with cid being there and all. If he didnt die.

    That may be so, but that doesnt prevent us from using some ourself does it?
    But you have a point it could be a bit akward to use the enemies weapon.

    You would need a proper introduction of the weapon to the game, with back ground and all. Luckely we have cid on our side (if he is still alive xD)

    3 Scenarios:

    Scenario A: We form a loose alliance with Garlemald until we deal with the Bahamut threat. As a result, Garlemald gives us some of their tech (IE gunblades).

    Scenario B: Cid develops some form of a Gunblade for use. He's a Garlean after all.

    Scenario C: Someone cleans up the battlefield and takes all the gunblades from fallen Garleans and trains us how to use them.

    As far as how exactly they'll play out? Make it a hybrid of Gladiator and Archer. Have 2 modes: melee and ranged with different abilities for each. ARC abilities can be used for gun mode, Gladiator can be used for the melee mode.

    Course, this Armoury system throws a wrench into the plans.

    I would think this would come out with the Muskateer class!

    While seeing a Muskateer with a Gunblade might be odd. It seems like an excellent tie in.

    Maybe they will only make certain smaller gunblades for Muskateer while the other kinds would be for other classes.

    I'd like to see these as well.

    They wont kill off cid lol, if they had we would have seen it and Cid is kind of a recurring theme it wouldnt do to kill him off before he got to see ARR, Think of all the new players who would have never met FFXIV's Cid if they killed him off now =P

    Apologies for doing a necro on this thread... but I thoroughly like this idea (I've also been a fan of the gunblade from FFVIII)... plus, Lucke's speculations on the three possible scenarios sounded interesting.

    I've been eagerly looking forward to how Ninja, Samurai and Muskeeteer will turn out if they are implemented... and if the gunblade style of weapon can eventually become the AF for the musketeer class, that would be great.
