New Weapon Types and the Jobs that could use them

[Etrigan]

I just thought it might be cool to see about any new weapon types that could potentially be added to the game / current jobs.

That being said I think one that would be cool is Nunchaku for Monks to wield.

And recycling what's been said before, Weaponskills for throwing weapons such as boomerangs or even throwing stars would be nice as well.

I've always wanted whips for BST.

whips for DNC, they should also give dnc katana and better sword/h2h skill
great hammers for WAR i guess(but they get everything....)
nunchaku seem NINy to me, tonfa are MNKy

and ofcourse GUNBLADES!!! with a gunblade job

Ooh gunblades. Me likey.

They totally have to attach a gun to the joytoy.

Yeah gunblades is the obvious one but I totally agree, even better with ammo combinations. Might even need a new job to shoehorn it in though as I don't think it fits any in FFXI.

What about a bladed pole type weapon.... Think darth maul with blades.

Fits COR well enough.

Really? I always see COR as a proper Jack Sparrow pirate type. The gunblades are more futuristic in nature, especially with Lightning, maybe less so with Squall. If it's gotta go somewhere then COR is best but I think a new job would be better.

Ranger's have hand cannons >_> yet Corsair's don't even have muskets/rifles. Corsair is also at least somewhat proficient with swords, plus parrying. At the very least Corsair is lacking in the weapons department. I do admit that gunblades are a bit futuristic but, that's just a general statement that could also be used to simply keep them out of the game altogether. I won't really argue this much further and just say "ps2 limitations".

Edit: Where's my pet monkey
