Ok, so. I've been having this idea floating around in my head ever since I first saw him.
Rhitahtyn Sas Arvina, the boss from Cape Westwind, used shields that have what seem like large 5- or 6-shot revolvers mounted to them. Once I saw him, and how his fight style works, I almost immediately thought, "Huh. That would make a pretty sweet tank class. I'd definitely play it." It would be a very unique class and, as far as I know, FFXIV is the only Final Fantasy game that has something like that.
I am 100% onboard with a gunshield wielding tanking class.
Dual-wielding gun-shields...
I'd play it.
Would certainly be an interesting new job for a tank.
Call it Cannoneer and I'll be on board.
Tbf I think most people would be blown away by out styleish arm cannons.
Oh that pun :3
I wouldn't mind a greathammer tank, a scythe wielding tank (would have more of an AoE/debuffer focus), or inspired by (but not just like) Tera's Brawler, some kind of Ironworks gauntlet tank.
Well, it's been a crazy long time since I made this post. My desire for a dual gunshield job still exists, however. I think it would be a very unique job to f14 that hasn't been done in any other Final Fantasy, and unless I'm mistaken, any other MMO.
Heh, I didn't even realize that this post had got some replies and engagement. After I made it, I never came back to look at it, ha!
It's nice to know whatever the jobs they add are, somebody out there has been waiting for it.
It does seem like a really cool tank, I hope the clue was just that much on-the-nose. XD
Gunshield would be amazing. I'd be all over that.
