Sadly there is no room in XIVs design for a "true" gunner class, the exact same applied to a "true" archer class. Yoshida deemed those classes as options that don't bring enough to the table to be standalone Jobs, so they were merged with other concepts to give us Machinist and Bard.

If XIV had a bit more variety in its combat, I could see a trapper angle for either Ranger or Gunner working nicely, and for that matter an actual stealth angle for Thief rather than having it bleed into Ninja, but with the content we have being so rigid, and the strict adherence to the holy trinity of roles, can't really fit those kinds of Jobs into the game, sadly.

I sadly don't like it MCH should have something like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkGSg9O-stc and then combine it with more turret types and then a robot but not drill arms or something that kinda sucks.....

In the end i did not get what i wanted so i'm now playing Guren Laggan with MCH well done -.-

Is this Final Fantasy or Universe of Starcraft? As Kurando said, it pays homage to the FF machinist.

My question is, we have BLM master of DPS for casters, SAM master of DPS for melee, will MCH be Master of DPS ranged?

Yeah, I personally don't know if I'll level MCH this time around, I was one of the few who actually enjoyed 4.0 MCH and I wasn't impressed with the blatant Ashe (Overwatch version, not FFXII version) ripoffs with the mech summon and the look of their new AF.

But if this brings more people to actually play the job, it's a necessary thing. I'm certain that the folks that do try it out will outweigh the folks like myself that are probably dropping it, based on the initial reactions.

Wait wait wait. Let me know if I’m missing something. In this series with robots like construct 8, Barnabas, Omega (a raid we just did), Alexander (a raid we did in the past), the various magitechs and machines we have, a series with rocket punch (both a homage to mecha and so ingrained in the series that Gilgamesh does it in like all of his appearances, a game with a bipedal mechanized Behemoths, cyborgs, mecha junk Bahamut, all of the Weapons, and actual allagan constructs with various weapon configurations.

With all of this. Not only is MCH having a summonable one particularly egregious but this non drill equipped pilebunker is Guren Lagan? About as confusing to me as people who think this was inspired by Ashe despite everybody having Mustadio with his summonable robots on farm speed dial to be honest. But hey don’t let me stop ya if that’s in some kind of way a deal breaker. I thought it was pretty cool

I feel you on that. I tire greatly on this obsession with people wanting random insert weapon become a class. Long sword, 2 handed swords, 2 daggers, 2 swords, etc. I wish people would focus more on the overall class and abilities of something rather than just the boring weapons it holds. Literally no class in this game currently has an INTERESTING weapon. The weapon is just there as a way to further skills.

I cry a bit when people want a class based around a weapon that is super similar to everything else.

I'm sorry, I don't play MCH so I don't think I can provide meaningful input. But I see this thread, and all I can think of is a Roegadyn MCH bringing out the bot with "ROE! ROE! FIGHT THE PO-WAH!" playing in the background. I felt this needed to be shared.
