Here's hoping the pet can be made to have a variety of appearances.
I'm not sure if what we've seen of the turrets is enough to declare them devoid of personality. Look at your Ghost in the Shell robots whose names I don't feel like butchering. They have nearly the same design as the godless tanks from the same series. They don't have personality because they look as they do. They have personality because they express personality. Like the way Eos flutters about, These things could move in entertaining, but hopefully not distracting or tactically disadvantageous, ways as a means of showing personality. It is true that they might decide to have them as emotionless killing machines, but I wouldn't write them off just yet.
We can discuss the other stuff in a more appropriate venue.
I would be overjoyed if they gave us the Tachikomas! I have even suggested that in this very thread (or one of the other threads on Machinist).
But the floating turrets don't even have a "face" nor limbs ... floating and shooting seems all they are capable off - i.e. GW2 Engineer's turrets. :(
I rather they just gave us the Mammets ...
Sounds like a fun job.
Top of my list Dark knight, now its Machinist.
My girl is waiting for Dancer.
You're thinking ammo as in equipable items, I'm thinking ammo as a resource secondary to TP. Like in combat the gun user starts with six ammo units (assuming we want to follow the six-shot revolver rule), and certain attacks consuming ammo units instead of TP, with some abilities replenishing ammo units and one cooldown that gives you full ammo.
The devs have their reasons for scrapping things or not using them, and that in itself is fine. Doesn't mean it's perfect reasoning.
Calling Biggs and Wedge being the Job quest givers.
I just kinda wish Machinist would use a gunblade though......
And before 2.4, Thancred was a Gladiator. I suppose he might still be one in the quests he actually fights in, but he's SUPPOSED to be a Rogue. In short, there's nothing saying that Biggs can't show up one day after trading in his Hora for a gun. And besides that, there are at least a few Class questlines with major or semi-major NPCs that are not the same class as the quest. For example, Marauder's Guild questline features a Conjuror NPC who shows up for basically every single instanced fight, so Biggs could easily be a helper for such fights.
Edit: And I JUST now realized that's basically what you were saying. Guess I shouldn't try posting at 2 in the morning. @_@
