To Yoshi P & Team, can you add a nice variety in Musketeer's arsenal and not limit them to only pistols? For all I know the team has already designed a multitude of different weapons but I just wanted to express interest in wanting to use the type of muskets that I have seen posted all over the Marauder/Musketeer's Guild and the Maelstrom Command. For those that aren't aware I'll post some screenshots below.
Here are some muskets you'll find in Limsa Lominsa.

These pistol wielding guards are posted all over Limsa.

I am highly anticipating this class and hope Yoshi P & team add a variety weaponry much like gunners in previous Final Fantasies(See examples here.).

I don't think I could be anymore excited for a class/job than I am for this one.

(Long Rifles) (Yes Please)
I'm still kinda miffed from the 1.x Limsa opener when it showed a maurader using a pistol and an axe... Give us musketeer soon SE! -

Maybe one class will get handguns, and another one will get rifles?
Also, on some tables in Hauke Manor, there are also rifles.
Or
Gladiators get daggers and swords. -
11-09-2013, 04:52 AMAmyasI noticed this too, I really hope they add some awesome lore behind how firearm technology came to Eorzea.Quote:

SE need to be really careful with the introduction of this and a Gunblade class.
Everyone, myself included wants to see these appear, but there's the problem - The ratio of DD's to Healers and Tanks is already an issue, adding another DD class that literally everyone wants to rock is going to make it even more difficult for people to group. -
11-09-2013, 05:19 AMTanamaLooking further into Final Fantasy's history of gunners it could possibly becomeQuote:

One could hope SE has another tank and healer up their sleeve when they introduce Musketeer.Quote:

Ranger from a SE MMO uses a bow primarily. (can use gun)
We mention long guns, such as rifles. That would not fit with corsair.
Most of the others could work tho.
Gunblades for a tank class. I'd support it. Ranged stance for kiting, melee for spank and tank, damage mitigate and bonuses to parry. -

Still dying for this class. It's been three bloody years SE. Give me my gun back.

Worth noting that almost all of these are one-offs or are classes not defined by guns.

Engineer/Machinist only uses guns in the Ivalice setting. Gun Mage is a one-off Blue Mage, where Blue Mages always use random weapons (like cutlery). Ranger, of which Hunter and Sniper are game-specific variants, is defined by bows rather than guns.Quote:

It will be one or the other, one is a two handed weapon, one is a one handed weapon. I doubt they will go the GLD/CNJ route with it and allow off hand/single or two hand. If anything the Rifle would be the job branching from the class...imo

I think a pistol could end up with higher attack rate, lower damage, lower range, and the rifle could end up with lower attack rate, higher damage, higher range. Might make for different strategies on different bosses. On Titan, for example, you wouldn't want to be on the edge shooting with a rifle, but you could be mid-range shooting with either rifle or pistol.

11-09-2013, 09:09 AMTanamaActually, rangers have two primary skills in FFXI which are Archery and Marksmanship. Their ultimate weapons consisted of bows, guns and a crossbow.Quote:

I've got an even better idea, they cram in as many ranger weapons from PSO as possible.
