machinists have strong wrists

they’re holding long guns with just one hand, probably takes some wrist work to hold it like that

That’s what she...nm.
Save Machinists’ wrists! Bring back Garo! ;)

This reminds of the shake machine parody in an episode of South Park. x3

On a serious not, while I do like the Ken handed gun play we get as Mch I do wish there were more times we actually wielded the gun two handed for certain attacks.

That'd look pretty silly with a lot of the smaller guns, especially the Garo one.

Honestly, I'd rather a full blown rifle wielding job than trying to tack two handed animations onto MCH.

I wish we could hip wear it like Han Solo! It's too similar to GNB they way it is now. Though I realize clipping would be a major issue with some outfits. I always considered MCH to be more of a Wild West type character. I mean my level 80 job armor comes with a cowboy hat IIRC.

They also have strong backs, the way their spines twist in some of those animations would break a lesser being in half.

As a Midlander female, I honestly wouldn't mind having an attack that would send my character flying backwards as a result of the recoil, despite holding the gun properly with two hands. ;p

I think that would be a comical, yet practical means to get out of an AoE quickly.

They have stronger legs, in combat they barely even touch ground, constantly jumping. I dream of a day when we get heated animation toggle, or full animations rework (lets be honest - low level animation have room for improvement).
Also they keep the gun one handed, run keeping it two handed, shoot while doing a backflip. Thats the weirdest designed job in the game. I'm looking forward to 6.0, hoping for rework.

Bards when using Empyreal Arrow or after cycling a song kept the upper torso locked, while the legs would turn and twist around.
Those were things of nightmares back in HW and SB.

It's interesting that BRD has this with Repelling Shot, even though bows usually don't have so much recoil to result in such a thing. A back-flipping trick shot for MCH would be nice...

Doubt they're going to rework it when machinist just got a huge rework with 5.0.

I think BRDs have it because they likely have to go into melee range to hit everyone with their songs. MCH have really good mobility so such an ability isn't necessarily needed, but definitely welcomed as it is free damage. However, when I play MCH I can't help but think that my character would constantly be knocked on her bum by the power of those rifles in the real world, so I thought, "Why not an ability that does exactly that?"

I should look into comic strip art to illustrate all these silly things that go on in my head about this game xD
