What kinda GM was this?

[Elexia]

You don't think they could have knocked something up quickly just for this event? Also watching the vid posted the "NPC/GM" didn't even use the weapon it was on his back the whole time while the buffs went off.

These specific effects been in the dats since closed beta 3, which are tied to a class that isn't fully implemented yet, so there's no actual "use" animation for it, just like Lancer's have access to jump already, but its rank 99.

Yes they are in the .dats BUT the game is undergoing heavy changes from the original plan, so while they have been in the .dats it doesn't mean that they will actually be used on a class. Like LNC having jump, with the job system coming Jump may very well find it's way to DRG.

are those effects tied to the arcanist tag? its obvious that the effects exist, im just wondering if they are tied to arc, the dude did it without even a weapon out, even with no animation, id think if they were using it through arc, it would have to hold its weapon, maybe not

He's not the first Arcanist in the game.

There are several NPCs in the Arcanist guild, most prominently in the Limsa storyline.
There is also one in the Alchemist storyline. Rank 20 Quest, I believe, but could be wrong.

Their weapons look like mechanized staffs. They have weird shapes and pieces that look like "Machina."

lol pretty much this, it's not the first Archanist in the game, but it's the first person controlled one that can use spells and you can check it's gear. It's basically shows the Archanist class is fully implemented into the game and is just not player accessible yet.

Not really if you check them out they are decked in Gladiator gear showing that they just pasted a archanist NPC ontop of there gear. NPC gear and our gear doesn't always match up in the .dats. I remember this from my .Dat moding days in XI trying to place a NPC's unique item on a PC didn't always work out that well.

I don't mean to get all Grammar Nazi on you guys, but it's spelled arcanist. Trying to prevent the improper spelling from catching on. Every time I see it spelled "archanist," all I see is "anarchist."

[Chronic]

So, which servers has he been seen on?

Urianger Augurelt appeared on Wutai a little after midnight (EST) this past Friday.

I'd just like to add that the Quick spell he casted on us was much slower in speed than that of Quickstride for Archers, but that's understandable given the spell duration.
