The Mystery Gun Job

[Eidin205]

Haha I love all of the ideas coming out of this already! I'm a huge fan of imagining classes because I love playing all sorts of roles.

I brought up Gun Mage 'cause I've been playing the FFX-2 remake on the Vita and it was just the top thing on my mind at the time :P. I actually would MUCH rather see a Chemist come out of this. I love healing roles and they're almost always my main but I got bored of SCH and WHM is very... common (although powerful). I just love the whole stash / mix idea. This is also coming from FFX-2 again though and the alchemist dressphere :P. *Rikku uses a stashed Hi-Potion* "I WAS SAVING THIS FOR SOMETHING SPECIAL!!"... not only that but I can totally see Chemist working.

Apparently the gun class "isn't what players are expecting it to be" so...maybe a healer class? Shoot heals at you lol.

Monster hunter, rapid fire heal shots on light bow gun or use a heavy bow gun for umph.

I'd like to see a gun blade tank and renzokouken the crap out of stuff.

What about Machinist from Tactics? eh? ehhhh????

I'd love to see Chemist, too! This was my concept of Chemist > Time Mage / Geomancer. It would add a Healer to the class-roster and add a Healer and Tank to the Job roster, to balance things out a bit.

Chemist would be awesome

I would love a druid/shapeshifter

Well we already know musketeer will be the base class, I think it will get a dps/support job in the form of either Fusilier or Canoneer the way the class played in tactics advanced 2 would fit ffxivs style very nicely. And other job if the rumors are true and the class does have a choco pet I could see the other job being Chocobo Knight and being a tank class that swaps hate back and fourth between it and its pet.

Possible Jobs that will be from Musketeer -

Gun Mage - Class from X-2, a range DPS that uses Blue Magic.
Chemist - From Tactics, Healer Class, but if musketeer is DPS, I highly doubt MSK > Chemist unless they release another DPS job like how it was for ACN.
Corsair - From XI, Ranged DPS with support ability - Very similar to BRD and will go well with Limsa Lominsa's pirate them.
Machinist/Gunner - From Tactics and Tactics Advance, same class pretty much, just different name- Ranged DPS class with enfeebles and CC. Does not go well with the Pirate theme of limsa, will work better if there were quests that brought you to the Garlean Empire which is more machina based.

There were some other hand-cannon/gun-wielding jobs as well in FFTA2:

Fusilier: Fire/Thunder/Ice damage and Confuse/Charm/Blind/Silence/Stop. Could function as a DPS or a tank perhaps with charm being used as a taunt.
Flintlock: Heals HP/MP, Protect/Shell/Regen/Teleports/Consumes own HP for big damage. Could function as a support DPS or a Healer.
Cannoneer: Self buffing DPS and can heal others' HP and MP.
Agent: Focused mainly on buffing females with Regen/Astra/Cover and Charms enemy or raises Atk & Matk of party/Heals own HP and dispels enemy/Slow/Berserks+crithit on a party member. Could drop the female part and they could function as a tank or support DPS.
