Dagger AND Gun Jobs confirmed for Soon after 2.3 - don't fret!

[Nero]

I'm not holding any hope for musketeer anymore...

Had the chance to show it WITH Rogue/Ninja. Just like how they had the showcase video for ACN/SMN/SCH (3 new 'roles', mind you, rather than 2).

They did not. They did ACN and SMN only for a long period of Time, while SCH was not mentioned for a while.

Everyone keeps bringing up when he said dagger and guns coming sooner than we thought, but he said not what we expected. EVERYONE expects musketeer, so you know...even when he announces it, it might not be musketeer, but something else entirely. I dont think he ever said dagger and guns would be at the same time, just after 2.3, but regardless, he's given his reasons on why no msk.

Not to mention, it might not be that far off anyway. He said before launch of ARR, the first expansion would be around a year after launch, and 2.4 will be the 1 year mark. The timing for 2.5 will be christmas. The plotline thus far has focused on a new primal each time, and after Shiva in 2.4 we're left with...what? The expansion, which we know will have new classes, could be around 2.5 or 2.6 time. We know they're working on the gun class so if it's not out with rogue, it'll most likely be out then, along with the tanks and healers he mentioned coming then, which IMO is much better timing.

Couldn't find the official video but I think they released that video the same time as E3 2013's time I think? Their 'promotion' at this time had the video showcasing all 3. And tbh 2-3 months of 'arcanist in development' during that beta phase is roughly the same as how rogue was teased with 2.2's patch.

Looking for this video's release also further shows that SE probably only has the manpower for one class a year...

Anyone noticed he described gunner as a physical Black mage?

I'd imagine so, seeing Archer is all about spamming 111112 for awhile. Then that whole crit DoT business end-game. They're damage is based on steady output... kinda like monk (but not as 'fun' as monk).

You can expect whatever you want, but how is he making excuses when he never promised anything.

I think a lot of people are just annoyed that there are hints of a gun class in the game, but we haven't heard anything about it but really vague information. I'm sure if you've looked around limsa you've seen the banners with dual pistols on them, and that many NPCs carry a gun in a holster. Merlwyb uses guns as a weapon. It's teasing the players to the point that it's frustrating. Yoshi hasn't "promised" them, but people can't help it if they jump to the conclusion that we are getting a gun class at some point.

"a class with guns which will be similar to mage class that uses magic"

Make it a healer..make it a healer..

Get annoyed all you want, but don't be calling the man a lier and that he is making excuses for not adding the class or job. So childish.

Why are they factoring pvp into anything? All people use it for is wintrading and glamor gear.

Had the chance to show it WITH Rogue/Ninja. Just like how they had the showcase video for ACN/SMN/SCH (3 new 'roles', mind you, rather than 2). 2.2 storyline had Rogue/Ninja written all over it with animations from the class itself (hinted AoE ability during the CS). The question was "any new classes/jobs?" in the first place, so why waste time answering that question again two days later?

Musketeer has nothing showing it's coming other than the icon and NPC 'everyday training' animations which showcase nothing of it's class. Not to mention Limsa has it's 'third' guild now... which is 'not' musketeer.



Aka we only have the manpower to include one new class per year...

Could be worse, he could have all but confirmed you're not getting Musketeer at all. Thief fans got that instead.

I hate to burst some of your bubbles but thursday is all about 2.3. Its part 2, its why its labeled as Part XV

You speak as if he couldn't use E3 to announce another new job before he delivers his Live Letter. I'm not saying he will or he won't. I'm just saying Yoshi-P can and will do whatever he wants, espcially during E3.
