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

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

PVP always messes up PVE.. Wish it was never implemented in this game.

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.

Well then maybe he should take the guild out of limsa if he isn't going to add it.. >_>
I'm with you Llen I'm a sad panda I get no guns *reaches out for a hug*

5. E3 rolled around this year and he showcased the Rogue class with one of its jobs, Ninja. No mention of Musketeer anywhere except for an interview with 2p.com where he basically sums it up as "We're doing Rogue before Musketeer because something something pvp."

So you're right, he never promised the class. Tanaka promised the class way back, but that's ancient history now.

He's been saying for much longer that a unique stealth class would be a higher priority than a gun class considering there's already a bow class and two other ranged DPS. I'm sure a gun class is coming soon, and you insulting him is not gonna make it happen any faster.

Why should he remove it? He's still going to add it, he just didn't say when. He has never said it will be at the same time or before rogue, that's the community's own fault for making assumptions. It could still be before the expansion but after 2.4, at latest probably the expansion which should be soon ish.

And by that same logic I could say that we already have two melee damage dealers and only one range physical attacker, why add a 3rd melee ?

But saying for much longer stealth has been a priority I'm not so sure on I know he mentioned scout a few times but he also mentioned guns, dark knights and red mages as examples in other interviews. Unless of course you can link me to such an interview in which case my bad I just don't remember it being said.

I agree with it being a bit in the slap in face for people who have been waiting for a gun class since 1.0 like myself. I would not mind it not being released ( Ninja looked good btw! not hating on ninja) if you just gave us some sort of hint even a clue as to what direction you are taking it in just something, anything its been 4 years for some of us.

They are adding frontlines in 2.3. An 8 vivo style of open battlefield pvp could bring a huge boost in the popularity of pvp. A lot of people don't like arena based pvp.

He did mention those yes. But he specifically mentioned a stealth class as being the priority class he wanted to implement first. Then a gun class after only cause the guild is already in game.

He's also already told us the gun class wouldn't be how we thought it was going to be. And given his most recent interview sawing it would be too similar to a Mage class playstyle it seems a given that it won't be a ranged physical Dps. Hence your counter falls apart.

Gun Mage or Machinist with elemental gun/bullets

thats not even remotely the same thing. Damage type != playstyle.

[Gesser]

He's saying we're short a physical ranged attacker, which I agree. I'd think that more important than a third melee dps.
