I'm not saying the new gun class is going to be... but its going to be...

Regardless of what the new classes wind up being, it's very unlikely we would ever get a true dual-wielding class for the same reason that neither Rogue or Ninja have traditional dual-wield: it would cause a gear discrepancy between them and other classes. Being required to find two weapons to be effective for everyone else's one is something that SE has said they wanted to avoid. That's not to say we couldn't get another class that uses two weapons at once, but unless SE changes their mind you would only ever equip one weapon that comes as a set like Monk, Rogue, and Ninja arms.

The only other thing I see is them scratching musketeer (at least for now) changing the gun class to what becomes engineer but. The whole thing with Engineer/MACHINIST(the one that used a gun) is they "mickey mouse" items for special attacks which i don't see working for 14. I just don't see these two (in that light at least) coming into play on a game like 14. BUT rdm never was a gun user...

Would just like to point out that Paladin already needs to get two weapons to be effective. They use their shield for attacks so it is classified as a weapon in my book. They could come up with a way for it to be balanced. I have a few rough ideas that I came up with in the 30 seconds since I read your post. Given a few weeks, a game developer could come up with a pretty good system.

I always assumed it was just going to use Cid's primary weapon, just as Yugiri was a tease for Ninja, Cid in the Syrcus Tower cutscenes is a tease for Gunhaver.
