I don't know if you were someone who played Final Fantasy XI's Treasures of Aht Urghan Expansion or not, but in that expansion they introduced the Blue Mage.

What made the Blue Mage special more than anything else wasn't the fact that it could learn the spells and abilities of the monsters (yes there was that)... but rather it's ability to customize the spells, and traits that it had equipped at any given time.

What I mean by this is that at it's max level a Blue Mage could have 20 spells equipped at any given time, with a maximum of 70 Blue Magic Points to allocate those spells with. Basically it was the single most customizable class in that game. Though they had several dozen spells above and beyond what they could actually slot into their active spells.

That is essentially why I want the Blue Mage/Gun Mage. The customization feature that the Blue Mage would offer to the player.
