I'm assuming that's why they scrapped Machinist coming from Musketeer completely because adding a standalone job is better than continuation of a class -> job system.

    Musketeers are remnants of 1.0, just like the rest of the classes.
    They could still put it in. I mean think about WHY you see both the Axe and the Gun everywhere. You don't see this combination anywhere else. My thinking is that at the surface it likely would have been the precursor class to Machinist, but there doesn't need to be just one gun job. The Garleans have Gunblades. There are at least 3 MCH weapons that are guns with blades on them, but they're not used as such I believe. They could also just put the musketeer class in as a "starts at level 1" class that has a different level 30+ job than MCH.

    Not that I'm fond of guns (I'm not), but it seems like this was such a key piece of V1.0 storyline that just vanished, yet the remnants of it are in the game:

    Does this guy look familiar? (That's Rostnsthal , originally from V1.0's Limsa Lominsa storyline , thread on him over here from 2014: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...The-Barracudas )



    I'll give you a hint
