Honestly, the whole idea of "solo duties" and how awesome what they'd offer -- done well -- would be to the surrounding game still has me imagining MCHs piloting silent drones through dangerous open-dungeon-esque cityscapes to check for patrols and entrance ways, setting breach charges, and so forth. Their tech's barely been touched on and seems like it'd be a perfect recipient of certain Garlean aspects.

I do really want a Soldier though. I'd prefer it to be a tanky DPS over an actual tank (ideally, with no such "Role" attached directly), but as long as we have to chop off as many appendages as it takes to stuff it in one role box or the other, I guess either will do. Ideally with just a big damn blade, though certain takes on the gunblade... could... maybe work?

A judge with dual swords seems an aesthetic more distinct from Warrior or Dark Knight, and would be my preferred tank prospect over Soldier, though I'm not gun-ho about it.

I don't want Gunhammers. Haters gonna hate, and I hate gunhammers and gunlances.
I agree, i'd prefer a gun lance as a DPS as opposed to a tank. Dual sword tank sounds really really really cool and im excited just thinking about it and I hope we some more BLU fever leaks soon.

I also agree with no hammers, SE imo doesn't have the chops to pull it off. Hammers / maces are VERY boring in terms of weapon design and considering how much ugly axes they reveal, I dont have much faith in them if im honest. I'd refer something like a sword whip like Ivy from Soul Caliber with a pull mechanic instead of a throw object aggro button. Addition SE seems to be alot better with Swords, lances and bows over other weapon types.
