Its still really stupid to say why have gunblade when we have a weapon skin or a class that uses a gun with no slashing or explosive attacks from the barrel at all,
When jobs obviously have there own flare to them.

"You want gunblade lol just glamor lightnings weapon on paladin but you can't shoot or explode but its the same thing right"
