Shadowbringers abbreviations?

[Kaelk]

GNB looks way more aesthetically-pleasing than GUN, GUN is meme-ish looking, can't really see them going with an abbreviation that silly (no matter how cool it'd be). As for Shadowbringers I straight up type the whole thing out or I'll get confused.

I agree, and have used GNB in most cases.

I wasn't inferring any trends, just highlighting that there's no hard and fast rule, that there's no reason it couldn't be GUN.

While there isn't a hard/fast rule for abbreviations, they tend to lean toward consonants over vowels. Looking at all the class/jobs across DoM, DoW, DoH and DoL, equalling 36, and their most common abbreviations. Not counting the five that start with a vowel (ACN, AST, ARC, ARM, ALC) There are a total of 24 that do not use vowels in the abbreviation, leaving seven that do, ROG, NIN, SAM, WAR, BLU, CUL, MIN.

It would stand to reason that while yes, there is a chance it would be GUN, it is much more likely it will be GNB.

SHB/DNC/GBR is what I have been using instinctively.

But forget the abbreviations for a second. What I want to know more what the job symbols would look like for the 2 new jobs. When will those end up being shown?

That would be really cool if they could fit that on the job icon.
