See these rifles? Give em to a new healer!

[Rosa_Frandlia]

A "chemist" healer idea might work pretty well with it. They don't even necessarily need to shoot potions, they could still throw em, with the weapon just being a... weapon.

Alternatively if we do want to shoot potions, the healer could use something more akin to a grenade launcher instead. Or if we do use the rifle, who says it has to shoot anything physical - it could be healing aether. Etc.

There's a lot of possibilities, really.

Throwing potions is exactly what chemists did in Final Fantasy Tactics. The gun was their weapon for attacking enemies like you mention. There they took potions from your inventory, which to me doesn't seem to be as good of a gimmick (and best potions aren't exactly at the level of healing spells) and instead I'd love to see instead mixing potions similar to mudra or dances.
