three things i would love to see for Machinist

1) a buff of some sort to the flame thrower ... it should be a powerful DPS tool since it has a long cooldown, we have to channel it and we have to stand still or it cancels. with all those limitations it should be one of the hardest hitting skills in the game if we get the full duration of it. Or add something to it to promote us to use it, maybe have it debuff enemies hit by flamethrower and for the duration of the channel.

2) i would love to see the permanent turret return. probably the minority but that was one of the things that drew me to the machinist class.

3) utility of some sort ... i am personally fine doing less DPS but as long as my class brings something else to the table. Bard and dancer are buffers make machinists debuffers.
