Concerning the 2 new Jobs

[Espon]

I don't see much of a point. I'm hoping the new job uses like a blade and pistol combo and has the ability to disengage to perform a ranged combo, kinda like a reverse Red Mage.

Well the Machinist quests involved a former pirate who used a pistol and a hatchet. Then again Merlwyb uses 2 pistols however she was apparently supposed to be an example of a Musketeer job class they planned to add before the 2.0 overhaul. I think there was even a job class icon for it on the same building the Marauder's guild occupies. Also other NPCs have shown to have their own customized job classes as well like Yshtola later essentially evolving into a sorceress where she becomes WHM + BLM at the same time.
