Class merger of the Gunbreaker and the Red Mage

[DesiredStart]

I see. Well scratch this idea then. XD. Even though XIV claims that most Gunblades are just guns with swords attached to them. Also, the Gunbreaker's mid range attack that I was talking about earlier is called Lightning Shot and Rough Divide. Granted rough drive ultimately brings you in close it's still one that is executed from a distance. So if I wanted to play this role I could but I'd be hurting the party and I would prefer to just have an upgrade that would allow for Gunbreaker to not be a full on tank. Plus there's the Shirk role skill that I could use and make sure I'm not being targeted. That again would be rather crappie of me to do, so I don't. Alas, I could add in some healing skills like Aurora and Heart of Corundum. So I could attack and heal all from a distance of I wanted to just play things my way without the devs making changes. However I'd have to have a heart of stone to do that. Funny enough that's actually a skill that a Gunbreaker has. I might just have to play around with all these skills and create my own play style as tank relief / support.

Only the Gunblades from the Garleans are Guns with Swords.

That's not how it works. You will never replace a healer, you don't need to go to a ranged position to help with Aurora or HoC and the only ranged attack you have is Lightning Shot which is weak and, unless you take off tank stance, you will creep up on the other tank as all ranged attacks in the same vein (Lightning Shot, Tomahawk, Shield Lob and Unmend) all have increased enmity gain. You will just be a liability to the party.

XIV doesn't claim this- Infact inuniverse guns are derivative of gunblades. As in the gunblade came first before the gun.

Guns are gunblades without blades- and are made to fire at distance. While Gunblades we're the original. Gun in universe comes from Gunhildur, and even then the allagans had utilized gunblades designs to make "fire arms"

have you read what the gunblade is?, it isn't a gun it's a sword that use the vibration to heat the blade to make the explosive of it and gunbreaker is a good tank to be honest with you it isn't magical we aren't in ff8 either and Royal guard is a reference to bozja as they are the guard of the queen it isn't magical at all either
