    Ftfy. Makes more sense to focus on limited animation differences with two jobs and the same weapons than to create two entire skillsets with similar roles.

    That, on the other hand, would probably need to be a different class -- melee attacks would require an entirely different ability and animation set. I mean, you could have people just use it as a gun, but how unsatisfying would that be?

    Worth noting that almost all of these are one-offs or are classes not defined by guns. Among them, "Gunner" could encompass Gunner, Corsair, and Fusilier at the very least, since they're all the basic gun-user classes for their respective games. Engineer/Machinist only uses guns in the Ivalice setting. Gun Mage is a one-off Blue Mage, where Blue Mages always use random weapons (like cutlery). Ranger, of which Hunter and Sniper are game-specific variants, is defined by bows rather than guns.

    Actually, rangers have two primary skills in FFXI which are Archery and Marksmanship. Their ultimate weapons consisted of bows, guns and a crossbow.

    In the Alpha build, did Musketeer have a full set of class traits and abilities?

    I wish it was available in alpha. I meant that for people who started in Limsa, one of the story cutscenes involves giving you a gun. You aim it, then have it taken away 5 seconds later.

    It's where my sig is from.
