hints at new (gun using) class in-game

[DarkStaoneDragon]

My Wife noticed in the MRD Guild right next to the MRD sign is a sign with a pair of pistols on the opposite side of the arch, also I noticed Merlwyb Bloefhiswyn the leader of Limsa Lominsa has what looks like a double barrel flint pistol at the end of the mission "Feint and Strike" during the cut scene, I just didn't think anything of it till my Wife pointed out the sign, I'll go on my PC and take a Screenshot of the signs and the side of the room a little later. we haven't checked the other guilds for more clues, but looks like buccaneer/corsair may be coming (that's just a guess tho).

The Musketeer's Guild has been around since 1.0. It was relocated in 2.0 to the basement of the Marauders' Guild. It was promised as an upcoming class at release of 1.0, and Yoshi has said that he feels obligated to do something with it because of that. Nothing confirmed, though.

//EDIT: Sotek corrected my poor recollection.

Actually, in 2.0 the Marauders' Guild was moved to combine with the Musketeers'. The Marauders' Guild was originally located on The Astalicia.

OT: If you check the options for Free Company emblems, it currently has all the Class symbols as possible options, as well as the symbol for Musketeer.

Thank you for that correction. I will edit it in.

I wonder how they'll implemend it. Its been years since 1.0 and we know that merlwyb is a gun user + its been seen in cg movies and the latest 2.1 patch.

They've also got Muskets in a rack against the wall behind the counter at the Maelstrom's GC HQ.

Camp Overlook; there are boxes just outside of the camp with Rifles sitting on top of them.

I'd love for them to do something with the musketeer, and hopefully soon. It would be super exciting to see a new class before the expansion.

If you begin the game in LL during 1.0 you would have been sent early on to the MSK guild, where they hand you a gun for target practice, but someone notices the way you pose is similar to the way a certain Roegadyn held his in the into movie, and grows suspicious, taking the gun away quickly, saying you are not authorized.

Also in 2.0, on the right hand side of the tower's main floor are desks for the MSK guild, and an npc arguing with a city guard "Yellowjacket", that she didn't see why she needed a gun permit before using a gun.

Also Live Letter IX Yoshida said due to the guild already being established, he plans it to be one of the first new classes added.

Hmm interesting, I'll be making a point to keep my eyes open for other possible classes/jobs, I may just run around one day and just look for clues.

The first and only time we had a gun in our hand in the game
