The Mystery Gun Job

[OmegaNovaios]

Hey Everyone!!

Is anyone else hoping that this mystery gun class that was discussed is basically Gun Mage like from FFX-2? Honestly I loved the way that class worked and I figure it kills two birds with one stone getting blue magic AND a gun class out of the way.

As much as I love BLU and like to see it released earlier rather than later I'd rather not see it incorporated as a Gun Mage. I much prefer the melee + magic setup and the great versatility to perform any role that it has that just wouldn't make much sense in certain roles (IE tanking at point blank range while carrying pistols).

I'm not opposed to Gun Mage, in fact that something I would like to see in the future as it seems interesting, but it's not how I want to be using Blue Magic.

some logical combinations based on previous FF jobs, just imagination , please dont take seriously ok ..
MSK 30 + THM 15 > Gun Mage (Magic Dps)
MSK 30 + ARC 15 > Sniper ( Burst physical DPS)
MSK 30 + CNJ 15 > Corsair ( buff/support)
MSK 30 + ACN 15 > Puppetmaster (pet dps) (puppetmaster could also come from pug + acn .. depends if SE whats the player to ranger or melee )

Haha I love all of the ideas coming out of this already! I'm a huge fan of imagining classes because I love playing all sorts of roles.

I brought up Gun Mage 'cause I've been playing the FFX-2 remake on the Vita and it was just the top thing on my mind at the time :P. I actually would MUCH rather see a Chemist come out of this. I love healing roles and they're almost always my main but I got bored of SCH and WHM is very... common (although powerful). I just love the whole stash / mix idea. This is also coming from FFX-2 again though and the alchemist dressphere :P. *Rikku uses a stashed Hi-Potion* "I WAS SAVING THIS FOR SOMETHING SPECIAL!!"... not only that but I can totally see Chemist working.

I'd love to see Chemist, too! This was my concept of Chemist > Time Mage / Geomancer. It would add a Healer to the class-roster and add a Healer and Tank to the Job roster, to balance things out a bit.

Chemist would be awesome

Apparently the gun class "isn't what players are expecting it to be" so...maybe a healer class? Shoot heals at you lol.

Monster hunter, rapid fire heal shots on light bow gun or use a heavy bow gun for umph.

I would love a druid/shapeshifter

Well we already know musketeer will be the base class, I think it will get a dps/support job in the form of either Fusilier or Canoneer the way the class played in tactics advanced 2 would fit ffxivs style very nicely. And other job if the rumors are true and the class does have a choco pet I could see the other job being Chocobo Knight and being a tank class that swaps hate back and fourth between it and its pet.
