Plea - if Musketeer becomes a Healer...

[mdha02]

Well if you're going to quit the game if they make the gun class a healing class you might as well cancel your subscription now. Because it has been stated we are getting a DPS, tank, and healing classes. NIN=DPS, DRK=tank, gunner=?. Well it looks like there is only one roll left. I wonder what it is?

I'll do so when the next class is officially announced as such, your words mean nothing to me. The only person(s) i'll trust with giving out such info is the developers themselves.

Why are people counting NIN? Did they say that the expansion would only have 2 new jobs?

Nope!

Which brings to mind that they only said new Jobs and did not specify a number of new Jobs.

This could mean there are far more new Jobs planned that they do not want to reveal quite yet or plan to reveal as we get closer to 3.0 release.

Well you would think they would reveal a job at each fan fest but that didn't happen (N.A.). They only said a healer and tank job was in the expansion(never said dps). And a lot of people like to ignore the fact that "Multiple" can actually mean 2. People would be way more hyped if they here "Multiple" vs 2 jobs. I'm calling it now it will be 2 jobs based on what has happened.

it's funny that you're pleading about something, that hasn't even been hinted at...
i don't think a heal-gunner, fits this game at all, certainly not chemist.
We already have alchemists, that make potions; why would they add chemist as well? they are based on using consumables, and...they removed consumable ammo, and potions have long CDs.
guns are not used to heal, they are used to kill. Guns is DD wep, not a healing tool.
Gun for healing class, doesn't make any sense; would they do something stupid like add MND to guns? If they don't, it will be shitty healer, if they do, it will be shitty damage; What's the point of using a gun, that does low damage? Guns as potion dispensers?
Would be awkward if PLD blocked your potion, or it can't pierce dat armor...or do they need to catch that potion, in flight, and swallow it?
if they don't use the gun for healing, then the gun doesn't serve any purpose either, except tickling mobs, at range, with your gimp damage.

Stop using other games, as reference; this isn't other games. FFT doesn't have *roles* the mechanics of XIV, is totally different. What works in other games, may not work here.

Only reason i could see them adding heal-gunner, is cause it's very different from traditional magic healers, which is fine...as long as it doesn't trample all over the lore.
And on that note, Grid and Limsa already have healers, so next healer, should be from Ul'dah? which excludes gunner/musketeer. Then again, we don't really know where DRK comes from...probably not Grid...
Well anyway...if they can add chemist, in a way that makes sense, then it's all good...otherwise RIOT.

Edit:

This game direly needs a pure DD ranged job...I hope they put that in someday.

Unique jobs are cool though, like the DRK tank, and possible healer gunner...don't get me wrong. But I still want to see a powerful ranged DD someday

BRD already is DD. they even nerfed it, cause it was so OP. If they added another ranged DD, it wouldn't be stronger than BRD...or they will nerf it, like they did with BRD.

lol are people still spouting this BS?
For future reference, BRD was not nerfed. Cross Class was nerfed, and this affected ACN, MNK and DRG.
The CC nerf was all of about 2% DPS loss for BRD.
