    So... do people keep forgetting about that one artwork image that was leaked recently featuring all the current (including ninja) jobs as well as 2 in the middle? And that the two in the middle are wielding a Rapier and a Greatsword (Dark Knight)?

    It would be foolish to ignore that rapier...

    The connection between the rapier and musketeer comes from a general misconception that was not helped by Alexander Dumas' book. Musketeers were the predecessor to the modern rifleman. Yes, they had a sidearm in the way of a sword, knife, or axe before bayonettes were developed and became standard attachments for rifles.

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.
    * Design ideas:
