Guess that Gunblade Job function.

[Imoen]

So if a Gunblade Job is introduced into FF14 how do you think it will function as a Tank or DPS?

Related to the topic I don't think there is much use speculating, with that said, if I had to guess.. dps.

I think a gunblade job...

There is one single sword wielding class. People are pissed about it? (2 if you are thinking to the future and not current state)

The scripting/code for checking distance from the monsters location for melee and ranged auto-attacks are already in the game. (Bard & everything else) I don't think it would be out of the realm of possibility to blend the two relatively easily... distance check branch > run specific animation based on bool result > run same modifiers for damage etc... (or whatever order they have it set up in) My point is the game is already making distance checks all the time. Unless they are using volume detection for it or something /ponders regardless, it is already in place and they have templates now to work off of... anyway I digress, carry on.
