On most guns the thing we have just looks wrong and I'm sure most people opt to turn it off with /gaussbarrel anyway. My friend the other day said to me "why does every gun you use look so stupid?" I didn't understand what they meant, then I remembered, /gaussbarrel doesn't turn it off for others so she could still see it.

    I'd prefer to just have a casting animation like BRD's minuet. And for us to just get an aiming animation like they have rather than stupid gun dance. Just change the name from gauss barrel to scope or something.

    Every single BRD bow get a unique Quiver. I dont see why MCH's cant get the same treatment for their accesories. Same for the lunchbox, i'd like more varied versions of that please.

    Now we got a handgun I'd like to see some handcannons, such as a massve Desert Eagle. We got a Revolver or two of absurd size, so why not?

    Oh, and also an option to hide the aether thingumajig on our side.

    FFXI's Corsair (a ranged DPS job that had a 'Dice' ability similar to AST's cards) had a hand cannon as their Mythic weapon "Death Penalty".

    No thank you, no *more* handguns than we already have with the gun toting Machinist job. If I wanted to play a crappy first or thir person shooter I have plenty of options. Personally I really dislike guns in general, and in the case of FFXIV, I think that handguns are not something that needs to be come more common than they are already with Machinists.

    How about a job that uses crossbows instead of a handgun? At least keep things with the fantasy feel I mean, who wants some mob gliding past on their bomb palanquins carrying out a drive by shooting in Eorzea, do we not already have sufficient problems as it is?

    Not to argue against your point, but there ARE fantasy games/movies that have guns. I don't believe it's reasonable to think Earth (or "reality") is the only place guns can be made and/or exist. Other than that, I agree. Not a fan of the mch class whatsoever.

    I expect that they will introduce one more 'gun' using job when gunblades become a thing, but I really don't like the idea that FFXIV could become more gun based.

    I also corrected the really mangled spelling in my post that you quoted.

    Out of curiosity, did anyone ever mention a new job, ever? OP is asking for more handgun designs for machinist, so whining about a theoretical other gun job doesn't do much of pertinence.

    Meh, I doubt we'll ever see gunblades as a weapon we use. We'll get some replicas for glamour, but nothing actually functioning as such.

    Always had the framework for a gun-toter already with the musketeers, but that's something still left to the void as well.

    Revolver or the Wanderer is basically an enormous Desert Eagle with a revolver cylinder (because everything in Eorzea is top-loaded apparently)

    Think the game could use some slick assault-rifle designs tho. + lunchbox/gauss barrel alternates of course.
