We've seen them play with a combination melee and ranged caster using RDM, so you might see something similar coming out for a ranged dps using pistol and blade (there are only 2 ranged dps, but it means the Pirate would have BRD and MCH role abilities; so a lot more CC and support functionality than damage).

Otherwise, I'm flummoxed by the lore of how you distinguish the pirate PC job from every other pirate in Limsa Lominsa. Obviously the Warriors of Light are special by default, but is that really it?
Well i think unlike the redmage he should rather focus more on his latent melee ability but still can deal dmg in phases where you cannot reach the boss not as much as in melee though ^^

Well a kind of scenario i had in mind is that like every port limsa lominsa has a lot of ships coming in and going out so i thought it could be pirates from unkown lands maybe some country the garlean empire had under siege or sth like that ^^
