Scythes, Whips, Scimitar (BLU), hand axes

[Wintersandman]

Scythe, whip, dual axes, maul, crossbow

[Tanama]

• Hammer or Mace
• Whip
• Crossbow
• Rifle (As opposed to MCH's long pistol)

Personally I would like to see a gypsy (since dancer fits healers more) magic support caster cls playing flutes and singing songs. While focused on buffs/debuffs they must not get res/heal to avoid rdm/smn comparisons. Instead combo cls skills would be an interesting design-mechanic for ff14 at all - f.e combo skills with brd songs or (if we ever get them) dancer performances <3

Ragnarok Online did that very well back in the days with Bard & Dancer Cls and their combo-songs, they were an important part of endcontent like War of Emperium (Mass PvP) or MVP Hunting (Boss Fates/Primals) - this could work perfectly in savage as well I think : o


else 150% for this:

Dual hand guns so players can go guns blazing.

Dual handguns won't happen, we have MCH.

A word of caution when saying these type of things. After all, people said these same words before Rogue/Ninja was confirmed to be a separate job because "dagger" was a "Gladiator/Paladin" weapon back then.

Sword and Gun, sounds very Bloodborn, I like it

Sword/Gun combo has not always been Bloodborn related but it was a common weapon of choice for characters based on being Demon Hunters in certain games, Pirates, and/or Modern Assassins.

Whatever it is......No More Swords pls

I'd really like to see more Blunt weapons though, like Hammers or a Quarterstaff.

Another idea that I've always liked is a class that can summon a variety of weapons (think Elder Scrolls weapon summon spells); though I've no idea how that would fit into FFXIV.

Failing all that, Catmancer; can't possibly go wrong with Catmancer.

Spiritwalker / Shaman : Ritual Knife, Hammer, Beads (?)

Salvemaker : Toolbelt

Magiteck tank (Reaper?) : Gunblade

Ranger / Beasttamer : Whip, Crossbow

There are dozens of bladed weapons, but a hand gun is a hand gun.

I can imagine a "gun" being incorporated in other weapons, the obvious option being a gunblade, even though mch already has a gun that for appearance has a blade on it.
But not just more handguns, and certainly not as another ranged physical DPS.
