    Honestly a gunblade should be almost all melee. if we go off 8. As the gun blade wasn't really a gun. It was just a sword that during an attack when fired would do an extra cuncusive pulse. This pulse would do more damage, and make pulling the blade free of things easier. Basicly it's a sword with alittle more kick. Those who play monster hunter might think of it as some of the weapons that like explode on contact or something like that.

    Now in 13 its a transforming weapon that transforms into either a gun or a blade, but never does both.

    In our current game its used more silimarlly to 8. So it should really just be a different kind of melee weapon.

    I think it would make alot of sense as a weapon for blue mage. Who are mages who field thier foes attacks. Using a weapon as thier offensive tool when not throwing out the quick and easy to utilize natural magic from enemies. Makes even more sense i'd say if blue was a tank using damage taken or dealt to charge up thier blue magic (sort of the reverse of redmages). The gunblade would be the blue mages tool for building up natural energy.

    Guess the way isee it. You'd have like an ammo slot that you'd need to use a GCD to reload for your gunblade. That lets you use gunblade builder attacks. It'd be like an aether gunblade that blast aether free from enemies to charge your blue magic. Then you'd have a bar that would fill with the extracted aether. If they go the tank route this pool could also be filled by taking damage in some way, maybe expending a round of your gunblade to project some aether absorbing barrier. that absorbs some x% of damage, and also charges your aether flow some amount with each hit taken.
