Possible Gunblade Job teacher?

[Iscah]

My thinking is that it will be a brand new character as well. I can't think of a single new job taught by existing NPCs. The reason for this is that it limits them in terms of MSQ. Yugiri was made out to be the NIN trainer, but she had nothing to do with that questline, same with gosetsu and SAM, and Alisae with RDM.

I can't judge for Yugiri, since I'd already picked up ninja class by the time I'd progressed to post-ARR for her introduction (and I think I also picked up RDM early), but I definitely never got any impression that Gosetsu was supposed to be the samurai trainer just because he was the first samurai we met. Maybe when you're left to debate everything patch by patch, people started having the equivalent of this conversation and picking out the one existing [job] NPC as an obvious teacher for this new job that they're showing off.

So I agree that it's unlikely an existing MSQ character will be our teacher, but not that the previous new-job NPCs were ever 'made out' to be future teachers. Maybe Yugiri, but not the others.

During 2.2 MSQ Yugiri goes to The rogue's guild to train them in the art of the shinobi as a repayment to the admiral for aiding the doman refugees Ninja was not releases till 2.4 this was plenty of time for people to think she could be our teacher however once it was revealed that you could do 2.0 story as ninja she couldn't be our teacher as be very disjointed for the player come 2.2 and Yugiri re-arrives in Eorzea this also makes Yugiri's gift in 2.2 a bit weaker and i attribute this to early writing trying to find its way than any rewriting due to the fact it be possible not all the guild could learn shinobi techniques
