MCH turned Guren Laggan -.-

[LordMetal7]

I do understand MCH needed machines but really you adding drill robot like Guren Laggan....

I sadly don't like it MCH should have something like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkGSg9O-stc and then combine it with more turret types and then a robot but not drill arms or something that kinda sucks.....

In the end i did not get what i wanted so i'm now playing Guren Laggan with MCH well done -.-

If anything most of the changes pay homage to what we might call the original Machinist; Edgar from FF6. It's really great to see all the different Tools come to life like the Bio Blaster and Drill weapons, and the mecha robot is just a nice bonus to throw in there. MCH is finally what it should be rather than a mediocre ranged DPS with a gun we've had so far.

problem is when we gonna get a true gunner class? don't get me wrong i know future expansions coming but its still for me not fair.

Limited Job Corsair, look forward to it!

That can be said for every job. When will we get a 2 hand sword class? When will we get a Ranger type bow use? When will we get a "insert weapon here" class?

I think the direction SE is taking MCH is great and majority of players can accept it.

Doubt they will ever release what you want tbh.

also that last hit is bunker buster, its not even a drill to begin with. maybe there will be on other skill but as of now, thats not a drill.

Part of the animation before the bunker buster looked like Faust's drill lance.

When will we get a 2 hand sword class?

Dark Knight and Samurai?

I feel you on that. I tire greatly on this obsession with people wanting random insert weapon become a class. Long sword, 2 handed swords, 2 daggers, 2 swords, etc. I wish people would focus more on the overall class and abilities of something rather than just the boring weapons it holds. Literally no class in this game currently has an INTERESTING weapon. The weapon is just there as a way to further skills.

I cry a bit when people want a class based around a weapon that is super similar to everything else.

Sadly there is no room in XIVs design for a "true" gunner class, the exact same applied to a "true" archer class. Yoshida deemed those classes as options that don't bring enough to the table to be standalone Jobs, so they were merged with other concepts to give us Machinist and Bard.

If XIV had a bit more variety in its combat, I could see a trapper angle for either Ranger or Gunner working nicely, and for that matter an actual stealth angle for Thief rather than having it bleed into Ninja, but with the content we have being so rigid, and the strict adherence to the holy trinity of roles, can't really fit those kinds of Jobs into the game, sadly.

This, Machinist is going to feel like an actual master of machinery rather than a gunslinger with some cool animations and a turret, basing it off Edgar and adding in Bio Blaster, Drills and Auto Crossbows was just a plain awesome idea, all we need really is the Chainsaw down the line and we are all good to go!

Honestly, the entire part with MCH blew me away, I absolutely adored MCH back in HW but was extremely put off by the way they changed it for SB, but this has certainly caught my eye and I can't wait to play it, don't let me down Yoshi, my expectations are pretty high for this one.

You might be the only person I have ever seen that is displeased about being able to summon a Mech with drills for hands. This looked good enough to make me wanna test out Mechanist some more.
