New Job: Viper

[Ilyn]

I'm so glad it isn't corsair . It's kinda what I hoped for in that it's a duel wielding weapon specialist with fast gcds and lots of ogcds from what it sounds like. I love NInja but have been maining it since StB and it'll be nice to have it something else to play especially since nin is always busted at the beginning of each expansion and it'll go well with alot of my scouting glams . Now I get my choice of melee/combo caster or just pure weaponary YaY!! Now I just wonder if it'll be pure dps or will it have some sort of utility to keep sam/blm at the top of dps hmmm

if gun breaker was called gun then maybe
but its gnb so viper will probably be vpr.

probably but they could make an exception for the meme.

This forum sometimes is so weird

VIP, please let it be VIP

Well BLU exists, what other class breaks the mold.
WAR.

I'm not looking too deep into it.

But I also would love VIP.
VPR is just too close to RPR.

Way too similar at a glance.

I think it can be whatever the community wants it to be. The devs could use VRP, but if the community uses VIP more, than it's VIP.

TBF, BLU couldn't be much else, because the other main competitor for the acronym would be BLM and that's already taken. WRR would be funny to see though

Not sure if I'm reading it right, if for VIP or against.
Text isn't always best at expressing the feeling or intent.
Almost read it as stating an obvious detail about subjective wants as if it Affected anything that the Development team wants. when all I really did was give more credence to the precedent of older jobs having names/job lettering being the first three letters than spaced out letters.

Yeah, same. Thought as soon as I sent my previous comment how funny WRR would be for WAR.
Yet it was so obvious in the eng language what it would be.

Brings to mind how are they named in other regions or languages. is Whitemage(WHM) WMG(weissmagier).

and true on the blue mage thing. but idk, blue was always special in just being out there. with its Blue.

Though I guess out there classes like WAR are the same.

I'm excited! Glad it's not a gun tbh. I hope the job plays more like RPR than the other melees. NIN and MNK in particular are complete garbage. My MSQ job will probably be RPR, VIP or the new caster, depending on their playstyles.

I don't know until i see it's rotation.

I like duel wielding but meh, i wanted to be a ye old pirate.
