The Gunbreaker comes to Final Fantasy XIV
This is the new class: Naoki Yoshida introduced the new job “Gunbreakers.” The new job came along with a fresh badass trailer:
In German, the class will be called “Revolver-Klinge,” which can be seen from the German Twitter account of Final Fantasy XIV.
The job “Gunblade” is known from previous Final Fantasy games. The special gimmick of the class is its weapon: The revolver blade carries a sword that can also be used as a revolver.
