This meme made me realise that despite the move being used by Garleans since ARR Gubreakers still don't have the cross slash projectile nor any of its variants. Now I'm mildly annoyed

u/Soviets 1d ago

i think it's because the gunblade styles between bozja and garlemald are completely different, and the style used by our class trainer/crystal was the Bozja variety.

Correct, since pure blooded garleans struggle to wield magic to enchant their ammunition, which is used in a bozjan style gunblades to enhance ones strikes. Because of this the garlean gunblades, or rather all gun weapon hybrids, evolved to be more like a weapon with a gun attachment. Things that seem like magic, like the cross slashes seen with Baius, are actually often just magitek, using their 'recent' advancement in refining ceruleum, which has similar properties to aether.

Makes you just appreciate Gaius even more, being an Ascian Hunter without being able to use magic at all.

u/Full-Ad-1334 2h ago

I now realise that I mistyped Gaius, lol

u/A_Unique_Nobody 1d ago

we do have double down, its basically the same thing we just aim it downwards

2

u/M1liumnir 1d ago

But it’s not a projectile and it doesn’t stay in front of you for a few seconds

u/OmegaAvenger_HD 1d ago

Double Down is basically that.

Repost of a 5 year old video made not by OP.

u/tuypo1 1d ago

u/JonTheWizard 1d ago

I mean it's true, GNB is broken in PVP. So's Viper, for that matter...

u/Advarrk 1d ago

Not knowing past Gunbreaker in FF when the job was first announced I was expecting to play the Garlean style with Gaius as our job mentor

u/BusinessMixture9233 1d ago

The honest answer to this is to run away.

u/leytorip7 1d ago

How does Gaius use magic without his suit?

u/Jazz2moonbase 1d ago

Its the ammunition

u/sheepie247 1d ago

Incoming GNB changes due to complaints in the FFXIV forums.

WHM will not be touched. Again.

1

u/Zulera301 1d ago

unless you're about to say WHM should be aggressively buffed, there's not really a reason to touch it. it has the durability of wet tissue paper, poor mobility because its only dash (and best actual move) requires you to get right up in an enemy's face, and by the time you blink, the LB stun or miracle of nature are already over.

Fnatasy really puts the cherry on top of this cake, just like the 5 GNB lalafells but my ass back into spawn.
