It's just an oversized sword. That's what I am getting at.

I wonder how heavy it'd be if it was made from aluminum?

And I remember tapping X when I attacked with Squall and it would shoot the gun. I am pretty sure that's how it was phrased too.

I do indeed remember reading somewhere in FF8, either the manual or the game, that Gunblades work by changing the way the blade works in some way, and not by firing bullets at enemies like you would think.

Someone start up the game and look around the Garden tutorials, it's probably in there somewhere.

Much less dual wield two while flying around with Kingdom Hearts-like gravity defying mid-air jumps and blocking bullets. Yeeah.

That sword should snap right off the handle.

or Cloud's arm would snap trying to lift and swing it. that even happens to body builders trying to lift something many times their weight, and if their arm position is wrong and the weight is too great, snnnnap.

thats not all true, the gunblade in FFVIII had a barrel to it, there was half a barrel on each side of the blade

well I meant it doesn't shoot like shooting a projectile.

Do we need to pull up a dictionary? :p

The buster sword was just a huge great sword there's not much special about that. But a Gun Blade? You'd expect that to shoot.

do you know HOW big thast sword really is? i have a friend that has the replica of one... and iuts huge and heavy, no way someone like Cloud could handle it the way he does.

The same point as the Buster Sword.

It looks cool and sells games even if it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

What would the point of it be if it didn't shoot?

Gunblades don't shoot (if they did they would have a gun noozle like FFXIII's gunsword/swordgun, and Squall would
shoot like Irvine does with his guns.) They trigger an explosion on the blade to occur. Many theorize they are magic shells
because there is no way an explosion from inside the blade wouldn't break the blade itself, so the explosive fire would
have to be based on magic stored inside the ammo (Squall's gunblade case showed space for ammo.) and the blade is probably made out of a material that lets magic channel through it.

I think Magic Swords are more likely than gunblades, but what's a Gunblade without a Garden anyway? :p

I always thought that it shot when you did the attack like Takelli said. It sounds reasonable to me..

I played FFVIII. The gunblade was a sword with a gun mounted on.in it.

When you hit the right button at the right time, you would shoot your foe at the same time as you struk him for extra damage.



Seed was also an arganization (I forgot what they where trying to), but they lived in a floating city.

I played FFVIII multiple times, and I know what a gunblade is. Just like there is going to be one in FFXIII as well.

The cor and the sword was just a joke.

You don't know what a SeeD is or what abilities they have, and you certainly have no idea how an VIII's Gunblade works.

Sword Magic is all I ask for. I probably won't get it (again) but you never know with SE.

Just do that search I talked about. It should answer at least some of your questions.

Re: 4 new Fighter Jobs confirmed. FFXIV has at least 20 jobs?

If anything I'm just going to specify I'm talking about a Gunblade specialist type of SeeD.

So... A Corsair that attached their gun to a sword then, and doesnt use any job abilities? O.o;

Its a gunblad specilist, not seed if thats what you where trying to get at...
