Gunslinger as Magus Archetype?


Gunslinger Discussion: Round 1


Here is a thought I've head about building Gunslinger as Magus Archetype.

Similarities:
- both classes have a decent base class ability to complement medium melee abilities (actually, guns are worse, much worse than Magus spells, and Magus are clearly superior in terms of melee efficiency)
- both classes use power pool to power their class abilities

Magus came off as a decent class - bringing Gunslinger to Magus power level should be good enough to save the Gunslinger from oblivion.

Vague proposals:
- allow Gunslinger to complete gunslinging with melee
- allow Gunslinger to wear armors
- allow Gunslinger to use both guns and melee weapons at the same time

Regards,
Ruemere


The first problem that would leap to my mind is that the Magus isn't officially out yet. That and the aforementioned issues.
