+20 STA.

Combos with Rifle and is demonstrably stronger than an S-rank rifle.

Other than complete immunity to Status Effects? Well, it doesn't have much to offer. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

If you're looking for a non S rank solution to a strong rifle, you're still better off with the Phantom Line + Phantom combo imo. In terms of atp, the Phantom rifle still outshines it.

C-grinders are cheaper than A ones though. also snipers are cheap to batch grind.

Yeah but a 10/10 sniper is easier to get then a 10/10 phantom, and actually with the boost you'll nearly out damage a Phantom combo

De Colte Line / Sniper combo

Att 275
Acc 80
Eva 50

Sniper itself

Base ATP 10/10
126 416

PP 842 1142

So if paired you're looking at 691 Att not too damn shabby I say

Phantom

Base ATP 10/10
541 641 not a big jump there, hmmm

PP
1263 1652 now that's where this shines

Paired with armor you're looking at 766.

It's a great alternative to using a Phantom and much cheaper, but it's all in your preference honestly.

Heck owning any boss with C ranks on a S2 is pretty nice

I'd use it just for the megid immunity at HIVES. >_>

I tried that and although nice, I took way too much damage from hits since the armor is neutral. I still have my De Colte Line but I find myself just slapping on my dark armor and taking a gamble with the megid deaths. If you could make it any element, I'd be completely sold on it. But then people might complain it's too overpowered. <.>

You only need it for deljaban. Nothing else comes in packs of up to 5 enemies that hover in and out of Megid-activation range like Deljaban do.

Well, the pp is raised with the combo, but is it also filled up? Or do you have to charge it?
I didn`t try it out, but I somehow doubt it is filled automatically.

actually, the raised PP is from grinding, not the set. also, it costs a mere 35 meseta to recharge a single 0/10 sniper while it costs 317 meseta to recharge a 0/10 phantom

Yeah, cause a Sniper has less PP? >.>
And when it`s grinded, it`s recharging price will
raise too, or not?

it will, but not by the leaps and bounds you are eluding to.

Higher-rank items cost more to recharge than lower rank ones simply by default.

It's why some people like pumpkinheads as buff sticks.
