I was wondering, which Pm should i pick as a forteTecher? Any good particular model?

Is it better to get an autonomous Pm, so it wont just follow the owner and do nothing?

And which Pm would be nice for a forteFighter, FightGunner or forteGunner for example?

I'm leveling PMs for my alts and soon some of them will be lvl 80, so i'd love to know which device should i get.

Thanks in advance http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Well, in my experience ... If you want an added weapon on the field, Autonomus combat PMs are good for that, since they seem to have a higher aggro range.

Fighters work well with a techer PM (as the techer PMs can help cause SEs and some seem to be quite generous about healing with Resta) while techers do well with the opposite (A little loli tank!) ...

As far as gunners go, I personally love the GH440. She tends to stick close, which is good when she decides to resta--and she uses a shotgun on top of her dual handguns, which gives me some cover fire.

For my fT I ended up getting a 480. He likes to run off on his own and his SUV can absolutely obliterate a mob (it can come pretty close to taking down a Svaltus). For my Fighgunner I got a 454 for the healing and debuffs. Plus there are tons of lightning enemies everywhere so its ground techs are actually pretty helpful. For my Fortegunner I got a 434 but thats really just for the convenience of being able to synth all that chars weapons without having to worry about transferring them from other characters.

I use a 422, and she is probably the most aggressive and resilient PM i've used yet. I used to have a 414, which I changed to a 413 due to her knocking everything away with Tornado Dance. 413 was also quite aggressive and tanky, what with her dagger and resta spam. I changed to 480, the butler PM, but was unimpressed since yes, he IS strong and yes, his SUV is powerful, but it basically requires you to babysit him and keep him alive, since he rarely resta'd himself. So, I decided to try out the 420 series and found I am loving my 422, the little knuckles girl. She keeps things on their backs when she uses bogga zubba, and restas just as often as my old 413, keeping her alive quite well. She also comes with the SUV that shoots missiles, meaning you don't have to worry about her missing with her SUV (414 has the gatling or laser, i forget, but she missed nearly every time) as long as you have enemies.

Same. Tylor still beats the crap out of pretty much every PM/NPC that I can think of though.

I use a 422 on my fortetecher. 454 or 450 on my fortefighter. 433 or 440 on my fortegunner.

I prefer the 422 to the 424 because she's more agressive and attacks more often. The 424 hits harder, but hits less often. Also the 422 will actually heal herself. It's pretty sad when Tylor pulls out the Giresta before your 424.

I also like:
Bruce - big heals, but not completely consistent. Decent damage. Plus seeing him throw out foie every once in a while is always pretty funny.

Lou - they changed her armor from what I believe was Sori-senba to what I believe is De Colte Line since she's lost her SUV, takes more damage overall, and her Sniper does more damage than it used to, but have made up for it by making her heal twice as often as she use to (she heals as much as the 433) and she casts reverser frequently as well.

Maya - Much better now... when she survives long enough to start healing. Her Giresta is nice, but that's about it. Lou heals more frequently. Hyuga does reverser quicker. Plus as a techer I'd rather have someone who can take a hit. Maya tends to fold if something looks at her funny, so Bruce gets the call more often.

Tonnio - Good tank with power beast.

Tylor - good tank with more power, by sometimes he just stands around and shuffle steps around an enemy without attacking. Tonnio doesn't have that problem. He's pretty much always on the attack. Plus power beast is a bit better at clearing rooms than invincibility.

You can never go wrong with the 432, in my opinion. Useful skills, heals the most out of all NPCs I have seen (she's really freakin' panicky, I swear...), and has a useful SUV (Strum Buster). Overall, decent damage, great healing, makes wonderful Bait (her namesake lol).

I recently switched to a 452 while leveling Acrofighter, after researching peoples opinions on the various PM's. She resta's very frequently, even when well over half full on health she still heals to keep me capped.

She buffs (shifta, zodial) off and on also, and is good with her techs (zonde, razonde, gizonde) when enemies close in.

Aren`t they all simple meat shields...? Come on, just let them die instead of us.
(I took my lovely, lovely boy pm, because I reeeeeeaaaaally like him! My Pet.e <3 >_>
So, I really do not htink about that. It has to look that way, that you liek it, though. Just my oppinion, though. <_< )

Wow, thanks a lot for advices http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

No one mentioned 44x series, except for the 440, which i just don't want to get because of her hat >.<
Anyone tried 444, for example?
PSUpedia says its good at support, will it resta often? I was thinking to get it for my beast(not sure about class yet, but she'll melee)

Also, how about 420, with nice kitty ears, is she good with her claws? Or 423 with spear?

I was wondering about Pm's Combat quotes. I am having simple 450 on my fT atm and she is very cruel. There is no info about her sayings on psupedia, but she has the same as 452 http://psupedia.info/GH_452#Combat_Quotes

I heared 432 being very nice. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif
http://psupedia.info/GH_432#Combat_Quotes
Is 433 saying same things?
Desturel, you said you tried it, right?

Looks like 422 is rather cruel, too.
http://psupedia.info/GH_422#Combat_Quotes
What about other 42x?

I really would love hearing nice or neutral stuff from my Pm's. Or at least have all 4 each with different sayings. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Don't use GH444. You'll see her playing grenade balls into the air. (while all enemies are so close to her.)

On my Fighgunner I use 451. She resta's often and helps me with crowd control. I'm not to happy with my Guntecher's PM though. She's the 434 and I'm thinking of switching her to something else. I'll try the 432 one. >.o

Any 4X2 series has ,what I call,"the ability to sustane their on HP." Which in turn means that they heal before they die, thus healing you.

I'm using Bruce and 412. I love the 412 cause she spams the hell out of rising strike and spinning break. But as a ForteGunner I love her the most because she always intercepts targets advancing towards me. (and so does bruce)

*************************

And yes the 432 is very good also. She does debuffs with her crossbow, (atk down) which also does about ~450 damage per bullet x3 so thats 1350 shotgun effect on creatures (very nice). But the only thing about her is if you're the type of ranger to use NON-shotgun (in yourface tactics) then I wouldn't recommend her. She does "cover fire" which basically means she only fires once emenies are in the process of attacking you. ( a bit too late IMO for a ranger) Although like I said, If all you use is the shotgun then and High DEF mixed with her jellen shots will do you nicely.
