Male human is basically the same as male cast, except male human doesn't have negative magic stats
And female cast is best ranged stats

Hm that's a weird way to make different genders with different stats.

This....... in PSO2 the stat differences do not matter as much.

Yeah, CASTs are better in s-atk while Caseal are better in r-atk, but honestly? The difference isn't by much. If I remember correctly, male CAST is at 105% in terms of s-atk whereas female CAST is at 104%

To be honest I think Cast's got short changed. In PSO & PSZ they had trap vision a useful ability PSO2 so "kindly" removed.

That and I joked around once on a desert run with a Cast I know saying "Don't you speak MECH?" It got me thinking they should have a hot bar hacking ability to confuse Mech enemies.

Aren't casts better at Ability related stuffs, too ? With Ceaseals being best IIRC.

Abilty is computed in just about any hunter and ranger PA so...

But well, overall the differences are minimal. I don't really see any points that could justify choosing a cast, except, wierdly enough, aesthetics. That's really all it boils down to.

CASTs are best at everything not Tech related.

Well, Caseals are dead sexy, and Casts can look like Orbital Frames. The choice is clear, you can have your lolinewearls and your noobmans.

So whats the deal of making human hunters and rangers? They cant use techs anyway.

Going by that logic why use humans at all since casts are better Hunters/Rangers and Newmans are better Forces.

Oh right because they wanted to make a human and the stat difference right now is negligible

JamesM

No, because Forces can both use techs AND attack.

Given the past games, there might be some specific race bonuses to certain abilities in the game we may not know about. Like in one system (PSZ) where FOmars/FOmarls/FONewm/FONewearls actually did have certain groupings of techs each excelled at.

yeah at this point the races are different only visually. To compensate though the difference between the classes is greater. It would have been nice if they had kept Casts able to see traps and not use magic as it made the world feel a bit more real. A bit more alive.

This game needs Beasts, Motavians or any other type of huge, mean, fluffy humanoid creature to kick those walking fridges out of the melee department.

Not everyone wants to look like Michael Bay's Optimus Prime just for 10 extra attack points.

But yeah okay.

I WANTED to make a cast but that "wedding suit" came out too late. and I'm lvl 40 now, so fuggit.
