    One thing I dont have experiance with is how much bows attract the enemys attention (aggro). By far, the rifle gets stuff to attack me faster then any other gun I have. Whats the comparison between rifles and bows?

    Really (and maybe this is just because I tend to only use my bow against big enemies) it doesn't draw as much aggro.

    The slightly slower shots seem to give more time for the aggro to go back on to the hunter-types.

    I don't see anything but a cast Fortetecher being able to equip an S-rank Bow ._.' Well, GTs don't get S-rank Rifles either, soooo.

    I plan on levelling both rifle and bow bullets. Fire/Dark for Rifle for quick application of the SE4s that matter, and Ice/Thunder/Light/Earth for Bow for elemental damage purposes.

    Rifle is so slow though... It's like levelling Barta except you're forced to hit only single targets (albeit it's a lot faster "cast"..._) 79360 hits to get from lv1 to lv30, Mein Gott, bow is only 19248.

    I just started a Guntecher after playing as a PT for quite a bit and I chose Rifles over Longbows just for a bit of variation. Longbows really does seem superior in every way which is sort of, sad.. That a Force weapon is a better ranged weapon than the Rangers signature weapon.

    I will take my +10 Alteric and all my lvl 4 arrows any day over a riffle. But thats just me.

    Well, rifles have a higher PP regeneration rate, so take that into account, too. Not that I use rifles, but both have advantages and disadvantages.

    Rifles fire off more quickly so you'd likely burn through PP faster, thus they probably gave rifles the better PP regen to make up for that.

    In over 500 hours of online play, I've never once seen someone with a bow out damage me using a rifle.
