A few basic questions.

[Shishkabob]

Well, I don't aim to get PSP2 until it hits the US, so I have a few bare basic questions about the game.

1.) What are the weapons that each class are best with? Like, I assume, a Braver is probably great with a Saber and it'll cost less points to have that reach S rank than an axe.

2.) How many ability points do you end up with at max level with each class? And I assume you can only switch abilities at the counter you switch weapon ranks with?

3.) Exactly what do the light and dark mirage blasts do? I've heard multiple different things..

1.) In psp 2 there's 3 tiers that determine the cost of upgrading the rank of weapons that can be used, they can be a specialist at it (costing less), good/familiar at it (costing normal), and doesn't use/terrible (expensive).

Bravers are specialist with single handed weapons, except good at twin dagger, twin saber, twin claw, twin handgun.
Hunters are specialist at all striking weapons except good at whips and slicers.
Rangers are specialist at all range weapons except good at card and longbow.
Forces are specialist of all tech weapons, saber, handgun, whip, longbow, twin dagger, dagger.

Rods are expensive for non-forces. Rifles are expensive for non-rangers. Swords and knuckles are expensive for non-hunters.

All classes are specialist of sabers.

2.) The maximum ability points is 8 for all classes at job lvl 20

3.) No idea.

I forget what Light does, but I believe Dark raises the rate your super gauge charges, along with your teammates'.

3. Dark is human-only and speeds up natural melee attack speed. Light is Newman-only and what it does depends on where you look it up (i.e., no one's really quite sure). The consensus is that it speeds up the blast gauge, but I haven't been around Newmans using it enough to confirm it for myself.
