Started leveling up RA after I capped GU last week (nothing else to do; already capped BR, FI, HU, GU). And also, tbh, I would like to add that I am by no means an experienced RA player.
My RA is Lv. 52 atm with HU Lv. 65 subbed, I am using half-assed affixed Calburn Units (all with only Mizer + Shoot III affixes), a 10* Latria Rain (Mizer + Shoot III), and a PURE R-ATK mag. Therefore I understand, that I'm not exactly super-geared up and therefore my DPS may be a quite low. I do have the cookie-cutter builds, however, meaning that only the left sides of the RA and HU trees are filled.
After playing on SH for a while, I'm a little disheartened that I have found RA/HU to be stark-ingly weak, inefficient, or slow compared to the other classes. I confess that I do not have Lv. 16 Impact Slider nor Lv. 16 Parallel Slider atm, and perhaps this is the primary reason why.
Quite honestly, I feel that Launchers are "worthless" (too goddamn slow) and that to be an efficient RA, one should probably only utilize a Good AR (probably Arao Cylinder for Zero Effort) with some good Lv. 16 PA disks, and a good Gunslash with Lv. 16 Additional Bullet/Thrillplosion for mobbing.
Is my assessment somewhat on the mark? Or is it not... in order to be a somewhat efficient RA?
I want to be useful, not just because of WB, but because I can actually take out some enemies as well. Furthermore, I have found soloing with RA/HU to be a pain... without a Gunslash for mobbing.
