Ranger fun stuff

Concentrate One is still slower DPS than Divine.

not to mention some hits missing head shots.

Concentrate One is great for its PP efficiency, rather than its speed. It hits slightly harder than Divine Launcher if you can land all the hits right which I guess is kind of a plus, but more notably it can spread its damage between different enemies either in one direction (similar use to Cluster Bullet) or in different directions (spread out code/PSE burst enemies?).

It's nice to have Divine Launcher feel strong again, but it's even more nice to have it feel strong without it being the only damn PA to use.

I might whine about it being dumb that launchers get headshot damage, but I'm pretty happy to see the PAs are balanced between eachother much better this time around.

I'm hitting 16k's with Launcher without using PAs.

This is hilarious.

Ranger sub on what? Since arao in terms of close range is still good with difisse at 20 pp heck you can even see it as gettinf a dmg boost both close and long range. Im used to JA rifles and i prefer them over arao but have it pure for diffuse

Bad spelling, typing from phone

Meant more like my RA/GU/HU is an alt character whereas my BR/FI/HU is my main character. So I don't want to spend that much on her. I was thinking of sticking with JA Rifles (though I think Fury Stance is a bit stronger [1.2875 vs 1.26 I believe]) since I do like to use things other than Diffuse Shell and Impact Slider.

But if Divine launcher misses the headshot then you lose half the entire PA.

With Concentrate One you have three separate chances at a headshot to average out missed shots.

Against a single target with an easy weak point, either is fine.
Against a large clump of enemies all in one spot, Divine is faster.
Against several spread out enemies, Concentrate can hit them all in one PA.

With Divine Launcher, Cluster Bullet, Rodeo Drive, and Crazy Smash I really can't bother with putting Concentrate One into my PA slots.

Divine and Cluster together cover multiple situations better than Concentrate.
