So I'm in the Eternal Tower...

And I find this pretty decent Kerykeion. (lvl 3 light, Pretty decent %'s and beat quake.) And I decide that I'm gonna have a bit of fun, ( I'm using my HUnewm and a little mind mag I've been raising) So i grind it up, slap on my mind mag and a pp recovery, and I go to town with my lvl 10 Foie. I'm actually doing fairly decent damage against nearly everything, I'm only doing on average maybe 50-60 less damage than I would with my hadan bite and I'm using pretty well the same amount of pp. This may make me roll another HUnewm to just use FO weps. It's really fun! Although I could just roll a FOnewm... but hey, quirky, weird builds are more fun than standard ones!

Well then, glad to see someone else actually TRY and use the HUnewm/newearl techs. Just be careful in Arca and Dark shrine; most enemies either have different resists or are resistant to everything except Grants/Megid :/

I like your style

I actually ran a FO HUmar build for a while... >_>

It was kinda inspired by how irritating it is to use melee on those rare spiky rolly monsters :/

[Rayvinh]

HUnewms/newearls are really very balanced if used as techers, mostly because they aren't as squishy as actual forces and they have the highest MST of any non-force class. And they're just plain fun to use!

Yeah, Barta makes them fall a lot faster.

Btw, I found that newmans' natural pp regen actually stacks with pp recovery units. Fun fact to know if you didn't already!

Not to mention HUney is ey--*is shot*

Though, you should still pack a melee and ranged wep JUST in-case; even though Rhojades are vulnerable to barta, spamming it costs too much PP, so using Thriller Combo or Flame Hit is still the best choice. Then again, spamming techs on a HUnewm/newearl just makes you look SO pro...Especially when the Force next to you is using the wrong tech. On a side note, last I checked, one can reach around 1,1-1,2K in MST with the newman hunters.

Oh yes

I was just so pissed at the time - floor 99 of ETSH and I had died several times. I was a low level at the time, hitting roughly 20's. I think I used Emporer Axeon for that room to inflict heat, then used a star slicer that I had found on one of the floors below :/

Oh yes! Try HP recov 5 on a HP build HUcast! It's insanely awesome... Maybe I'll record it.

Yep, ranged weapons also works on the rolling Dodongos. Also, when I used my old RAmarl on Freeplay for a time, I'll have times where I'm outdamaging the hunters in places like the wetlands and the ruins...and then they pull out the guns and start outdamaging me by 10 to 20 hit points.

Which is why I always pack my CelebTachyon gun. Lvl 5 of course. lol
