Looks like K9999 just showed how little intelligence he/she has....

I agree 100% with OniTatsujin, players have no right to bark orders at FOs.

If you want your damn EXP, do what I do and use the right element, not just any spell.

And why anyone would just cast J/Z and then stand back is beyond me. I cast J/Z, let everyone get their hits in so that everyone gets EXP, and then I cast at will. Half the time I get the last kill, the other half the hunters or rangers do. I dont nuke cause I try to conserve TP, but theres nothing wrong with taking the kill for yourself as long as your still sharing EXP.

You guys do realize that with a good J/Z, you will be getting even MORE Exp than the HU's right? Think about it like this. Run into a room and cast those spells as soon as you're able to target. If something spawns in the middle of battle, J/Z it. Get EVERYTHING. Now, while you won't necessarily get the kill bonus.. you'll be getting EXP from every single monster in the room.. whereas the HU will only get the Kill Bonus from monsters he specifically kills. Those monsters half a room away that the other HU is attacking? Yeah, he doesn't get zip from them. You more than make up you "Kill Bonus" by simply targeting everything. The HU gets a dollar while the FO gets 5 Quarters.

Do you understand? Don't complain about gaining EXP.. cause you probably get more than anyone else on your team.

Personally I just like the idea of having others be there, just in case. But ultimately depend on yourself. I always give up the trifluids and difluids I may pick up as a Hucaseal to any force in my group. And rares, if my character obviously can't use it, why keep it? It is all about using your combined strengths to give hell to all monsters (and kill them as quickly as possible )

In all hoensty it really depends on how many are present. Obiously in a team of four you might get the whole "5 quarters" thing but in smaller teams you actually end up losing EXP. And even though you've gotten a piece of every enemey in the room, so has everyone else. In my team people tend to foucs on one or two monsters till they die. So without me doing more then J/Z I lose exp to hunters and rangers. As at least everyone gets 80 per hit and the lucky guy get the 100. That of course is rarely the force unless they are good at timing things.

FOs are support. Support characters don't get the extra 20%.

I agree with OniTatsujin, nobody should boss FO's around, if I were you I'd just ignore them, cause if any hunters want s/d, they shoud ask nicely before they enter a room, then let forces get in on the action by using techs and such. I'm mainly a HUmar player, but if I ever want S/D, i ask nicely instead of going "Hurry up and S/D!! I'm out! Come ON!!" And I think if you get any of that you should just leave and join a game of sophisticated people instead of staying with the impolite ones... I have a FO, and I think that its no fun to sit back and just S/D every single thing in the room, its funner to get up front, using Rafoie, Rabarta, Razonde, causing serious damage by sending out every tech there is, and once your finished, the only things that are left are your teamates and some items that the enemies droped... Actually, if you haven't tried it, go and use a hailfire of strong techs on the enemies, cause I tried it as a hunter cause it was our first time in Ult Mines, and the regular enemies were seriously hurting us when we attacked normally, so we stocked up on trifluids and used a hailfire of Rafoie on the enemies, it was incredibly fun... ^_^ But for all the forces who just get nagged to constantly S/D everyone, ignore them or go to a different game so you don't have to hear the whining of hunters and rangers who think they cant to anything without S/D... They do it in single mode, why not here? Just ignore them and let them try to survive, they'll do it, even though they think they can't without S/D, and you'll have a whole lotta fun using attack techs like crazy, and have more fun than you ever did just supporting helpless players who can't do anything but nag.

I, usually have no problem casting jz in ultimate mode, except when people tell me to do so. Then I stop, and I stop the sd too and then they call me a noob, dirty HUmars!
