As a Guntecher, I'm just love'n my crossbows at bullet 21+.
I'm finally high enough to start joining in some S rank rooms, but am starting to learn the drawbacks to the crossbow.
Yes, they're pretty strong at point blank range if you can hit a single enemy with all 3 shots. But there are certain enemies where I just can't get that close to anymore in S. So my crossbows are just then solely for SE3 on mobs.
But there are situations where the damned mobs are SE resistant (King/shield versions comes to mind), or I wanna back off a bit if they're tech spewing mobs (I'm a Caseal, so techs hurt).
So there are times I'd want to switch to cards. They only get SE2, but they have a slightly longer range, plus I don't have to worry about repositioning myself for optimum hits all the time anymore.
Any advice from fellow Cast Guntechers or fG on what element to learn for cards (they are a step down on the SE scale afterall) and when's the ideal situation to use them? Mini bosses/bosses?
At 25% element compared to crossbow's 15%, I can see they're a mob/creature specific weapon for GT/fG.
Yes, I'd always have my SE4 rifles/long bows. But I'm concearned for my offhand weapon for now. Gotta dish out the wands on S rank afterall.

I've yet to check out the other S missions to see when I'd need them. But for now, I'd like to hear from other players with experience.
Thanks.
