Recommend me a class to play, my friend is playing a Newman Techer

[robinhood]

He will most likely end up playing the role of a very pure techer, with lots of support and damage-dealing spells but very weak physically.

Which class/race would complement a Newman Techer best? A hunter type or ranger type? Where does a Techer fail so that I can step in and fill that weakness?

Sorry for making so many threads lately, and I really appreciate all the answers you guys have given :)

Does your friend plan on being a Masterforce (Lv50 Offense, Lv10 Support) or an Acrotecher (Lv30 Offense, Lv50 support), or a Foretecher (Lv40 Offense+Support)?

If he's going to be a Masterforce, I'd suggest Gunmaster. The two of you may need the ranged capabilities for some party missions. If he's going either of the other two I would say you should go as a Fortefighter/Acrofighter/Fighmaster

So would a Gunner of some sort be an overall safer choice assuming he's not sure which advanced class he's going to specialize in?

[beatrixkiddo]

Probably. You won't be AS strong as a Techer+Fighter, but probably safer and more versatile.

Keep in mind that you can always change your type if you find yourself not liking it.

If a friend joins us as a Gunner, then would it be more optimal to have a Fighter + Techer + Gunner combo as opposed to a Techer and two Gunners?

[beatrixkiddo]

Definately the first. Fighters can blow away all other classes when it comes to damage, they just have the occasional stumbling block that the two other classes typically have a much easier time killing.

Beatrix got it exactly right. When I first started playing I picked a Newman techer and my friend was a fighter. I think we made (and still make) a very good team. A techer + gunner combo is also good if you prefer guns over melee.

Nono no no


if your friend goes MasterForce go AcroTecher.... and have a Nuke Duo.... If he go Acrotecher or Fortetecher try a FFor FighMaster or any othe melee class

I agree that a gunner class and AcroT or ForteT make a good group as well

Indeed. I suggest making a CAST if you feel this might happen down the road because they make good gunners and fighters. A beast or a human wouldn't be a bad choice either, but I think a CAST would have the easiest time adjusting. I would advise you to go with whichever one you like best though because I don't think that complementing your friend should be as important as what would make you happy, and you'll be all right with any route you choose.
