Hero Class: Sword vs. Talis vs. Guns
Ok, it's been bothering me for a while so I have to get opinions. What's better? Sword, Talis, or TMG?
Of course I have my preference as I'm sure all of you do as well. Personally I think sword is king when it comes to Hero class because it's so versatile. Vapor bullet is god-tier especially with target lock. Sword can replenish PP from a distance while dealing damage and deal an outrageous amount of damage from kamehameha when used properly.
Talis is great, I enjoy switching from sword to talis in combo attacks especially, plus talis replenishes large amounts of PP per hit. I don't use talis action but that's only because I maneuver around bosses with sword's vapor bullet (jumping dodge + extra jump, then auto lock + vapor bullet). Blast off a non-charged kamehameha and alternate with vapor bullet.
My least favorite weapon is tmg. Although hero tmg is fast dps it's a PP drain and replenishing PP means having to stop attacking while becoming vulnerable to attacks. Since Hero builds up a higher offense over time with the Hero Boost skill, taking a hit means losing dps. IMO tmg have their place in Hero's repertoire for handling lightweight mobs but I wouldn't boss with it.
Observing other Hero's in this week's Profound Invasion EQ and running Ult Amd I have to say, tmg and talis exclusive Hero's need to get on that sword game. With a sword, while suspended above boss types (jumping dodge + jump) Hero can easily build offense with vapor bullet and non-charged kamehameha while avoiding damage with ease, retaining Hero boost and delivering unimpeded damage.
Which Hero weapon do you think deals the best dps against boss types, and which Hero weapon do you think is better suited for smaller mobs? Of course everyone has their play style, though it seems like some players treat Hero as an upgraded version of gunner.
I made this video to argue that HP/PP is irrelevant on Hero if Hero is used properly. Phaleg is just the opponent, the technique used is what I'm trying to highlight in the video.
