both trees are better imo.

as a ranger you don't necessarily need to get just reversal but i'd suggest it just in case. where you take the points from to get just reversal unlocked is up to you, however if it were me i'd take them from jellen shot.

Each point you put into your R-ATK UP does not give the same bonus amount. You get higher bonuses the more points you put into the same tier. For example, your R-ATK up 1 will give you +3 at level 1, +3 (6) at level 2, +4 at 3 (10), +4 at 4 (14), +4 at 5 (18 ), +5 at 6 (23), +5 at 7 (28 ), +6 at 8 (34), +6 at 9 (40), and +10 at 10 for a total of +50. R-ATK 2 follows the same pattern so you're getting less benefits from your skill points. If you move those 3 points from tier 2 into tier 1 you'd get +34 R-ATK instead of +28 which you are at now.

This is all based on the Japanese Wiki information which i believe to be correct.

wow dude i skimmed thru the thread and it doesn't seem like anybody told you how gimped your ranger tree is

i don't know what your fascination is with weak hit advance but it's definitely not that good.

what you want is jellen shot and weak bullet. jellen shot is famous for making bosses only hit for like ~10 damage, and weak bullet = creates a weak spot on a boss that allies can hit as well. the reason why it's really good is because it MULTIPLIES with an already existing weakspot.

so if you use weak bullet, shoot it at a weak spot on a boss, that weak spot on top of the weak spot caused by the weak bullet will now do gigantic damage, even more so than before.

i wont give you too much flack since it seems like you just haven't played the game yet so you don't know any better. but pretty much everybody will agree with me. jellen shot + weak bullets are necessary as a ranger, unless you just don't like how easy they make the game, i donno. panic shot is also good. stun grenade/traps/bind bullet are garbage though (from my own closed beta experience at least.) they might have changed however, i'm not sure.

as for hunter, you definitely want at least one gear. if you're gonna get one, i suggest partisan, as it's the safest weapon to go with since it's fast and has long range. also you need just guard/just counter. just guard not only takes NO PP to pull off (which means you can guard for an infinite amount of times if your timing is up to par and no unblockables are used by the enemy) it also acts like a counter.

if you just guard (perfect guard) the enemy will receive damage. however your animation is frozen for like 1-2 seconds in the guard state after a perfect guard. this is why you want just counter. just counter allows you to cancel out of that frozen guard animation immediately after you do a perfect guard. it is also not a regular melee attack, but a just melee attack.

you have the right idea in maxing fury stance and fury crit. but trust me, you'll want just guard and just counter and a weapon gear. the functionality they give your character increases your survivability and damage output by a large amount.

@lumir yeah you can get all 3 weapon gears. however personally i won't be getting the wired lance gear. it seems to do nothing, in all honesty. don't let my opinion effect you though, apparently it does slightly increase range and damage, however when i was messing with it it seemed relatively insignificant.

Lol. Weak Spot Advance=25% bonus damage to weak points at 10. I think you're assuming that Jellen Shot and Weak Bullet will always be as ridiculous as they are at low levels, and that's a dangerous assumption. Want to bet there's a reason weak shot gives you five shots or so at rank 10?

Also, just because you don't understand how a gear works doesn't make it useless.

You're taking a very limited experience in CB and trying to extrapolate it as the way the game will work forever. That's silly. In particular, Jellen Shot may well be applying a fixed value debuff, which would be MUCH less crippling at higher levels. You need to chill out.

He needs 3 points in R-ATK 2 to unlock Jellen Shot.

Oh, my bad, thanks for pointing that out. That was my first time to look at the RA tree and thought the jellen shot came from the right instead of the middle.

[Sonngyie]

umm so my RA tree is still wrong? then how should i fix it?
