Ok since TE happened to be possibly my fav class in pso2 I really want to make it work as a class and I'm starting to get sick of everyone telling me to stick to just stick with maiming FO "because it's better" or telling me that TE "is really only good for zondeel spam"
Zondeel spam has to be in my opinion the most boring way to play a Mage class in this game.
Ever since I played elsword back on the KR server before it came to the US I have always loved magic knights because I LOVE being able to switch from ranged magic, to front lines melee
So in every game I strive to pick a class similar OR make one
And in pso2 TE is the best achiever of this, since it has the ability to use techs as well as having access to wand gear.
However this is where the problem lies...
Since TE has almost no boosters for tech dmg
And for a while it had no physical dmg boosters
But coming on the 15th TE will get a buff to wand lovers
Which gives a considerable boost to wand gear (35% dmg)
And gives step and step attack
There's also no pp penalty anymore
As well as putting wand gear gauge at max for the full min of duration
But that still leaves the question of what to sub...
My best options seemed to be FO, BR, and FI.
FI pushes out lots of damage but it's too conditional and my pp recovery is not enough while fighting bosses. so I pushed that off the list...
BR is my next best option with average stance boating a 20% boost to wand gear's dmg and a 30% boost to tech and weak stance doing the same but 20% if I'm hitting a weak point.
Seems not to bad, but I suspect the pp problem I had with FI will still be an issue... But I have yet to try it.
Lastly we have FO Which is the option everyone tells me to go for I terms of the zondeel spam thing.
But I'm looking at it a bit differently... You see wand gear's explosion and shifta/denand are all based on my base t-atk
and with FO subbed and my mag equipped ied have 703 base t-atk but if I go for t-atk up large
then that's + another 120 t-atk putting me at 823 base
which... Is a lot but I know that base boosts don't do much to overall dmg, but I was going for the added boosts to shifta and deband which also are not % boosts but both combined would make shifta bring my base almost to 1k and that's ALOT base boost or not.
However that's all well and good but how we'll are my techs and wand gear dmg we'll that I have no idea...
My gear dmg is boosted by my overall T-atk so the question is at 1k base + my current wand's 1031 t-atk how much would my gear dmg be?
Then boost it by 35% for the new wand lovers buff
Also since I'm subbed FO there would be NO pp problem, and a 30% boost to ALL techs +20% more if I use the weak element.
I don't know what to pick...
FO sounds like a awesome option on paper but ied be highly upset if it doesn't pump as much dmg as it sounds like it would on paper
I know I asked for help on this ALOT in these forums but it always seems to get answered with the same "don't use TE unless you are gonna spam zondeel" or "main FO because TE" sucks.
So please some one not biased so the idea of even using TE please answer?...
Because I'm always going to main this class no matter what anyone says, but I need help picking a sub that can give me everything I need.
