Thread: Ranger is UP?

  1. #1

    Default Ranger is UP?

    It seems rangers do almost no damage at all without photon arts. I tried it out and was doing like 8-11 damage a bullet, but I did do quite alot with a rocket launcher...but that's a rocket launcher. Rangers' main gun is the rifle, It seems, since almost every ranger I've played with has a rifle that may be strong but still only does like 80 damage on bullet. Is there something I'm missing here?, because it seems ranger is a UP class compared to the others.

    You should be using your PP no matter what class you are, so this is kinda irrelevant.

    Also, many RA PAs get alot stronger at lvl16 only because sega logic.

    Also, RA is among the strongest classes. Did you not get weak bullet?

    We'll for ranger Weak Bullet is a must have... In my opinion look into getting that to 10/10 on skill tree

    Well first of all what is your level? Second your subclass?

    ranger needs a minimum lv of 28 for both weak hit advance. those are a must have. Also don't forget to JA(just attack). Basic attacks are just for pp restoration.

    Ra can easily one shot mobs at Sh if you get some lv 16 PA's but vh shouldnt be a problem even with lv 10ish.

    RA requires finesse to really bring out the power in them. They're more than capable of one-shotting a huge number of SH mobs, albeit they are a little slow to the punch compared to other classes. They have very high versatility which also means knowing when to use the right PA at the right time.

    For Normal through Very Hard Launcher is better for general mob killing than Rifle: Divine Launcher, Cluster Bomb in TPS mode, and Divine Launcher should cover a lot of situations better than Rifle. Gunslashes Additional Bullet and Thrillerplode also good too.

    Once you're on Super Hard and can get lv.16 Diffuse Shell Rifle it's a nice alternative in some situations since mobs mainly rush up to your face after spawning and the power boost of lv.16 Diffuse Shell should allow you one-shot all the small through medium size mobs in one nice cluster.

    Outside of that Rifle is mainly pulled out for Weak Bullet > Sneak Shooter, Homing Emission, or lv.16 Impact Slider on bosses.

    Also your mindset of play style should probably change some. This not really a game when normal attacks is worth much as a main attack, just a way to build PP again to spam Photon Arts.

    Edit: Bah, said Standing Snipe instead of Sneak Shooter.

    It can as SS comes into effect and applies during the whole PA as long as you were standing still for a second before using it. What you can't do is chain SS out of Impact Slider because you were moving after the PA ended.

    Pretty sure you should be using Photon Arts as much as possible
