Longbows, for example, use TP+ATA as their main damage modifier; Rifles use ATP+ATA. Rifles are not only faster, and have a superior Charge Bullet in most occasions, a Newman Force with the best Longbow does less DPS than a Newman Force with the best Rifle.
Techniques have the worst DPS in the game, but are great for support early on; buffs from a Force can only go up a LV3 buff (PA Disk LV21+), which is quite the difference from the LV5 buffs a Cast's SUV can do.
Vanguards are the best class for simple reasons; their statistics are similar to a Hunter's, but feeds power into more important statistics like EVP, TP, MST... ect; the biggest reason is that they have EX Traps, which in the Japanese version used to be miles better than anything else; since the patch, they still have the best DPS in the game. Vanguards can use 8 EX Traps, Rangers can use 4. Both Hunters and Forces (a somewhat under-performing type as it is) can't use EX Traps.
Although the difference of PP in comparison to a Human's and Newman's is small, there's still a application difference when using Range weapons. Once the Type Ability PP High Boost is equipped, the difference no longer impacts Range weapons by such a way. Without the ability, Newmans are better with building larger chains, whereas Humans are not quite so able in that aspect. Once the ability is equipped, Humans are able to use Range weapons as chain support in a very effective way, and are better with damage output.
PP High Boost > PP Restore Rate; the former increases the amount of maximum PP and increases the restore rate to about what PP Restore Rate would increase it by.
TP is the modifier for the amount of HP restored when using Resta. When a Technique pass LV11+, or LV21+, it becomes slower to use. Humans, Newmans, and Beasts, can use LV10 Resta, the fastest way to use it, and restore all of their HP. Casts on the other-hand, struggle to restore their health to the maximum due to their very low TP (although very good equipment can change this). Going by what was mentioned above, Casts are the worst users of Longbows as well.
