I’m here to really discuss on what could be considered viable in meta terms of PvE/PvP instead of going in the intended r7 Cannoneer or Musketeer. In ways of going like r7 Fletcher just using it for a example. I would like to hear people’s insight on this as for myself I rather not go to the expected r7 classes instead. To give a idea for others who would rather not touch r7 ones and still be useful.
C3 Fletcher is the closest you can get to Musketeer and Cannoneer(and the class everyone forgets that exists,wait for it o nthe last line of this post)
But that gap is still quite large.
C1 SR is also very good, but C2 lacks too much compared to R7 classes, class should be renamed Retreat Shooter(see what i did there?)
Also people only want Falconer for Cyrcling and looking funny with Hanging Shot,C2 ends being pointless
Rogue looks really fun on paper but being a Rank 5 class ruins it completely
Ironically the strongest meta class outisde Rank 7 is prolly Wugushi
What about having something like Hunter? Is the companion to broken even be considered viable at all? So something like to say…
Archer > Ranger > Ranger > Ranger > Scout > Rogue > Rogue
Just throwing something out there with this and see what it goes from there. Like is it really out of the question to even consider or is the gap actually to wide to even matter? Wugushi is a nice idea too but how would you build that?
I know you probably want to make use of backstab and be that stealthy assassin kind of character but at the moment it deals poor dmg compared to the other classes you can get at those ranks.
The only way you will start doing any dmg with BS is when you get the karacha set that triples your BS dmg. Also youre taking scout for the cloaking and maybe for the dmg of the attribute but it doesnt add that much dmg…
But even with the karacha set, theres a problem, the single target problem. Maybe with circling from falconer it can dmg more mobs even if they dont ahve their back to you.
