Ranger/Ninja

[Nico Silius]

This combination sounds really good. Equip two guns and lay waste to all that lays before you.

Sure, your gil will be frighteningly low... but a good ranger with two guns sounds like they could do the most damage in the game, bar none.


Also, a few small questions... if you use a summon stone, can you keep the creature at the end of battle (if it survives) and can you use healing spells on your captured creature you summoned?

[Destructor121]

i am not completely sure on this but are guns single handed? i thought only swords could be used with double wield.... because i do know that to wield two swords they have to one right handed and one left handed

[Nico Silius]

Heh, I'm not totally sure myself. ^_^

I assumed there would be some one-handed pistol items... it seems like there would be, but that isn't proof that there is.

As for only swords and sword-like weapons (knives, ect.) I've heard that you can attack with fists and the like that normally hit twice would hit three times if you subbed ninja, and I've also heard that blunt items would still strike twice (canes).


I just know enough to think that this is possible... but not enought to KNOW that it's possible.

[Destructor121]

yeah... i know that duel guns would most definately be sweet.....by thw way have you seen any new pics with ninjas in them... i know the expansions out now but not many people have seen them. i figured a decent amount of people would be a ninja

[Awntawn]

Guns are a ranged weapon, you only have one slot for those.

[Sindinista]

But hey, you can still wield the double short swords/knives/axes. Plus the AGI upgrade, which I'm asuming Ninjas get, right?

[Nico Silius]

Yeah... but just imagine how cool it would be to duel-wield pistols, or double pump a shotgun (I have no idea if these exist... but still).

I was just hoping. I always think guns are cool in RPG's (despite the fact I never used Mustado (Spelling?) in FFT...)

The REAL value of RNG/NIN is for all the Legolas wannabes out there. RNG plus dual wield for long knives (daggers) = sound familiar? ... next we're gonna see a PLD/WAR named 'Aragorn' ... :sweat:

[Nameless]

you mean Xxaragon121xX :spin:

But to be on topic
yeah duel wield pistols would be awesome, but then ranger would becom dragoon.
IMO it's cool enough a ranger can have a gun look at maxim's journal he has picture of three rangers holding guns and they look really cool.

[Shuda Marcos]

im planning on just having sets of throwing daggers and such so I can keep my stealth agility and still begin able to attack

[meffy]

guns > bow ~

but bow is cheaper I rather use that and it still outdamages most jobs.

[Tokitoki]

guns are only better than bow past 22 when you get to start using 'Bullet's

At lv 1 you can only use 'Bronze Bullet's that only have 1 DMG

Guns have a much longer delay and the ammo doesnt add ranged acc and atk

Bows have shorter delay, cost less, add ranged atk and acc

The best thing though is that the 'Cannon Shell's at 70 or so that have like 80 DMG




Oh and as a RNG/NIN you would dual wield 2 archer/hawkers knives for the added ranged acc

--------------------------------------------

i hate ppl who uses name from good books and movies; they just make it look worse by naming themselves this...

[poweryoga]

what about Ssjgoku and xxgokuxx and...

anyways, guns >>>>>>>>>> bows.

Silver bullets have 81(!) damage on the ammo itself. Slap on a hellfire and you'll be doing 120~150 damage on ITs easy. I am not rich enough for that and my marksman is not high enough yet either so i'll refrain from using bullets until I get my e-bow....


and silvers are 10k a stack...

No. The real value is the extra +10 ranged accuracy you get from a second archers knife, and the ability to use utsusemi Ichi and Ni. Ninja also has the highest agility bonus (better then Thf), so that means you have just that much better of a chance of hitting. Which really helps when you shoot between 7-15 arrows/shots on a single monster ranging in price of 3gil per arrow (wooden) to 20gil per (scorpion).

I'm a female elvaan RNG/NIN, think what you want... But this layout is one of the best dmg dealing job/sub/race combo's you can get. Stop thinking any elvaan with a bow is trying to be legolass. My character (tahb) would kick his pansy ass.
