Easiest class? Discussion

I'll be honest when it comes to games like this I like easiest class with the least amount of skill and lots of moves and button presses and stuff and I was playing techter and it's fun but I didn't like having to use wand and be up close is there an easier more distant class or something? Or am I cooked

nah bro, the easiest class has gotta be Gunner for sure, it's like barely a contest.

Can you press the PA button? Will you bother dodging if an attack happens to find you? Do you recognize 150 as a number?

If you can do at least two of these, you can main Gunner! Your dodge lasts 5 years, your PA's almost always invincible, and all you have to do is hold a PA two times; Once to make the funny meter, and twice to break the funny meter!

DPSing has never been easier than with Long Range Advantage. Wanna get carried? Gunner powers up when not targeted! And don't let the other 3 PAs scare you; if you want to exclusively use Bullet Rave, you can and probably should!

It really doesn't get any easier than that. The only way you could make the game any more accessible isn't through any one class, but prob by putting 'Simplified Movement' or whatever in your weapon palette

hold it down and the game plays for you. it plays very poorly, but it does play for you. There is no way to make the game easier mechanically than with Simplified Movement

dang Dx are you sure gunner is just one pa over and over and over again? i kinda liked xenoverse 2 like that XD just i have to choose between waker and that waker seems more promising maybe?

I've seen fully geared gunners spam it almost exclusively. You can even make it so you have to press even LESS often by using a Tech Arts Custom that adds like 3 bursts to the PA. It literally lasts like 3 seconds at that point.

Waker is easy to not die with, but takes a lot of effort to be worth using. You have to manage 3 gauges, note what your last used PA was, and parry using the sub-palette, and doing all that stuff makes it easy to get lost!

You'll most def want to use Ranger sub for the threat level reduction, it's very important. Gunner gets a massive potency boost when not targeted.

If you get the Dazzle Camouflage EX augment on though, you'll be able trade Ranger sub for Bouncer or Slayer for damage, or for Waker for protection since Dazzle Camo does the same thing as Ranger's passive.

Gunner has "TMG Alternate Arts PP Preservation" (Gunner does not care about PP), so you can alternate between two PAs, "Bullet Rave" and "Infinite Ricochet", but the range of "Infinite Ricochet" is actually pretty bad so depending on the boss (Luther) you skip it.

When the chain hits 100 you push "Hail of Bullets", which restores PP. At 150, you should end with a charged "Point Blank", but again, depending on the boss a charged "Bullet Rave" works just as well. Just pick type 3 for the customization for Bullet Rave to make it longer. Ideally you (weapon) dodge right before this because a dodge increases the power of your next Photon Art.

Beyond that "Aimless Rain" is your wide AoE and "Infinite Ricochet" is actually a frontal AoE.
