Greetings, I'm getting the urge to take what little free time I have and settle down in MS for while. Before I dump my time into a class though, what is everyone's opinion on Blaster? I plan to pick up where I left off in Reboot and have been interested in bringing up a Xenon, Dawn Warrior, Hero, Angelic Buster, or Blaster.

Would any of these be a particularly awful choice, considering Reboot's nature?

Some general opinions/tips for those classes are more than welcomed 'v'/ thanks

    Blaster is hard to do max lines with. Almost all Blaster's skill you can't spam, SO yea it's pretty hard to control.(only 1 skill you can spam and it's insanely strong that does a massive amount of dps and lines[ 9 lines a skill and it's a 4th job skill])

    Personally I LOVE Blaster, but they're far from beginner friendly. I've played BaM (205) and TB (180), and they don't hold a candle to Blaster. If you do take the time to learn them, they're incredibly fun and worth the effort because of the sheer amount of damage they can deal.

    None of your choices are bad, but Blaster and Dawn Warrior may have some difficulty if you have a high ping (DW's Equinox becomes unstable in lag and Blaster might have trouble cancelling skills in lag)

    For Dawn Warrior: Use either Luna Stance or, if your ping allows, Equinox! Both will out damage Sol Stance (in my experience at least), but you'll need to max Sol and Luna to obtain both Equinox, and the 4th job passive that enhances your stances.

    contrary to whats been said above, after getting it to 200 i can easily say it's new player friendly, the skills and how they work are pretty self explanatory, good damage with great mobbing, all around a fairly decent class.

    I see 'o' Thanks! I'll definitely give Blaster a spin then. What's the worse that can happen >3>
