Seriously? I'm fairly sure I've stated they are close to worthless a few times
. Unfortunately it took me getting to 99 to realize it
. Sure, they do amazing AOE DPS via desperado...but thats pretty much it. I don't know of any other ranged class that has to get that close to another person to do decent damage. In a one vs one environment, Full Buster will only kill people who are extremely ill equipped...and if you cant, that 3 sec delay will likely get you killed. I guess I'm slightly better off against 2nd job, but rarely does anyone compare a second class to extended.
A larger hp/sp modifier would be nice for the class. At 78 vit I have 8037 hp, 63 int I have 750sp. Vit I am fairly ok with, however, the sp cost of most of my skills still shred through that 750sp with ease.
Knowing Gravity won't ever "fix" GS, I'd be happy with a [4] slotted gun...but will that ever happen? Not likely.
With that being said, I don't regret getting to 99 on my GS. I love the class even with all its faults, its simply fun to play. Nothing quite like hopping into a pvp room with 8 or so people, sitting together and being friendly...and then you come along and spam desperado and take out most if not all of them before you die
.
Now SG, they aren't worthless...haha, definitely not worthless. Im just saying, they weren't really designed to be all that "future proof". Must admit its pretty fun spamming /doridori for the .03% chance every 10 seconds. Its kind of like hunting a card, except that your doing it to be able to get further use out of??your class
. Im going to give myself a week, if I cant successfully get this card...err...get a map reset by spamming /doridori, then I guess I have to remake my SG.
