Talk:Combat Ranger/Archive 1

...Okay guys, why is "Increased Magical Attack (Almost equal to Aisha's)" one of COMBAT RANGER'S STRENGTHS? It may be a 'strength' of hers, yet I do not see this on Sniping Ranger's strength list. Combat Ranger has only level 3 Intermediate Magic Training, and besides, nothing she uses except base skills, Crescent Kick, and arrows utilize the magic attack stat. --ShiraKei (talk) 00:51, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

The reason I put that in was because her base attack stat is significantly increased by Fighter Spirit, it increases her Magical Attack stat very close to Aisha's surpassing even Eve's. Sniping Ranger and Grand Archer have significantly lower Magical Attack when equipped with equal level gear because they lack this skill. Intermediate Trainings do not have nearly as significant an effect on damage toward late game IMO. --Professor Cirno (talk) 01:00, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

Opps, I guess what I mean isn't base stats but basic stat distribution. She can put an extra 10% into her M.Atk for free pretty much which surpasses Intermediate Magic Training as long as she has over 1,500 P.Atk. For skills, I think that Crescent Kick would be enough to justify having high Magic Attack, the only special active that would out-damage it on a single large enemy is Gungnir right now, even on small enemies and without its skill note it does almost twice as much as Sharp Fall. Her base class skills aren't bad either with siege being able to output ~5,500% magic damage for 135MP dealing almost as much as her 250~300MP skills and Rail Stinger\Phoenix Strike being field clears that continue being useful for her. --Professor Cirno (talk) 03:37, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
