Veteran Commander

Specialty

A faulty weapon is unsafe to its holder, and it's about time the expert fighter fixed his own. True to form, the mercenary takes crucial parts from his dreadful enemies' defenses. With these and a little help, he improves the Nasod arm to better withstand overheating and even deal deadlier attacks.

Background

The Nasod arm may be capable of massive destruction, but Raven is alarmed that it is overheating far too often now. The mercenary needs to get it fixed before it fails him in battle, and before long, he approaches the Ponggos for their expertise.

Raven is then sent out to collect rare materials for the repair: Ignis’s arm that blasts out nuclear flames, for greater firepower; the dark steel of Durahan Knight, for better heat resistance; and enchanted, mass-altering golem fragments, for making the usually heavy dark steel easier to carry. Gathering all these from such huge, dangerous monsters is clearly not simple, but Raven succeeds nonetheless.

The Ponggos complete the Nasod arm enhancement, and soon, Raven becomes the distinguished Veteran Commander—a temperamental yet compassionate leader of fighters.

Second Class Advancement

Veteran Commander can also be obtained by using the Item Mall item: Badge of the Crow Mercenaries.

At Lv35, Weapon Taker can advance into Veteran Commander. The second class advancement quest is obtained from Ariel, the event NPC located in every town.

Additional Combos

Image	Description	Damage
File:VCcombo1.png	Air Bomb Raid (Will overheat) Raven jumps into the air, shoots out an explosive shell, and continues the combo with a barrage of shells at a 45 degrees range. The first shell he fires requires MP, and launches the target slightly. Repeatedly pressing the X key will fire shells repeatedly, causing overheat, with the last shell also launching the target. However pressing the X key only twice will fire the first shell and then another, both of which will launch the target, with no overheat. Should the shells come into contact with a platform they will leave a trail of fire momentarily, burning any targets they come in contact with. The shells will fizzle out and disappear if they travel far enough without contact, however flames still appear where they would hypothetically land. A maximum of 10 shells can be fired in one volley.	?? Mag. Damage  ?? Mag. Damage Times Number Of Shots  ?? Mag. Damage
	Sword Flame Thrower (Requires overheat) After executing the standard >>ZZ combo, Raven spins around, striking the target with his claw and blasts flames from his palm. Requires overheat to use at all; attempting to do so without enough HP will cause instant recoil. Hold the button to continue spraying flames.	100% Phy. Damage 100% Phy. Damage 50% Phy.

Trivia

• Whenever Veteran Commander's arm overheats, it will show as his arm 'vents' opening, and makes a sound when it closes.
  • As such, Veteran Commander is the only one of Raven's job classes whose Nasod arm has visual effects.
• Veteran Commander's Nasod arm is the most armored when compared with Blade Master and Reckless Fist.
• Grand Archer and Veteran Commander have the most Status changing skills out of every other 2nd Job.
• Veteran Commander is now the only character to induce the Bleed effect with Bleeding Slicer.
  • After the skill revamp from 6/27/2013 Infinity Sword can cause Bleed, with the passive Sharp Blade and Trapping Ranger's Brier Trap skill.
• It is unknown as to why a part of Veteran Commander's hair turns red, though it may be similar to Infinity Sword, in which his hair was stained with blood.
