Who is the best race to ranger? ty greetings from colombia
@@asmodacolombia9146 Probably cast for a tiny bit of R-Atk. But for me i chosed Human Female (Yes. Gender also have different stats).
Thank you for this guide! When I first played PSO2 I ended up with Ranger and then became a Gunner because I liked the idea of twin weapons. However I didn't realize that the playstyle was completely different and my inability to utilize my launcher caused me to end up not enjoying the job as much as I would have liked. That was some years ago and now with the NA release I've decided to give it a go and start up as a Ranger again with the focus to stay on Ranger and improve at it. So now watching this video is great because I was kind of learning how the various weapons worked and their best situations. I really appreciate this guide and just watching the footage helps me. : ) Thank you for taking the time to post this ^^
Thank you putting in the time for this review\guide! It was very informative and covered more than just the basics, well done!
Holy shit the editing is on point! I cant imagine how you went about it, simply fantastic work!
It's your content that not only got me to play Ranger but keeps me playing it. Keep up the amazing work.
You need more views! You always have the cleanest and most precise videos. Love the content. Keep it up (:
Damn this is the quality im looking for in Gunner guides.
Really appreciate this guide! I will choose this class when this game comes to pc, thank you!
I look forward to seeing more class videos. This one was great!
Just got to lvl 50 today. Didnt realize I was waiting 7 years for this game. Anyways, I started out ranger a few days ago and this video is extremely helpful. Thank you!! -subbed
Amazing as always. I'm going to refer a lot of people to this.
Hello blac love your vids btw.
@@wyattg.3767 Thanks :D But this ranger video here blows what I do out of the water.
This is a really well put together video. Thanks for making!
Subbed and looking forward to more, awesome job making it look professional, noob friendly script for people like me trying out the JP server again after so long :p Keep it up!
Awesome vid! Please stay the awesome ranger senpai that's always leading us!
Thanks for the video! Looking forward to more. Launcher is my favorite weapon.
Tbh the best guides i've seen. Thanks for the video
Very helpful video covered all the bases of what I need to understand and good examples of what I might be doing wrong etc
Awesome overview! Hope to see more Rangers around now. 👍
such a great video,always loved ranger but alot of people kept saying ranger isn't that strong,this just shows it's down to them,and your positioning was on point,can't even imagine how long it took to get that good.
You need more Subs, this was very well explained!
Great video! Lots of solid info on the playstyle and especially the difficulties Ranger players may face re: positioning and timing.
Only comment I would make is not as much towards Ranger but towards the Ranger vs. Gunner damage comparison. Gunner can kill Rodos just as fast as Ranger. By doing DA -> Messiah you lose out on a very large chunk of Messiah's damage. Gunner with modest equips (my Lib TMGs are 200 R-Atk/P. Weak but my Units are 150 Attack All-Rounders) and with the lowest Shifta drink I can apply Chain 10 and then do S-Roll into full Messiah for a quick kill. Even on the Rockbear demonstration, double IF0 combos actually lose to TAJA/S-Roll Messiah Time now.
Great video, hope to see more on other classes
allright you got me...even if a year or so late. I'm convinced to play Ranger now
Ranger Squad!!!! Can’t wait until tomorrow!
This is amazing, thanks dude.
What was that you used at 0:40 I haven't touched my ranger in almost forever I left it at 90 did they come out with new PA's while I was away?
ua-cam.com/video/nP52sqt8t9g/v-deo.html
Prominence Assail, a Complex PA.
Excellent video!
this was great thanks for the info !
What sub class you use in this video? :0
9:17 no wonder she was powerful, she was using a Stand.
As a Ranger main for 6 years. I approve this guide to new PSO2 NA players, Ranger will require you alot of time and patience to make the class really powerfull but once you finally got through with all your hardwork every player in any mpa would want a really skilled Ranger user not just a WB slave but also a heavy dps dealer.
I salute to you fellow Ranger! o7
How many weapon pallets do you normally scroll through in a fight?
@@andrewhelms6249 sorry for late late reply.
I use 5, it all depends on situations. My 1-2 weapon pallet are for mobbing/destroying parts of boss, 3rd for big type of boss, 4th for boss like Omega Masquerade and Phaleg type of boss (very agile bosses), 5th is launcher for mobbing (I also use the mannequin type of PA against boss like Phaleg so she won't attack for a few seconds). That's all, really. At first when you're playing ranger, you'll find it hard to adjust to your position specially when fighting 1on1 against a boss, soon enough you'll get used to it and can abuse a crafted PA(Parallel Slider) to dodge easier, and you can also do some cool moves like other class.
A great guide! Thanks for the video Nope!
Thanks for the guide!
I am new to this game and want to ask I am currently using Nox Steyr to use it requires rng Def. My Mag has a small amount of rng Def but I want to pump everything to rng pwr. Is the mag characteristic taken into account or do the requirements for using ignore the mag characteristics?
Stat equip requirements takes into account your mag's stats yes. Try to focus everything into RNG PWR if you can, since there are a few endgame weapons you can't equip if you ruin your mag.
thanks
Really appreciate your Ranger overview guide, it helped me a lot since starting on PC NA! Just wondering, I've seen your PA guides for Phantom, but will you do an in-depth video on Phantom like you did with Ranger here?
I'm in the middle of making one actually, but it won't available this week.
A really good guide, Only issue i had is the Standing and Moving Snipe Skills on the current JP patch does the same amount of bonus damage. It doesn't on the current NA version, but if they update the NA version to the current JP version, it could be a misconception.
Hey. Nice video on ranger. Sometimes I just gotta get all the details right. Are the main PA'S that you were using for rifle one point, diffuse shell, impact slider, parallel slider and end attract? Also is complex photon arts the same as custom photon arts? I see someone asked earlier about a launcher photon art
Impact Slider, Parallel Slider, One Point, End Attract and Satellite Cannon.
Complex PAs are different from custom PAs in that they require stocks to use and not PP
im quite new to this game..and i like ranger class a ton so far..may i ask how do i get that suit you have in the video? that black coat and hat :3
Hat has yet to be released in Global
Suit is Wool Coat, recolored black
I want to try this out but i dont like being stationary :(
Thanks for the guide! Could I also ask the names of the items on the outfit you have on with the all black and white hair?
Assuming JP: i.imgur.com/U1LwcGH.png
If not, you'll have to find the NA names yourself since i'm lazy
I'd just like to know what constitutes aiming in this game. I'm on PC and I've played many fps and just started PSO2 today, but I got no idea, sometimes things hit, sometimes they do not. I can't swivel my character around. Very confused.
Aiming is mostly about leading one of Rifle's biggest hitters: Positron Blast, since it's a slow moving energy blast that can hit up to 5 times. It's not as important on Launcher, since you mostly just want to shoot explosives on the floor in OTS mode, and Rifle can get away using target lock-on for the majority of their attacks.
@@zenora4028 Just realized your avatar is Courage the Cowardly Dog, awesome! Thanks again.
How are u using a katana as a ranger? On NA I can’t seemed to equip a katana as a ranger to use morning mistreaver
There's an all-class Katana called Helen Bathina that has Morning Mistreaver built-in, but NA doesn't have it just yet.
What class race is he
What is on your "9" key binding for your AR and Launcher?
Stock counter for using special attacks called "Complex PAs". Each class (except for Hero/Phantom/Etoile) has one tied to their specific weapon, some requiring more stocks to use.
Ranger's Complex PA, Prominence Assail, requires a Launcher to use, but it only consumes 1 stock.
Do we know if Jumping Dodge ring is in the NA version yet? If so how do I go about getting one? As a new player that aerial advantage is too good to pass up.
It's in the game, dubbed as Leaping Dodge in the shops.
You're a lifesaver. Is it just at the ring shop?
@@Oberon_theFaeKing
Yes. You can also buy one from others via Player Shops, if you want to skip the ring grind & leveling for a price.
So helpful, thanks!
Quite useful guide considering the open beta will arrive soon on EN.
Do you think you'll do any more of these? This was very informative.
No plans to make more at the moment.
Hey, what's a good sub class for ranger?
If you're getting started with Ranger, I would suggest Hunter. It offers high, unconditional damage modifiers (161.4% shooting damage), great survivability options like automatic healing when dropping below 50% HP, and access to Massive Hunter/Hunter Physique (NA dubbed name) that grants immunity to knockback for a duration.
For other options, I have a write-up on most of them here: somethingaboutlagging.wordpress.com/updated-class-combinations/
how do you get high damage? I'm level 77 but my damaged per shot is about 2k, how do you improve the damage?
You'll have to clarify since there's a lot of factors that could affect your damage. What attack were you testing it on?
Yeah i noticed that there were a lot of factors, various monsters tho
@nope I need a build path like how to increase dps what weapons I should be looking for armor what pa’s are being used also what minor effects are optimal
Are you playing on NA servers? or JP servers?
I'm playing NA level 45 atm. Need advice on gear I should work on and plan for. And what to run most of the time.
@@jedimindtrick7289
Sorry for the late reply, unfortunately since I don't play NA I can't give much advice for that.
Gear-wise however, look into getting an Elder Rifle or Yas7V with the Enchanted Mag pot (uses weaponoid boosters to unlock), Launcher should be Cannon Revo, Shooting Drive/Sigma Launcher being a poverty option
what sub class you recommend? rings ect?
The RA guide in the video description covers some of your answers, but if you want a tl;dr:
Hunter subclass, recommended rings I'd read the write-up here: pastebin.com/2HtWv6S3
Is it possible to get the same rifle Lisa has in the thumbnail? It's one of my reasons for being a ranger
Yes, it's possible. The Rifle used in the thumbnail is the upgraded version of Ray Rifle, called Union Rifle.
@@zenora4028 God bless
Very informative video! Although format-wise, I think it could use some improvements. The top text is hard to read while also being distracted by the ongoing action onscreen, whether it directly applies or not. Could use some form of voiceover, or text/titles featured more prominently alongside the specific thing its referencing. Most text would be on the bottom, like subtitles are.
Fair points you've made. I originally didn't want to place it at the bottom since the video progress/seek bar would obscure the text, but I'll do what I can to improve text readability.
what is the basewear outfit your fcharacter is wearing?
Assuming JP: i.imgur.com/U1LwcGH.png
If not, you'll have to find the NA names yourself since i'm lazy
Is it this class suitable to use on a controller?
You might have some issues landing shots on some weakpoints, but it's playable enough.
What hat is that on your Rosen namad character, I've been looking for it for a while lol
Black Cossack Hat
And what is the name of the armor bro (outwear)?
7:42 what weapon camo is that?
pso2.arks-visiphone.com/wiki/Lightstream_Ambixion
Only thing I will complain is that the video isn't called Shoot to Thrill and had ACDC music in the background. Other than that I think this is the most beautiful Ranger thing ever.
solid video thanks bro
Yo, what's up Nope? Thanks for the guide.
I was scouring through the comments and found some links to builds. I realized that most of them are for level 90. If I remember correctly, level cap for NA launch this week on PC will be 75. How will this impact the builds? Are they much different?
Thanks in advance.
By a bit. There's builds for level 75 cap in the following link: somethingaboutlagging.wordpress.com/updated-class-combinations/
@@zenora4028 Damn, I overlooked that part of the guide. Thanks man. I appreciate it.
is there a way we can see your skill tree?
NA? RaHu + other subclasses: bit.ly/2XFh5mC
JP? RaEt: bit.ly/2XfUa2c
what is your character design from? it looks super similar
Thanks for the guide as well!
The look is based off the Firearms Weaponoid (Weaponoids being personification of PSO2 weapons) from PSO2es.
what s-rank augments do you suggest on a ranger class?
somethingaboutlagging.wordpress.com/s-class-abilities-s-grade-augments/
@@zenora4028 thank you :)
what is the Launcher PA at 3:04? Thanks
p.s. your movement speed and dodging is unnaturally fast - is there a passive or the video speed is up?
Prominence Assail, a Complex Photon Art.
ua-cam.com/video/nP52sqt8t9g/v-deo.html
EDIT: Nothing is sped up in the video. Most of the time I cancel my dodges by using a lobby action mid-animation.
@@zenora4028 thanks a lot - could you also name what is spinning around you at 0:50? i seems like a melee ability
@@r7317
it's the level 200 SP action from mag; Clobber
What subclass would you recommend ? I’m really into pvp and end game dungeon tings
I'd recommend Hunter subclass starting off, then moving into Etoile subclass after.
Hunter sub lets you learn some Ranger fundamentals, while Etoile improves upon RA gameplay by offering better quality of life perks, such as having super armor when stationary.
Nope thanks 💪🏾. I’m mad excited now lol
@@zenora4028 Etoile?
@@andrewhelms6249
A successor/scion class only availble in JP atm.
Can you use launcher only RaHu?
Can you? Yes.
Should you? I wouldn't recommend it.
Launcher's attacks are notoriously slow, and has relatively short range compared to Rifles. You'll die very often if you have issues dodging with the default dodge roll.
Does SlowDiveRoll skill-ring bad?
I don't recommend it since it slows you down too much in combat, but you could use it in specific cases like avoiding big attacks.
At 2:25 for Optimal what skill are you using?
Piercing Round. The projectile can double-tick if you're shooting it at a certain distance, beating most options outside of 4-5x tick Positron Blast.
@@zenora4028 thanks for the info and great video. One day I'll be as good as you.
1 question what is the purple thing around you?
Special Mag trigger when it reaches level 200, the one in particular is called Clobber (JP term), which increases ATK & recovers PP per hit.
@@zenora4028 oh ok much appreciated
So what PA should i use for launcher? During aoe?
My usual go-tos are Divine Launcher, Concentrate One (Triple Shot in NA) and Cosmos Breaker.
Though, most of the Launcher PAs are pretty good outside of Fake Silhouette (Deceptor Double) being absolutely horrid.
@@zenora4028 thank u for the reply. For that i subscribed. Also i found a nemesis cannon so i cant wait to try out your setup.
Hey I was wondering what baseware you were using owo
Assuming JP: i.imgur.com/U1LwcGH.png

Great Vid.
Also whats the outfit at 3:24?
Shooting Drive's outfit.
www.bumped.org/psublog/pso2-jp-ac-scratch-galaxy-weaponoid/
oh wow, this really makes me feel like i have to get one ranger for myself. so rahu or raet?
i’m definitely not a ra veteren lol, since most of the time i used teph and ph(rifle). so recommendations on which combination is good for ra is needed. i want something more versatile for most of the situation
RaHu is gonna be the standard starting out in NA until Etoile comes.
Etoile is basically everything you could ask for regarding damage reduction, knockback immunity and damage output.
Of course Hunter still has an on demand knockback/flinch immunity (Massive Hunter) and a chance to survive at 1 HP (Iron Will) with Invulnerablilty if thats activated (Never Give Up) which really helps in those scenarios where you eat a lot of high damage and dont have a time to heal.
@@SonicCaliburS4 I will stay in jp server I guess, since I started to play this game in 2012. Can't afford to give up all my progress, plus I love my waifu teph. (Although profile pic shows other character lol)
RaEt is the better version of RaHu, you don't need iron will on RaEt because you tank even raid wipes, better DPS potential would be RaFi, but that is only for very skillfull players.
this video made me sub
What skill is being used at 7:52? :O
Sphere Eraser (not sure what it is called on the NA server). It's a launcher PA, hold down the button to keep it going, until you run out of PP or let go.
@@doomdragon83 Thanks!
I'm very new and I chose ranger and this looks really overwhelming
These are usually mid to end game stuff. Otherwise just get a launcher and go boom boom to start off with.
I'm so psyched for ranger. Would u say rangers are must have for parties due to weak bullet?
I wouldn't say Rangers are mandatory for parties; Weak Bullet is nice to have but there's no content that demands needing RA for +20% more damage.
@@zenora4028 Aww so no elitism bout it, great
Having TeRa sup is amazing for the runs though, faster runs saving boost times or whatever time you want to save.
Comparing a level 35 elder rifle and 35 nemesis rifle fully maxed out which is better investment?
+35 Nemesis/Slave series with Mobile Fire matches Elder Rifle with +30%, and btfos it with Stationary Fire on.
4rt.info/psod/?5qjSw
Nope I just daw the chart so it's nemesis/slave is much better elder rifle even with max stats. What about units?
Should I get saiki units or save up for the next episode 4 and 5 units?
@@iMarcism
I'd suggest getting Ray units for now, they're good enough as placeholders over Saikis.
Nope tyty
Nope can I check is the unit name Vertiray
what should i have on my sub pallete if im ranger
Mandatory to have Blight Rounds, Grenades/Traps on your palette at least, then you can fill the remaining slots with w/e.
I personally run this on Ranger/Hunter:

Which one is best? Ranger or gunner?
Depends on what you want.
tl;dr
Gunner better for bossing, high skill floor, moderate/high skill ceiling.
Ranger better for general/supportive damage, low skill floor but high skill ceiling.
@@zenora4028 thank you 💖
Risa approves.
I miss base PSO2.....
8 M!!! I can barely get that thing up to 2...
or you can use phantom :O
good guide here btw, I love ranger that has been my main class since I started playing PSO2.
I think they're mostly doing this because the western release is coming up! And Phantom won't be available to us at launch.
@@The_Babe I know, I was joking.
gunner needs a buff
Class looks too complicated to get right as a first. Guess I'm out since casters are too slow and melee is boring
Phantom is a caster and it's not slow, no where close to it, and even high level play of Force makes it interesting, this game is all about skill.
Ranger isn't complicated, you pretty much play it for End Attract, Satelite Cannon and slider, no reason to play it outside of big bosses and mobbing, sucks ass outside of those, and its very easy compared to BBow and Partizan, 2 of the most complicated weapons to use since both needs to be played around stacking bombs PAs.
Don't mind me i'm just a lazy ass hero main :p
That's a fail comparison to Gu *Angry*
I couldn't find someone to showcase high-end Gunner, so I tried to do what I could :v(
