Sniping Ranger

Specialty

The Sniping Ranger's specialty is her long bow. Her aim, even from a great distance, always rings true. Her superhuman speed and a little magic thrown in for good measure gives her the ability to fill the sky with arrows, skewering anything caught in the flurry. While great in a party, she can still handle most situations all by herself.

  • Longest ranged attacks
  • Multiple enemy attack
  • Can entangle enemies leaving them helpless
  • Is able to easily group mobs and suspend them in the air with Wind Ward
  • Able to safely support party members from long range


Weaknesses

  • Low overall damage per second (DPS)
  • Low MP recovery
  • High dependance on MP
  • Very weak physical combos
  • Combos are lag sensitive

Background

As an archer, one must always be careful when shooting their arrows. During her travels, Rena decided to improve her archery skills, so she asked Lenphad to make her a new bow so that she is able to use new attacks. Training her speed and accuracy gave her the title, Sniping Ranger.
