Hucast Vs Hucaseal

[Orphen]

Hucaseal they look ace they can actually hit things on ult with out a mag with 100+ dex

I would go for HUcaseal, HUcasts are indeed strong, but they miss alot, which can be quite bad at times, and well, the animations with HUcaseals for daggers and such are quite fun to watch. Their accuracy is almost in the ranger caliber, and well, the only problem I have with them is their sword slash, they step in so far it leaves them open to get raped. x_X I would prefer HUcl, though.

Hucasts dont miss that badly as l8r you hit almost every hit anyways. The only place i miss is in the seabed as the sinow zoas keep warping away

[Orphen]

Well, I cannot say too much on hucast behalf, because I have only used one in challenge mode, and they miss targets alot.

[Heavy_Arsenal]

well at low levels they have a better chance of hitting themselves for that matter
*sees booma and brings back saber to far and cuts himself in half* NOT AGAIN!!!

[Orphen]

I would rather have accuracy and hit almost like, every hit, rather than miss twice and get myself eaten alive before hitting hard.

Good point. Why do you think I favour HUcaseals in C-Mode compared with a HUcast?
Simple.
HUcasts miss far too much!!!

I have both a HUcast and HUcaseal and love them both, but that is because most of the time I go more for looks than stats. Here is my analysis of the two classes:

Max HUcast HP: 1762
Max HUcaseal HP: 1380

That's almost 400 HP difference between the two. Most people will want a higher hp, so HUcast wins there.

Max HUcast ATP: 1639
Max HUcaseal ATP: 1301

That's over 300 difference in ATP between the two classes. As a Hunters high ATP is one of the biggest reasons for picking one, it is safe to say that HUcast wins there also.

Max HUcast DFP: 601
Max HUcaseal DFP: 525

76 difference in DFP isn't that huge, but it is still another thing that HUcasts are better in than HUcaseal.

Max HUcast ATA: 191
Max HUcaseal ATA: 218

HUcaseals win by a big margin here, with much higher ATA. 191 is still more than enough though, so the extra is only going to be noticed on weaker weapons in nasty areas.

Max HUcast EVP: 660
Max HUcaseal EVP: 877

Again, HUcaseals win by a big margin of over 200. Sadly, this is EVP we are talking about, so there are very few people who actually care about how high this stat is

In conclusion, HUcasts have better HP, DFP and ATP, whereas HUcaseals have better ATA and EVP. When you also take into consideration that the HUcaseal's trap growth rate is dreadful compared with HUcast's, it is clear to me which class is the better of the two. The only people who should go for HUcaseal rather than HUcast are those who will keep their character at a low level, not try to boost their ATA, rely on EVP to protect themselves and not use many traps (silly people ).

You forgot C-Moders too Omar.

You forgot C-Moders too Omar.

HUcaseals C-moders are scarce in Ep2 c-mode >_>
it's usually HUcast x3 + FO or HUcast x2 + RAcast + FO, I've only see na HUcaseal once in Ep2 C-mode, we usually refuse them...

In Ep1 C-mode, HUcaseal is probably better except on C9.

But truly, HUcaseal is the worst Hunter, she's not bad, not at all, just the worst.
Most people think she looks cool, so they pick her, well good for them, looks are more important in PSO, but I think HUcaseal is the worst-looking char (yes, worse than RAmar)

[mimas]

Good to see we agree for once Kefka, if only on a minor point (Ep1 C-Mode).

Even so, I still think HUcaseals are decent Hunters (why do you refuse them in C-Mode teams? This isn't clear). If you want a bad Hunter, go for a HUnewearl - this might be a biased statement but if I wanted a Force I'd make one...
