Something that baffles (and annoys) me is that when my friend (who uses a FOnewearl) played along side me he did much more damage than me even though we were the same level. Im a HUcast so my attacks are pretty strong, but can not wipe out an entire room of enemys with one holocaustic explosion (Rafoie, or infact any of the 'big' techs). Do Forces always do more damage than us (hunters) or is just at lower levels when we have worse weapons?
Isn't this great? I found it in one of my old magazines. It's from an advert for PSO 1&2!
I never knew PSO 1&2 came out on GC the same month as Metroid Prime.

Yeah, forces are more powerful than hunters at higher lvls. They get powerful techniques, so they can wipe enemies out more quickly. Only at high lvls, tho. I would have started a FO, but they are so hard to use at the beginning of the game

Well, my lvl 44 FOmar can handle everything pretty easily now, but only because I gave him loadsa high lvl techs and a lvl 200 mag with 150 mind.
Anyway.
My HUmar is lvl 123, online with a friend (lvl 158 FOmar) I do crap damage compared to him. I can do about 1000 damage critical with my Demolition Comet on Sil dragon. He does 1580.He then uses his s-rank twin with berserk, but still...

Forces are vital to most games in tough places like Seabed or Tower, and they are also vital in most challenge mode stages. Enough said.
About dealing damage, nothing is more powerful than a HUcast, but well, a HUcast with Shifta, Deband, Zalure and Jellen, so yeah, it's all about Forces.
Forces are not meant to deal a lot of damage, but more to be the core of the team, supporting it.

Kefka's totally right. Especially in some of the harder online missions, which, due to the geneosity of a friend, I got to play recently. Forces, especially with high level Shifta/Debnad/Jellen/Zalure, and Maybe Resta, are extremely useful. If There are a lot of enemies, a Force can at least begin to hack away at their HP. Not to Newman/Newearl Forces have unlimited potential to revive.

Basically, forces are "usually" better than most hunters when they gain more powerful techniques. Still, none of the classes is better than one another.
They all have strengths and weaknesses...

i, personally, think forces are the greatest invention since socks made of bologna...
(i know, i know, shut it fool...)
they can pile up quite the wad of damage with the correct weapons and techs...
plus they are the best for healing, curing, and adding shifta and deband...

On average, Rangers have more DFP and way more HP than Hunters. Much better meat shields
