Especially with Eunie, seeing her destroy an enemy with guns never gets old!

This is the first class in the line of classes that Eunie inherits from people she hates.

In Gunnie we trust. She's gonna shoot em. And then she's gonna shoot em again (maybe a few more times if they're still moving idk)

Since you mention Noah is best with the guns technically, it made me realise Monolith missed a trick of giving Noah a Monado-esc skin for all his weapons as technically that is all it is for his sword.

The fact that Taion is technically better at wielding guns is hilarious. And perfect.

Gray was one of the most insane heroes in my playthrough, which was on hard mode. Executioner basically guarantees Bravo rating in chain attacks; and getting him multiple times in one chain attack can build up insane damage multipliers. And it’s AoE, which just makes it even sillier

FMJ was such a great class during my play through. It really is a fantastic class going through the game

Gray covers his face to hide himself unlike Enel the most handsome lad in the lands whom needs no cover.

I like the accessory that increases your accuracy every time you miss (up to +50%). Sure, it's not a straight damage increase, but it helps with consistency and keeping the FMJ's bonus up.

Hey Enel, love the guides so far. One thing I would kinda like to see is maybe talk about the Master Arts and Skills that the class offers as well and talk about their applications with other classes.

Thanks for all the great videos! I have really been enjoying them, as I slowly progress through the game.

Thanks for these guide videos, and so quickly too! Hope you're getting enough rest, but I would love to see Lone Exile soon!

I did notice during my play through that when the AI uses FMJ, they seem to have a big fear of going behind the enemy, even if they are equipped with just fatal barrage and not quickdraw. I suspect it has something to do with the the never miss passive but I’m not sure. It doesn’t matter a whole lot but it seems to only happen with this class

Thanks for the guide! Good to know all the pros and cons about FMJ.

This is definitely one of the most fun classes in the game. I used FMJ quite a lot until mid game. As for ideas for the next class to cover, a Troubadour guide would be appreciated. I would love to see how an optimized one syncs well with Signifier.

Was about to comment on the video that came out if you could do this class I’m really enjoying it a lot already maxed it out on two characters keep up the videos enel

When he said "i have been very lazy" when he was talking about the legendary thermo headgear i actually had a laugh. With all the work you have done for the community with these concise guides, lazy is hardly a word that befits you good sir. Keep up the good work!

Amazing guide as always. On a side note, i just realized yesterday how effective it is to share the skill that increases damage depending on the buffs active on the party between Eunie's and Taion's Ouroboros skill tree. His big rock attack went from 900k damage in my case to almost 3M every time in a chain attack finisher.

This class seemed instantly amazing as soon as I got it, and I know for sure this is the one class my buddy is likely to go for when he plays because he has an obsession with dual gun wielding...and cloaked characters too as a matter of fact. Unrelated but it was a...fun experience, sneaking through lower maktha wildwoods with my lvl 42 party, making my way down to where the superboss is past the gate puzzle and grabbing the special item because they put a climbable wall there and I could tank exactly one hit, abusing the invincibility from landing on a climbable wall.

Been waiting to see this since seeing what Eunie with it could do in Chain Attacks and I can’t wait to try it out

Finished the game 2 nights ago and unlocked all the classes. I love FMJ and even though I Ranked 20 this class with Noah, Mio, and Sena. I found myself having SENA run this class the most compared to the other two.

Dude I just unlocked Gray like 2 hours ago wondering when you would get to FMJ in your class guides. Keep up the great work Enel.

The single reason I've got Eunie being my DPS is this class. I used it, SO MUCH midgame on eunie and taion and it was INSANE seeing Taion casually have 201 tp at one point. it wasn't til I finally went back in early chapter 5- before getting to Cadensia- that I actually got incursor, but FMJ STILL remains one of my fav. classes to control. also Eunie with dual guns is epic. Eunie has the best interactions with the Heroes she has S ranks with

Very insightful guide, thank you ! As for guides, I wonder what's the best setup possible for War Medic

Love the guides Enel, thanks for all your work. Would love to see an in-depth guide for Seraph.

Of course Best Girl Eunie gets S-Rank aptitude for the sickest weapon. On an unrelated note, I love how Gray passive-aggressively suggests the party should eat through running canteen recon.

I recall seeing an accessory that prevents blocking or evasion when canceling arts, which seemed perfect for player-controlled FMJs, unless it only ignores perfect evasion and doesn't help solve natural misses, which is quite possible since I haven't tested it.

"my reaction time is so bad because I'm an RPG player" i felt this in my soul, big same here

Proving once again why Enel is the man when it comes to Xeno info!

I LOVE this class. My endgame team has Taion running FMJ with the smash master art attached to demolition. I’ve been using him to remove ludicrous chunks from the unique monsters in the final dungeon, especially during chain attacks. So much fun!

Another great guid hopefully you do flash fencer next

As the community is still figuring out so many things about this game, it might be nice to make another video at the end of all these individual guides to go over some of the corrections and changes that you would make to your previous builds. Stuff like Ultimate Qigong, or different Master Arts for instance. Or maybe just add a pinned comment. Furthermore, something of a tierlist of the strongest Skills in the game might be nice. There are a bunch of good damage boosting skills, but it's difficult to decide between Fighting Prowess, Critical Strike, Universal Annihilation, Eye for Weak Points, Dynamite Spirit, Ultimate Qigong, et cetera. So a tierlist ranking which skills are best for Attackers, Healers and Defenders would give a great general overview! Keep up the great work, Enel, I've been loving these guides

I've stopped using FMJ for a while since I maxed everyone (lv10) with it, but using FMJ is still by far the most fun I've had in combat. Being able to unload a massive amount of damage and then Dead Set right as aggro switches is so satisfying. I also haven't been able to find any Attacker class that can rack up TP nearly as quickly in chain attacks, since each hit of an art appears to have a chance to generate a bonus TP independently, and FMJ has a lot of multi-hit arts. Even if it's not the strongest class, I'll definitely be running it again once I unlock the level cap!

Would love a video on martial artist. Definitely the most fun class to me, and would love to see some of the really powerful strategies on it

A guide to knowing what classes to upgrade first would be nice. Could be 2 videos: a Skill tier list and a Art/Master Art tier list. So we know what are the most useful arts and skills to unlock overall. I can tell by watching other videos that Thaumaturge is very good to get to level 5 and Ogre to level 10 for physical attackers for example. Or Tacticians to level 10 for ether attackers.

Cannot wait for party setups. This guides are great, but require a decent amount of setup from the other 5 members, and we cannot see those right now

-I have to ask, does Ultimate Qigong decrease the physical resistance stat by 0.5x it currently is (aka 50 phys resistance will become 25 and -50 phys resistance will become -25), decrease the enemy's positive physical resistance by 50% (aka 50 phys resistancd will become 25 and -50 will stay at -50), or does it just reduce phys resistance by 50 precentage points? If the first then it's fairly meh for chain attacks as you almost always want Taion's Order for max possible damage, if the second then it's a nice dmg boost but nothing to ride home about, if the last then it is just busted.- Actually nvm I looked on your twitter and saw you did a test with a pierce art and it dealt 50% more damage so it definitely is just -50 percentage points. Man that is stupid broken

I don't expect a guide on it soon but a detailed guide on the 2nd post game class would be helpful. I'm not sure how the elements work and would love a guide!

bullet symphony is such a sick skill. really cool concept for a class

Yoooo new vid! Could we see incursor next?

I like this class, I love multi hit attacks and so this delivers pretty well.

Btw, I was playing around with FMJ and I found that Frenzied combo from martial artist + fatal barrage + mob fights = infinite art cancels & really fast talent art buildup

@brendonjones8996

Жыл бұрын

It is the point where they enter the enrage state. If you lower their health to that point they become enraged and change their attacks and/or AI.

A true cheese setup I found for FMJ is to run as much crit rate as possible with eye for weak points for the 100% boost to crit rate and crit rate up accessories, frenzied combo since the recharge on that is based off hits rather than the art itself (meaning if all hits of demolition are crits you get to use it again immediately,) then pairing it with the accessory that gives +50% recharge speed as well as someone running Troubadour for the fast recharge field. Pairing all of that with master arts like wide slash and jackal claw and having quickdraw set as one of the class arts for full guaranteed evasion with fusion arts was really funny. I only classify it as cheese though because it basically means you stay in front of the enemy you’re fighting at all times and the damage is not that great, but it’s super funny watching enemies try to hit he and failing all the time. Love the guide though, keep up the great work! I’d love to hear more of your thoughts on lone exile next since it’s my personal favorite tank class

Hey enel what do you think of the story in XC3? will ya be making a review?

Another great vid! Random question to anyone: Power charge - if paired in a fusion art will it apply to itself, or not until the next (fusion) art?

Enel, can you clarify if master arts should match the role type for the best bonuses? I can't tell if picking combo arts make sense, even if they don't match the role of the character, or if I should make sure that all attacker classes use only attacker master arts....?

Could you do an ouroboros video? If you didn't say taions did the most damage I would have assumed it wasn't worth using because it always felt underwhelming to me. Also how do you consistently get the form you want in chain attacks? It feels like no matter which order I pick them in during a chain attack I always get Eunies form.

I was thinking the double strike gem would mitigate the loss of missed shots and make the multiplier build faster but idk if its worth keeping the disperse bloodlust gem. Maybe if I fully intended to dodge manually or had someone else with insane aggro

the bullet sympohony passive skill is stacking based on hits, so after using the fatal barrage, which have more than 10hits, you automatically stack the passive to near full 255%.(if no misses)

I'm chapter 4 and love to play with the FMJ class! Can you do Alexandria's class next? Love to play with big anime sword fighter that crits a lot!

Awesome alert this is awesome and uh this is so freakin cool like awesome !!!!!!!

I was pretty happy using the accessory that boosts accuracy by 5% per miss, up to 50% total.

That seems to synergize well with the passives.

Allow me to say something maybe controversial- Overall is great not because it's Ether or because it's a good ratio, and especially not because of the e. defense debuff- It's the fact that its animation is among the fastest in the game, and with a low cooldown, it makes it probably the fastest art for building up Agnus arts. now if only as you said, we have an ultimate Qigong for Ether...
