Ranger

From Ethene
A Ranger of the Weddie race.

The Ranger (RNG) (レンジャー) is a unique nature-themed support vocation. They have access to Bows, Boomerangs, Axe, and unique skills for Claws. their exclusive skill tree is Ruggedness (サバイバル Survival). Their main objective is to protect the party from breath-based attacks with buff spells like Insulate or Insulatle, at higher levels they can even nullify the damage. Rangers also have medium-range attacks with their unique "wolf-summoning" skills. The Ranger's coup-de-grace is Brownie Boost (妖精のポルカ, Yōsei no poruka) which can boost you and your allies' attack and defense, while also granting an HP and MP regeneration effect.

Strategy

During early game, Rangers can help you with a variety of supporting spells like to heal or revive, also buff spells to protect from breath attacks (Insulate line), Dazzle can help you a lot to blind a boss who loves to hit hard. After you get the necessary skills points Mist Me will be one of your go-to skills for every battle, nullifies the first breath attack that hits your party, Dark Fog is another useful AOE skill that can inflict a variety of status effects to a near group of enemies, the downside however it's that you need to get close to them, and finally, Crimson Fog the latest of the Ruggedness Skills can be used at the start of battle, increasing your attack by two levels plus the same effect as "Mist Me". If you're a player who prefer mid-range weapons, Boomerang + Shield will be helpful, especially after getting Double Down that makes easier for enemies to suffer status effects (mix it with Dark Fog), and Revol Slicer will increase the damage dealt to an enemy to 1.5x times.

The "wolf-summoning" skills that were mentioned earlier like Wolf Whistle and Fenrir Attack, are perfect to hit your opponents from far away with multi-hit attacks, damage is based on your Deftness stat ignoring the enemy's defense, and the last of the wolf skills, Cerberus Rondo, adds the same effect as Revol Slicer to the enemy.
