Rng and Cor win this update, good thing i have both. TH for RNG, Regain roll for cor, sounds like i'm cor4life now lol. Lets just hope SE doesn't make it a 1 tick regain or something lame ><
1 tick is still decent when stacked with the regain atmas in Abyssea. Even outside Abyssea, 1tp/tick is still better than 0.
I'm a bit skeptical on this...
a RNG TH sounds nice, but the way it's worded... makes it sound like a mob will just drop more of its average drops. As if it wouldn't effect things like R/Ex, etc etc Still... a surprising turn about at this stage in the game. Maybe people will actually say "Hey, get the RNG thats seeking... need more TH here!"

It could mean it'll also increase the rate of chest drops from mobs as well. Ppl will most likely make Rng get the kill shots(for various reasons) more often.
It's for the rangers who solo Lord Ruthven.
Odds are it will work seprately from TH like how (notice how TH1 and 2 are the only job traits with multiple teirs that are seperated in the menu) also I don't know why people think this is totally uncalled for. Rangers would often serve as hunters and be skilled at skinning and cleaning their prey so if this ups the drop rate of synth mat type items it makes perfect sense... People argue that tripple shot would make more sense for rng then cor but the concept behind hexaguns (cor only) is that they would be able to fire multiple rounds at once which we havn't seen yet.
Sounds pretty sweet to me. I know people will say, oh but I bet rngs wish they got something to increase their damage instead of TH. Honestly, if they increase the damage a rng can do any further, the job would be more broken than it already is. I welcome this odd job ability and look forward to putting it to use in my af3 endeavors!
No, RNG/THF already will have TH3 (inside abyssea, which is all we care about now anyway). This looks more like it will FORCE a drop. Just because you have TH on a mob, doesnt mean something will drop. TH just means more slots are open for drops to possibly drop into.
This would make camping Vali's bow much, much better now... if it wasnt completely obsolete. Should make stuff like farming Organs in sea a lot better. Since they don't drop much other than Organs/Tissues, but with a horridly low drop rate, this could be a major win there. Phoenix.Smileybone

Regain tics will probably imitate evoker's roll. so with rng/thf giving TH2, tarutaru sash Th+1, atma with TH +1 and now Bounty shot, that gives rng a total of TH+5.
"increase rate of getting an item drop".
isn't treasure hunter only increasing the chance of getting more items? Get a THF and a RNG together could be a really nice combo. Like how many licks it takes to get to a tootsie pop; the world may never know D:
Regradless on how it worth SE just took the only thing THF had.
2 years from NOW SE says new level cap 200! All jobs get all ablities! at 200! When it comes to treasure hunter in any shape or form, use children's logic: If one is good, more must be better!

THF can be a good DD if they aren't gimp and don't only view themselves as a TH *** <_< Alexander.Kewitt said: Regradless on how it worth SE just took the only thing THF had. The !! weakness triggering turned acquiring drops from TH's shitty behind the scenes crapshoot to an actual tactical endeavor. *** TH. SE has been handing it out like candy since thief knife dropped to 50k, and this new JA is no different. It's a random attempt to make people dust off their RNGs. So now, count them up folks, TH5 on THF with JT/Relic/AF3, and now up to TH7 with the atma and this RNG JA. I prefer staggering.

Nice ability for the job, dunno why they got it but still very nice way to contribute to item farming in any situation.
