Re: No K-Club RNG without Heavy DD geared discussion from page 1 -

My brother actually saved up for K-club over the course of like 1.5 years or something, and also got a loan from a friend to buy it.

At the time he bought it, his only jobs at ML were THF, RNG, RDM, and GEO across two characters. His go to style of play was to dual box his RNG and Idris GEO with his friend's PLD, COR, WHM tri-box.

The coolest thing they ever did(that I heard about) was "duo" H-Unlock in Sortie between their multi-box setups without any Odyssey sets. Just AF+3, Relic+3, and I think some of the Empy+2 was out then? Mixed with the best HQ Cursed gear at the time, too.

And he pretty much stuck to that playstyle while very slowly building other jobs gearsets. Course his friend quit due to IRL reasons, so I had to break him out of his loner shell a bit last year. Got him in on a more regular Sortie group that we built up over last year.

Nowadays he's added... DNC, NIN, COR, and almost RUN to his repertoire. He's working on Monk and GEO again next(DRG is in the mix as he has an R15 Ryunohige, it's just very low priority for him, and he didn't AGIII it until December last year), so that his old main can fill-in any time for his new main (He's a weirdo and leveled his DNC on his non-main, thus creating an issue where the only way we could fit his old main into the Sortie runs once we finally had 6/6 members was on COR when we have an absentee).

TL;DR - Weirdo RNG mains do exist. Something something Pariah Contrarians. Something something, playerbase too set in formulaic play. Something something, won't play what he doesn't like.

This is the problem, all it offers is SAVA GO BRRRRRRRRRRRRR

If you mean this is all RNG offers for seg runs in particular, ok, sure. But RNG brings just as much to the table as SAM does, on par physical damage output, and when you can use it, True Flight and Hot Shot slap as well, and one thing RNG can do that SAM can't is magic AOE with Aeolian. Bounty Shot and Shadowbind also offer utility SAM doesn't have either.

I get Klub is a crazy barrier to entry to compete with an above average Doji SAM, but I farmed mine and didn't pay a billion gil for it.

There is only maybe one thing that makes me seethe more than a melee-kclub-savage-blade-Ranger.

They're not called rangers because they attack from range. It's because they range around scouting and hunting.

Sorry for picking nits but there it is.
