【PSO2NGS】OUTDATED Gunner Stuff | Why do people sleep on Infinite Ricochet?

I feel like I don't see enough people making good use of this PA. Everyone I meet tends to stick to Aimless Rain and Bullet Rave, so I figured I would try to get more people into using Infinite Ricochet.

Also off topic but stylish onslaught spam does stun lock mobs like gororons and pettas if you hit their core
It’s over niche but I used to do that a lot back in time in trinitas 1 high modes 4players
NGS does have a ton of little cool features

People sleep on infinite ricochet because it is still more situational than the other two PA. I'm pretty sure this is deliberate design, in the situations that ricochet is good then if you use it you will get better results. Otherwise you will get worse results. The devs wanted to reward you for using the all the PAs in the right situation. But for most casual players, its quite easy to ignore ricochet.
Bullet Rave has long range and is hitscan (or at least it feels like it is hitscan). Ricochet has limited range and can't follow your target if they move around.
Aimless rain is generally easier to use for mobbing but technically infinite ricochet is superior in many cases. For stuff like PSE farming or LTQ tho aimless rain spam is kind of the way to go, the fact that you don't need to aim it and can move during the first half makes it very convenient.

I agree. The other PAs are extremely comfy and all of them have their purpose, but I just sort of felt like nobody used IR. So I wanted to give people some ideas.

[@HideNLooT]

@@iCYpIE thank you for the video, it's very well made. I needed this piece of knowledge. Now I just need to slowly get used to integrating it more into my rotations when it makes sense.

[@iCYpIE]

just figured id post a comment here after the recent buff. IR now does EVEN MORE damage conpared to 3/4 BR. So keep using it :3

[@undeXIm]

SR was such a fresh add to gunner I loved it and how it improved GU toolbox and gameplay variety
Specially in lot of tanky mobs/boss situations like roaming gigs patrol where using TPS mode is so satisfying
And it’s always a very good ~in between~two pa move for mobility/reach/timing situations

[@iCYpIE]

IR is such a beast when fighting those recon gigas lol

[@VnClannad]

Use IR after 3/4 BR to able about to dodge atk coming is also a good optimize if u want to keep build chain speed, and IR is great if u want start the chain when u have really small space to do it before the atk coming too, and in long term, BR + IR is great way to build chain than just spam 1 PA bc pp consumption, mixing BR and IR is good wau to optimize gunner gameplay :D
In CT finisher, even in bossfight, IR is sometime pretty good at the end of combo or at the start if u cant reach to the boss with PB or SO

[@XonYon]

Okay, only use IR until Slayer comes out?? Did I understand correctly?? :D

[@iCYpIE]

IR is the best >:D
all seriousness tho, every PA is good. All situational and do whats comfy and hits the weak point well.

[@cyric2010]

I admit I thought this PA was pretty useless. I'll give it another shot next time I play.

[@Gravesyte]

Welp I know what I'm trying later

[@pridewall]

How bad is it if I just use IR?
The only benefit I see to 3/4 BR is the movement but perhaps I’m just not understanding?

[@frisco5060]

What mission is that with the truckload of hand-headed enemies?

[@iCYpIE]

tis the tower in kvaris. just fall down on purpose. has to be one of my favorite spots in game because it reminds me of CoD zombies lol

[@frommyhighhorse]

is that Ragnarok OST i hear?

[@frommyhighhorse]

@Kanaba Nakamura ahhh nostalgic

[@justinbustamante7206]

i'm literally the only gunner i know that uses it
