COR, you really don't pull with COR.

Glad someone said it. It CAN pull, but its far from efficient. If you are going to then use Darts and stand around because tbh, you cant do a lot more. A peacemaker will help, but its still not as efficient as a BRD puller. In fact just level BRD if this is what you want to do lol.

I love playing my COR in merit, /NIN and Joytoy/Merc Kris is a hellavalotta fun.

For people saying that its not a DD, my Slug shot is a base hit of 891 with no chaos roll or any attack songs and using sole sushi at point blank range. By base hit I mean this is the number I see hitting over and over again, nothing ever lower. (please note this is bird camp figures, but still anyone who's DD'd there will know this is more than respectable)

With that weapon combo its actually better to have a lower WS damage than to lose the 1-2 attack round by backing off to outside melee range for a sweet spot as your hitting 2-5 times per round. The TP gain is insanely fast. Recommend 4 merits in Dagger and 8 in Sword though.

No one has to believe me, IDC if you dont tbh, but Im not looking for a flame war.

My 10p worth on COR anyway, and if youve got the Gil for it to shoot for TP until you get a multi hitting weapon, I think you'll find its an amazing job to level.

When speaking to people about COR I often say "Its not Support, its enhancing" theres a difference. Since a COR doesnt stand about picking their nose while waiting for the rolls to cool down, they are in with the action (Or I certainly was). Of course you will find a lot of COR/WHMs who WILL do this, basically pretending to be BRDs cos they dont want to fork out the gil to level it to its potential. If they do that in a pty im in I will rep them with a BRD.

RNG is fun as mess.

If you lvl WHM you will never come as another job.... ever.

Truefax. I would definitely level RNG if I could but unfortunately I'm stuck in the WHM chasm for eternity.

I don't know, I have WHM and I never come as it. Then again I would rather come BLU, but that doesn't happen either. :/

In addition to Hav's post-- COR/DNCing in merits is a lot of fun, and you can easily main heal with a merc or joytoy. I'm not 75 yet, but you can easily pull this off starting at 70 with gear, merits and food. I still need to cap marks (/cry) so I haven't yet had the experience of COR/NIN Wsing or COR/WAR. It's a really great versatile job though--you can play it how you like, and generally you don't have to pull.

To the OP, I see you have BLM and RDM, and a PLD that has some lvls on it. I'd say lvl a DD job like DRK, SAM or RNG (DRG is nice too, but that bird just adds TP) You will be more versatile and useful to groups and event shells. By now, most groups have a dedicated PLD and a back up PLD and a PLD that wants to be main PLD and so on and so on. Having a good mage job like BLM or WHM and a good DD job really makes you extra useful for end game and events.

Main heal is a bit of an overstatement (but even if they could, you'd still want a mage) but I do enjoy this job combo for Bird camp for the extra erase to be available on wivre for attack down

^ Good advice.

I would, if following this advice and you dont want to do COR, Choose SAM, keep that polearm capped and start working towards a Tomoe :)

Dont pick one.
Just quit.
You'll get ranted on everything by everyone besides a few selected people in the game.

/sorry bow.

It's fine unless you're chaining wivre. And you always need an inside or outside haster, did this today as main heal with a 54RDM haste ***. D:

Hmm, that's a hard one because I have RNG, SAM, & COR and they probably would be my top 3 picks because they are fun.
I'd say RNG though because during lvling you're always "Ooooo-ing" at the dmg. COR was fun leveling and fun in merits, but it absolutely sucks in endgame events; so boring. Sometimes makes me hate the job!
SAM if you want something useful for almost everything and having fun at the same time. :] Ahh, I love SAM!
Sorry, I didn't help but maybe it'll give you an idea.

Puppetmaster - [...] but is unfortunately way too limited in its roles end-game, and on that basis, this is not a job for you if you want one which is "highly usable in endgame".

In a nutshell: No.

COR is very cool too. If you have the equip you can do pretty awesome stuff with it. I saw several CORs on Kujata that kept us buffed, pulled the mobs and were #1 on DMG .... AT THE SAME TIME Oo

tbh if anything then COR or PUP.. seriously who wants to level something that over 7000 ppl on your server already have? Way too boring.
