Db to Nl questions

Hey guys, lately I've been contemplating switching classes from DB to NL and I was curious about a few things, so if you guys could clear them up for me that would be great!
-Would my self buffed range drop or increase?
-How much would I hit per line on bosses if atm I'm hitting 12m/line on bosses as a DB
-How many sets of stars do you NL's usually run with? And do you run with full balanced furies or do you have like a few fury sets and the rest are flame stars or something?

Thanks in advance for your help~

EDIT: One more question, does anyone know what my dojo time would be if I was hitting 15m per line?

I carry 8 furies and 4 white gold, can't answer too much about the range. I did switch my NL to a DB for a day (HATED IT) and the range was about half... Didn't check the damage but it was a lot less. (Albeit, I didn't know you had to charge FC)
Also my dagger/katara for DB were clean while my claw/secondary were pretty well off...

Okay so the idea I'm getting is that I'll hit more damage and my range would also increase. And also @fun2killu my weapon would probably be a 200+ attack 115% boss fafnir claw.

EDIT: Its 12m/line with FC so that means my damage would be around the same with DB hmm... Now I don't know if its worth the change haha
Also does anyone know what my dojo time would be if I was hitting 15m/line with quad?

I did the same thing and:
NL clean and buffed is way higher than Dual Blades
If you're doing 12m without FC on bosses, it's probably 15m~20m as an NL with quad star
I had 2 furies, 1 flame star, and 1 set of Illbies incase. The more damage you do though, the less stars you need.

12m line with what, 220% pb?
im assumining you're counting with FC on
ie 352% a line
so you'd hit about the same, a litte more tho
if 12m w/o fc your looking at nearly double
probly 20m/line

NL has a much higher weapon multiplier, so unless you had a wicked atk katara, range would increase

no idea on the stars tho haha

do your weapons and such transfer over as well?

if not, then it all depends what kind of weapon you get.

Range would probably increase.
More damage per line as a NL, but fewer lines overall.
I run with 3 sets of Furies, and with Shadow Stars they already last forever. Flame stars are 1 attack below and have about 2k per set iirc, so they're a good alternative.

Lol are you asking the average NL or the extremely funded ones? The average NL doesn't carry around Balanced furies, and certainly not more than 1 set, which is plenty for multiple boss runs tbh I personally carry 5-6 sets of stars, ranging from +20 att paper airplanes (new addition XD) to the +28 att white/gold stars and that is way mroe than enough. I almost always find myself recharging before even getting to my white gold set unless I go multiple days w/out recharging and find myself at gollux whose merchants can't recharge any of my stars.

IDK how many or how strong of self buffs DB have so I can't answer your buff question, but NL have a buff that adds 30 att, and our first hyper adds 30 att when you use it for 60 extra att when buffed, and 2 of our skills give PDR and %Boss respectively
