What should I main out of these 3?
I've finally decided to move to Scania (most of my friends there) from Windia where I have mained a Phantom. After realizing ill have to restart ALL of my characters, im not sure which one I should spend most of my time.
I really like Phantom... in 4th job, 1st-3rd is terrible but it should go by quickly but I also really like thunder breaker (juat a much as phanphan, maybe slightly more) because of its linking skills, high dps, cheaper equips, and its underrated potential. One of my friends also suggested Luminous because of its damage & mobbing... I made one and lvled it to 125 but I found it kinda meh but are there other reasons to have one? For now im not really looking for an alternative, as they will probably be side players/ mules I guess. I have (at most) about 100-120m worth of items I plan to sell for equips on one of there characters. Im sure somewhere ive answered my own question but I wanna know your thoughts! TY

Phantoms are awesome
It's all personal choice. Lumis are definitely the most powerful and easiest to find, but the others are good as well.
TBs were my favourite class when I quit. They were so flashy and fast, and the aquatic theme is something I find appealing despite my terrible fear of fish
Phantoms kinda need a lot of funding to be pure awesome sauce, and I found Lumis hard to use because of constant switching between light and dark, but Lumis are one of the best mobbers

PREACH THO!
Anyways thanks everyone for replying so quickly. o.o Still haven't decided which one I should main, its actually made it harder but im counting Luminous out (will mule it).
I've been thinking about Night Lord & Dark Knight. Should I consider those even with a Phantom?

Phantoms range can be increased with buffs like cross surge or bless or rage, but after that they have actually don't have too much buffs that further increases their range aside from piere d aria etc. So they need to focus on their equipments much earlier than many classes that can last a bit longer when it comes to bossing. As such to improve your equipments quickly Nx would be required for cubing or at least it is the most efficient way to cube considering there is a limit of cubes in the reward points system. Thus, that's why I said you'll need Nx to increase their range further. This may apply to all classes, but of the 3 phantoms are the proficient bossers and grinders or at least 360. They can act as buffers and yet hit hard enough to boss. Of course if you want to fight end game bosses you'll need a lot more funding. In which Nx will be required.
[quote=wanker]play what you like[/quote]
Yeah but I like Phantom & TB equally
[quote=MerkelsDisk]This is how I would categorize which class you should play:
If you have limited fundings and enjoy grinding: Luminous so that you can farm leafs and gather other goodies
If you want to boss, but lacking funds: Phantom as cross surge can make a big jump in your range and everyone wants that HS at RnJ also SH
If you want to boss, but have a lot of Nx: Phantom still as more Nx will only increase their range further
If you want something challenging, and an underdog: Thunderbreaker - I tell you I made a Thunder breaker prior to chaos patch and got it to lvl 120, and goodness they were hell to train. The more updated version is better, but it's still hard to train them.[/quote]
Interesting way to put it, although I didnt find TB hard to train but what do you mean by phantom being stronger using nx

Lumi has a favorable link skill.
