Advantages & Disadvantages of your job.

Lvl 179 Lunchbox/RK Hero

+ Best Solo Bossing Class in the game
+ Highest DPS of any Melee
+ Only warrior job that can surpass a BM/NL in DPS
+ Unlike range jobs, also has the advantage of 3 hitting with Brandish.
+ Stance. No wasted time in between attacks getting back to a spot.
+ Maple Shields/Shield W. Att provide unique attk boost.
+ Maxed Rush basically takes away any speed defeciency the job had.
+ High HP. Nothing fazes me. Achilles. Tank.
+ Built in Atk Potter (Enrage/Rage).
+ Fast attacks.
+ Flashy 99ks!
+ Never have to rely on anyone in boss fights aka "HB or I die" or "SE my damage sucks! or "apples i have alchemist!".
+ Weapons don't require your secondary stat (i.e. Dex to wear X equip)


- Not able to kill certain bosses due to high avoid (The Boss etc)
- A lot of skills to recast! (Combo/Stance/Booster/Power Guard/MW)
- Almost always underestimated in boss runs.


I can't really think of negatives to the job. I've played pretty much every single job in the game at one point and I always found Heros have the best balance of attack, reliability and stamina.
