Sharpshot frame has a retardedly-low shooting rate.
The damage is puts out is retardedly high though. especially during the lower levels when you can mess around and stack 3 Fire Maneuvers with Flame Holder for Arcuballista of dooooooom.
Yeah this little guy is hitting 30 damage per ranged attack at LV13 when my fists only do about 7-10 each. It's not that I'm not impressed with the damage, just expected it to be a lot faster.
Would you consider it logical to forego Barrage Turbine and just stack Wind Maneuvers for Drum Magazine? Is the hit to Accuracy sizeable?
It's pretty noticeable in my opinion but Most of my messing around with it was at higher levels. Remember that melee damage is also in there, really shouldn't need to make his ranged attacks any faster.
But with three maneuvers, it's almost double the ranged attack rate. Gotta admit I'd love to be able to do that on RNG.
I'm not gonna stop you from messing with it of course.
Another thing is stacking 3 of the same element is not often done on PUP, especially on a DD puppet. A cycle is usually kept with no more than 2 of one element (Thunder Wind Thunder is common as is Fire Wind Thunder) and is even more risky at lower levels since you can overload so easily with only a Buffoon's Collar.
