Editing How to Ranger Basically (section)

===[[Abilities#HP Absorb |HP]] / [[Abilities#PP Absorb | PP Absorb]]===
Since '''Perfect Guard''' is relatively easier on Ranger, using the absorb abilities to make '''Perfect Guard''' even more effective is not a bad idea. The amount of HP gained (15%) isn't amazing (for reference, Monomates restore 33% HP), but can still be a big help during longer boss fights or restoring chip damage. On the other hand, the amount of PP gained from PP absorb is pretty significant (15% translates to 30 with 200 max pp), can trigger multiple times in a couple seconds, and allows the player to recover large amounts of PP without breaking the game-flow. Do note that, since using PP absorb relies on being attacked by enemies, it can't necessarily replace other PP recovery options. It's also not usable with single-hand weapons (except [[Shields]]).
