Quite a good feature if you like Guarding. | Also, if the R-side of Rods is not linked with any Technics, R would allow the player to Guard instead. Quite a good feature if you like Guarding. | ||

'''Wands are primarily used for Chaining, since they can cast significantly faster than Rods.''' It also pairs well with [[R-Mags]] for passive chain during a Strafe Casting spam session. Another popular choice is [[Shields]], which allows Guarding while strafing. Since chainbreaking damage is better off left to Rods, support Technics such as [[Zalure]] is a popular option for {{Triangle}} on Wands. | '''Wands are primarily used for Chaining, since they can cast significantly faster than Rods.'''

'''The biggest problem with Tech-Mags, though, isn't the Tech-Mags themselves, but rather, what to put on the right-hand.''' Right-hand are almost all melee weapons, none of which Forces care about. Save for maybe [[Daggers]] for [[Shisoku Tenkai-zan]] as a travelling PA, or maybe [[Slicers]] in some cases. You can use [[Wands]] too, but in my opinon, at that point you are probably better served by either splitting them up or just use a Rod. | '''The biggest problem with Tech-Mags, though, isn't the Tech-Mags themselves, but rather, what to put on the right-hand.'''

The issue with both Longbows and Ranged Weapons on Force in general, is that they require additional resources to optimize that you wouldn't otherwise need to get. Technics don't miss, so there's no reason for Forces to put any [[Rebirth]] into ACC. However, Longbows not only requires ACC to hit things, but also requires it as a part of its damage, meaning to use Longbows long-term, Forces will have to go out of their way to rebirth for a stat they otherwise would never need. At least Full Charge Shot is incredibly easy to get. | The issue with both Longbows and Ranged Weapons on Force in general, is that they require additional resources to optimize that you wouldn't otherwise need to get.

If your HP is above 33%, and take damage that deals more than 50% of your HP, you will be left with 1 HP. Costs 3 slots from Vanguard Lv8.
