Hey guys, I want to know how its like playing as an Aran. I've been thinking of making one! I know Aran's are easy to train, they have good damage, good skills, and w/e else you can name. But in the end are they really worth making? Like for bossing, is there HP good "enough", ect. ect... Leave your comments, video or w/e you can, to inspire me(:

1-50 is a breeze. 51-64 takes a little longer. 65-70 is fast. You may have some hand problems.

I love my Aran so far. I was hitting the damage cap at level 120 with Combo Fenrir on fire monsters. Sadly Arans are quite useless in big bang, as they're projected to be second last on the DPM meters. (Below mages, really...?)

aran is slow with speed but has godly damage, 1st job skills are..... meh, 2nd job skills are pretty decent but not fun, 3rd job skills is very fun with more buffs, 4th job skills (no words because of too much epicness)

Guys, you know how it shows that Aran's are like 2nd to last on the DPS or w/e chart for Big Bang. Then how come, when i watch Youtube videos of "average funded" Aran's there damage is crazy high? Hm, makes me wonder... Also, i thought any job can be strong? That Big Bang was suppose to be a patch to "balance the jobs" But isn't, the main thing based on equipment to be the strongest?

The DPM chart also adds in Final Blow which is a bit slower, and they aren't considering the critical along with the combo buff at 100 combos. Regardless arans are fun and very good in mobbing and bossing. The only issue is their HP but that's not much of a problem since bossing more than likely has HB.

I like the massive melee range they have it craps all over any of the other warrior classes

Arans are good and can be called a "semi-long" ranged class. Although their hp is low for a warrior, they have a better critical (percentagewise), a great mobbing ability, a healing ability (Hp must be able to withstand several hits for this to be much effect). And Firetruck the DPM charts, can any other class mob 12 monsters with the normal attack? Can any other warrior class attack as quickly? Can any other class have a more effective booster (+3 not +2)? After the big bang: Aran combo skills (smash, fenrir, tempest) take a big hit, expecially tempest, with half the possible damage. Aran skills (triple swing, full swing, overswing, final blow, etc) get a slight boost. Oh, and according to descriptions, tempest still holds godly damage, with an instakill on all non-boss monsters (yes, think of hitting above limit cap on multiple monsters anywhere on the screen).
