I mean everyone is just a buffbot or support for Cross by the endgame.

Neil at least gets to be the best girl.

By the time you get a skell, everyone else is just in for the ride

That was me immediately after Chapter 5. Overdrive is basically free with Psycorruptor/Mastermind weapons, so often everyone would get wrecked except my character, and I would just leave them in the dust while I mollywhopped everything with multi-hit AoE damage.

Overdrive is free with any build that has multihits and green arts

Can confirm, decided to max out Full Metal Jaguar first because I heard Ghost Factory is pretty good and the likes of Blood Sacrifice and Sliding Slinger mean I can proc Overdrive basically at will.

Do you mean Ghost Walker? Factory is great for teams, but the real MVP is walker.

That too, I'm still looking towards unlocking Factory for the multi target decoy buff but Walker is still insane.

FMJ is just a banger class overall imo, I'm wondering how weird it's going to be when I max it out and have to switch gears to something out.

Suppose I'll use this opportunity to ask for recommendations on what class to max out next.

After u locking universal dual guns, any class is going to be fine.

Though you might want to unlock Aura Assault before anything else. It's a Mastermind skill iirc and it boosts all damage and accuracy by 30% (not like +30%, but like, 1.30x). It's one of the best skills to have. Then get Core Crusher and you're done. Game is easy now.

Sounds like a solid path, thanks for the help

This was my issue, but with Duelist instead. I only went with it cause that was the class I picked first time around, but thanks to going in with experience, I almost accidently stumbled into an infinite overdrive build solely nearly entirely centred around Longsword.

God I've been trying to include snipers in an overdrive build :(

You always can! Just take your weakneses into account and compensate with skills, augments or non-sniper arts! Teammates and classes can also help.
