"Trickster - When you use an offensive skill, TP is restored."

My Gun Pirate will only have one offensive skill(Rapid Fire), the rest would include Limit Boost and many Farmer skills. I think its better if I do switch it up with my Shinobi.

Edit:

Oops, posted late. Well, nonetheless, I've figured out my TP dilemma.
And thanks, Scy. Don't think I've said that once yet, how arrogant of me.

I'll never understand primary Farmers.

I kind of wish I could see what was so attractive about their skillset but it's really mediocre >>.

Oh god...I'm extremely confused. T-T

So, I'm going with just one type of weapons, seeing as I'd waste skill points, and I don't want two half-finished categories instead of one complete.
...If you get what I mean.

What weapon should I go with for my Pirate, and why?

Rapier skillset is flat out better than the Gun skillset in my opinion; I'll take Blind or Head Bind over "acting faster." Rapid Fire is a good amount of more damage (+150% over In The Dark, +65% over Hanging) but I used my Pirate more on a "do other things" front so I wanted the ability to Blind, Head Bind, etc.

Edit: I'd like to note Rapiers have a SPD Modifier so the bonus on Quick Draw isn't really that big of a deal. Rapier Pirate will probably go first normally anyway.

I'll also note Rapid Fire is really cheap at only 16 TP when maxed out. 6 TP for 315% Damage isn't bad at all for a Gun Pirate. If you want a better offensive option, Guns is not a bad choice.

So, long story short:
Rapier: Less damage, better utility.
Gun: Better damage, no utility.

Hmm. In the end, Utility>Damage.

I'll go with Rapiers, then.
I think.

Or, should I?
Seeing as my party would be:

Princess, Hoplite, Pirate, Ninja, Zodiac

There aren't really any classes that are even remotely heavy on attacking.

What do you recommend?
