Notes

  • Movement type: NOT FOUND. Ranger is absent from Pocket Tactics' own Advanced-tier type table even though it lists the class's abilities correctly elsewhere in the same source pass -- a gap in that source, not a contradiction. No character in Game8's Best Classes guide is recommended into Ranger -- recorded as a gap.
