The two characters are recommended for Medic Gunners because of their high Healing Power stat. Though not as recommended as the two characters above, Noah also makes a decent candidate as a Medic Gunner.

Group HealGroup Heal Healing AOE around User None
Power RingPower Ring Set Field AOE around User Field range of effect - small

As a Healer, your role is mainly as support for the different Attackers and Defenders in your party. The best arts for Medic Gunners either heal or increase the stats of several allies at once.

Myopic Screen is also useful as your one offensive Art, which also allows you to execute combos. However, if your other characters are already using it as a Master Art, you can switch it out for Vortex.

For Master Arts, it is recommended to use Arts that grant buffs or healing to your allies over a wider area, or Ether Attacks that inflict serious debuffs on your enemies. If you plan to use Ring o' Roses along with Power Ring, you'll need to use All About Support as a Master Skill.

Once you reach the Post Game and gain access to Aqua Mind, it can replace some of your other Master Arts.

Rank 20 Master Arts

Since the Talent Art of Medic Gunners does not provide instant healing and has a limited area of effect, it may be best to replace it with the Soulfire Master Art when it becomes available. The Art not only heals all allies, but also damages enemies and decreases their Attack.

Best Accessories for Medic Gunner Builds

As mentioned previously, Healing Arts tend to have high aggro values, so accessories that reduce it are ideal for Healers. The rest of your team can also benefit from accessories that boost the amount of HP healed by their Arts.

Myopic Screen, one of the recommended Combat Arts in the class, inflicts Daze, so increasing its duration is also a recommended.
