They only last for 20-30 seconds though. People could try to bot it, I guess, but I haven't seen anyone abuse Phoenix either.

@ndyn
Support octo.

It's a limit of 2 octopus towers, all together 6 octopus.

Limit of 3*. O_o

ndynslvr Wrote:I believe there is a limit of two for octo-turrets.

Support octo lasts 40 seconds if i remember right, so that's 3 turrets max.

They don't last very long though so...O_o

Russt Wrote:Question.
There's no limitation on summoning multiple octo-turrets in the same place, right? So if you're soloing a boss you could lay down three of them right next to it all at once and have them put out 10k+ extra damage a second?

Yup. Though, a single support octo turret can do i think 5k-10k max so it'd be an extra 15k-30k per second.

1st and 2nd will probably be more hellish than an archer's 1st/2nd right?

My god yes.

ThatSkyGuy Wrote:Combine that with Battleship Cannon, Advanced Homing, Gavoita, Elemental Damages, and Rapid Fire, you have yourself a Godly Bossing Class. Plus Air strike. Now I'm starting to think Gunslingers kind off broken in 4th job :/. But they had to go through 1st and 2nd job so its fair.

Rapid fire, gaviota, and elemental advantage a godly bossing class does not make. xD

Battleship Cannon, homing, and onyx apples a godly bossing class makes

Indeed it does.

But they don't shoot once per second, do they?

I put 20k at first, but then thought of that.

I really have no clue. I thought you knew, which is why i said "per second". xD

Why not rapid fire? Its same a hurricane no?

Also aren't some bosses weak to elements?

1) Rapid fire sucks.
2) ....Are you seriously asking me if you should use one of the slowest and arguably weakest mob attacks on a boss?


Ask a Pirate Thread - blitzkrieg - 2008-10-27

a regular third job octopus fires once every 3 seconds. I'd assume support octo would make that twice every 3 seconds, or once per 1.5 seconds.

How will the prices for the knuckle scrolls be, for GMS? Unlike seaMS we didnt have pirate scrolls dropping since like, much earlier this year...

Use Rapid Fire or Triple Fire for the cooldown. Your DPS will take a huge hit, but at least you'll still be doing damage.

how bad is it? and isnt TF thier main skill in 3rd job?:f6:

seeing how good you guys make gunslingers, i just might tranfer into making a gunslinger instead...

Rapid fire doesn't outdamage triple fire until level 8 or 10. I forgot which. You won't have that much until 14x though.

i just thought of this question ... can a viper use fist while in Transform not super but the normal 1 from 3rd job?

No.

after you get 4th job, will you still use shockwave, even if you have level 1 Levi?
Also, how come you dont get level 1 time-reef at level 120? couldnt you get into more boss runs with that?

What does it matter? You cant use Shockwave when you can use Leviathon.... and vice versa

And Shockwave is even better in 4th job because you get Snatch, which allows you to stun while Super Transformed. Critting Shockwaves? Yes please
