SlugThings Wrote:Since there seems to be some controversy over Driver's long term usefulness, I'll just throw this out there... Driver is an immensely powerful attack regardless of its speed, and is in fact more damaging over time than all skills but Blast, (possibly) Buster, and Intrepid Slash according to JoeTang's chart. I find it extremely useful for killing many mobs across multiple platforms and wholly advise you naysayers to give it a shot before you criticize it. ;P
The fact that I hit level 97 after only two days of playing should be a testament to its usefulness in itself.

Punch Wrote:What's the best leveling Cygnus after Chaos? I'm curious, because I don't know how long I have to train an overpowered DW to 120, before Chaos..

And another thing, is a UE Shadower or Corsair, okay to make?
or will the HP problem hurt them greatly?

Dark Link Wrote:I dunno why people are still concerned with the usefulness of Driver at higher levels. As of right now it's OP as hell, but when Chaos hits, it becomes useless past 4th job.

@Bold, uh...it can't be a testament, because you start at level 50 on your UA. 50 -> 97 can easily be done in 1-2 days anyways lol
Plus leveling is not even that hard anymore when most of the hell levels have been completely washed away from the better exp curve.

Also most of your points have been known for months now lol

Xiger Wrote:A Striker, would be the best bet for you, that is after Chaos. Before Chaos, SoulMasters tend to beat out a Striker, since they have that OPed move called Soul Driver.

Around 300~500 + HP lost, no biggy, this can be fixed using HP pots made from Alchemy, that and Decent HB. And also, HP rings made from JewelCraft, so it's not really of a problem.

Devil Wrote:I think you're mixing up two skills here.

Wind Piercing = 700% dmg * 3 for UA Archers
Storm Break = 2nd Job knockback skill for Wind Archers

All that Wind Piercing is, is a heavy 700% damage attack (x3 monsters), which is kind of slowish (1080ms). But since it's 700% damage, it has the best potential to knockback bosses that require high knockback damage.

Punch Wrote:But isn't Chaos in the Summer? So, I have like a month or two to get a Cygnus to 120.. in the case, shouldn't I just choose a DW since I have enough time?
Plus, I'll be making a UA Thief/Pirate, so I wouldn't wanna make a Thief/Pirate Cygnus
