It actually works out better for me if we have fewer people because I'm only using a medium-end laptop to play and it runs smoothly, plus our regular timeslot is so late that most people are asleep.
It's really too bad that Impeccable Memory has a cooldown because a Phantom with lesser range could still provide tons of utility by cycling through skills. Since you have a Bishop you'll be much more handy than Phantoms are currently unless your group has a Bishop and needs a different buff like HB/SE. It's worth a whirl though if you're interested, I still think anyone really looking to enjoy the best of everything without spending too much can do no better than a Phantom!
P/s: My range is only 75k. T_T I estimate I'll be at about 78k by the time I'm at level 200 which is when I'll be aiming for party runs to help me gain some more experience. I also thought initially that I'd make my Bishop my sub-main but that went out the window once I realized I'd still be paying too much for equips to keep anything other than one main.
Do you dc often? I know since kaisers have been around with their hyperskills, I dc constantly at higher bosses like cht and cpb. Recently i went to the game settings and set the skill effects on the lowest (but graphics being high), and haven't had boss dcing issues since, so you may want to play around with that.
I agree! That is one thing that irks me when I'm training my phantom and people ask me to switch buffs, and they forgot that there's a cooldown between them and get angry at me for not buffing right away
My group is constantly in need of Phantoms for stealing dr, mostly; that, and demonslayers to bind/angelic busters for their orb skill. Surprisingly the guild has a good amount of warriors so usually crashing/hb isn't an issue. Me and another bishop are pretty much their preference when it comes to runs just due to the fact that we know the order of things/vent info/etc.
That is not a bad range. My range would be like, 20-30k if I hadn't psok'd my boyfriends cane and hat over. Not to mention, I do believe % luk is still the highest in demand? Maybe not, but I know it's anything but cheap ;-; I really don't understand how people can fund more than one main to be godly. I can't. Maybe that's why I don't like playing any other class. I've built up my bishop, and don't want to start building up something else haha.
