And as for being not useful, hm...I rather play for myself and have my own fun using 3-4 active attacking skills (Blast, ACB, Rush, Magnet) while training instead of being a leech provider who spams the same skill and at costs 10 times more.
Sure AMs level faster and do more damage, but I still have more fun and get more kick out of the game. With a bit of the weapon boost that I obtained now (143 atk Carabella), I'm easily as strong as many Heros out there of my level at bosses even non-elementally weak. There was really no reason for you to direct that kind of comment at me. My main being a Paladin is entirely irrelevant to your post and this entire argument.
And isn't it ironic that you like to feel useful, yet you picked an AM? And your friend pretty much implied that you were useless at Zak being an AM? Hm...you can say that you're useful in training, but I personally wouldn't like to be begged for leech and be used by people - makes me feel like an object and not a person. =S
I have a 150 Lukless Bishop with Ele Wand - taken and asked to HT, Zak, w/e, and I feel very useful and also used. That's part of why I quit it; there was only the occassional times when I find someone who really needed a helping hand or I had the heart to just help out. It was also a bore teleing around and doing the same Genning at Skeles all day. I'm sorry to hear that you want to feel that way. But oh well, to each his own~
I know what you mean and all but, the post was sort of useful. It was directed toward the argumentative discussion (Debate more or less) but, that's not my point. I don't really know my point, posting 12 hours later, I forgot.
I never feel like an object from beggars wanting leech. In fact, it's not really a problem because I'm not a bishop and I only sell leech at harps for 4hours, once one day and once another, just to get some money when I'm poor. (Like once every month or so) Also, the training speed isn't why I made a mage, as I said in my post, that video of that arch mage was why. That's the real use of the elemental weapons, they're only wanted alot now because of NLC. It made it possible to spam ultimates all day instead of partying like other versions, and pre-4th job: himes, squids, vikings, gobies, and grims. Like I said in my post, all I want is the elemental benefits towards the mages, if we got the 125%/110% boosts, I'd be satisfied.
