Logic to all 4th job skills: 99999 damage is the max per hit with a few exceptions. Therefore, skills that hit multiple times are always the best in the end because 2 hits of 50000 = 100000 damage from one skill, which the powerful single strike 99999 is unable to attain. This is the logic people use in saying Spear DK > PADK, this is the logic people use when they say NL > Archmage, etc. Simple fact of the matter is that ultimately, it comes down to what hits more than once.
As for WHEN Brandish becomes more powerful, people are saying level 10, but I have a few questions. First, AC has a percentage chance of not using up the combo orbs when using Panic or Coma, right? How high is that percentage? Because if you go AC first before Brandish, you could semi spam Coma/ Panic (As in, use them repeatedly instead of charging) which would be far superior to Brandish until you're hitting much higher numbers. This would likely be ideal for mobbier maps such as himes, because Coma hits 6 while Brandish only hits 3. I'm no Hero expert, hell, I play a page, but this is just me analyzing what I thnk I know.
