Striker Build

Hold it there, champ. Blast used to suck, but only a little bit. Now that it's spammable it tears through mobs much faster than any skill in a Marauder's arsenal. Blast will be a Striker's main mob skill until Shark Wave.

If I were to make a Striker I'd probably do something like this:

Max HP Increase (Duh.)
1 Corkscrew (Mobbing purposes.)
19 Mastery (Stable damage)
6 Booster
10 Energy Charge
Max Blast
Max Energy Charge
Max Corkscrew
Max Lightning Charge
11 Booster

It's only second job so you can't expect to be "omg am godly!" but Blast will really help. Even as a 166 Buccaneer I still use Blast pretty often.

Woah woah. Marauder's blast is the s'hit. I use it all the time. Striker's blast is not. It'd be amazing if it hit 4 targets with 100% less damage than the original, but it doesn't. It hits 3. That automatically makes it way less worth it, on top of the fact that the skill itself is weaker. SSK is just as good, and the 20 SP dump, even though you're going to max it anyway because it IS still stronger than SSK when maxed, is a pretty big setback. If you're working on energy charge past 50, you'll use blast for not even 10-15 levels.
