It replaces Arrow Bomb in 95% of the situations you used to use Arrow Bomb in 2nd job. I don't know why that seems useless. Maybe Hurricane might look flashier when taking down large mobs, but Inferno is still the superior skill to use.
Oh, and something I neglected to mention thus far. Dragon Breath makes Inferno even better than it was in 3rd job, because setting up mobs becomes much easier. A typical combo I use at Peak is:
Dragon Breath ->
Puppet <-
Inferno until dead ->
And if you're fighting mobs that don't have long ranged attacks, like Skelegons, you don't even need that Puppet.
spiritrival Wrote:Mounts only work for long-ish distances. However, you'll end up bumping into newly spawned monsters in the way and it takes about 2 seconds to mount and dismount. Mounts do not cover for passive speed.Well, we're archers. How often do you find yourself needing to move short distances while attacking? And why do you need a lot of speed if you're not going to move long distances?
