I've tried using mines at different places for training. Enemies generally spawn too slow when a WH is running around pillaging the whole map and dropping mines. The mines tend to explode before the enemies spawn again. And in the off chance that they do get hit by the mines, it tends to be more disruptive since it aggros the enemies toward you. Hardly worth maxing in my opinion. Roar and Swallow are much more useful for several reasons.
- Roar is 100% stun. It's a decent rage KB. Provided that you don't miss of course.
- Roar has good synergy with Swipes. Roar first then swipe. It not only bunches up a group of enemies, but prevents them from running into you as you swipe at them negating the HP recovery effect.
- Roar tends to send enemies as far back as Wild Trap from casting location. Roar and then throw a wild trap. Wild trap will be able to strike all of the enemies bunched up, too.
- Swallow is 100% instant kill. It provides many useful buffs outside of that worthless MaxMP buff.
- Swallow goes through walls that strafe and triple shot can't hit. Ricochet also goes through walls, but it's not that great of an attack for 1v1. Swallow, on the other hand, downright kills the enemy in 1v1.
This is just my take on the skills.
