You could've been attacking that monster for 10 seconds already and just need 1 more hit to kill it. I'd rather not have to take the risk of having to waste another 2 seconds attacking before moving on to the next monster. Also, if you're training on things you can kill in 2 or 3 hits. With a single hit skill, you could hit low every time and take 3 hits to kill the monster. With a multi hit skill, the chance of this happening is much lower because you get more hits, so you're more likely to kill the monster in just 2 hits, which can save a lot of time training.
Thing is this whole "problem" has been solved way way back with Arrow Blow vs Double Shot, Double Stab vs Savage Blow and maybe some other combination of skills I've forgotten because it's freaking years ago. I believe the conclusion back then was that multi hit skills are more practical than single hit one. Can we go back to discussing the actual patch now?
