@ Locked and Lilinet.
I have 1 point in dragon's breath and never ever use it. Total waste. I added it thinking it'd be nice to help mob but it's a waste of an sp.
184-120 = 64 * 3 = 192 + 3 = 195
195 - 30 Hurricane, 165
165 - 30 AFA, 135
135 - 30 SE, 105
105 - 30 SL: Phoenix, 75
75 - 30 BE, 45
45 - 29 MW, 16
16 - 10 Marksmanship, 6
Here's where I get stuck. Firstly, I don't care at all about Ult.Inferno. It does great damage, sure, but how many mobs have to be in the group before it has higher dpm than Hurricane + AFA? It's like 4+ right? To me, that's not worth 10 sp, even at 184. So that is out of the question.
I need at least one point in Hero's Will. It breaks sed and it breaks pot lock, that's invaluable to me.
6 - 1 Will, 5
That leaves me with Puppet or Illusion Step. I'm leaning pretty heavily toward Illusion Step for the exclusive reason that I believe the extra 45 dex will have my %dex applied to it. If so, it becomes 95. Which is like 3k range for me, and I want that. The evasion would be nice but since it's not like shadow shifter, it takes the back seat to the possibility of so much dex.
Puppet, on the other hand, has pros and cons. Pros: GOBS of hp. Cons: Attacks and can kill low level monsters. I think the issue that will make or break this decision for me is if Elite Puppet pulls agg, even if being attacked by party members, even if I don't hit the monster. If so, then i'll get it, probably. However, if it it just acts like my current puppet, that loses agg when attacked by someone else, and doesn't pull agg without my first attacking, and then setting it, then the con actually outweighs the pro. Here's why, when i'm killing a boss like grandpa, I don't want my puppet killing the little mobs and thus having them respawn in front of me while i'll killing grandpa. I grandpa daily so that'd be a bit of frustration.
Honestly I don't know which one to go for. While EP is only 15 points, it doesn't actually boost up my atk. However, going IS would be a commitment to that path, and i'd be committed until it's maxed. Meh, any insight?
