for me, gaviota wasn't any help at newties while I was standing behind the rope, but now when I train on the top, bottom, or below the rope, it's a LOT of help.. sometimes adding on a total of around 21k damage (though usually only 7-14k) depending on the number of monsters it hits. and if you know how to time it correctly, it won't hurt your DPM at all because you can cast it while using triple fire. that's the cool thing about gunslingers.. you really have to know the class and practice to get your best EXP.
about the whole burner v. torpedo thing.. I still don't think it's worth it lol. but let's agree to disagree?
Lol, the server i played had it so gaviota was 1000x better than octo since you didn't have to recast it and it's range was MUCH smaller than the real thing so it attacked a lot more. I still went with the normal build leaving it at 15 but i remember it's damage easily doubling octos on a hit by hit basis. (which would be 4500-5000, pretty stable actually) I never got it to max obviously but i probably saw another captain colleague of mine with maxed gaviota, but can't remember his damage. xD
Hmm...was that 21k per minute? Lol, that's even worse than i thought. xD Anyway, i know since there's a time difference and all you can't really party at newties that well but when do you think it would be possible to do that? Do you think gaviota would allow you to be effective faster? Now that i think about it, would it matter that much for GMS at the moment whether or not gaviota would be effective? We don't have the newtie mini dungeon yet, so finding a channel to solo is near impossible in my server and if you actually get one you'll probably be KSed out within the hour. >_> Meaning you're probably stuck at anywhere in CWK or kents where mobbing happens constantly. xD That casting during TF i didn't know though, couldn't do that when i played. O_o
Yeah, they're both good skills regardless of what we think so we'll settle on that. :3
