Double/Triple/Dual Wield Questions

[stigger]

Okay.. im still harsh confused about this one, hopefully someone who has actually been able to use/try these combos, please tell me.

If i'm a main Thief, and I have my triple attack, how does that stack with a Wars' dual-attack, or a ninjas dual-wield.

#1 - Does triple-attack stack with dual-attack to give a maximum of 6x attacks, or does it jsut add 2+ attacks to one, or 1+ attack to other attcks?

#2 - Sneak + Trick + Dual-wield. Does it use the sneak attack for both weapons? Or does it just do a sneak-attack for one weapon and hit normally for the other weapon?

#3 - I hear that Ninjas cost lots of $$$ to maintain. That sucks. I know this isn't a question, but i thought i'd jsut note that.

#4 - There are lots of changes goin around for Thieves soon (apparently their sneak..etc.. is really damn powerful). Was wondering if its good to stay as a thief with war or ninja sub, or to go all-out war with a powerful weapon (ie - Scythe/great sword) and thief as sub.

#1 - i am not sure not high enough to test it out.

#2 - Sneak attack+Trick only works on first hit so only one of the weapons not both.

#3 - They cost alot almost as much as ranger.

#4 - Thief will still be good after patch all patch is doing is nerfing yokodama which is Sneak+trick from side of mob. Fuidama will still work and does same damage as yokodama just need to do it from back so need a second tank that can take few hits which most groups have anyway. If you enjoy thief stay with it they will still be good after patch.

Well you dont NEED a second tank, its just a little harder to do with one tank.

Can you explain this plz? just curious.. lets say you are going out with a friend to hun.. so you have you and ur friend in the pt (totally 2persons), how would you do sneak+trick?

with yokodama being removed, 1 tank won't be enough for thf to do trick/sneka anymore ; / well you have 2 more days to enjoy your yokodama by the way.

to the original questions...

1. double attack and triple attack won't apply to the same swing.
if you /warrior, your attack will have chance to be either double or triple. only 1 of them
if you /ninja, you're swinging 1 right hand and 1 left hand and tripple attack can be apply to both. so 3 from right hand and 3 from left hand in a single row is the most you can have.

2. sneak/trick only apply to your 1 attack. so only your right hand swing.

3. it's a ninja task to spend money on blinks. just like mages have to buy magics. it's what they are expected to have and use

4. there's not "tons" of change. there's only 1 change. which is the positioning of sneak attack. you'll have to be behind enemy now as oppose to before, you just need to be out of enemy's sight.
