Drk/war

[MagicH4t]

After reading awntan(spelling?) guide i am verrrrrry sad

He said DRK/THF is better.

Than drk war and i am not going to level thf just for drk i wont be a drk if thats the case... I hate thf i hate the low hp the low ar the low attack damage.

Trick and Sneak attack only work on the first it so thats every 3 mins for sneak.... Would

Warcry + Beserk +Last Resort + Soul eater be better?

Not to menition WAR gives you another Attack up a defense bonus and double attack....

He says its for hate transfer i thought if you had a really really good tank that nothing could ever get a monster off the tank.

Also can a hume DRK/WAR do over 1000 damage on a IT if not i need to change to pld >_<

Just because he said THF is better doesnt make WAR useless man. Also he said none of them are butter it depends on the situation. THF is good for PTs withought THF, war is for PTs without one. There. Besides don't follow every word Awn says. He may know ALOT more than me but that doesnt mean he's perfect. He stated that himself. He's still cool/godly in my opinion tho :p If you dont want to be a THF then dont be. You'll just be less efficient in certain PTs but you wont be BAD.

*EDIT* by posting this you are basically creating another subjob post, and i dont think we need anymore of those

with sneak+trick u can get away with sum crazy shit w/o taking hate..and it will do a critical(sneak) and multiply the damage 2x(trick) so Soul Eater+sneak+trick+cross reaper=great ^_^....dont put last resort in this because the monster immediatly focus' on you...so you wont hit the sneak+trick =\

yeah but that still a nice pile of hate right there. :sweat:

extra attack bonus from war doesn't stack with dark knight main. Same abilities from main and sub job do not stack >.<

It all depends on your role in the party. If I'm gonna be going around with guillo, or doing BC, or something like that, I sub war, but when i'm closing the skillchain with cross or spin, I sub THF because THF boosts those by a lot.

Basically, DRK/WAR does more damage on it's own with guillo than DRK/THF, but considering the skillchain damage, DRK/THF would often do more for the party. It's all dependant on the circumstances.

Usually multi-hit WS spams are reserved for mass VT chains, so if you plan on doing that, sub war, but for a constant stream of IT, you're probably best with skillchains. Nuke skillchains take longer to ready for and do a huge amount of damage in one shot, so you save them for when the mob has a lot of HP left and kill it all in seconds, whereas guillo/penta spams are always good throughout the fight. The nuke skillchain is usually wasted or inefficient on VT chains, on the other hand multi-hit WS's aren't as reliable on IT.

I'm not going to say any of the methods are better than the other in terms of exp gain... but I personally am tired of using guillo over and over without thinking, so I'm subbing THF for the moment :p

In short:

DRK/WAR or DRK/SAM = consistent damage dealer
DRK/THF = nuker
