Pathologiz Wrote:thhhhiiiiiiiissssssss bad.. real bad.. you need to mash skills like crazy to do good dmg. and the fact that you need to combo a 4th job mobbing skill with a 2nd job mobbing skill inorder to clear mob fast is such a turnoff.
This, pretty much this. I can explain more to you since i just got both of my striker and soul master to lvl 100 two days ago, and i was too tired to take a lvl up ss of them..
Striker, or Thunder Breaker if you prefer that name, is an extremely mobile class. You basically move along with your skills while performing a skill chaining. You cannot stand at one point and spam your skills until the mobs die. It is still possible, that is when you are not performing a skill combo and spamming a skill. For example, I personally like to spam shark kick (the somersault kick move in 2nd job) until late 3rd job due to its huge hitbox and i can almost clear all the mobs around and above me in magatia pq stage 4. (imagine the hitbox of heavenly crash and celestial roar of AB). Believe it or not, the range of shark kick is too OP for a 2nd job skill and it is really fun to use it. However, you must note that you are a lot slower when you are spamming a skill, but luckily the damage of shark kick is still acceptable.
The only skill combo I love and quickly get used to it would be the 2nd job one, the water wave + shark kick combo. This skill combo is so smooth as if I think I will main this class. Ironically, striker's skill combo is getting worse in 3rd job, the ascend + thunder combo. (yeah, I'm saying you). I mainly hate ascend because when i train in a map where platforms are close to each other, like C-1 and C-2 Lab or Auto Security Area (the magatia MP), ascend will always bring me to the upper platform, and this makes me difficult to execute a successful ascend + thunder combo. Maybe this is my personal problem but I find this very annoying while I'm trying to use Ascend. This explains why i'm still using 2nd job move even though I'm already 3rd job because they work really well in a map with straight lane. Sometimes I will use shark kick + ascend combo to clear a group of mobs but before that, I will use water wave or thunder to push the mobs into a corner. Shark kick + ascend combo is also the only viable option while bossing because you are not moving while performing this skill combo. Striker 4th job is beyond ridiculous because Bolt Anchor is only your mobbing move in 4th job, and you have to chain it with another mobbing move to make it faster. I believe that the 2nd job mobbing skill meant by Pathologiz is Shark Kick, and i do agree with him that chaining a 4th job skill with a 2nd job skill is a turnoff although both of the skills have huge hitbox. I don't know if the gameplay of striker will be improved or not when Typhoon Spam comes into action since my level is not high enough yet to try that skill.
Currently, I have no plan to level him past lvl 100 but I will get him to lvl 120 sometimes later for the sake of link skill.

Warrior Grounds would be less scary if Power Transfer (AB's damage reduction skill) didn't suck so hard. Still, pretty fun place to train!

Now I've found a way to keep the D/Cing somewhat at bay, can get down to leveling this. Would train at SH more if it weren't so expensive/risky.

Got bored of evo world and decided to kill Zakum for EXP, arms are actually pretty decent if you have around a 20k range at level 110 or so.

Thanks! When they're revamped they have a pretty nice link skill, it gives 5/10%status resistance, and since Dual Blade doesn't have particularly high status resistance naturally I figured I'd use my free character slots to make the 3 revamped Cygnus classes. I think it should give me 25% resist with all 3, or somewhere around that area

when transferred, you only get 5% resistance at level 2. so you should get 15%.
