Do you have max SSK and 11 Bullet Time or do you have max Bullet Time and 11 SSK?

I have both maxed. Maxed SSK in 1st job, and then finished off BT at the end of 2nd job over more grenade

Nope, its pretty much useless. If anything, it's only used as a luring device and occasional fun by lobbing them at people

i dont understand why you would need bullet time maxed but then again im just a brawler.

Avoid is especially important to slingers because taking less damage to our ship can actually mean doing more damage in the end.

I maxed SSK first job, then maxed bullet time instead of getting 11 grenade.

i max bullet time 2nd job instead of putting points in grenade EDIT: holy cow, that sentence had no grammar what-so-ever

Avoid is more useful than a skill you do 50 damage with. SSK damage is STr-based. Useless for slingers.

Useless for slingers." wrong. extra avoid is next to useless getting early, you can max BT at end of 2nd job. SSK is Str based, but i did as much dmg w/ SSK as with each shot of DS. so at early 3x, when at sand rats, i mobbed them together with weak invisi and then finished them off with SSK. It was very good xp for equipment as crappy as mine.

Uh, SSK's damage formula with a gun is based on DEX. It doesn't count bullet attack and has a -1/3 damage penalty though.

FroznSolid 05/16/09 + PM | QUOTE | PERMALINK | REPORT

still its useful first job as a mobbing skill ^^

well i think slingers need more avoid too if their so-called strongest move battleship is going to out-pwn hurricane :D
