I've been wondering lately for a wind archer in the long run what's more useful? Storm or focus?

Focus.

Focus. Storm's only 'useful' during the first few levels before 30. Focus might save your life with the avoid buff, though still unlikely. Not convinced? Go look at kevvl's guide in the stickies.

Focus, storm is just for show.

Storm.Hits up to 3 monsters,KBing them while in dangerous situations. You will probably NEVER have acc issues and avoid won't be such of a big deal.

They both have a certain 'useless' factor but at high levels, do you really wanna agro everything you walk by? Not to mention Storms damage is extremely low after you get a little bit into 2nd job

Focus saved my live a couple of time. Storm just aggros monsters you don't want to aggro. I maxed focus and I don't regret it. Haven't used storm since lvl 25.

hmmmm i see what you mean by storm becomes usless in higher levels but thats the only summoning wind archers have =/

You have a lvl cap of 120, you can't say bonus acc is completely useless. I'd say focus is more useful on CK then on normal archers.

Both are pretty much useless but i went with Storm

Wtf? Who doesn't max Eye of The Amazon. It gives your arrows more range o,o I prefer focus over storm. Cuz storm gets in the way when i stormbreak and doesn't allow me to knockback the monsters a further distance.
