They're situational.

well FT needs 200k combo and HH has 100s cooldown. Both kills surrounding monsters in 2 hits and does massive dmg to bosses

well Heaven's Hammer cannot kill a snail by it's lonesome, it requires you to use another hit and combo tempest is just mass destruction.

[quote] jakjak4161 : well FT needs 200k combo and HH has 100s cooldown. Both kills surrounding monsters in 2 hits and does massive dmg to bosses [/quote] Like I said, that makes them situational. Kudos to any Aran that gets a chance to actually use such an attack against anything that Dispels regularly. In any event, as far as I know neither is considered a particularly major attack for the job in question. At least, I certainly know HH is only taken seriously in very few situations compared to, say, ACB.

Heaven's Hammer. If the aran get stunned = no combo to use tempest

I thought Heavens Hammer had a 20second cooldown?

Doesn't tempest remove 200 hits from your combo count when you use it?

[quote] twilly1234 : Doesn't tempest remove 200 hits from your combo count when you use it? [/quote] If it works like all the other combo skill it resets your combo back to zero. Of course it could be the odd exception to the rule.

[quote] EternalWind : Heaven's Hammer.

But, I agree that it would be much more difficult at something like pap.

I would say Heaven's Hammer is better than Frozen Tempest because HH can be used every 20 seconds when maxed and does 199,999 damage on up to 15 monsters (boss) so if you are at Zakum, you can throw out 1.6 million extra damage every 20 second, while Combo Tempest may take a little longer (possibly more damage though) and when used, you lose all of your combo bonuses (+10 attack and critical) until you recharge them.

I think when they're both maxed hammer is better. Tkaes about the same rime to use and reuse depending on the mob also since tempest is ice based I don't think it's works on unfreezable enemies for example typhons.
