If you are planning on making a warrior, I very strongly recommend that you make the advancement as a Swordsman. They're a very good and very popular class. In fact, 100% of people who make a warrior advance as one.

To add to the above, saying "high damage" will automatically leave you in the same quandary you already had. ALL warriors have high damage; that's what they're built for. What you have to elaborate on is what type of damage you want to prioritize. Namely: one-on-one, small mob, or big mob; 2nd job, 3rd job or 4th job; against enemies that do or don't use Dispel; against high or low defense enemies; against enemies with or without an elemental weakness; just pure damage/knockback damage or damage-per-second (which also takes attack speed into account); and whether you want to need elemental advantage, HP restriction, or to cycle through orbs/keep orbs at a certain count to have your damage rates. Also, I'm not sure why you're looking for an easy answer to "which job is funner and better" when we've pointed out on four threads today alone that no such job exists. ALL are fun and ALL are good, in the long and short runs. You have to define fun and good for yourself. Which role do you want to play? That's the question at the heart of EVERY RPG's job choices.

[quote] Spanishsk8er : hmm, well i want good one on one and helpful in a PQ, and whats good in 2nd and 3rd job [/quote] Like I said before, it tends to help if you define what you mean by "good." Just saying "good" doesn't tell us anything at all about what you want. EVERYONE is "helpful" in a PQ because warriors deal kickass damage that kills stuff very quickly and have enough HP to virtually never die in one. For one-on-one, DKs generally aren't too favorable for that since they're much more mob-centered. WKs are stronger one-on-one if the enemy's weak to fire or lightning while Crusaders are stronger one-on-one the rest of the time (but their damage is in variable, unsteady "combos.") Basically, if it's all about one-on-one in 3rd job, then ask yourself this. At level 100-120, what do you want to be able to do: hit 15,000 on every hit vs. a fire-or-lightning-weak enemy and 13,000 if it's ice-weak, but just 10,000 if the enemy isn't fire-or-ice-or-lightning-weak? Or hit more like a cycle of 8,000 then 10,000 then 10,000 then 11,000 then 11,000 then 39,000 then restart from 8,000? Or you could try DK, which has a support skill that's decent for PQs and higher mob power in 3rd job, but their one-on-one would look more like 17,000 then 16,000 then 18,000... but only getting 4 attacks for every 6 attacks the other two get. If you like swords, and want to use them, eliminate DK since they don't. Both WKs and Crusaders can use swords and both should probably make it their first choice if you're going by pure efficiency anyway.
