Tornado Spin gathers mobs Bloody Storm attacks and goes through mobs and does much more damage You choose

The best training combo is the FATSUS one, flying assaulter > tornado spin > upper stab because you can go across very big maps in few seconds with it, also upper stab beats blood storm due its very high spam-ability.

See, It depends on what you want 1) Quick training, but ininteresting and repetitive. 2)More fun training, but at the cost of leveling speed 1 would be FA-TS-US because of the Gather, Group, Finish repetitiveness 2 would be FA-BS-US because of the non repetitive Gather, Attack/Finish combo. This would be more fun (IMO) because you have the freedom to hit with BS or US as those are both usable as the second component in the combo. In short, are the scenarios: 1: [attack1] [attack2] [spam attack3] [mob dead] 2: [attack1] [attack2 ->] [attack2 <-] [spam attack 3] [attack2 ->] [mob dead]

[/quote] FATSUS- Flying Assaulter, Tornado Spin, Upper Stab FABSUS- Flying Assaulter, Bloody Storm, Upper Stab Bloody storm does way more damage than tornado spin, but it runs through the mob without dragging them like TS or FA FABSUS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mn_3ZC71e-k&feature=fvst FATSUS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsmC488RcsY FABSUS is shown for most of the video, FATSUS is shown the for the whole video. If you notice in the vids, FABSUS leaves the mob behind when bloody storm is used, Whereas the FATSUS vid shows them being collected.

Question: can someone direct me SOMEWHERE that explains the reason for using these specific combos? IMO Tornado Spin is not that good, while Bloody Storm seems much more useful?

bloody storm is meant for you to back up when u missed a monster during your fatsus combo to regather the mob again without jumping backwards

You can't gather mobs with bloody storm due to the lack of a pushing effect? TS seems so useless though. It's like a non-charging CSB.

[/quote] Tornado spin damages the mob, while maintaining the close distance with the mob so that upper stab can be spammed immediately afterwards. I believe Bloody Storm would send you away from the mob while at the same time damaging it- but then you would be out of upper stab range and unless you are able to KB with BS, then the mob would begin dispersing. you would need to repeat the BS to get back in range, or FJ. that's my best guess, i don't know the numbers- but i also know tornado spin is much more spammable because it has no invinc. time where you are unable to move, unlike bloody storm.
