Reading through some basil threads I came across this one post saying, "Arans, the kings of mobbing." This had me thinking...hey, I like mobbing, and I like being the king at things, so why haven't I made an aran. Well, I have no knowledge of arans at all, lol. I made one once they came out, but only made it to 20 because of improper funds. Now that I have great dexless warrior equips, I might as well give my aran a shot. I made a DB last night, but quit within about 3 minutes cause I hated looking like a ninja >.> What makes them the kings at mobbing? Are they fast trainers? Are end-game weapons super duper expensive? (opinion)Are they fun to play?

Maybe they have good attacking but i don't think they are fun to play ( I've played one and i have level 53 )

To me mages aren't really the king of mobbing, they are the kings of full screen death, don't get me wrong. To me mobbing is having a group of monsters infront you and absolutely demolishing them. Arans are very good over all sizes of mobs, the other warrior classes excelled in groups of different sizes, Heroes being 1-3, Paladins being 4-6 (especially elementally weak, decent 1v1 too) with DRK's being nearly as good as Heroes and Pallys on the same group sizings. Arans however can mob straight off the bat and they get better and better skills for this as they continue, it makes sense for an aran to train in a mobby map (i.e. Himes) because of how combo works, it is very easy to keep up your combo count with lots of monsters around. It seems like arans were designed for mobs from 1st to 4th job.

[quote] SensaiRyuClan : the problem i see with my mage friends and mobbing is that it takes one pot per gen or bliz. aron mobbing is much cheaper. i laugh at priests and wizards that try to ks me cuz their pot usage is so high that it's not worth it for them. aran's r definitely fun to train on. [/quote] LOL a/m maybe but on my bishop it cost 3.5k & I have 14k 3.5k ain't a big deal lol above +aran have to be near them since melee

[quote] OnyxApple : 12 monsters that you can kill twice as fast as those 15. (12 x 2) ___ 15 24>15 [/quote] You can kill it faster than the push of a button? That's pretty insane. And yes, that works, if all 12 spawn right in front of you.

Normal attack hits up to 2 monsters, Swings hit 12, Smashes and Fenrirs and charges and Tosses depend on the Skill level, Tempest hits 15, and...yeah. Also they can do Max damage on a monster without overkill. Like....they can OHKO 15 of the strongest non-boss monster in the game. Freeze them with Tempest, then PWN them. Why do you think people are going "OMG COMBO SMASH HITS 9.34 MILLION DAMAGE! W00T!"?

normal attack hits 2 when u start and goes up by one every twenty levels (so 3 at level 20 4 at level 40 etc) and thier mobbing attacks hit 12... thier also basically very overpowered in terms of damage (combo-smash anyone 0.o?) thier quite good mobbers but AM will always mob better than them even after balance patch

Aran's are very fun and easy go train. At level 126, dexless with semi funding and only 10 Overswing, I can do 20-30k damage with 100 combos! Aran's are very strong :D

IMO Arans are the 2nd place mobbers ( Stupid ultimates >.>) At 4th job you hit mobs of 12 6times total so thats a gain of what, 72 combos right there? We lvl up faster than other warriors, because not only do we attack faster, we mob more. We are able to kill bishops once we get to the gallo training area... We have the farthest reaching melee class range ever... What's not to like?

DarkQuill Low accuracy is for all warriors, not just Arans.. my mp is pretty high, I think around 1k-ish at levl 95 :o Stale one-attack-button system? I don't think so.. you use Combat JUMP to move around and you Final Charge monsters to Rush them into a spot or maybe a wall, and then you can Final Toss for some uber damage due to juggling monsters in the air.. later you will Tempest and you will still Combat JUMP for the whole Aran career :D
