Should I use Mortal Blow if I have PKB?

I used Final Attack for 2nd job, which took away from Soul Arrow and Bow booster. (For the Big Bang, a Bowmaster had FA, and it wasn't slowing Hurricane down at all, so FA will be useful later on.) If I don't use MB, I can add more to SA/BB. I just think that PKBing a monster then shooting with Strafe or Hurricane might be better than using MB.

You can not really choose when to use MB.

You kind of screwed your Bowman up...fa is the least wanted bowman skill. And IMO MB is useless so you don't really need it. Just need 5 of MB.

[/quote] Some more details about FA after the Big Bang. But in my situation, should I just put the remaining points into SA and BB? The rest of my 3rd job skills are fine, it's just that I'd like more time with SA and BB... And look at all of the extra arrows shot with FA while using Hurricane. Hurricane is never slowed down. And after reading more, apparently Nexon is lowering SA from 20 SPs to 10.

You're forgetting that the Big Bang patch comes with a complete SP reset scroll. Such future planning isn't necessary. If you're gonna take points out of anything, then thrust is the way to go. To be honest, I don't think that an increase in your timer warrants using up valuable 3rd job points.

Don't neglect MB, it is very useful while using hurricane.

I assume you have no idea that Nexon is giving us a comple SP reset scroll, resets all your SP points...when Big Bang patch comes out..and Wrestle already said that before me. And yes I know about the FA while Hurricane thing. I'm not dumb, I'm pretty up-to-date in the Big Bang Patch...I contributed some info too actually cause I'm in Korea at the momment.. @2Above, I don't know can't you just use dragon pulse and push em back? Or PKB? I don't think MB is just for me. EDIT: @Above, same thing :P EDIT 2: One more thing, whats your full build? Like state your skills from first job to 3rd. It might help us in what you should do.

Shouldn't the extra hits from Hurricane in BB patch be MB? It makes more sense to me.

[quote] xlrAcer5 : I don't understand what you mean by that... What, and how many things can I reset? [/quote] Well, just think it like this, there gonna give you enough SP resets to reset ALL of your SP. So it's like your making a new build completely. @Above, Watcha mean by that? FA is just a no-delay skill that activates 40% of the times and hits 150% of your damage o-o. MB is useless in Big Bang because there getting rid of how close you must be to shoot instead of whack.

[quote] xlrAcer5 : I don't understand what you mean by that... What, and how many things can I reset? [/quote] He's wrong. You only get one. MB's used to create the itty bitty teeny weenie space needed to shoot at your monsters. This is needed when a monster spawns on or near you, and I honestly don't think you (or anyone) has the reflexes to change skills and hit a spawning monster with PKB; It might not even be possible. Added on to that, it does appreciable damage.

[/quote] No problem just helping out. Look at how awesome bowmasters are now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsB1qbC8MRY <3 EDIT: @Above After the Big Bang patch we'll be able to always hit monsters..so MB is kinda useless. And as for now, MB imo is still useless, you may hit the monster when i spawns on top of you, but that doesn't mean it'll get it off you completely (usually will) and you still have a chance of whacking it. And yes no one has the reflexes but i'd rather whack once and then PKB it and then hurricane, saves 15 SP for a measly split second.
