I see that we get most of our training skills in 3rd job so whats to be expected in 4th? Is there a point I mean cause it's getting pretty repetitive at Gallos and I was wondering if you guys had fun in 4th job with new skills. (That made you want to go further.)

[quote] EpikSnow : lols as a 121 DB, it is NOT worth it. reasons : sure u get a little extra dmg from final cut and stuff but dieing is a problem and final cut @ lvl 1 only last like 10 seconds- it rushes you to w.e your attacking so if your bossing, you need to rush in to the boss and endure w.e damage it does and the skill sacrafices like half your hp to use so if ur bossing and u use it on a boss you'll die unless theres like a mob that the boss summons, you can attack that instead . and owl spirt... even @ max it only last like a few seconds if you train. might as well just not use it @ all. another problem is surviving.... i didnt leech to 120 (took me 6 days)i trained my ass off and i die very often. sometimes i would use 15 buffs for a 4 hour training session. another thing is pot consumption. whenever i train @ skeles, i always use around 14-16 mill worth of pots. thats equivalent or maybe even more than what arch mages spend on pots. im quiting my db and goign back to my shad. making one and maintaining one is such a hassle.... oh and btw, RGTS is this robot boss in neo city that gives 15.5m exp but does 16k touch dmg. [/quote] If your burning too many pots at skeles then you really dont know how to play your char. Only time you burn too many pots at skeles is if you go there at like 105 or something. Then sure you do but by the time your 110+ you should be able to kill them at a decent speed even unfunded to the point where you wont burn that many pots. Do not state your flaws as facts. 120+ dbs are extremely fun and never get boring. Just need to know how to control your char and you be fine.

[/quote] 14-16m of pots doesn't mean much when you don't give us a time interval. Either way, you're doing something wrong if you think you're using a lot of pots. Personally, I'm spoiled by my Shadower so I'm used to using virtually no pots. In perspective, however, DBs get iframes with their combos and they have high avoid. Immediately they'll be using fewer pots than many other classes. Like the person above me said, you shouldn't be burning pots unless you're lower leveled (like 100-120 maybe). I'm dropped my potion use down to about 250 Ginger Ales an hour and I don't use autopot so I tend to get a little panicky and pot when I don't need to. That's not comparable to what AMs consume in an hour of training.

From 120+, training at skeles, I use about 5m worth of pots between my bishop and DB in a 4 hour training session, if you're using 15m worth of pots on just your DB, you're probably using the wrong potions and doing something else wrong. Also, final cut isn't a rushing move, it's primarily a buff (30 seconds of double damage at level 1) that just happens to rush the opponent, your main rushing skills are still flying assaulter and tornado spin. Coupled with flashbang, you can use it on pretty much anything you want to. ------------------ As for the questions, it gets really fun 4th job, training stays essentially the same, final cut and thorns speed it up tremendously though. You can also begin really bossing at that point. You definitely use a lot of your old skills, but that's the same for most classes.

Not gonna lie, getting used to the pot consumption was a bit hard for me on my DB. Being an aran with drain, using pots was very seldom. At gallos I recoreded a pot use of 8 honsters (dead serious) in one hour at level 115. However being on my DB I consume 200-300 carrot cakes in an hour of training. Not quite 4th job, but lemme tell you, these guys are indeed fun

I like it. I went the thorns---> Sudden raid route and I can say training is flying by for me. It's a fast paced training job that can boss decently. However seeing your avatar is a 120 marksman; I`d just like to say I trained a marksman to 178 and that was a blast =)! Once you max pierce it gets nice. You should consider training that if DB doesn`t work out for you.

Chains of hell is the most epic move ever... try n get to 120 JUST FOR THAT For the guy dying so much and burning so much pots.. you really just REALLY suck... u shouldnt have wasted ur time and money getting to 120 when u suck with a class this bad at lvl 120 i had 5k hp.. this is when i started skeleing and i dont die because of the millions of iFrame moves dual bladers come with... and how dare you complain after dying as a thief.. YOU ONLY LOOSE 5% ...i had a 145 aran previous to this and i never care when i die while bfing on my db cus its just a measly 5% compared to the 10% i used to loose on my aran. You have flash bang.. dark sight.. invisibility frames.. HIGH avoid... HIGHEST MOBILITY IN THE GAME.. so many things keeping you from not dying and u still manage to do so ever so often? Plz.. just go play a shad. or a warrior with high hp since u cant handle it
