PowerMech or change Knight? please help

[DeadlyWarrior 688]

Hi all,
first off all thanks for reading my topic. I play a lvl 127 Mech. My question is: Does it make sense to continue playing PowerMech compared to a Knight (PVE and PVP). i read the descriptions of this webside about the Knight and Mech skills, let me share my results with you please:

Knight advantages:
- Drastic Spirit: increase the total def by 22% points. Def-Points also add absorb.
- Godly Shield reduces any recieved damage by 25%. In other words KS always get 75% of the damage instead of 100%, it also add +4% block
- GodBless: increase min/max power by 120 Points. It doesnt cancel other buffs
- GrandCross: increase AR by 80%. Dmg-Boost is 80% It also have a bonus against Undeads
- Undead Bane: increase the dmg against undeads by 20%. It's a passive skill
- Physical training: 50% Stamina boost
- Holy Aura: Increase AR of Double Crash and Divine Piercing by 40%. Increase HP Regen. Leech HP from Undeads to recover its own HP
- Sword Mastery: increase attackpower on swords by 35%

- Holy Incantation: Need Undead Monster for summon a pet


Power-Mech advantages:
- Extreme Shield: increase blockrate by 15% = MS can get 11% more block then Knight
- Maximize: increase the weapons max damage by 70%. cancels PhysicalAbsorb/MetalArmor/TrineShield
- Grand Smash: increase AR by 80%. Dmg-boost is 79%. Its almost like GrandCross of KS, but without bonus damage against any monster-type.
- Mechanic Weapon Mastery: Increase attackpower of mech spec weapons by 40%. MS have +5% more dmg boost on weapons then KS
- Complusion: Increase ABS by 42 points. The Bonus-Def of DrasticSpirit increase the ABS of KS too. But i guess MS win in terms of ABS.
- Metal Golem: can Summon a pet anytime
- Magnetic Sphere: Sphere dmg 400-500 per Second. I dont know much about this skill and how it works in higher maps, if its usefull or trash. please help here


First off all: When i analized this i noticed,  that there is no Tier5 Skill for PowerMechs. A power mech cant use Presicion, Gravitation or TrineShield. I hope GM will notice this too and make the missing tier5 skill usefull for PowerMechs.

When you compare PowerMech with Knight: Does it make sense to continue play PowerMech? Or should i change to Knight? Mech have more Block then KS and a bit more ABS. But all in all i really don't know if it makes sense to continue play PowerMech, because it seems that Knight is more tanky then Power Mech, do probaly more dmg, have big advantage vs. undeads and have various skills. Can anyone tell me how it is at higher levels, in PVE and PVP? That would really help me to save time and money. Please dont tell me about AutoMech, i want to play PowerMech only. Thanks alot!!

mech is the best killer for 140+ when as auto, melee chars are bad at end maps

Change to knight is the best option, when I changed to power MS my dmg was low/ok and was hard to find party at SS

 

I suggested a dmg % increase to mob types by weapon type long time ago. Take a look

 

 

It might not be these numbers, but some kind of bonus for each weapon type are very welcoming to power build.

Thanks for the answers.

nice shedule you've done. yea it's probably better to change to knight since the facts show objectively that knight is better then Mech, if you want to play MS as Melee. That make me a bit sad. is there any hope, that GM will make in future the missing tier5 skill of Mech a usefull skill for PowerMech? Thanks

Depend on your playing style bro, if you play only 1 char then ks is better than power mech after level 140 (under 140 power mech can switch to tanker, always better than ks in DIQ). But if you play more than 1 char, power mech will be better for helping other chars.

You can see some struggle when doing CT3/DIQ with ks, because ks can only lure and it's very tired. You may give up before level 140 with ks.

Its very romantic to imagine "having the whole experience with that character" when we think of leveling it solo from lvl 0 to eternity. The sad reality, in the other hand, is that wasting 8162384962384698 hours struggling with a character for pride's sake isnt the funniest thing, let alone the smartest. I suggest picking up your favorite character and use a priest to level it up. 140/144+ or even sometimes when you are bored of the priest, you can always solo with your main character, if you keep him equiped enough, of course. Without a doubt thats the smartest, funniest and fastest way to level up, want it or not.

i exp my chars myself, from lvl 1. that means investing alot of hours. if you reach end map/end items, then you should be happy with your class. every class have advantages and disadvantages
