Hunt/BC vs XP/SOD: know the difference

[SkullKid 0]

There is several things that separates 1 on 1 oriented builds from mobbing oriented builds, beyond just status and skills.

1 on 1

 

-benefits from forces;

-benefits from added raw atk pow buffs;

-proficient at hunting, since monsters for hunting are much stronger;

-easier to kill someone at PVP, since players aren't dumbs (?);

-benefits from certain itens like mana drain that only procs when single targeted skills hits.

-most of the 1 on 1 skills depends of your attack rating, which for many classes it is annoying, you can't give away from points for agility without missing alot.

-like mobbing oriented, nice defensive skills and high health help (actually does for anyone), but make much more sense for massive killing since you always be surrounded when you're mobbing;

-like mobbing oriented, upgraded weapon does help, but since AoE usually don't trigger force added damage, it's more efective for mobbers to upgrade their weapons.

Mobbing

 

-Usually does not benefits from forces;

-Usually does not benefits from added raw atk pow buffs;

-proeficient at mobbing, since monsters for xping are weaker;

-only good to kill agglomeration of players at PVP (e.g. at BC's bridge);

-Does not benefits from certain itens like mana drain that only procs when single targeted skills hits;

-Unlike 1 on 1 skills, most AoE don't misses, so you can give away some points from agility for something else;

-nice defensive skills and high health is a must, since you always will be outnumbered when mobbing, but defensive skills and high health helps anyone anyway (thanks mister Obvious);

-Due to not have much ways to boost damage from AoEs, mobbers must upgrade their weapons as much as possible, also upgrade spirit (with status or gears) for larger mana pool and more AoE spamming.

As you see, this doesn't not apply for knight only, it does for practically any class. Maybe get this post pinned helps? Jokes, I'll be glad if this is of any use. ^__^
