Hey Everyone Its Wicksta. If you know me whether it be pw or some other mmorpg your cool! I'm sure you know I take care of my buddies too! My Friends get a 30% discount on my merchandise in the shop. I'll make free gear for my faction members or friends. Sometimes I even throw in mats if some is short. If your neither my friend nor guildie I will either charge you to use my smithing skills or just not smith for you at all. All of my manufacturing skills are level 5 with max xp. I can't advance them till I hit 80. AND I usually give my friends xp scrolls or heiros if we grind. If you don't know me thats cool too. But anyways the reason I asked you to come here besides for free cookies..... is because I need advice.

I'm a level 63 Blademaster and I'm happy with my character mostly but I wonder what more there could be for me.

I have 196 strength, 108 dex, 5 magic and 32 vitality. My patk is 1458 - 2247 but when you incorporate my weapons attack speed (i'm not sure if its included) its 1618.38 - 2494.17. I got that by multiplying by my attack rate of 1.11 attacks in one sec. My accuracy is 1124 my evasion is 1272.

I can deal roughly 1300 to 2000 to mobs about my level (Thats including def and its a regular attack.) I have seen criticals on my character that go up to 10k, and thats without spark eruption. I'm quite partial to Aeolian blade and Myriad sword stance.
I use HH60 Weapon Petrified femur and Heavy armor which I need more 3 star of.
With my own buffs Level 80'ish mobs don't hit me for more than 400 unless they critical or are magical.

But why does it seem everyone else can dish out more than me? Where should I be placing my stats? What should I socket my gear with, what should I grind on?

My tiger maw is like level 7 it adds 511.2 (It means I'd hit for 2129.58 -3005.37, obviously I didn't incorporate defense into that figure.) to my base physical damage. It's actually not that bad I only added to it because it was cheap. I generally try to use Dual Blades. Though I admit I'm using a sword right now because I can still use my sword/blade skills, and the sword is the only HH60 weapon that lets me use those skills. NO I will not use axes or spears they have never been the type of weapons I like.

My skills are as follows...
Tiger Maw - 7
Draw Blood - 10
Stream Strike - 4
Aeolian Blade - 9
Drake's Ray - 5
Ocean's Edge - 3
Fan of Flames - 2
Drake Sweep - 2
Piercing Wind - 1 (Accidental)
Drake Bash - 1 (Also Accidental)
Mage Bane - 3
Spirit Chaser - 3
Atmos Strike - 2
Myriad Sword Stance - 1
Aura of the Golden Bell - 10
Roar of the Pride - 3
Cloud Sprint - 10
Will of the Bodhisatva - 1
Tiger Leap - 2
Leap Back - 1
Alter Marrow Magical - 5
Alter Marrow Physical - 8
Diamond Sutra - 7

    Um, what did you expect? Blademasters are not the top Damage Dealers in the game.

    As a Blademaster you're not going to deal more damage than caster classes or archers, maybe only slightly more than Barbarians, but since you're a Sword user, they will more likely deal more damage.

    If you want more damage, the weapons that provide it are Polearm (Spear) and Axes.

    Spear will add around 1k more damage and Axe will double your max damage.

    As a sword user i would have had you add more dex, you might not hit as hard but you crit A TON more times. I am only lvl 51 and on average im criting atleast once per mob most of the time twice and have seen 5 crits on one mob.

    of course you could switch to axes for more damage but you accuracy goes down alot and you will never hit an archer for you life.

    im an axe user and I was able to kill an archer of equal or higher lvl than me with ease. All you need to do is hit them once or twice and they die xD

    O_O most archers on lc are pure dex, or only have slight vit (Under 30)

    I don't have any problems, Worse comes to worse, pop a + Acc pot and they drop quick.

    Most Archer's at high levels are pure DEX (I would same all, but there're 2-3 that are not), most Axe users don't have problems when fighting them, using one LY is enough that there is not really need to use a second one.

    Of course, this is considering that the Axe user is using a PvP build. With that, most Axe users easily get 2k+ Accuracy just using one ring.
