    Venos use in FC
    1) Bramble makes boss go a little faster, clerics get less agro on pulls from barbs not stopping to gain agro, and who doesnt like to wear a hoola hoop?
    2) Nova acts as a roar with damage on pulls. If sage can do almost every 30 seconds if not passing sparks. If demon acts as Dragons when BM doesn't have chi
    3) Speaking of sparks we can pass them to cleric to set up BB so you don't stand there for 20 seconds before pulling while cleric gets chi
    4) Debuffs (Ironwood Scarab, Amplify Damage, Myriad Rainbow) Sage Ironwood is 40% Physical debuff helps BM and Sin Pwn. Sage amp is 30% more damage, and it stacks with Dragons, SubSea Strike and Tangeling Mire.
    5) Herc+Veno=better DD on Bosses than Wizard even without debuffs

    Not all Venos know how to be efficent and many that I see will just macro on bosses. Macro takes out a little lag between hits but not worth it, since I have yet to see one of those DD macros include Amplify damage. So if you see a lazy Veno yell at them.

    this. i enjoy having a veno on pulls especially the massive big room pull. nova ensures safety for the squishies. amp damage also helps drop bosses more quickly

    well, that might help, but honestly, I never been in a FC with a veno that really helped. My experiences were more like leeching than helping. True, I'm not really stepping in there except with rare occasions but...
    and for the 3)... IJS....if the cleric is not prepared with chi for BB might as well kick him out. That's his job. If I don't have mana for skills I'm useless, squad shouldn't wait for me to build up mana meditating as it should not wait for cleric to build chi. But you're right, the level of noobness in some of today's FCs is so elevated that yeah, you need a veno to pass sparks.

    im necroing but i dont care. youre obviously reading it anyway. i have 2 thingsto say....1 after rereading this thead its a huge argument as to whos better sin or BM in FC. i dont really think either is. i posted this becasue sins had no respect at the time in harshlands and i was getting turned down for FC runs.

    which brings me to my second point. if theres squad lookin to run fc and they have one spot open and no sin....the wc reads "LF sin for FC" no one will run an FC with out sins anymore....i love it!

    I usually don't go with a charm. The bosses that can get you close to death are Shocktrooper, Dreadindra, and Fragrance, and I find Shocktrooper to be the worst culprit. Dread can hurt if he spawns a bishop (he consequently purges every time he does), purges, you, and you get slept/hit/interrupted several times while trying to re-BP yourself. Fragrance is just a matter of timing sparks with the armor/mental break (generally I do every other with regard to estimates of when she will stun).

    All of those I kill before they do anything to me, every once and awhile holeen seals me a few times in a row, but that doesn't even tick my charm.

    *sigh* Posting on a necro.

    Was surprised to see a thread about Sins not being wanted in FCC, even if the thread was started 9 months ago. That's just sort sighted.

    Personal preference is still a bm in squad, but for straightout DD sins are insane. 450 dex dmg multiplier + easiest class to get -int on makes them the perfect char in "The Era of aps".

    Here's my complaints, though. I was FCCing my barb one day, sin the next, back to barb, back to sin... Whenever I'd play my sin the barb in squad would say "Oh good, a sin is here. You can tank." Sometimes, I'd join a squad and that would be announced before people saw my gear. Okay, with barb buffs no problem. Here's the weird part. This started at level 84 ish, and I'm a support sin. I went sage. I spark occasionally but more chi goes into constantly subseaing others and I make sure rib strike is always on.

    When I'm on my barb, which is now 97, and I suggest to a lvl 99 4.0 sin could they tank about half say "sure!" The rest say "I don't know?" or straight out refuse. I spend my entire time Reaming and reseting aggro to re-aggro after a sin triple sparked on an HF with tangling mire and armor break. I suggest it will go faster if I use devour to reduce the bosses defense by 50%, as well as give them about 25% more back in bloodpaint, as well as devour reducing the bosses attack levels by 10, but many 90+ sins are still too antsy to tank. Yet if I'm on my lvl 90 sage sin with 2.22 aps I am expected to everytime.

    Speaking of demon sins. These sins I am trying to out aggro are spark+auto attack machines. I haven't seen rib strike in about 10 FCC runs and rarely see them subsea. It's triple spark, 10 seconds later triple spark again, over and over. What's with that?



    And after all that, don't get me wrong. I love my sins. I enjoy them taking out shades to make fewer, bigger pulls. I enjoy having aps in my squad. And I especially enjoy bloodpaint.

    I dunno. I did a run with one once, it wasn't too bad. But then again, he and I were the only ones who seemed to know what we were doing...b:shocked
