    Demon.

    I chose Demon because it has the highest DPS out of any other char in the game.
    Sage Sins can't compare because they can't reach the same level of DPS, DPH on the other hand they are nice for.

    There's quite a few pros/cons for sage and demon, but in the end demon wins because of the Demon Spark.

    Sages can't naturally hit 5.0, Demons can.
    5.0 = permaspark = killing things very quickly = finishing things faster = larger revenue generation/Higher Kill Count for PvP.

    The pros/cons are listed elsewhere, but it's entirely about skills. Sages do more damage per hit, but Demons hit faster/have a higher crit rate (Buffs excluded).

    If they nerf aps, sage

    If they don't, demon.

    Don't want to go into details, but every sin out there pretty much knows why...

    Myself: Sage.

    My husband: Demon.

    Sometimes I envy him, other times he envies me. Together, we've been able to successfully duo everything we've attempted. We're not quite up to world bosses or anything like that, but at 94, we've done a fair share of the game content.

    Demon for higher APS.

    And I don't believe PWI will nerf aps due to the fact they make a buttload of money from it. All their high-end cash shoppers would rage quit and leave and it kind of defeats the purpose of going demon in the first place. PWI would lose a killer amount of money if they did.. would be rather stupid to nerf it and self-distructive to their business.

    Sage for mine. The cost for the Ashura's armors and Lionheart ornaments is going to be crazy enough, let alone needing to get the rank 8 top. I'd rather go with the cheaper alternative since I have no intentions of spending any money on this game. Besides, I like the Sage skills. b:pleased

    Demon.

    It's not that demons don't use any skills, in Fc you use your sleep + aoeing skills, in cube you use in some rooms healing trance (79 one), and even a 3.0 aps is imo awesome to have.

    The other skills you have are mainly for PvP/TW. So those are maxed on my toon too.

    Sage is probably a lot a fun as well, but i prefer Demon cause it's a no-brainer killing mobs fast. I don't wanna faceroll my buttons either to kill mobs, lmao.

    Sleep in FC? For what?

    You also don't need healing trance for any room in the cube, it's just convenient to have for 100 second stands.

    In PVP/TW, unless you're 4-5 APS, you're gonna faceroll your keyboard anyway--although against people who know what they're doing, trying to APS them to death will get you killed--and Sage can still sit at 4 APS permanently (higher with Wind Shield/Relentless Courage), so it's not like they need to use skills any more often than Demon. Same for PVE. They probably do anyway, though, because most of their skills are better than Demon.

    Wanna know why I rolled Demon? Because I'm too lazy to farm a tome so I can hit higher aps with Sage. Already have gold tt99 armor/ornaments and rank body waiting for me, and farming nirvy gear is gonna be expensive enough as it is...

    ...read some guides, then you'll know why, different tactics i suppose.

    did i say "need" ? i NEVER said that anywhere in my post. i clearly said "use in some rooms". And yes, the 100 sec stand ones.

    "The other skills you have are mainly for PvP/TW" ...ring a bell ?
    "...faceroll my buttons either to kill mobs" ....MOBS. I didn't mention pvp/tw here.

    Dunno, maybe you were tired dude/gal , but you have to read my post right and not interprete it differently then how it's written. Don't change my words or try to "add" words that don't even appear in my post.

    But for the rest you're right, well, stating the obvious.

    If you're facerolling your keyboard to kill regular mobs at later levels instead of hitting auto-attack, you're playing Sin wrong, demon or sage. Hell, I survive better in solo FCs when pulling 2-3 groups at a time in the big room by sparking and auto-attacking mobs one at a time--my charm doesn't tick at all, compared to when I triple spark > Subsea > Rift > Bramble Rage > Auto-attack a single group in there.

    Save your skills for PVP/utility debuffs in PVE, regardless of whether you're demon or sage.

    Sage, pretty much same reasons as Olbaze. I love sage, cause it suits me, but don't think it's better then demon (nor that demon is better then sage).

    And btw, sage isn't necessarily a skill spammer. It's a person that makes a character a skill spammer, not the culti. Also, some ppl seem to think sage sin is not a DD, but do consider a bm (demon) as a DD lol

    True, both have their advantages and drawbacks. None is "better" then the other.

    Truth be told, i see demon sins that nearly never use a skill. Just sparking away...while there are skills that demon sins should be using. Like subsea strike in certain situations (FC by example). Or any stun/sleep skill to save their cleric (in BH by example).

    In my opinion though sage sins skills seem to be better and therefore better suited to be used more then demon skills. Might be wrong though since i don't play sage.

    I'm a demon now, and I'm loving it.

    When I'm killing the bishop shade, I sleep one bishop, kill the other, and then back to the regular.

    Though I do that sometimes. Most of the times I just kill them without sleeping
