if a hard pounding DDs such as a for example, a wizard, or psychic, or veno, or mystic or cleric with negative channeling can make up for 1 4-5 aps class in a squad.. constantly spamming their skills.?..keep in mind...negative channeling on casters can be just as fast as a APS DD such as a BM for example, or Sin, or Barb..??

to me i think, team work works best, no matter how long it takes..this game is made for every class,

i think those that put down others and discriminate them from a squad or group cause they dont have enuf APS, or not enuf fire power..is kinda bogus...

cant find a APS u specify?, get a lower APS aka 2.0 DD..who cares if it takes en extra minute..afterall its all about teamwoek..., give people a chance to try for the teamwork..aka nirvana or whatever

i have a 2.5 aps SAGE BM lvl 100 on RT 7k HP unbuffed, TT90

    ow about this:

    6 people that know how 2 friggin play their class.

    Start there. Then 1 of each class for 6 slots 2 enable a good diverse squad, that is able take on most situations.

    I don't mind bringing a caster into NV, especially a veno. But both a cleric and a veno D: your asking to much sir.

    I'm saying this AS a 10x cleric. If you have a 5.0 aps squad with BP... you dont need us, and often squads like that wont take one b:surrender


    And on topic, you are right. Any combination of classes will get things done, and if you play for fun then by all means, make a class of a wiz, psy, veno, mystic, etc. But if you are farming to make money, then sadly, those squads are far from being the best at it. I've joined high aps squads for nv, and I've joined "for fun" ones, and let me tell you, the only runs I will ever do again are the high aps ones. An hour + insane amounts of charm **** and pots just for barely enough coin to replenish the pots? No thank you. 400k-800k every 10-15 minutes? With minimal pot usage? Yes please.

    Honestly bringing in a caster isn't a bad idea espescially in the low levels its not bad at all. But When you get to end game and need to farm money, APS is what matters.

    Oh, and about this. No it cant. Even if you had 100% -channeling, which is impossible, it wouldnt be as fast. You would have to pump out at least 5 skills a second, which given cast time, wont happen. Ever. No matter how much channel you have, you can't lower the cast time. Not to mention after a point, you start running into the issue where your attacks are on cooldown anyways, so you cant spam as easily.



    As Nuri said though, lower level instances, or even higher level bh's, hell yeah, bring anyone along. Those are fun to experiment with different set ups. But once it comes to making money, efficiency comes before experimenting imo. I'll have fun with other classes AFTER I make my money.

But if i need money for skills/pots/mount/wings. Guess what, im on my 4aps assassin earning myself some coins.

    Season salt, pepper, and garlic powder with zesty steak and or chilli powder will make the best 5aps ramen with -100% channeling to your cholesterol and enough triple sparks to make it out your bowels before it can be digested.
    I can see what you see not,
    Vision milky, then eyes rot.
    When you turn, they will be gone,
    Whispering their hidden song.
    Then you see what cannot be,
    Shadows move where light should be.
    Out of darkness, out of mind,
    Cast down into the Halls of the Blind.

    Everything has its beginnings, but it doesn't start at one. It starts long before that... The world is born From zero. The moment zero becomes one is the moment the world springs to life. One becomes 2. 2 becomes 10. 10 becomes 100. taking it all back to one solves nothing. so long as zero remains... One.. Will eventually grow to 100 again.

    Every good squad can manage to make to hit stage 5 at Rebirth Order quest.

    To me, it's the best way to test the quality of a squad.

    Generally speaking, when squad members communicate and agree on a course of action, like who will tank a particular boss, those are the squads that are fun to be in and have in my limited experience been most successful.
