I'm not sure I got the jest of your objective and you kinda lost me about the purpose. Sorry but I'd rather have straight conversation than quizical riddles of techniques. It all seems like a joke rather than informative information.

so.. back when the damage rankings didnt reset. i could hit damage equal to the 15th highest hitter in the server. i was the only non 101 or 100 that even made it onto the dmg rankings,

the goal is dmg, because building a tank seeker is pointless,
my reason?
all the vit and stuff you hadd for tanking, will never take aggro from a sin or bm.
so go try using your method of hitting high dmg. then come back an d use this method.
tell me whos worked better

good point on the seekers' goal working towards getting more dmg instead of building it like a tank.
I have a rank 9 seeker crit build with almost full DOT on my gears and i can kill other rank 9s quite easily. Sure, if you go full JOSd and full str, u'll survive longer but what's the point if all you do is take damage and do nothing in return? am i right? xD
n i m the only crit build DOT seeker in RT from what ive seen so far. b:chuckle

Fixed.

Other HA R9s (Barbs, BMs, other Seekers) particularly if sharded with JoSDs themselves can still tank your hits quite easily... I would know since I also have a R9 Seeker (+12 weapon and 105 attack levels). Furthermore, there is a reason you are the only crit build on your server. Because when you go full crit build you sacrifice so much strength (which increases your base damage) for dex that the times you don't crit, even Nirvana geared casters can survive your hits.

I can understand the heart shatter, as that lasts long enough.
But why the hell would you add gemini sword stance, THAN leave to hell, get debufed, and than come back? Spirit bore is gone long before you return.


PS, you might wanna reread Invigorate skill discription
I quote: "The skill will expel when you switch to another map."
In stupid people language, this skill is purged when you go to hell, or when you go back to the world map. So it fails if you try to combine it with your awesome little combo

+ why the *** use soulsever minuet (gemini stance) when northern debuff mroe and even sacrificial slash (shroud one) debuff even more when ya quid pro quo the def lvl decrease

I have 130 attack lvl and combined with our sacrificial slash skill and frenzy, i get to around 180 attack lvl for 15 secs. and i dont have any problem killing other HAs as well unless they're full JOSD. I can one shot full rank 9 archers too if i use my skill right. I guess it depends how you play.
And I quite disagree with you on the crit build part. Ive played around with both builds, first i was a pure str build and later changed to a crit build. Cuz, from the way my gear is set up, i only sacrifice around 800 dmg while gaining a huge boost of 33% crit, which has a high chance to crit. So if you're looking at it at a statistical way, I would say being a crit build seeker with full DOTs is better at endgame since you will need those extra attack lvls to kill high lvl rank 9 JOSD sharded ppl anyways. I mean, sure u'll tank a lot if ur a JOSD seeker but on the way, u'll also have a freaking hard time killing other rank 9s who have JOSD of their own.

i was squading with baka, and he told me sac slash was a debuff,. the ucurse lasts 30 seconds, you may not e able to use soulsever, but i added it in for tryers, you could qpq both sac slash and curse. which would be sweeeet!

that's right. there's no freaking way to kill a fully JOSD class in time unless ur full DOT seeker urself. Again, we r only talking about seeker's perspective ofc.
And to answer ur first question, i dont have str +45 tome yet but thats my endgame tome, which i will have some day b:sad

lol r we really showing off? if so, i got this screenshot of me hitting a bm for 50k and a barb for 25k. The 160 dex and rest on str has nothing to do with being able to one shot others. it all depends on ur zerk and ur weapon attack that u get from the refines.
