I'd not levelled Barrage of Arrows; but in unwined BH the other day found myself using it quite a bit (barb and seeker gather, I stand back and BoA).

What are the best aoes? Level up BoA or save points for future skills?

    The single best AOE is BoA.

    Yes, lvl it. You want it at lvl 10 eventually (or sage/demon). Delta, Lunar, WS, FC etc. all have pulls that you should use BOA on :)

    Level all your AoEs and use them all. Open with Sharpened Tooth Arrow.

    Personally, I left BoA at 5 until I had become demon and maxed out all the other aoes, metal skills, and gotten some demon books. I didn't use BoA all that often until FCC, which I didn't start doing til 95 ish (even then, the skill was at level 5). If you are not in a tw faction, a lower level BoA should be fine for all that PvE stuff until you hit 100. However, if you have the coin, it doesn't hurt to max BoA.

    Pre 89, STA and TB are probably more useful than BoA. Once you get three sparks it becomes much easier to constantly maintain chi for multiple back to back barrages.

    STA should be your pve tool and should be maxed. Probably highest priority skill after stun arrow.

    TB is a little lower priority but is a great followup to STA.

    BoA should start being leveled in your 80s as you venture into FC.

    You eventually want all the skills you use alot maxed (aoes will be one of these, especially for RB/WS/LG/FC/etc)
