Which would be better?

Hello everyone one!

I was wondering would I be dealing more damage using Sage Quickshot and then skill spamming or just auto attacking? PvE wise.

Extra info:
Sage (celestial)
Full G16
G16 Bow +5 Has -int


And I wanted to ask I am hopefully in the future getting my first R9 piece (After ring) What would be best to go for? I was thinking the belt or bow first. Reasons being I have a crappy belt. >.< I do have the R9.3 bow mold though, not the belt yet. Edit: I might have it by the time I get it though.

the bow costs almost as much as the whole armour set.
the belt costs a bit more than an armour piece.

G16 set bonus doesn't include the bow right? In that case, I'd go with bow first. Keep your G16 set bonus til you can get more than 1 piece of r9.
Also, skill-spam is never gonna do more damage than auto-attack. Exception being some warsong pavs, ofc.

For your first question: autoattacks, hands down, for PvE unless you need mag damage.

For the second: since you already have full g16 armor, yeah, go bow first all the way to r9r3. After that, do armor once you can either get the full r9 set OR you can third-cast at least 3 armor pieces. Getting the belt sooner than that is an option, but you'll want to weigh the benefits of getting the belt first vs. getting 3 of the cheaper r9 pieces to 3rd cast earlier, if that's the path you'd take.

I see. At the current point in time I only have the leggins mold and the bow so I will go for the bow first and try and still work on getting the rest. if I don't get anymore mold between now and after the bow I'll probably just try and get the full set.

Thank you Jarkhen! You should sing for us more on wc. b:thanks
