G16 Assassin

Badonkajonck - Archosaur

So I have to find a use for my G16 armour once I get my R9 stuff. I was thinking of just rolling a sin on the same account and stashing it. What are people's thoughts on Full G16 sins. I would possibly make him sage to.

Why not make an archer instead? Seems pointless to have a G16 Sin when you got a R9 sin xD

Sorry forgot to mention the toon I am working on R9 is an archer. b:chuckle

mmmm Im guessing he is an archer? seeing as he is asking what people think of a g16 sin, he would know if he played a g16 sin.

G16 sin for pvp is not bad and not great, its okay... same problem you might of found if you had g16 bow, attack lvls and no SBH. This can be countered by having a lower grade bow to purge then switching to your damage bow. Not so with GoF which works off of damage of the weapon. Spikes and GoF/Crits make a huge difference to a DPH assassin, due to crit damage increase and insane crit rates. First hit 1k, next could be 5k+.

If you are looking at using your g16 armour for pve then probably more efficient to stick it on a seeker or bm, then you will have a aoe char for pve. This may not be the preferred armour type but g16 LA isnt going to be that bad on them i would say. I dont know just an idea you could look at.

Either way if you are making a sin for farming i think the general APS set will be more beneficial.

Hope this helps! b:cute

I am currently working on a aps sin to help farm (On a separate account). I have had the idea for using the set for a bm and seeker. For a Bm if I used marrows accordingly I think it would be pretty good. I was asking because I just don't want bag slots being taken up and as well as have a armour set just sit there and go to waste. I ask here because people on archo have a tendency to rage at you for asking questions. The sin would mainly be used PvE Bh and just messing around with. Maybe some PvP.

full g16 sin will be fine for bh.
delta is dph, sot has the antiaps buff and skillspam is viable, aba on a lesser extend, metal is 60% aoe, 40% aps so meh

even if it's LA it will be ok for bm/seeker too, heh I'm making an AA seeker XD

Sounds good. I think I will roll with la G16 seeker and possibly bm and seeker to. thank you guys! More opions are welcomed curious to know what others think. Do let me know how that AA seeker works out. xD

Yeah had a few LA bms on morai that didnt do too bad at all. If you have a sin on another account and its mainly going to be for pve then i would say use the G16 LA on another char.

If you want to pvp on an assassin i would say use the sin on the other account with pve gear, try fighting similar geared players buff CoTD see how you like it. Making a 100 sin primarily for G16 armour will be such a waist if you find you dont like DPH playstyle and barely play it on it.

Personally i love playing DPH sin it is incredibly fun, if hard to master. Lots of the old aps sins on my server grated. When the change from press 1 key and aps anything to death changed tooo smash all keys to win.

g16 sins are fun! it was enough for me to solo 6 PV runs with 11.2k hp buffed anyways :P

i was the first full g16 LA nirvana in my server and i could feel the difference of using it both for pvp and pve. people had it harder to kill me even if they have r9. as PotatoHeadQR says, alot of BHs are DPH now anyways so its not too bad.

id say get g15s with GoF or r9 if you got a lot of spare coins haha, instead of g16. works mint with s3 nirvy. my setup was full g16 nivry gears r9 belt and dags tt99 phys neck r9 ring and Sign of Frost chaos rings.

on a side note tho, i have the same situation as you cept its reversed lol. i got a full s3r9 sin now and i didnt know where to put my g16 gears so i decided to make an archer. figured my spirit blackhole bow would be heaps good for him :P

You can definitely plevel a sin to 100 and using your G16 to do BH gambling on for coin, but unless you do no PVE at all at some point you'll want an aps set, lol. G16 sin in PVE vs single target is just so frustratingly slow.

im not really fan full g16 gear was okay against first r9, but for pve is ok,delta bh or do some griding idk xD but for pvp you wish you have gof some times when you really need that boost to finish a battle sadly
