Hi, a friend going away for awhile and playing his archer for pvp.. Fimilar to the game but not it skills... because i tried pvp with aim low (skill said it will paralyze you = stun??).. but they can still cast spells/skills etc.. anyone fimilar with this skill?

so far i just used quick shot / stun arrow / bv (for hard to kill barb)..

anyone got tips for kililng super OP class maxed with JOSD? eg: for barb they say use poison?? or thunter shock + lighting skills..but thunder shock takes 2 sparks... i rather 2 spark myself follow with stuns arrow + quick shot.

any advice would be nice. thx

    The problem stems from poor translations... even worse with the latest expansion. Aim Low actually freezes, which stops movement but not skills. To add to the confusion there is now a paralyze debuff - only bms, barbs, and venos (?) have it.

    Might I suggest checking out this wiki page. It's quite dated and many things have changed (most notably the "Green Weed" no longer represents so many debuffs, and the new paralyze skill doesn't appear here), but it should give you a base to start with.

    Metal skills are recommended on barbs as they have much lower magical defense than physical defense. With proper timing, 2 sparks is better spent on metal skills vs a barb than a 2 spark, especially if said archer has done their 2nd rebirth. With an EAs limited anti stuns, most EA 1-2-3-sparks end up wasted to stun, sleep, seal, paralyze, etc, whereas metal skills always hit, and, vs a barb, hit hard. AFAIK poison (and most other DoTs) is pretty much useless these days.

    everybody can say anything about pw my-en or pw ms but that translations was better and easily categorizable:
    stun - no movement no attack
    seal - no attack but movement yes
    paralyze - attack but no movement
    and freeze was only occult ice what was same effect than stun but different icon and stacked with stun

    this like above was said only movement stop, useless vs another archer and vs casters also only if u are in max distance, vs melee usefull if not tidal sage sin or immune movement speed buffed melee

    sage version with seal combination a chance for cover this and seal viable for every class even use immune mov. pot/skill

    back to barbs. my wife isn't end game barb, vit build and primal maxed etc the metal debuff isnt make too high difference on her, her mdef over 26k buffe and pdef 68k full buffed in tiger, but only soulprime and lifeprime s carded so this going higher even the pdef reduction is ~94.35%, well special vit build and not really can kill her anybody in 1-2 hit even caster, so paralyze+auto attack for purge better than metal skills vs barbsm to be honest idk about str barbs, vs them could more effective but overall if u remove cleric buff that increase a bit ur metal debuff effectiveness
