    Scythe is love. Scythe is life. Well actually Scythe is dead to the enemies of the Stormbringerb:chuckle

    Well I wanna play the stormbringer cause it has the scythe. I would have played stormbringer even if it was a lame class with nothing good to offer that would have come. And only for the scythe. But the good thing is that it has alot of things to offer.b:victory
    And if you read the skill description brought to us by Fail_BM on Asterelle( sorry if i spelled wrong the names) thread you would have seen that Stormbringer aka Moon Fairy has alot to offer through skills not just casting while moving.

    And yes SCYTHE IS BADASSS

    Now if PWCN will make a class with a whip( similar to FiveVenom in swordsman) one day I will be more than happy.

    We don't count and get no love for our bootleg scythes.

    Which elements does the duskblade use? Meaning earth, fire, metal, wood, water.

    Personally, I played both. And find them both to be quite fun.

    On my Duskblade, I have no issues with chi, mana consumption is a bit high but eh, I'm not too concerned, we get free charms daily until lvl 60 so why worry too much about that. I adore the speed and efficiency and I really like that they can teleport to the target seamlessly where as on a sin, you have to wait for the long cooldown (I mean absolutely no offense) They do decent enough damage though from what I can tell the stormbringers are the heavy hitters of the race.

    On my Stormbringer, that movement while casting is incredible, who wouldn't love it, though I think it would be better with a bit better controls instead of clicking or holding 'W' to run as you cast, kinda like the controls in WoW. I'm sure I'll get the hang of it eventually. Kiting is definitely an effective method with this class, say you're in a squad and the team is about to take heavy damage from a mob that explodes, a stormbringer can "kite" it away with ease and avoid harm to themselves as well as the squad in the process. And solo? Hell, kite one mob at a time, sure it takes a bit but it works. They hit hard, and don't have super long cast times. I particularly enjoy the attack that stuns the target. Super useful, hell its saved my *** quite a few times.


    As someone who plays a Veno usually so I don't have to squad with anyone else, I really enjoy both classes :) So my vote: Both because why not.b:victory

    Kiting is hugely important factor in PvP and so being able to cast while moving is insane.

    Usually you have to kite then attack, then kite, then attack; but now you can kite and attack simultaneously... Though some of the stronger skills.. can't be cast while moving....

    Also, I hope they introduce the moving and casting across all classes; at least for some of the skills.
    b:thanks


    However, with all the jumps and stuns and control that Duskblades have, they seem to be designed to counter Stormbringers. Only time will really tell I guess. b:pleased

    I really wanna know how sins and other melee class gonna be able to kill stormbringers since Storms got 6 skills that can be cast while moving( one of them stuns, one oh them hits 3 times in a row), got a knock back aoe that works in pvp, and a skills that goes like this:

    Electrostatatic Discharge:

    Charge your enemy with static electricity that discharges as your target moves. For every 1 meter your target moves it takes it X% of base magic dmg plus xxxx as metal dmg. Last x seconds.

    how yu melee gonna fight against a class that keeps moving and deals yu dmg in same time?
    And also yu take dmg for moving only b:chuckle

    b:bye

    I had the same dilemma StormBringer or DuskBlade. I slide to melee chrs so I took the DuskBlade. Leveling in the Celestial Vale was easy. Made level 22 in 1 day. Fail? no way! Made it to level 45 in 4 days. Leveling goes fast. Do need some help with the higher dungeons however. Next dungeon is the Secreat Frostcover Grounds to get the Royal Cussies.
    Still a question on build. Using +3 dex and +1 vit and +1str each level. Gonna need 74str for Swift wind armor at level 70 so planning for that now. I welcome any suggestion any one has!b:laugh
