    maybe itd work, if the debuff didnt work like it does on bosses.
    if it did, youd have to kill that barb fast :P

    It does work on characters. Archer has to be really stupid if they dont use it on a barb. In tw its an archers aoe that uses no spark and does ok damage. Sage sharptooth when someone gets that it means 1/5 less life for chars and regular or demon archers u still lose 16% hp if maxed for 30 seconds + damage.

    always use it on barbs, bm is most of the time i use it.
    My body is made of swords.
    Iron is my blood, and glass is my heart.
    I have overcome countless battlefields undefeated,
    Without once retreating,
    Nor once being understood.
    Always alone, intoxicated with victory on the hill of swords.
    Therefore, there is no meaning to that life.
    Perhaps this body is nothing but a sword itself.

    I think shapened tootharrow on barb works, at least my lvl maybe? i beat a barb once my lvl by using said skill then lowering his metal def, then just pounding him with metal skillz, and he had a charm too. fail barb? or is it just easy to kill barbs at this lvl?

    easy at 4x. really you should be using sharptooth on all classes. at 9x with level 10 you save a lot of damage with it and it is a decent damaging skill.

    i dont bother wasting time with sharpen on robe classes, usually its just stun>relentless courage+normal atks to death. if no relentless i just normal atk and maybe use aimlow and/or extreme poison

    for pve and hmm for tt yeah it's realy recommended!

    for pvp and tw yeah I'd max it too! aoe that don't consume chi do decent dam, cast pretty fast, and the debuff is nice too, but yeah if you are 1vs1 with a robe there is no point using it when you can kill in two or three hits...but yeah if more ennemies it's a good aoe:P

    I rarely us it unless im pvp with a BM or Barb...I tend to PvP with players like 10 - 20 lvls higher so I rarely win anyway..but I think its a good skill..and is it true to wait to start maxing skills after lvl 59?...alot of archers on Sanctuary server tell me this...im only lvl 55 though

    probaly because deadly shot/take aim/stun arrow is better oppeners against most classed due to their low/medicore hp.

    16% of 5k hp (312.5k hp...5k hp is the average hp of a lvl 70-80 LA right?) or a stun+some other skills.

    i only use this skills on barbs and BMs for the debuff. ropes die easy and LA just needs a crit or 2

    16% of 5k hp is 800. Almost another hit. Not to mention it also helps you bypass the heiro.

    I fought a 9x ep in cube and it's a perfect example of why sharptooth pwns: (ep had around 6.5k hp)

    sharptooth 1.3k - ep now has 4160/5460 hp
    stun 1.4k - ep now has 2760/5460 hp
    take aim 3k - bypass heiro, dead ep.

    16% is amazingly helpful for bypassing the enemies heiro or saving 1k+ less damage each heiro tick.

    if that cleric is any where near decent he should have plumed asap, he should easily be able to get plume up before u can stun him if u open up with sharpentooth instead of stun. since the total time for sharpen 1st then using stun is like 5 sec or so i believe.

    most good players react almost instantly upon landing in pk rooms of cube some even go in with plume already casted.

    that's beside the point, in fact it only reinforces my point that sharptooth is invaluable in pvp. if the cleric would have plume barrier'd 16% less hp would be even more beneficial because most of your attacks will hardly hurt them until plume barrier is off. start fighting properly geared 9x's and say 16% less hp isn't amazing.

    16% of a 22k hp opponent.

    wow.

    anyways, yeah. -16% off of me is -900 or so hp. that's a difference, knowing archers my level ususally hit less than that without crits. it's like hitting twice in 1 hit. devoted is right.

    i still plan on taking my chance with my 3 normal atks i will get in using stun+relentless since as soon as they plume i drop and go for something else(speaking for TW) if its pvp i am still not sticking around tanking a cleric who gets plume up and by the time plume is down chances are sharpen is going to wear off before u get any significant dmg in, if its an wizard maybe... i considered it but so far most wizzies i met are killable with just normal hits under relentless. only a few wiz i plan to use sharpentooth on and until more wiz proof 2 be actually high in hp and defense ill stick to just overwhelming their charm in 3-5seconds.

    maybe in another few weeks ill notice more less squishy cleric/wiz but well so far ST is a waste of time for me on most of them

    I was saying it for the robe that die fast, yeah if you got one with 5k hp or more it's really good to use either to bypass the charm, either if charm tick he 'll still have less hp, and btw you don't use metal debuff and metal skill on a plumed cleric?b:shocked
