    Lets see.....

    Anytime you have a bunch of mobs together, like in AOE grinding situations or clearing FF.

    Any boss fight. You going into fox form to amp, than you have to wait to go back to human, might as well throw in a myriad while you wait.

    PVP. Wouldn't you love for the enemy to have 0 pdef or mdef? Same thing, go fox, debuff, amp, myriad, back to human. Or in TWs, find a pile of enemies and do fly byes myriads.
    Too often we loose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown, BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap that mother#$@%#^! upside the head.

    Yep what Ice said...great for zhenning/GV(RB)/Frost/bosses/PVP.


    I just recently acquired this 79 skill and tried it out on a low 9x barb. Although it was a gank (me and 2-3 others), as soon as I perged, amped, and myriad, he dropped in 2 seconds. b:chuckle

    I love it.. When you'r soloing TT and you can't stop spam healing to use skills, you use this, for it doesn't have channeling time.

    Use on Crystal in TW - Mind Break / Armor Break with ~50 people attacking - well worth the MP!
    in griding ? no

    Depends on what and how you're grinding. There are some mobs that aren't worth my time casting other spells on because my pet does so much more damage, and I'm in Fox because they're phys. The only other thing I'm using the MP for is to heal.
    in tt ? bleed/poi damage of only 4.5k using 900 MP = not worth it

    Mind Break, Armor Break well worth it! Also, MP is not an issue when you have clerics and Wiz's that can fill your MP every 60s.

    Chances are, if you took aggro: you'll be out of spark for Feral Concentration. It also takes 3 seconds just to start. Bramble Hood and Summer Sprint are much more useful. I very rarely use FC.

    I really like Myriad, but there are downsides. If someone already cast Ironwood: it supposed to go 20s. If it's overwritten by Armor Break, it may be cut short. Same with Mind Break and Cleric's Elemental Seal. The Breaks only last 9 seconds unfortunately.
    Be kind: Help the GMs to depopulate the servers.

    You have bramble Array to save you in higher levels, when you have spare sparks to throw around. The above posts all have wonderful uses for myriad, its also much of a convience to use it in rebirth delta, where it makes things way faster, and saves lives sometimes with how quickly it can get things to drop. Its well worth the investment.

    advice to fledgling archers:
    Going sage is like drunken sex, at first she may look good, but when you wake up the next morning; you'll look at her and go WHAT HAVE I DONE.

    I use it all the time in BH89 and FB99. It's especially handy when facing bosses. Fox Form -> Amp -> Myriad -> Shift out. It also helps a lot when you have big groups of mobs, no matter where you are.

    If you lure a TT boss with bramble on, somehow fail (pet is dead before aggroes the boss) and you haven't enough chi to cast bramble again (or it's on cooldown), then I would say get Feral first, it saves time to get 2 sparks back instead of 1. It's also amazing life-saver anytime you haven't 2 sparks for bramble, just combine it with genie skill Fortify and you are invulnerable for 10s b:shy
    Myriad rainbow is great thing, especially if you hit mdef reduction. MP cost doesn't matter because of soul transfusion and cleric/wiz in party or leech if you can, unless you're using MP charm. Haven't tried in TW yet, but it must be interisting experience b:laugh
