    To be honest I cant see many GV squads straying from the basic setup.. I myself would love to get some gvs like I did with my BM.. I went from 71 to 85 in a week due to gvs.. But haven't been able to find anyone interested in taking a sin along. Perhaps ill make a squad and see how it goes.. But with that being said we really will only take the role of a veno really if even that.

    Well, I wish I could be of more use here but having little to no info makes for a sizable issue.

    I was using cube today to get to arch when a random inv came up with squad of ppl requesting me to join their gamma squad. Having never done this on my veno even I was quite worried. However if you wish to do this I suggest either setting up your genie with things to aid your squad to amplify your usefulness or create a second with that purpose in mind.

    Mire>Subsea Strike> aoe with cherries on the pic lol, somewhat regret not taking a pic as we do some pretty damn good dmg along with all the crits.

    Sadly the group decided to let the boss live too long I suppose and it timed out while we were taking out the mobs that drop beans in the other portal.

    Other than that, sin is still a primarily single target class and we aren't well timed for keeping up with a squad in this manner unless you happen to have experience and a good squad of friends.


    making a long post longer... the boss with an AOE ball of lightening over your head hurts like hell, generally since bosses are in the category of single target we make wonderful DD's(pulled off the barb reaming with just spark and normal/accidental of course) but this guy you need pots, some crab meat, and a HP charm or your **** is gone.
    I can see what you see not,
    Vision milky, then eyes rot.
    When you turn, they will be gone,
    Whispering their hidden song.
    Then you see what cannot be,
    Shadows move where light should be.
    Out of darkness, out of mind,
    Cast down into the Halls of the Blind.

    hmmmm did several rb with sin already, I'd suggest you to take earthquake genie skill to feel usefull xd either max your aoe.
    You kinda do the veno job, nothing special bout it, try to use chill of the deep too, dunno what else to say, if u know rb u know u can do a little in there but well of course one other dd 'd be better in the squad than youb:laugh

    srsly?
    :<
    without bonus beans not even venos be needed. (T.T)' sadly
    ever since teh tideborn eated the gamma bonus beans....
    me found that having the "rainbow squad" minus a veno, + a cleric
    worked out wonderfully.
    we are winnar.

    (got past the lack of veno bean collector using great time management.)
    :3

    (tried having an assassin attempt to take the BM spot.....did the quests okie but um...lack of aoe stuns and such didn't really make up for it also assassin's can't really alpha male like BMs can.)

    ya....
    me think the only thing a lack of bonus beans since the expansion did was....
    just encourage RB gamma runs to be done with 2 clerics
    or 3 Wizards/Archers

    (but 2 clerics be Niiiiiiice~~~~~ frigging purify be soooo win~~~)

    2 clerics works out great in rb because you can purify the mag/phys def debuff that mobs do
    you can back up heal

    i have done rb where the barb didnt need a charm because he had 2 clerics in the party

    don't forget purify bleed on the DDs....
    bleed hurts so much...especially when and if cauterize fails lol.

    well um
    honestly assassin's don't really have a place in RB.
    mayhaps psychics
    but any decent BM do a better job then an assassin can.
    sowwy to say.
    X_X'

    and no you can't replace a venomancer....(since you guys already wrecked their roll to get bonus beans already....and yes a BM can do the job just fine.....we just went in aoed/focus fired the mobs...)

    also in Delta venomancers need to lure bosses so that still leaves no spot open at delta for assassins.

    subsea strike amp stacks with the BMs amp heaven flame might be of some use. i dont rly have any experience with rbs much.

    but i think subsea strike (aoe amp which stacks with the BM aoe amp) and earthen rift (which is 400% weapon dmg at max) would be good moves just to help the group kill mobs faster.

    and who says a sin cant lure o.O? also ppl should realize that sins work BEST with a BM and barb. if u have both a BM and a barb in a squad then u should include a sin along to work with those 2 classes. psys work best when working together with wizzards and clerics. so if u have a wizzard and cleric in squad its best to include psy so they will work with those 2.

    so barb BM sin wiz cleric psy would be a pretty good combination. psy uses there back up support skills to help out the wizzies and clerics so there job will be easier and sins use there skills that work in conjunction with BMs and barbs to help make there job easier.

    its even said on the official rising tides mini site that these 2 classes are best used when in parties working together with squads and pretty much suck when there on there own or not matched up properly.

    not to mention that endgame fist BMs and endgame sins would be epic badass DDers when working together. both can get 5atk/sec if a sin can get rank 8 LA chest and nirvana daggers and demon sparking. add bloodpaint to that which adds 2% blood suck for the sin and BM and they will be nearly unstoppable together. around 100 HP being healed per hit and they both hitting at 5 times per second and thats 500 HP healed every second lol. thats pretty damn godly imo... they probaly wont even have to use food or get there charms ticked.

    but this is talking about in squads in general. not just RB. i can easily see any fist BM and sin soloing BHs and TTs and etc with just the 2 of them without much of a problem at all.

    Imperfect RB squads have been around a lot longer than TB have. For maximum fun, try 2 Wizzies/Archers, 2 BMs, 1 Barb, 1 Cleric.

    well in terms of fun in a squad it doesnt matter who is in it. as long as the ppl u are with are cool and u have fun whether its a succesful run or a failed run ud still have fun. so u dont rly have to have certain classes for it to be fun. hell u can have a squad of full Venos or full Barbs and it can still be fun.

    its all about the ppl behind the char that makes a squad fun or not.

    IMO Psychics are made for rebirth with their AoE power + AoE stun. If the psychic and BM can coordinate well, the psychic can stun with then the BM follows up (mainly due to the fact stun draws aggro, so best if the BM stuns 2nd) In fact i believe it'd work out better than double BM because Psychic's have DD power thus making mobs die faster.
    Navarre was your everyday veno, until she learned her true form. Now she's fox walloping and purging over and over again.. all for a deep stinging, head hunting, wind pushing Assassin.
