Whenever I come across a thread where seeker's defend their value in TW all the stories seem to involve Gemini Slash. All the stories are about who you killed with GS, how great his armor was but you killed him anyway. Is that all seekers do in TW, run around looking for someone to hit with this skill?

    most of these 'stories' were before earthguard even had the chance to be on par with the multiple R9s on the battlefield. Assuming these guys are in the serious TWs, any enemy that runs into the opponents 'cluster' will immediately be disposed of. Needless to say you dont have that much time running around and spamming small ****. What next is the next best choice on the field?

    however with R9 earthguards out at last, you might hear a diff. set of stories now.

    i use battousai, heartseeker, ion spike whenever i see HA/LA classes, i hit whoever pops when i tab . arme nier (staggering and rock splitting cleave when close enough)for LA/AA's. . for some reason i think i only seem to use Gemini slash when i see a crowd clumped up together or a highly geared/r9 class. .

    So your starting your vortex while your edged blur is still running? The damage must be amazing.

    Sage Unfetter and Blade Affinity may be a factor in their success. b:quiet

    Pretty sure that spark doesn't affect vortex damage.





    Lots of things seekers can do in TW, OP seems a bit trollish though so won't go into it all.

    In TW, up to this point...what I usually do is...
    I try to DD at the front lines with skills that don't cost chi...but staying safe enough to not get killed or being forced to use apothecary, and once my apothecary comes out of cooldown, I will begin looking for nice clusters of enemies that are either buffing up or are already engrossed in the fight...

    Once I find my cluster...there's two ways of really pulling this combo...

    1. Sage Unfetter -> Ironguard + Blade Affinity + Vortex.
    Adsolute Domain* / Faith* to get to safety.

    2. Holy Path* -> Fortify* + Ironguard + Blade Affinity + Vortex
    Use (sage) unfetter to get to safety.

    The reason I include sage unfetter is because I am a sage...and I love the anti stun buff that comes with it. I realize that there are demon seekers out there, to get similar results I would suggest a demon seeker do the following:

    Unfetter -> Fortify* + Ironguard + Blade Affinity + Vortex
    Absolute Domain* to get to safety.

    This means you get the same results of having a good chance to survive, while devastating the enemy... the downside being you are going to be using 190 genie energy...
    Requiring a genie with a minimum of 160 or 170 energy pool and high recovery rate...or
    the full 190 energy... (counting level 1 fortify and level 10 Absolute Domain*)

    For this combo to work even better, I would recommend getting Rewinding Gesture...
    it is one of the skills unlocked by our Celestial Cultivation...and not only boosts our critical hit rate by 15% so we will be even more devastating during vortexing...
    It will also help if you cast it right after the original Unfetter to use it for escape right after canceling vortex, speeding your escape, and for sage seekers eliminating the need to
    use Faith* / Absolute Domain*.

    * = Genie Skill
