Hello :D Help!

This is a farming toon.

I dont have sins, want sins or like sins, but from what i understand, APS is not the way to go for pvp sins.
Since you alreay got the gear for this farming toon, i would however upgrade the weapon to G16 and get those 40 attack levels. And well i guess the reason you use that help is because you already got it +10.... On that goes with your leggings would be a much better choise though.

those are really nice add's on them g15's b:victory. One good thing g16 has over g15 zerk's aside more dps is no hp loss. One thing to think about when upgrading gear for a farming char is if the upgrade is really worth it. The problem with g16's just like the old g15 days is how many rolls is it going to take me to get x,x and x. before it was gof/ss and int, and possibly a patt add, now its 1x int, 2x or even 3x that most look for. you could get int on the first roll or 100 rerolls later. When i reroll'd my g16's the last time i was just looking for good add's for tw/nw. I got lucky with 2x int and range, so i kept them as it opened a very nice door for me. which was switching out the old tt99 orns for my ws belt and cube neck, and with a tome still be at 5aps and eventually switching to sage. The difference with me is this is one of my 2 main toons, so upgrading the gear is worth it for me.

with you upgrading your gear could end up being an added cost you do not want. remember a farming char is no use if it turns into a money pit. get it to where you can do what you need to do with it, and put the funds you gain were they belong with you main char. there are countless posts on how some nablet wants to spend billions of coins on a farming char with absurd defenses and damage that is hardly any more efficient at farming than sins with 1/4 of the gear and far less cost.

running warsong does not take a op sin, running most bosses in tt does not either. be smart keep your gear the way it is, refine the daggers to 10 and your leggs as well. with that setup you can farm just about anything in the game. i know this because i did the same on my sin with less hp and r8 daggers @ 3.33 sparked.

good luck and have fun doing it b:pleased

Even though i dont have pvp experience as well as no sin experience, i think i understand enough of it to clarify a little more:

You HPs and defence provides you about 15k effective HP for both magic and physical. That is extremely little. 15 defence levels from the free blessing would make it some 17k, still extremely little. As your damage is devided by 4 in PvP, that means people need to hit you for 60-70k. Many of the R9s and very well equiped G16s will do this consistently without the need for crits, zerks or debuffs. The mediocre G16s will need 2 hits or they may still 1 hit you with a crit a zerk, or HF or certainly with a combination of those.

meanwhile, in pvp, your targets dont usually stand still very much so it is very hard to get value out of your APS and you dont get to spark as easilly to make it really shine anyways.

If you dont go for APS, you can wear full g16 sets providing some defence levels and better refinements as well as a cube neck and warsong belt. Since you wont be needing the pan gu anymore, this can all be done with the same budget and you will easilly get double the effective HPs.

Thats why I dont think this is a pvp toon, but a farming toon instead, because as said, when its about farming, this build is the best of em. (with G16 weapon)

Why would you NW with your alt ? To abuse the system, or because your main is even less suitable for NW ?

b:laugh with more n more rrr9 mages future or aps sins killing mage classes easily is getting darker n darker XD b:laugh
