    Same skill and gear
    1. Ninja - easiest. most dps. best survive. Far best than any other dps.
    2. brawler - well, we got less tank
    3. gunner and reaper- still much better than another dps
    4. slayer.
    5. zerker
    6. war, sorc, archer - backcrit chance depends on luck too much. Sometimes is good, sometimes is just white damage. war just needs to get dmg buff later.

    Ninja> Brawler >>>>>>>>>>>Gun,Reaper >> Slayer>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> zerker >>>>>>>>>> war, sorc, archer
    People don't even buy +15 War and Sorc VM in market.

    This is correct.

    I really like slayers, they are mobile, fun to play, have nice combo skills with good burst damage. But damn the animation locks, it's just awfull how you can't cancel some skills, despite their animations being long and slow. That feeling when you see a deadly boss attack coming and you can't iframe because you're trapped in a animation lock...

    You need to cancel animation lock with overhand strike.

    Cast Heart thrust or Knockdown stirke - during anime, use overhand strike and then evasive rolling.

    If you need to learn overhand strike cancel. or it's going to be hard in hardmode dungeon and pvp

    @dinners yes, I know, but you're right when you say it's hard. At least for me. It's too much trouble when you need to iframe asap.

    I like slayer. Weaving in and out of boss range to pour some stylish zweihander slashes looks cool. But I can't seem to crit THAT much on IoD bams. Sure. I'm on DN only and I'm going up against tier 3 IoD bams, but I have way over 200 total crit factor. I know I tuned the weapon for CF and that's bad for dps(because I refuse to waste an etching on DN), but if I can't even crit with over 200 CF + carving, there wouldn't be much use for more crit damage. Not sure what else I'm doing wrong. Maybe I should just go the pain of obtaining Slaughter gear for her and see what it does. Then again, I have other characters I want to upgrade too. Hard to decide.

    @Nopi I'm not really sure, but maybe the IOD bams have a high crit resist? That's possibly the reason if you have 200+ crit and the blue crit glyphs

    I do have some glyphs that upgrade crit chance on certain skills like double CF on next attack for overpower, which I use on a triple CF heart thrust. In fact, I have activated every crit factor glyph on my skills list. Still, I don't see as many crits from even those. I shall try running dungeons again with the character to see how my crit frequency does there. Maybe those bams do have a lot of crit resist.

    My slayer has +213 crit factor and i get like 60% crit rate most of the time.
    The crit factor glyphs are essential.
  • SylvietteSylviette ✭✭✭
    Attacking from behind has roughtly x1.8 chance of critting compare to attacking from the front or side.
    As dps, always try to attack from behind.
  • NopiNopi ✭✭✭✭✭
    After testing, the problem seems to be the bams themselves because of two things. First, they do seem to have big crit resist. Second, the bam is always trying to look at the solo player, so it's inevitable that some attacks are done to the front or sides, reducing overall dps. Tested the class in dungeons like DFnm for the first time and everything went really well with her DPS. Crits were very frequent.

    BTW I removed the crit rolls from my weapon and replaced them with attack speed. I know the best rolls deal with upgrading damage and back damage but I certainly love the speed up. And I still slapped enraged damage and flat damage.
