sorry if this was posted elsewhere, but I couldn't find it.

Quick question anyways. My first job was WAR, and our 2nd WS sucked ass- The accepted knowledge was to ignore Iron Tempest(2nd ws) and just use Shield Break(1st ws) until you get Sturmwind(3rd ws)--

So- I just got Thunder Thrust(sounds dirty) and I was wondering if I should use that or stick with Double thrust...and if Raiden is an upgrade, or just say fuck it until Penta...?

Double Thrust--->Thunder Thrust--->Raiden Thrust--->Leg Sweep---> Penta Thrust-->>>

Which ones are worth using?

Thunder and Raiden are both plain awful. You`re pretty much stuck with Double Thrust until Penta and Skewer, I`m afraid.

Thanks-- I was fighting Crabs in Val. Dunes, So I figured that Thunder Thrust would do lightning damage, but I guess I'll Stick to Double Thrust...Thanks!

(Oh- Is Leg Sweep any good?)

leg sweep is stun i think.. sucks too.

its Double Thrust --> Penta Thrust (and maybe Skewer). Penta Thrust will be your WS till 75, untill you get Drakesbane from nyzul Isle.
(Wheeling Thrust might be nice too. noticed, at lvl 66-67, where imps in caedarva mire are too high kinda to get nice penta numbers, wheeling thrust gets nice constant damage)

Leg sweep is just a 1 hit with no significant modifiers.. the stun is handy from time to time though.

Double Thrust >>> Penta Thrust >>>>> Skewer >>>> Wheeling Thrust >>>>> Drakesbane

all others in between are unnecessary, Gimpulse Drive is used in Darkness chains though so, w/e

If I remember right, the Stun effect from Leg Sweep was more potent then the Stun spell. Pretty useful in places where you need to keep a mob stunned like in Dynamis or Einherjar or something like that. But for exp purposes, don't bother with it as it's usually better to do damage to kill mob off faster.

I dunno... In places where you're fighting Gobbies, I always found it better for anyone who can to save TP for a Stun WS (unless they know they can kill the target RIGHT there). Bomb Tosses slow you down a lot more than a bit of damage loss. But Leg Sweep is learned just -after- you stop going to the jungle areas to exp. There won't be nearly as many places for the TC to apply this... which kinda sucks. =|

And yea it is a pretty potent stun... can sometimes last quite a while.

Edit: ****ing Ancient Magic from Anticans. Do not go for epeen damage against mage anticans unless you have an actual stunner.
