Swipe better than sonic roar?

OK ive been thinking of making a WH or a marksman, but that's not the point. I was looking at their skills, and I noticed that Swipe does 300% damage x 4, which is 1200% damage, and hits 8 monsters, healing in the process. SOnic ROar, on the other hand, hits 8 enemies and onlt hits like 1000% damage. Why is a 3rd job skill better than a 4th job skill o.o

@darkorbit6: That's what I thought
How did you find this out though? Did you see a video or play it for yourself/ask someone?

No, she means that its an AoE skill like SD.

OT: Because swipe also "pushes" back monsters and LHC mobs, add the life steal and its a really strong skill. Later on with soul driver v2.0 (sonic roar), I doubt any WH would use the skill other than to hit monsters behind them.[/quote]

They increased Sonic Roar's range and damage in KMS update, but swipe is still much better.

Swipe is also faster than Sonic Roar. In the recent KMS revamp they made Sonic Roar attack 6 times with dealing 200% damage on each attack which makes the damage for Swipe and Sonic Roar the same, but Swipe is still better
