If your a kaiser that has unlocked the Kaiser Majesty hyper skill, theres a way to have Mihile's stance skill up for pretty much as long as you want. Just buff yourself with the link skill, use Kaiser Majesty (Majesty has a 90 sec cooldown and Knight's Watch is 90 sec duration) and once the CD on Majesty is gone, buff Knight's Watch and use Majesty and repeat.

[quote=xdawnedx]10% boss damage is really not a huge increase.. The average person hits around 100-200K, that really only adds somewhere around 10-20K to their damage, and that's on bosses that do NOT have any damage reduction like pb, cpb, empress, magnus, etc.

People who the 10% boss damage would actually be exceptionally useful to are people who already have it and use it - not the average player.[/quote]

10% boss damage adds up and since its towards all bosses in the game. Its really useful expecially considering your spamming hundreds a time on a boss, the only time 10% would not be useful is if you only train on normal mobs. But it is something you should get sooner or later

Pretty much all of them. It depends on the class you use them on.
Cannoneer and Kaiser link skills for example, will give very big buffs to DemonAvenger.

[quote=Shikiddo]@QuackOutLoud: It's a more useful for Mages because they can increase the time of usage, it's biggest flaw is the actual cooldown which makes it feel not worth the wait until you activate it again.[/quote]

Mine lasts 135 sec so it's only a 45 sec cooldown.

@larryd23: in your case it may useful, but when you have only warrior classes that already have stance skills its not too useful

[quote=UsoppStyle]i got all the link skills except the jett one. i dont even know how it works. can anyone help me with that? so maybe i'll make one in the next patch [/quote]

basically you get random stats on your core that you can share with one char. Typically the stats I get are around 3 to all stats and 2 or 3 att, but it changes every day. You can cube your cores stats to get up to twenty something of stats and then solidify it with star dust solidifiers, which last for 90 days. It's not a great link skill to have, but if you enjoy playing jetts, its cool to get a little boost on your main too.

Mihile's link skill is extremely useful when I help friends kill Zak on my NL. Kind of nice not having to worry about getting knocked off those little platforms.

Cannoneer, Mercedes(unless if you're 200), Phantom. AB.

depends on the class.
also what you do.

if you fight lots of bosses demon slayer is very useful.

if you struggle to level up and need every little bit of EXP you can get, then mercedes link is very helpful.

if you struggle to kill monsters or bosses that are on small ledges because you keep getting knocked off of them, then Mihile link is a must.

if you have very low hp, you should get the kaiser link skill to aid your survivability.

other than that,

canonneer

luminous

Angelic buster

Jett

Phantom

are good for easy damage boosts

All of them are provide a nice boost in the effect they serve, but not all of them are actually useful.
To me the most useful ones are Mercedes (10% EXP), Cannoneer (+15 All stat, 10% HP/MP), Phantom (10% Crit rate, or another number), Luminous (10% PDR or something), Angelic Buster (nice little buff that increases you skill damage by 100% for 10 seconds with a 90 second cooldown), Demon Slayer (10% boss damage; only useful if you're a bosser)

Just whatever you do, don't waste your time making a Mihile for the 10% stance skill which is almost completely useless.

Luminous, demon avenger (soon), xenon (soon), jett if you have NX to enchange it, demon slayer, mercedes for training
cannoneer is ok, kaiser only if you have bad survibility, mihile is mehh because of the cooldown, phantom is good, and AB is mehh too
