[quote=AngelxHoly]Yeah, exactly!

I mean, at CD's dark chain was great for collecting mobs. Same with drakes. Dark chain is like the ultimate tool for a BaM.
Finisher is sort of "eh".
But like I posted before, in [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRs_R5CGTcI]this[/url] video, you can see excellent use of Finisher.[/quote]

Ah, I've been playing like that anyways, seems fine, I'm more comfortable with finisher anyways

[quote=Maske]I haven't used it since first job. I don't know why, I just find teleporting and spamming Quad Blow (because I'm in the second job right now), with the occasional Dark Chain shot for those not in my reach to be the most effective.[/quote]

I used it during 1st job and early 2nd job.

Now that I have maxed dark chain and maxed 4b, I dont use it as much. Using DC to gather and then using 4b is easier than tele-casting 4b and then telecasting again for Finisher (or even just standing still).

i use it atm since it's quicker than using qb again, and i don't consistently one-hit

ohhhh, didn't even know that 20% wep def, kay I'll continue to use finisher heh

depends.
on boss finisher does a really great damage cuz of the ignore def

i think its useful since it ignores 20% wep defence

Not sure but my best friend who is a battle mage uses his finisher alot. He's level 50 not sure if this helped.
