Worth moving back to a Shadower?

A while back nexon gave us prot scrolls and safeties for hot time, and I made myself a 179 attack fearless katara (61+118). It has 8 enhancements, 3line unique with 20% boss on one line. There also is a 25% boss neb.on it.

Now I used to be a Shadower, and im thinking of going back to Shadowerhood. I will have 12b+ the money from selling the katara for a new dkhanj.

I know shad's are a little higher on the dpm charts than dualblades. but its also very nice downing livyathan in commerci in 6 seconds with te dualblade actives. Overall, at the end of the day I would like to see an increase in damage, but I just want to ask you people experienced in this field if it would be worth converting back to shadowerhood in the long run. I personally enjoy the the shadower's style alot more. BUT if it means ill have a higher increase in damage if i dmp the 12b on my equipment, I will also consider that

If it makes any difference, I'm in broa and I have 154% boss, 450k clean with my katara equipped. Without my katara, I have about 320k.

GO SHADDDD DDD The 12 Bill will easily get you a 3L Legendary Dkhanjar scrolled. Go for it and experience a great class

[quote=SunsetChaos]tbh the attack speed isn't that slow especially when you're using SW knife and MPE pots, it's just that they hit less lines but higher damage with assassinate

Lol that's too godly. In order to hit those numbers he probably has like a 7-8m range.

Obviously you have gear from being a DB, the only change will be a DKhanjar. Those can be pricey, but 12b for the DKhanjar is likely more than you'll need, but you could easily spend 10b on one. I don't have a DB that's equal level to my Shadower, nor do I play it often so I can't speak to the differences overall. From what I have heard and seen, Shadowers are simply more well rounded. I am often chosen over DB's in DH2 parties and I boss just fine. You'll take a hit in the bossing area for sure, but I don't think it will be so major that you can't effectively boss.

I've personally never played DB, but I love my shadower and with the buff in KMS, it's just going to get better~

shadowers just got a huge buff in KMS. so in the long run... yes it's definitely worth switching to a shad

You'll definitely see an increase of damage regardless without the 12b. But you'll be seeing less lines and slower attacking speed. You're switching from a fast paced bossing class to a slow, but strong all around class. But you should already know that.
