@Mapledude22 I would max arrow bomb next then just do whatever you feel like.

@Mapledude22- yes, arrow bomb would be the best thing to max next.

OT: I believe AFA is the better route than BE as well, AFA is going to give you 10 less attack, but the minimum damage raise from BE is really nothing compared to a boosted 30% FA chance and 60% FA damage, equivalent to +87% base damage over having no AFA.

I do however think that SE should be taken before SL, as party zones are the popular training areas now, and not only does SE enhance your whole party, thus leading to better experience, but (especially since DrK got redone) it is likely you will be able to party with an HBer, making the HP bonus from SL not very necessary.

@x3Inferno: Wait so I can max everything and leave hawk at 11? btw what should I max after mastery? I got 5 in booster and 3 in soul arrow, one in hawk, one in flash jump or w/e and oen in arrow explosion thing. I'm thinking I should max arrow explosion?

@Mapledude22 you dont have to do hawk first just make sure to have 10 but tbh even if you add the points in last you will end up with 11 hawk. =D

@everyone saying SE before SL
Spirit Link gives +40% HP. SE is cruddy compared to that alone, not even mentioning the 15% increase in your range.

@x3Inferno: You mean strafe? I know strafe gets replaced by hurricane. Level 10 hawk first? I guess I should max mastery first.

@mapledude22 For Second job get lvl 10 hawk then max everything else. For 3rd max all but straff. Straff=Useless

@manicli6 Your damage would be better if you did BE/AFA/Phoenix/Hurricane. Because 30atk from BE, 20 from AFA and 15%Dammage from Phoenix.

In my opinion max BE first. Why? It gives 30atk vs 20atk at max AND will bring up your bottom range and crit damage.
@monkman123 Spirit Phoenix gives 15% damage at max.
@everyone SE is not that good. BE,AFA,Illusion Step,Hurricane,SP will allow you to do more damage than SE.

This is more of an independent damage build so it doesn't max SE on lower levels i suppose.

Don't you think that SE at lvl 16x is too late?
