Hye guys...May I ask does Dex make SB spammable?

Also...What's the difference between MagnumBreak from Marine Sphere card then Elemental Scroll?Does Element Scroll does more dmg?

This topic should be on Job Discussion. Anyways here's your answers:
1. Dex only makes SB spammable adding little ASPD. Besides that there's not much Dex can do.
2. Magnum Break from Marine Sphere/Swordsman Skill gives an additional 20% damage that is of Fire property on top of all normal attacks for ten seconds while Fire Elemental Scroll turns your weapon attribute into Fire. Lets say you can do 100 fixed neutral normal damage. If you use Magnum Break you'll deal 100(neutral)+20(fire). If you use Elemental Scroll/Endow you'll deal 100 fire damage.

No, DEX does not make sonic blow spammable.

It indirectly contributes to what makes sonic blow spammable, the aspd part.. but what truly makes sb spammable has to be a mix of ASPD+Aftercast reduction. Animation delay also plays a role in being able to stack sonic blow.

exactly what they said, dex first of all helps the sonic blow not to miss, but not in terms of delay, maybe using items such as expert rings may help but the delay shouldn't be very obvious :s

Shouldn't SB have a fixed delay?

Relics · Dec 13, 2010, 09:08 AM

No, kiel-d, expert rings and any other -aftercast delay in general reduces it's delay. (non renewal mechanics afaik)

IMO, dex doesn't make your SB spammable... yes, it adds a little bit aspd BUT aspd has no effect on the after cast delay of SB.

DEX inceases your HIT rate which makes you hit your target...

Magnum Break adds a small amount fire property attack but why use it if you can use Elemental Scrolls.

Wasn't this a bug a long time ago(Honestly I really don't know, I don't play sinX's nor do have any interest in them since they're useless)

afaik SB's aftercast is reducible with cards/gears even on latest svn..

I also can't find anything in the changelog about it being a bug so mm

Does elemental scroll stronger then MagnumBreak from Marine Sphere card? ~.~

Well, elements do 'more' if your enemy is wearing certain armors, or doesn't resist certain elements.
But magnum break doesn't add an element, it boosts fire property by 20% or so.. but it does not endow the fire element.

The damage added is also quite little iirc.

Ooooo Thank you :O

Adding on this, the damage added is similar to the type of damage spirit spheres add, as in if you cant hit a monster because too high flee/element resistance, it will do the added damage.
