Windwalker or Silver Hunter

I'm trying to decide which of these two classes I should focus on as a possible second main, which one should I pick? Is one currently a lot more viable than the other?

Depends on what type of playstyle you are looking for.

IMO, sh is a bit more clunky atm due to windwalker getting awakening. if u wanna get started right now, and prefer a faster playstyle make a ww and get to practicing comboc. sh is more like aerial chaining of skills when transformed, and a slightly weaker warden/sniper.

I'm actually curious as well. I would love to see some damage comparisons in a controlled nest like IDN normal 4 man solo across each of the archer classes. I often hear people make these references based on word-of-mouth information that xyz does more than abc than seeing actual numbers. I'll take things with a grain of salt for now. ^^

The best case, would be to wait until the Combat Training thing is released in NA, and make comparisons there, due to the design of that mode.

I think all damage comparisons that's not strictly limited to board %s and coefficients, is subject to human error, because of the skill level difference between any two class pilots. The most you would get is an educated guess. Because, no two people have exactly the same skill level in PvE, and there are far too many factors preventing that from being true.


@KamijouKid: Try both and see which you like. Personally, when it comes to deciding a secondary, I go with the class I'm able to transfer my gear and stuff over to. If my Main was an INT class, I'd make my secondary an INT class as well, so I wont have to +15 a different set of Gems. AGI classes have an easier time stacking crit and don't need expensive 3rd crit plates. So, it all depends on preference and budget.

o: Combat training? Where can I hear more about this?

Windwalkers are insanely good atm because the dps of awakened classes are high + the blooming kick awakening stacks with the normal blooming kick = 40% damage amp

I have both Windwalker and Silver Hunter. They don't have equal gear so I can't say definitively, but Windwalker feels stronger in my opinion.

I have both WW and SH and I find SH a lot more fun to play in PvE
But Monkey Roll is still glitched and makes your hitbox stay on the ground when you use it

Also, I haven't really practiced using my WW in PvE much yet, but the videos don't make it look all that exciting. No one air pounces more than once anymore T^T
Heck, I don't even have the SP to max air pounce anymore :P

WW for PvP though!

What videos have you been looking at >_>
