Most effective Mighty Strikes

you think SATA SC with 2hr and full buffs beat that think might be close
 
SATA does nothing for Mighty Strikes other than transfer hate & guaranteed first hit if behind the mob.

SA's critical hit is exactly the same as a Mighty Strikes hit, damage-wise.
 
Mighty Strikes.......hah. Only good when accurate and when DA procs. Even then - Rampage can still Critical and DA without MS.llloolll....

DRK has a subpar grade in axe skill, so they'd be whiffing on those rampages more often then their Guillotines, though Guillotine is later. Last Resort is not 5 minutes, it's 3. Souleater is not 6, it's 5. Cover is 3. Cover, even with AF1 enhancement, only lasts roughly 20 seconds, so if the mob isn't going to die soon after, the DRK is. A DRK stacking all of their buffs for one big WS is not a very good one, or your party is taking so long to kill it doesn't matter, which is no better.

Ahem, ermk derail time.

Yeah I wouldn't recommend DRK/NIN at lower levels, except for the levels before Guillotine. Last Resort is 5 minutes and Souleater is 6 minutes. Cover gives enough time to put shadows back up and cast Drain. Souleater is meant to be used for Chain#4, #5, or if your party is good enough #6. It's always great watching a mobs HP go from 40% to squat.

This is the great thing about DRK. They get to use a 2 hour every 6 minutes. Bloodweapon is nothing without Souleater. Souleater deals more damage than MS from the examples I have seen. (Yoshiki Warrior[e.body, ridill, n.head, etc] 1600 rampage VS Kiiro Dark Knight 1800 rampage on Deco's) Shes told me a few Rampages have landed for 2000+ since she got a Brutal earring. Nothing short of amazing...

Axe skill is pretty sad at lv240. Throw some merits into it and it is nearly equivalent of a warriors @ 256. Chose the Beastly Earring? Perfect for Rampage. 261 skill. Only 8 levels behind Warrior.

DRK will always buff their WS. Absorb STR is a fucking God send. Turns us into monsters..or something.


Imagine STR77+60......Then cast Absorb STR >=) Friggin lethal.
