    Wow! How come your transition from finale to stone barrier is so fast? (I know its a wrong focus but yeah I wanna know)
    And sorry I don't know if I miss it but where exactly is the effect of stone barrier in this video? You really got me interested now:D

    That might be because finale had the swift tag. If it was smite boss wouldve died in 2 finales and i wanted to show the 2nd combo too. I usually use godspeed wield too so even without the swift tag 3 stacks of gsw gives 30% motionspeed. Its situational tho and the stone skin shows in the buff status bar etc. Tho i didnt get hit so the temporary hp didnt deplete

    Ah now I see... So that means I could probably change shield skill with wizard stone barrier to make it available before 150?
    I guess I need to improve more...:(:cool:

    It depends when the wizard skill tiers are available. Me being 200 they were availabe to me already but stone barriers tier may require 150 or something. We are always improving :p

    I tried wizard stone barrier but it simply act as a reserve HP. So whatever damage you should have received will get the count deducted the same amount(cmiiw) and if you went over the count, the rest of the damage will return to you (cmiiw). So I guess even if I wanted to use stone barrier, I shouldn't skimp on anything which reduces damage. Correct me if I'm wrong, but stone barrier or 2502 extra HP, does it make a difference?

    Honestly I didn't check "how it works" but if you ask me "if it works" for my style of play it sure does.

    There are many other choices for additional but you will need to balance the other equipments to match -100 aggro.
    e.g. exchange additional w/ sunglasses then you will be missing -20% aggro, maybe you can change the armor to medic coat (NPC) to remedy the missing amount.
    edit1: Of course you will lose some MATK due to exchanging player crafted armor but you do gain 300 extra MP from Medic coat(NPC) disregarding the xtal used
    edit2: as someone in this thread have said, xtal can exchange for a lot of the required -aggro
    edit3: I have edited the main post so that xtal for additional is optional (if it was not so obvious before)
    edit4: Also if you are making a new account to level with this build then you might be missing one of the requirement (t4 skill magic) but if you are only getting carried then it should be fine?

    It's mostly that I seem to generate aggro more than others, which is ironic cuz ATM I'm using a water staff while farming volg. But my main concern was later on since if I can substitute it then I'd likely be safer from the impending doom of instant death. Thank you a lot for the advice btw
