I read somewhere that breakdown and scud are not the same anymore.

lvl60 scud can now deals over 1000 damage. Does this means that staff main is better now for pvp since pvp mostly need AOE skill?

Which main AOE skill is the best? I am thinking of changing my class to swordmain to use lvl 60 breakdown...is this good choice? My formation is AOE pressure build...

Among all the Heroes' only skills, Chaos Wind is the most reliable. It not only blocks the view of the opponent, it also deal a significant amount of damage over time. :3

I am not too sure about eva scud but all i know is that my breakdown currently deals ard 400-500 dmg. Its at skill lvl 30+ currently. Well the dmg probably isnt much but if combo with skills like deep insight, meteor strike, beast summon and other aoe skill it probably be very deadly.

I know a couple of staff mains, and their scud is devastating. It does a little less damange than meteor. Breakdown is weak and should only be used as a finishing blow to kill off several mercenaries at once.

Scud works wonder in a pressure/aoe build. Only reason I didn't beat myself for choosing staff hero... :p

agreed with jesada, breakdown comes in handy, but isnt too strong!

Hah, breakdown was what cut it for OlaBy in the tourny. Last second win since opponent axe main moves to an unreachable by melee merc position and OlaBy uses BD, following turn, the damage by time crushed the opponent, making OlaBy the winner. So BD=Last minute wins pulled out of the air. Other than that....yea not that great. hah

i had breakdown in CB - didnt like it that much
BUT
i've seen the breakdown + chaos wind combo does pretty decent dmg.
Did anybody ever manage to do the 3-skill-combo? (chaos + breakdown + eva)
I guess it will do pretty good damage - so if you plan on doing many fights in party later on it maybe worth to bump it up a lil.
