I have this formation setup...

:witc::lak::swm:
:femalehero::can::exo:
:ora::pro::mnk:

lvl60 darkseed + lvl60 hex=lvl60 hellflame on low mdef (viking, BT, ranged units)
i will try to stun monk to force him to use awake rather than holyguard.
also i will mana seal to help stunning.

my monk has 15 shield of protection which baits them to attack my staff main. If staff main is in danger, switch position with exo. By the way, I have lvl 60 speed cast so my staff main can be healed little bit.

Please tell me if I should change my main to axe or not. Ppl keep saying that staff main is the worst pvp unit since Oracle does everything better.

If your oracle is able to keep the party healed nicely, then I recommend that you change your main to another class. An axe main would be ideal with your witch in front of her. A cannon main is also a good idea to complement your cannoneer.

Oracle is for healing so if your staff isn't healing as much, you may want to change it. Though, having double heal is helpful. I suppose they lack in pvp department due to their attack/def/hp. However, they are the only main that can heal an entire row. Could it be that people have not realized the potential?

I'll tell you this, if you change into an axe, you will be able to tank better, freeze, and be one in oh what? 75% of the server? Also, if you change, realize you lose the combo and you have a swordsman with 60 seed...uh not very helpful compared to 60 flame sword.

Hmm true your combo to trigger hell fire will be gone and personally dark seed by itself really don't cut it close compared to flamesword. But if you really think having 2 healer in a team is unnecessary by all means change it. Axe main will be good and if you think your sword wont be as effective as he can be you might be better off changing your sword for another tanker like a Bt or another sword. However training one new merc is really troublesome not to mention if i am not mistaken your sword probably is lvl 90+. Well just my opinon anyway.

I think that the real issue is which skill is better for my formation.

Is freezing axe + flame sword better than hell flame? If I changed to axe class, i will lose hellflame in exchange for freezing axe & flame sword.

Well...hellflame only effects two targets, and only causes damage over time. Freezing axe stuns a whole row, and has damage over time. Flame sword does a high amount of damage to a single target. I suggest switching to an axe if your oracle is having no problems healing.

You've just reiterated yourself jesada =P. with the added analysis of damages of skill. Also princess, are you restating your swordsman or something? He'll end up with 60 seed/40 flame if you've already have 60seed. seed's dot is almost negligible so having freeze and flame would be better.
