    Energy Charge before Mastery? That's new. Only ever seen that type of thing on Sins and NWs. Maybe there's something new with TBs?

    You could also do more with explanations. Explain why Energy Blast is not needed? Explain that Shockwave is not maxed because of it's inability to be used effectively on uneven terrain?
    The idea is to guide someone through the creation of a certain class, not to recount what you did.

    On top of that, this is only really a complete SP guide. There's no mention of training areas, equipment, capping DEX based on funding, etc.

    Defence is much more potent than accuracy. It actually does something in massive amounts, unlike accuracy.

    I absolutely agree with you about the guide part, But I still say most defense comes from % lowering abilities rather than actual solid defense numbers.

    That's true. The defence difference between me using a 1H and 2H sword is about 4000 from memory. That takes off 800 damage at most (from Crockies, when I run through them. Could be more, but that's the most I've seen). Compare that to the miss rate of an archer, with a several hundred accuracy, and a warrior with 150 accuracy on Zakum. They both have zero, and no matter how much more accuracy the archer gets nothing else is going to change.

    But that takes thousands of defence. Just having Powerguard cuts damage by much more.

    I created a Thunder Breaker a few days ago and I followed a guide pre big bang (I didn't realize it was) and now I'm pretty sure I ****ed up. My dex/str is correct, but I've maxed Quick Motion and Somersault so far, with 5 into Straight and 1 in Lightning. Is there any SP resets you can get in quests and stuff? I guess now since everyone is saying Quick Motion is useless, I should just max Lightning and Dash too...
    any info/ideas to help me?

    I don't play anymore!

    If you're only level 2x, and you're sure you messed up your stats that much. Just restart.

    Well, tell me your stats and skills and I'll help you out. 28 isn't exactily hard, I had to remake a 76 chief bandit because of big bang.

    haha I know, you're probably right but still.
    Well I have all Str and my Dex is the same as my level (26, not 28 I made a typo haha). I maxed Quick Motion, Somersault, I have 5 into Straight and 1 in Lightning. One guide I read said to max Quick Motion, Somersault, put 11 into Straight and max Lightning (because Dash gets useless at third job).
