What is Better DOUBLE SHOT or ARROW BLOW??

the title is what my message is

There's already a sticky topic about this.

ok well if you want to be a hunter DS is better but for crossbowman AB is better and that is only because of the higher critical attack rate and the small KB it gives. still i think DS is good for both jobs, i sure wish i maxed out DS instead of AB even though AB has that knockback. there IS a real long sticky about this whole thing... if you look

[santaniqqur]

their both same damage but DS is more stable and critical throw gives u 2 chances for critical so DS is better in my view

[LittoLoner]

This is a waste of space since there is a sticky like everyone above has mentioned.

But anyways...

Ab gives high KB and takes the def 1 time meaning higher dmg and more KB and 1 chance for crit, also less stable dmg

DS gives low KB and takes the def 2 times meaning weaker dmg and less KB even with the 2 chances for crit it can always not work, u can have 2fails, 1fail or 2success. its all chance and DS has more stable dmg

But overall i think DS would be best. Especially for a Hunter.
It seems like xBows tend to go to AB
while Hunters sway to DS .. =|

I think its mostly YOUR CHOICE !
HIGH DMG, UNSTABLE, KB, 1 CHANCE FOR CRIT
LOWER DMG, STABLE, LOW KB, 2 CHANCES FOR CRIT

Two criticals required to hit maximum damage makes it even harder to do so. On average, you'll be getting one fail, one success.

Arrow blow is for crossbow people and double shot is for archers. I don't see why people have this question either. I meant ab is one arrow and ds is 2 so ds would do more damage am I right?

[BlueNightz]

Not necessarily. DS=130*2, AB=260.

DoubleShot is for Bow
Arrow Blow is for CrossBow

There should be a sticky about it somewhere here...
Well, Doubleshot is a lot mroe stable and u have 2x chance to do critical shot making it very useful
ArrowBlow is unstable but has a good KB >_> but I think DS is more useful due to more dmg, morestable, more chance of critical shot while AB isnt, and only good for high def. monsters and u dont even have a 100% chance u will hit a lot >_> but thats the same case for DS on high def. monsters only. Go with DS if ure a hunter and AB if ure a crosbow, it really matches them anyways

cause crossbow later has iron blow and like hunter has 4 arrow shot thing which is like matching @_@ lol..
