Hello, this will prolly be dumb, but here gose. How efficient are the cubics? Are they worth the crystals or should I just save the crystals for my summons?
i generally say 5 people hitting to make a mass cubic worth it, unless your'e doing pvp. How much you need them is very dependant on how fast you want to level and where you want to do so. My solo since 69 has been on low HP mobs which i kill quickly. Cubics are a waste because the mobs die in under 4 hits to a pet.
When i am questing or getting AA on the other hand i use both cubics because usually on a white 4X each will go off at least once. Landrates aren't that great till later levels but both cubics can and will be life savers sometimes.
Of course I only use cubics on monsters that take a while, at least 15 seconds each to kill. Anything faster than that and it's a waste.
And on these especially the spark cubic does help a lot. Although there are times it never seems to fire, it still stuns often enough to save both hp and mp.
