SWS vs Warcryer (which one lv faster?)

General Discussion Started Last reply 18 posts
now, it's tiem for my third sub. I decided to choose supporter which means only warcryer or Sws is avaiable (since I'm a spellsinger on main). I wonder which class will be lv faster and easier? someone help pls.

P/S solo only. I have no box at all.
Solo WC would be faster
But it's an MMO, make friends, play in parties, it's faster and more fun
Thank u,

I knew about friend, party ..etc. I'm playing like that but on main class. For sub, I will choose solo for more xp. Kama and zaken would be chosen for fun while lv up a sub
personally? a wc with a wolf ull beable to take on higher lvl mobs ergo more xp
WC with wolf too but only for solo play. Besides leveling faster you will have wolf level also.
But why only wc and sws ? Bishop is available for sps, for instance, ee also...

Bishop and EE don't give celestial sub skill.
I play a SWS as a main, and from experience.. the SWS will level slower solo than the WC.
but as someone else here said; find a party. Both the SWS and WC will get parties as they are both good support characters..
Get a decent wolf and buff it with the WC.
i've lvled both a wc and a sws.

i can say with good gear...... and all certainty.... that a sws will generally out lvl a wc solo WITHOUT wolf....

right around the lvl 64-66 mark is when the WC starts really picking up speed.. because at that point the only thing you need to go back to town for is BSPS/SS....

however i find the SWS even as a lowbie will get more parties more often for AOEing.. where as the WC won't... unless it's a lowbie aoe group.. but those are relatively rare now that everyone is essentially getting pwlvld.. and a toon such as bd or sws that is low lvl sitting in party makes the lvlers more then happy. maximising their xp.

Yeah, I agree with you completely. For solo leveling, WC+wolf, for party, sws.

I did choos WC for 3rd sub. However, there is a mistake I could tell. when I saw weapon mastery passive skill, the description is "10% Hp will be recoverd..". But it seems 10% Mp is recovered. anyone could explain that?
they level the same!

Yep, it seems there's been a mistype. You actually get your MP recovered and this gives virtually unlimited MP to WC and OL.

Right now I'm lvling both a WC and a OL on different accounts for personal crazy purposes. I can tell you for sure that it's your MP bar that gets refilled, when you hit, and that I can spam stun skill all the time because in the recycling time, my normal hits replenish my MPs all the way up.

Now now....yep, WC+wolf is a perfect mix as you have most of the SE and PP buffs as VR and haste, giving your pet a full set of buffs. I remind you that your wolf will still be just a support DD as he cant solo anyway, unless he's some lvls higher than mobs and he's wearing top armor/weapon.

SwS is a perfect leecher as his songs are single lvl while WC requires lvling skills to achieve better effects.

To be noted: with the last upgrade I've noticed a huge nerf in exping in overleveled areas as beating yellow and red mobs now give you a noticeable % less of exp and drops. If you're leeching with your SwS, you dont care much about this, but as WC you'll have to fight and burn your own spirit ore. If the exp and drops are not worth, trying yellow and pink mobs could be just a loss of time and money.
Oh, and damage dealing is nerfed too!! Fighting pink/red mobs, you'll notice you deal very low damage while mobs beat the ..... out of you! This effect, a bit less noticeable but still active, can be noticed with yellow mobs too.

Btw: what's the point in a support class if you're planning solo only up to the higher lvls? SwS and WC can both solo well enough, but they're pointless if you dont plan to party up.....anyway SwS is better as up to (I think) lvl 78 you wont have to burn nothing but some SS.

Last note: Great Wolves and Fenrirs eat like 30-35% of your exp while giving you a faster killing rate.
WC with Wolf way to go....after 70 u can sell wolf since u wont need it cause u r Mystic Muse )) i hope u have kooka :p

Thx for very detail explaination about lv up these 2 classes. For the question about support class, I only need it for sub skill. lv 75 sub class is good enough. So, I don't care about high lv way unless I have to lv 3 sub to 80 for unlocking new sub in Hi5.

For wolf, I do lv up them for sale anyway. So, WC is the right choice. My path is "branded cata" for 40-49lv, "outlaw forest" for 49-55 lv, "forsaken plain" for 56-62, and "garden of wild beast" for 62-75. is it good or not?
