Risq

Dear Scyber and WK:
Hello, my name is Risq and I consider myself a self-imposed Assassin Cross enthusiast. In your biased denunciation of critical Assassin Crosses you've, in the favor of your convenience, skipped over some pretty vital information. The first is that in PvP Dual Dagger Assassin Crosses are horrifyingly limited in terms of versatility. There are very few skills that a Dual Dagger Assassin Cross can do that a critical Assassin Cross can't do just as efficiently regardless of their missing status points due to the increased LUK (assuming that the critical Assassin Cross in question is natural crit). The only one that comes to mind is Soul Destroyer because of the higher HIT since most Dual Dagger Assassin Crosses usually overindulge their DEX when completely it's unnecessary. You make the prejudice assumption that a well off critical Assassin Cross cannot decently match the emp breaking time of a pure Dual Dagger Assassin Cross. My critical Assassin Cross build (95+25 STR/55+27 AGI/59+3 VIT/1+10 INT/21+20 DEX/52+8 LUK) at minimum buffs (Bless/Agility Up/Awakening Potion/Dark Water) breaks a non-buffed Emperium with a +4 Ice Pick in main hand and a +9 2x Orc Skeleton 1x Desert Wolf Gladius in offhand in about 33 seconds (11 seconds with Enchant Deadly Poison) while my versatile Dual Dagger Assassin Cross build (95+25 STR/53+27 AGI/59+3 VIT/4+10 INT/60+20 DEX/2+8 LUK) breaks with the same weapons and buffs in about 30 seconds (9 seconds with Enchant Deadly Poison). Your argument that Dual Dagger Assassin Crosses break at a peerless speed compared to critical Assassin Crosses is void; 2~3 seconds usually isn't going to make difference in a make-or-break situation, not to mention the fact that you're missing the 14% stun resistance and the indeterminable stun-time reduction that the critical Assassin Cross has. It's up to you to decide: 15% stun resistance and possibly dramatic stun-time reduction or, breaking an Emperium 2~3 seconds faster. I think someone even as intellectually inferior as you could tell which is superior. Another advantage critical Assassin Crosses have over Dual Dagger Assassin Crosses is the ability to deal large amounts of damage to mildly defensive characters AND overly defensive characters simultaneously. With the critical build mentioned above my Assassin Cross wearing a +5 Infiltrator does 419/136 to 67 DEF High Priests with maximum (40%) Demihuman reduction and Assumptio (I didn't factor in neutral reduction because I use Lightning Boxes and Cursed Waters for unconventional elemental enchantment) each critical attack along with the opportunity for pseudo-crit locking. My Dual Dagger Assassin Cross with the dual dagger build mentioned above wearing a +4 Ice Pick and a +9 Double Bloody Boned Gladius does 338/95 to the same High Priest. The only time my Dual Dagger Assassin Cross noticeably out-damages my critical Assassin Cross is when the person I'm attacking has UNREASONABLY high defense, and even then it's only higher by a ratio of about 1.15:1 more DPS (damage/second). Your friend WK mentions that Dual Dagger Assassin Crosses spread stats less, but he fails to realize that that's only because the majority Dual Dagger Assassin Crosses on iRO are fixated to the cookie cutter high DEX build, most Dual Dagger Assassin Crosses on other servers spread their stats ALOT more than critical Assassin Crosses. Also, no self-respecting critical Assassin Cross wear agility gear to WOE, way to be a pompous hypocritical asshole. In that single comment you proved to me that you may in all-seriousness be mentally incompetent (retarded). I apologize if some of my English is incoherent since it is my second language (Filipino is my first). None of the times or damage listed above were hypothetical, they were all tested on pRO Iris using my Assassin Crosses, Fraps, VirtualDub, and my guildmates.
P.S. How does one as uninformed as WK get the privilege of managing the RagnaInfo wikipedia?
