Hi,
So.. I'm a level 90 DRK. This is my main job and I had alot of fun levelling it to around 40 then I set up a party and leeched in aby for about 2 days until I got to 90 (I know some people are really against this, but I figured wth). So basically, I feel very, very weak for a lvl 90 and was wondering if anyone could help me figure what the problem was. I was thinking it was just due to skilling up, but I'll list my stats here so you guys can advise.. Hopefully lol.
Wearing all perle gear, which seems to be good (i'm working on DRK paper atm). Equipped Havoc Sycthe, skill is 178 (low I know, but i'm skilling up as much as possible) and using food etc etc. But I still end up with weak attacks and defence. Basically, my damage per hit on a easy prey mob is around 200- dmg, which I think is pretty embarassing. When I use vorpal sycthe the damage is about the same - probably to around the 450 mark, all though this is rare. Is this just because of combat skill? I was in Wajom woodlands and I fought a lesser cobri and it basically killed me, then I saw a 75 drg take it down in less than a minute. Am I doing something wrong here? Or is it just purely down to weapon/magic skill or something else im missing? I think I know the job quite well (have all spells, use abilities, sub war etc etc). It's just really bad, because I pt with my friend whos a 60 BLU and he seems to be doing more damage than me lol. If anyone could advise it would be much appreciated Sorry for the long post, and try to be gentle.. Only been playing a couple of months.... Cheers.
