Hey guys!

I just got back to Ragnarok and I'm leveling up my assassin on Transcendence and thinking about the build I'm going use after reseting my stats. I wanted to make a critical katar sin with Double attack (sidewinder), but since the rebalance and the bonus on Sonic Blow, I think the skill could be very useful.

My question is: since on a full crit build I wouldn't spend any points with DEX, I wouldn't be able to land some SB, right? Do you have any suggestions and tips about it, or a reference build? If I have to spend some points on Dex for SB, how much would be necessary? Is it worth it?

Thanks!

I think it's still viable as long as you finish the Sonic Acceleration quest, it grants you additional damage as well as +50 hit when using Sonic Blow. Another alternative is carrying a second katar that grants additional hit such as utilizing Mummy cards or getting a Jur with a hit bonus. With the hit bonus from your weapon + sonic acceleration you should be able to hit most targets with no dex invested.

Alternatively venom splasher ignores hit/flee and isn't awful anymore.

 

And if this is an aspd crit build, with double attack critting now, tbh I still question if sonic blow can beat or even match auto attacks.

It really says a lot about how bad sonic blow was.

Sonic Blow was significantly buffed with the rebalance though. I'm hitting 5k~8k with a Jur (depending on enemy's HP) that has no damage options or cards in it and no endow. With a properly built weapon, I imagine you could do very well with it, though the SP cost is still rather high.

 

My assassin has 40 Dex 60 Luck, and I rarely have issues with hit for SB or Grimtooth (without Sonic Acceleration...I really need to get on that). It's probably not enough for level 100+ monsters, so if you plan on using it against them you would need a Hit weapon (or just settle with critting them to death).

you need 330% crit damage for your DA crit to hit as hard as sonic blow (or 760% without DA procs)

SB is good now
