Good for PVE. Sucks at PVP

Basically all you're gonna use in PvP is Soul Spear and Ghost Spear.

It really depends. In PVE you may be bored just spamming those 2 skills. But yes glaiver must have soul and ghost series. Chain is optional

Flying dragon is a range skill. The damage is lower than soul and ghost spear but is high enough to kick someone ass. Good in PVE and is rarely used in PVP.

Chain spear dragon did the most dmg but it is not the most powerful. It takes about 5 seconds to fully execute this move whereas you can do 3/5 of the dmg with soul spear soul in 2 seconds. Thus the rate of dmg executed by chain spear dragon is not that impressive compared to soul spear soul.

but do that chain and a soul spear right after it and boom youve dealt hella dmg in about 7secs.

With or without lag that wouldn't bve ebough time to pot and a weak built or lower lvl person would almost definitely be dead. Right? lol...

prolly not someone your lvl+ with a shield or a pure str but maybe lol.

You're forgetting something. A person can interupt the chain during the 5 seconds by stunning/frezzing/KD/KB. So the dmg dealth may not be complete and sometimes could be even lower than soul spear soul.

Yup and damage over 5 moves also allows the person to pot up. I've usually seen flying dragon used as an opening ranged move.
