Is Lion's Shout really that helpful? In training, on a average level of 25 and a average weapon( No sos)+Full Garments(No blues) How much damage will you think it will do? I still do not know whether to put points into or not. And about the damage with average wep(No sos)+Full garment(with many int+str blues).
Thanks

well, if you're going to be a nuker, it's an excellent finishing hit. so yes, I would suggest getting it. at lvl 25, perhaps it does 200 in damage? 300 maybe?

Around level 23 it did about 270-320 damage with no imbue on a spear.
If you're planning to be a nuker, your main goal is kill anything in (almost) one nuke. If the monster has a bit of hp left, Lion's Shout is a lot of help since you dont need to run over to it and whack it. Plus, it's real fast.

A lot of traders I've seen have used it to one-shot agressive mobs on the way to Don <-> Jang (saves MP and time).

no doubt. its very helpful. im a glaive user but i still use lion shout when grinding. its good for getting mobs to attack you so that you wont waste time running around. especially when the range skills for heuksal (flying spear) is still charging. good alternative for range attack. very useful in PVE. i use this a lot. :D

It is a great finishing move due to the fact that unless you have a very nice weapon... otherwise most often you will just be a little short of one-shotting mobs at your level, but not always...

Lion shout can do about 1/3 damage on mobs at your level.

Lions Shout is an excellent INT based skill. Seriously, I recommend it for ANY nuker or INT based char. :)[/b]

pure int--get it
hybrid int--might as well get a ranged wep skill.

lion shout is a good move.

its not a primary one though, more like a finisher- just keep that in mind.
