The specific times I use them are:
Nuke being charged up
KD skill used
Daredevil skill used
Get attacked out of invis (prevents a follow up skill)
Strongbow skill used
Lightning Chain skill used
Soul Spear Emperor/Soul skill used
Spam when HP is low ^_^
I probably missed some stuff, but that is what I came up with off the top of my head. Other than when hp is low or I am attacked out of invis, I use it to prevent important skills from completing.

thanks for the advice from your post i think the 5 arrow combo is more of a cancellation skill than a damage dealer =/

Most of the people on youtube are complete idiots when it comes to using the arrow combo. Here is a video that contains correct usage all the way (IMO)
Code: Select all

now i'm 72 (next level the combo :so excited:) from what i understood the combo is not a damage dealer & i never use it in pve*** + i don't have enough sp atm
the question is must i max the combo move every time ? or i shall i just leave it at level one (since i only use it's effect)?
------------------------------------------- *** any expert bowman knows that the combo is arrow eater you use like 4 times the arrow

Chances might be, that if you don't level it, it might not KB as often. It's the same as with the knockdown skills. I never grind with arrow combos, though. All I do is strong bow, explosion arrow, anti-devil, mind bow and autumn wind. If a mob is left with little HP, i just move on to the next one and use mind bow to finish the other one off. Meh... I always grinded with ice, so I was rarely hurt, however, if you don't grind with ice, chances are you waste pots this way. I like killing mobs in 2-3 arrows, not 7.

At 80 cap, Jv was full sun, except for a ring. Later, he switched to sun garm instead of sun prot.
