To get Lightning Chain it says I need Ascension chain lvl 9. Iv'e been using Billow chain and like it. The question being a s/s I only need 1 of them. Should I dlvl Billow chain in order to get Ascension chain? How much less damage does the 4 attack do then the 5? I wish I could add lightning chain after the final 4 or 5 combo.

As a blader I can tell you that 4 hit combo does More damage per hit.
since you're a s\s more hits means more imbue hits so it's better for you to use the biggest chain possible. I'd go with 4 hit because the last chain (7) is wicked awesome

Overall (at least at my lvl) maxed heaven chain does equal or more damage then horse's thunderbolt, the down side is that it is spread out, but when used inbetween nukes it generates a high amount of dps, and the if the last hit on the chain crits its lethal.
EDIT: You will need both the billow/blood chain series maxed at 100 cap as lightning chain gives impotent, division and bleed and the lvl100 chain gives stun fear and dull it looks a bit like this.
Illusion chain -> Blood chain -> Ascenion chain -> Lightning chain
Illusion chain -> Billow chain -> Heaven chain -> new lvl100 chain
Hope that helped. :)

add both. First of all they look sexy, on the other hand they are quite usefull... The heaven chain is needed for the new one at the 100s cap

What's Counter?

BTW, does anyone know if Konpaku is still up or if a similar site with skills beyond our cap is around? Link would be cool.

Counter is a skill for spear that becomes useable at lvl20, I dont know the details but I assume its like mana shield or glacier force, I reckon it will be another 2min buff with a 1min cool down that will possibly reflect dmg back to an oppenent, like a warriors dmg return skill or a warlocks reflect.
Bow also gets a skill at lvl20 called "sky" or so, I cant even begin to guess what that would do however.

http://sro.mmosite.com/ isnt bad and also http://sro.greatnova.com/ is pretty good to, they are not as detailed as Konpaku however, but it gives us somthing to refer to till he renews his hosting. :)
