If im looking what's useless for my build, it would be autumn wind and that skill that shoots ice out of your fingers :P

And the first book of the ice nukes (I use the second one)

Without a doubt it is the chinese self heal series. Why bother using it when the heal other series heals more hp?

I guess it would be better if the question was more specific. As in worst buff, worst attack, worst force skill (lolz)

The dmg it does isn't worth even casting the spell.

For Chinese I find the second and last books of the fanning and castle series to be useless.
Quit grinding, just PvPing and job.

because you dont have to target yourself so it would be more useful in pvp i suppose

It takes me about 0.3 seconds to target myself, just click on your hp/mp.

Now i dont know exact figures, but the heal other one heals more hp. Now i would rather take 1 second to click myself + the extra casting time of the move as opposed to using the self heal one and healing less hp.

Anyway have you actually ever watched a chinese character heal themselves in pvp? Not enough people sub force and the ones that do probably wouldn't take self heal, let alone use it on themselves.

Scorn is probably the most useful skill a rogue has...for protecting others. Poison Trap is probably much more useless.

im not saying they SHOULD use it just that i think self heal would be better if they wanted to do this for some reason in emergencies it would be more useful to get the healing faster

ok after reading most of your posts i have come to one conclusion: most of you are morons. Each of those skills have a use. Does a nuker need flame body series no. Does a str char need force pierce no. Build and weapon play a huge role in which skills to use. So the correct answer is using a skill not made for your build or there is no useless skill.

somebody wrote:What is the most useless skill for PURE INT?


Now most of us, including myself were referring to a pure intl character. Why bother bringing in different builds when the topic starter stated a certain build?
