Beast WT...need a good debuff...details

[DreamLocke]

Well I can't decide which debuff to start leveling that will be the most effective for my pallette. I can't use cards or a decent bow at this point so I was playing around with this setup...

dual dagger
spear
?(later bow, going to use a cheap one to level up burn or virus)
handgun/wand (reverser/resta)
handgun/wand (shifta/deband)

I was thinking maybe to add handgun/wand(dambarta/zalure) for SE and a debuff. They can both tag okay too for parties when I can't get a piece of everything.

Is Zalure worth it or should I do Jellen or Zoldeel.
Or screw dambarta and go Jellen/Zalure on my last wand?

I plan to debuff because FTs will overwrite my buffs anyway and WT would be suited to debuff when needed.

Zodeel is probably your best bet, honestly - especially as a beast.

I run a beast protranser, and I notice a WORLD of difference in my ability to hit them when I give them Zodeel from my shotgun.

After that, I'd go with Zalure; you're tough enough to take their hits, but killing 'em faster could be pretty worthwhile.


And as far as bows go, level ice, light, and any other element that bosses you fight are weak to. Virus and fire are useless for a WT; you'll never get better than SE2 with bows for now, and SE3 when AoI hits (but you'll have SE4 burn with foie!) and if you want to spread DoTs around you'd be better off with a virus or fire card. The only use for bows is to have an aimed weapon that can do reasonable amounts of damage to flying monsters, or boss weak points. Since most flying monsters are fire or dark... might as well stick to what'll hurt them the most.

I think most useful Debuff is ZALURE - the Defense Down Buff. Its useful in any situation as it lets rangers and hunters do their job more effectively.

Letting your team kill enemies faster and easier is more useful than enemies who hit less powerful, or hit less often, just to throw in my two meseta.

I personally prefer Jellen, since it helps everyone.

Zalure? Me being a FT most of the time, I get no great deal of effect from it. Jellen helps the entire team no matter what since it lowers the enemy's ATP.

Meh, that's me. I'm not a Beast WT, but I do have a Nemwan WT. However, I don't use (de)buffs with her.
