Lose less DPS because all the blademasters won't have to chase the monster around as often. Lose less DPS because you can keep shooting for longer periods of time (very noticable with siege mode for HBG) Negate the increased aggro you get for using a ranged weapon (also applies to hunting horn) If you're wondering if Sneak (and/or silencer) is worth taking over damage skills, This is what you get by using it: Is Sense actually useful and does it stack with the Silencer? If your LBG can rapidfire a status shot, it'll help a lot more than normal. The effect is only noticable when applying a status multiple times. Status isn't as useful unless you're going specifically for status application. Similar question for element at all vs status skill.

If you can get both, the effects do stack.

Most LBGs only focus on one element, so slotting for that specific one yields a better result. Is it better to slot for specific elements or just go straight for Element Up?Įlement Up is roughly the same as Atk+1 for all elements.
