WW Sin or Barb??

[allaanon]

I've been playing a pvp trapper on L2. I'd like to try something new for the normal reasons of people hating me or just stacking on me. So, I thought I'd make a WW character.

I'm looking for opinions on WW Sin or Barbs. What are the advantages of each, the disadvantages of each. Which matchups are terrible, etc.

I tend to pubby most the time as I can never find private duelers.

So, I open up the floor for opinions:

[Jellygoose.elusiVe]

the advantage of sin is
1. cheaper gear
2. dual weild hence more hits
3. can block spells and almost every possible attack
4. has supposedly same block even if running/walking
5. nice res couse of fade
6. and ofcourse, the almighty Dragon flight

advantage of barb
1. huge life
2. huge damage IF you got alot of runes to spend on a weapon
3. huge defense
4. huge ar
5. higher block when walking or standing still
6. (can BO party members) if you play tvt n stuff.

I think i covered the main aspects.

I think assa have an edge vs casters but if enigma is allowed and you got mad tele skills its almost the same.

also barb is alot more expensive if you want a good one, you can build a decent ww assa for like 2runes.

jelly, ur point 4 of sin is wrong,

also adding to that,

fade gives passive DR%, gogo

thats why I said "supposedly" meaning ive heard ppl say it always ahve sam block and some ppl say that its less block if running. If someone would come with a definite answer to this question i would be very happy..

yes, fade gives passive dr but i dunno if thats an advantage over barb couse all barbs should have 50% dr if they didnt do anything wrong or have some special reason for not having it.

well most WW barbs go beast/ebotd, so u lose some DR right there, unless dual ber CoA

[Jellygoose.elusiVe]

I doubt "most" wwers go beast+botd, most cant afford it.

[ReVolution]

Barb far and away if you can afford it and if you're good.

Barb - Most expensive and challenging to outfit... a great accomplishment if u are legit and manage to complete a good one. Took me 3/4 of last ladder to make a good one with all max/ar/vita sc.

WW Sin - Cheap and easy to outfit. Good if u want to get a pvp char up quickly. Not much challenge here.
