Is a demon seeker good?
I was thinking of making my seeker aps type too by crafting the
LA Dragon armor. I need opinions though.

never really tried a demon seeker,got only sage one but i wouldn't really recommend it,sage skills look so much better to me that it is totally not worth when compared just to demon spark.
if you wanna try an aps seeker there is nothing wrong with going holy,if you just put extreme fury stone in your dual swords it will gain same aps as if you used demon spark and you can still benefit from sage skills and spark

If you plan to PK, go Demon, you will have faster damage.
Not much, but may still make a difference between victory
and defeat in a number of fights.

My Seeker is Sage, and my reason is two more meters of Vortex reach.
(I'm PvE oriented.)

Later, if you change your mind, you have two options.

1. Use Shism mold to switch. You lose all Demon skills,
will have to obtain all Sage skill books from beginning.

2. Make another Seeker on another account, have both
and compare. Seeker is pretty fast to lvl up.

But reconsider price. You might decide to lose.

My opinoin? Go sage. I was always disappointed when I saw a demon seeker running around, to be perfectly honest.

You can still go "aps type" with sage, using extreme fury stones, or wind shield/relentless courage (my seeker was actually 5.00 under relentless courage), and you get the benefit of sage's infinitely better skills:

- An anti-stun (sage unfetter)
- A 50% status evasion (sage blade affinity)
- More damage overall (sage blade and sword mastery)
- More defense (sage adrenal numbness)
- A 3 second seal with a shorter cooldown (sage Quid Pro Quo)
- Higher chance to freeze (sage Heartseeker)

And I could go on. But especially considering the first three, I'm not sure why someone would pass that up just for demon spark.

As everyone else said, I'd go Sage. Many, many things make up for demon spark + sage skills are great.

The way i see it

Sage: More of a mage, They use their skills more frequently and rely on them. They have better defense then Demon. Correction though.. Demon has higher damage then Sage overall. Sage = Survival

Demon: Aps, The wanabe Sins. ^^ Higher Damage/aps less defense (like all demon classes) but stronger and more powerful. Demon = Damage Output/Nuking

Demon Heartseeker = 33 meter cast range with 75% chance to freeze. (only Archer tht can reach tht range)
Demon Gemini Slash with Spirit Bore status = -12 both atk lvl n def lvl of target with 33% chance to slow.
Demon Stalagstrike with Blodlet status = 4 sec stun, and has a chance to make target bleeding.
Demon Unfetter = Purify.
Demon Spark = more aps without hf-ing ur self.

My seeker in PWI is Sage actually, but in EPW we can't kill ppl with seeker's nuke skills combo, so i prefer to be demon seeker here  :P

I just wanna say both Demon n Sage are good, n have their advantage and disadvantage.
30k+ HP on arcane class? I mean wtf... how do we kill them with our Nuke skills...?

3.33 aps seeker? why not? u have more than 30 def lvl. Wht r u afraid of? Wearing LA Bracer and LA Boots? 30 def lvl...  cmon, try it and u will find the answer  :P

Sorry to disagree skylight, but having watched some seekers, sage is outright better, they deal more damage, are more tanky, can reach the same aps, longer seal, use extreme fury which means they can quid quo pro it to the target.

In PvE the debuffs are better too.

The buff placers also have a higher chance to activate, which can be useful too.
