Apollo VS Lightning..

[IggyBousse]

Well... the tops on CN game use lightnening, except for the mages, they use Hades. The reason is simple, Class Wars and PvE. In class wars, the tops can kill very easily kill the troops, and then the OP Delphic of lightening sylph is very good against archers and knights. Mages use hades for the same reason, but they can use Amazon (fire, will came in the next patch here) if they don't cash alot for Hades. Amazon have a good damage too, but it's physical.
However, the Lightening sylph don't have AoE attacks. The tops probably have Apolo and Hades for use in Arena and Sylph arena. The casher sylphs will never be completely "useless".

Exactly, Apollo = Aoe, Electric/lightning = Single target, if people understand that, they can choose.

Water, Fire, Wind, Lightning, Light, Dark sylphs.
Iris, Amazon Queen, Pan, Eve, Apollo, Hades.
Iris - lets say 10-20% will use it
Fire - x% ( don't know skills, what it does, so )
Wind - probably 5%, to not be harsh and say 0%
Lightning - 80-90%
LIght - 30-40%
Hades - 10-20%
This is my opinion about the percentage the current sylphs and the " upcoming " ones. Wether they admit it or not, all will go on lightning and not dark, its easy to see the difference.

I did a quick scan a couple weeks ago of the chineese top 100 and what they used,

http://forum.r2games.com/showthread....704#post750704
top 100 battle ratings use the following sylphs

Lightning 38

Dark 52

Light 3

Fire 6

Water 1

Wind 0


Number 1 365k Br uses lightning
Number 2 324k Br uses lightning
Number 3 295k Br uses Dark


Since that post the number 1 player has 430k Br and has the lightning sylph as her primary sylph.

That's right.

Use Lightning for BG, GB and 1v1

and Apollo for GA, GB

I was talking about this thread's original topic, Apollo vs Electric.

But yea, you could use Dark sylph instead of Apollo, since we all know how annoying Bleed effects are.

Don't overrestimate lightning slpyh i have a blue light slyph .She hits hard but in slyph arena her ultimate doesn't do the job i mean You need a very strong lightning slyph to hang with lightning. Considering the ultimates light hits best then fire . I advise you to go with fire slyph if you're a mage or archer. Warriors definitely go for light.

Please answer this. I am just curious.

Light = M. ATK
Water = M. ATK
Wind = P. ATK
Electric = ?
Fire = ?
Dark = ?

Why am i asking this? Because for me , the most important thing to consider in choosing sylph is if they are in PHYSICAL or MAGICAL ATTACK ATTRIBUTE. Honestly if that electric sylph is PHYSICAL attribute, i will definitely not use it in Class Wars. But it surely be a great help in TOK incase me and my party encounter 2-4 Mages in TOK.

[Wraithraiser]

Electric = matk fire and dark patk

[SuperMimi]

Electric = matk fire and dark patk

Thanks for the info. I guess i go for Electric as Main sylph ( for class wars ) and Fire or Dark ( for TOK in case there are 2-4 anoying mages ).

It's the same when people talk about lightning.
But to the OP, Apollo is better in PvP where you're against multiple enemies. I think Lightning (or electric) will be better against 1 on 1 bosses like Spire, WB and general MPD bosses.

But they should not call eve lightning as it creates confusion, Apollo is the light type and Eve is electric type, when u say lightning some people will obviously assume it to be apollo while if the term "electric" is used it will not create any confusion, also it will be the correct term as eve is electric not lightning and electricity and lightning are not related

Soon we'll have battle guardians and dragon souls so it'll move from pokemon to some mythical ancient era game =P Would be nicer if they use Thor as the lightning sylph's god cast image =P Evolve to become Thor with Mjollnir and hammer the ♥ out of enemies in cw. Pity that won't happen...but nice to see they name my apollo god cast after me XD

[anichaos]

And no one comments on Apollo Gender changes into a Female after evolve....

*snip snip* apollo, to become stronger, you must lose something important.



BTW, electricity and lightning are related... what do you call the thing when you're hit by a lightning? ZAAAAP
