Which Crow to stone?

[Gwenolyn]

I lvl'd a B/B rare I got long ago to 25.

But now I have a P/S and an S/S. Which would you stone?

That particular post got a little...unpleasant, so here's my brief two cents: I had a P/S vs a S/S in a PVP battle. My pet lost as the added attack was not sufficient to make up for the first strike of the S/S. On round 4 their pet had lower health than mine, but since they struck first on round 5 it didn't matter.

Oh ya, I remember that thread but because of the outcome forgot it was originally about the crow. Thx for the responses though.

That's good to know just farmed DM a couple of nights ago and got the same thing so at least I know what to stone and level out of the crows first.

It really is an impossible argument... because it all depends on what you are fighting against.

The general rule is, if you can be faster than your enemy, you want to be barely faster than them. If you cannot be faster than your enemy, then you want to be as slow as possible.

But that changes fight to fight depending on your enemy. For instance, above.. the PS Raven lost to the SS Raven because the PS wasted some stats on speed. If it had been a PP, HH or PH the outcome would have been different. If you are slower than your enemy, you don´t want any S.

But conversely, while SS sounds great.. if you are fighting something very slow.. then really, that second S is wasted, you would be better off with PS, HS, or even PH, HH or PP as long as you are still faster than your enemy.

So PS or SS Raven? Both.. use the SS vs fast stuff, and the PS vs slow stuff.
