i REALLY doubt it, but is blinding arrow usable w/ scythe? the skill hits as hard as like 2 fireballs just about. also which attribute masteries are good for scythe evies again? i keep hearing different answers, int / agil / str? and anyone finding a good use for mercurial binder yet? it seems like you used it to setup fireballs more than anything...but even then its not worth it that much.

Blind Arrow is staff exclusive iirc. And Int is good for Scythes if you want to do more damage with spells, Str is good if you're gonna spam your melee all day, and Agi is good no matter what since it helps recover Stamina quicker.

Well, go for Int if you want to be all like,"OMIGOD I SNAP AND YOU DIEZZZZZ!", or go for Str if you want to be all like,"I PIMP SMACK YOU AND YOU DIEZZZZZZ!"

staff evies are not going to get far...
I've read here and there that even with insane control it will be difficult to solo in the future (well, you do have golems for that but still). I've been playing staff-vie and as of now, most dungeons are easily solo-able.
I've also had a few friends complain that fb lags them (LOL);;
Staff-evies are called "healing shuttles," they are practically worthless unless the player has good control (even then, if the party members have good control, no need for a support character). Hopping around won't get you so far I guess..
Always remember that support classes are welcomed in certain battles or wtv (raids).
Either staff-evies will be patched (i.e. healing runes will taking up quick slots seems to be an issue) or they will remain a "****ty" character.
IMO, go with scythe or just pick another class. Fiona's a good character to start off with. AP's not limited so you have much more freedom to do what you want. At the moment I'm rushing to r9 Magic Arrow for the +dmg and +2 shot...(not sure if skill is capped, since I don't see that description on the guide here)

Compare a solo Staff Evy end game to a solo Sword Lann end game. DPS-wise, Evy sucks, and is really only worth support
in parties.

I know he was level 30+ before the EXP curve and he was a Fiona
Usually the people who kick are people who are inpatient for people to hit "Ready" or are just plain jerks like oh that person is a low level /kicks

And people that prefer a party full of DPS, and people that know they can handle a run without getting hit, and people who prefer not to waste bandwidth on a character that'll do nothing but make chunk out half a bar of a bosses HP before it dies.
Edit: And how can he personally know the end game usefulness of a Staff Evy while playing a Fiona? We all play Evy and know how much the damage sucks, so you can't really argue with first-hand experience.
