Restrain works with every skill, most importantly cyclone
Or just bring an inquisitor.
Hue.
Drag them away then reposition them into a close bunch using Bash so you can hit them all at once
Iāve been grinding on that map Tymeris Temple. And iām telling you, you donāt need swordman 3. Like once it was Cryo/Chrono who was required for supporting. Now at 280-330 is Sage ( http://www.tosbase.com/database/skills/21408/ ). You take no magic damage from monsters if you get a Sage to buff your team.
Unlike 280 grinding, you donāt need specific compositions for grinding (Except Sage). Inquisitors deal huge damage with Breaking Wheels at the scale of a Cyclone. Wheels are slash type, so a Barb/Doppelsoeldner + Inquisitor can be great partners if we apply Cleave/Zwerchhau debuffs on cloth mobs.
Hereās the thing, questing alone is almost impossible, you need a support, either sage or cleric or you just wonāt make it through. Some mobs are immune to CC, so restrain is not an option. Wasting 2 ranks for 1 skill is not worth it, up to you.
Edit: Of course, if you want to PvP, go for it. But tbh, the new meta is 1 shotting people.
Donāt Grind you can go up to 226 for quest and maps
