Change of Strategy (in General)

It seems as my old strat, the one minion UC with RoBF, does not work as well as one minion Evasion with RoBF. I am wondering two things, is it better with evasion or UC because I am also planning on buying a big weapon now, maybe a VB. On the other hand, my new strat is kinda like an all evasion and AMF character with RoBF, but instead, with some strength and dex for my SoD to weaken big teams a bit and knock out small teams. So i am mainly wondering if this is a better strategy or to go like how johnnywas did before, which is to use a ToA with the evasion. In my opinion, my strat should work better, but i am not sure because johnnywas is much more experienced and higher level, but uses a ToA. Maybe RoBF doesn't work at higher levels? Iono, but suggestions can help. :)

Remember what RoBF lets you do as a single minion: to concentrate all exp into one or two key skills. By trying to be a tank at the same time, you are diluting your advantage. So if you are staying one minion, make a choice. Either play RoBF and concentrate exp or do the evasion + sod combo but play like a real tank (ToA)

evasion will only protect against tanks, am i wrong? So against any mage, you will get hurt severely.

If I were to use a RoBF with a single tank, I would not train any skill.

I would simply train equal parts HP/ST/DX/AMF. Also, I would not use any melee weapon and just go with a super big ExBow, AxBow or SoD. With the automatic RoBF damage, why spend $ on a melee weapon or skill?
