currently i have....
3 walls with TSA + MGS
1 AMF enchanter + TOE

i could probably go ROBF?
3 walls with TSA + MGS + PL
1 HP wall with ROBF + MGS

i could go EF?
3 walls with TSA + MGS + PL
1 AMF enchanter + EF + junction

or i could mix the 2
2 walls with TSA + MGS + PL
1 mage with SG
1 hp minion with ROBF + MGS

any input would be greatly appreciated

Your current setup is definitely vulnerable to tanks, which can pick off the minions easily since you have no trained evasion.

If you're going to stick with 3 walls, I'd say go HP/PL walls, and have your front minion be RoBF + 100% evasion, and you will just rely on slowly killing the other team with RoBF damage. With 25% of your xp in evasion, plus RoBF, you should be cutting tanks down to single attacks, or possibly no attacks, and the 3 walls with MGS+PL will nullify pretty much all incoming magic damage.

One note to the previous response...I'm pretty sure SG/EF opponents would destroy you if you follow what I said however, since they'll kill the RoBF in one round. Likewise, they'd probably kill off your walls pretty quickly, due to the HP split between minions like that.

If you go all evasion on the RoBF minion though I'd probably turn one of the walls into a pure Amf enchanter, then also the RoBF minion can wear a Mage shield. Without Amf I'm pretty sure you'll eventually get fried, but with amf the mage is more likely to kill itself before it kills you, since you'd have so much more magic reduction than they'll have Amf reduction..

1:With one AMF enchanter you'll probably only be able to beat people with less MPR than you, because of the nature of NS. I doubt you'll be able to beat the basic SFBM off recoil damage, so be prepared to be farmed by every NCB out there.

2:But if you went RoBF you might have the damage to kill quicker, but you'll lose the survivability against the very targets you are specializing.

3: EF would make it possible to farm SFBM i think. Especially if you were to have a little AS in the mix. It'll be much stronger overall I think.

4: Probably the most potential with effective hiring. Though I would recommend ToE against RoBF.

With NS in play, I found that 1/4th of your xp in AMF is pretty significant most of the time. Then again I was using a ToE to help with my damage reduction.
