Magic Missile Question/Strat Advice (in General)

Does MM do more damage to a single minion compared with FB?

Because I wanted to retrain so that I could farm SFBMs and from the past I remembered as an SFBM I farmed other SFBMs that had DM/other stuff trained. This meant that I had more concentrated exp into surviving and dealing damage so it worked. But this time round I thought that I could slap on an RoBF and some big AGs and the likes to be able to farm SFBM mostly.

Would this work?

I think FB still do more damage than FB, try training a few base spell and compare by attacking those 20MPR teams.

Sox: FB will not be better than FB but only be equal to FB :D Sorry I know it's a typo, but I have to type it hehehe

Against single minion, FB is still the best DD IMO, it has that evil damage multiplier the smaller the enemy team is. So does CoC, but since it fire 4 rounds lesser, it takes a little longer for CoC to be more effective.

*FB outdamage MM.

So you think a SFBM training just FB and HP would do the trick for me to start farming these SFBMs at aroundabouts 100k+ MPR?

Would a RoBF help? Or should I get a different tat?

So my build would be:

HP:1/3
DD:2/3

equipping AGs, RoBF, HoC primarily.

push a little harder with FB, like 1/4 or 1/5 HP and rest into DD. Try finding those with evasion or DM, so easy to farm. I think a RoS backed base GA works well (in which case 1/3 HP is fine), but the tat is totally your choice.

FB currently has issues with the damage nerf, it really can't deal enough damage in ranged to take out many of the dead teams required for growth. I tried a single minion MM way back when, noticed that the damage was much smaller, but it's easier to kill the damage dealer so that might be a better idea.

but he's trying to farm SFBM.

If you want to farm SFBM, get a Hal. AS would help, but probably isn't even necessary.

Just junction a hal? Okies xD
