So after a little more testing and a status reset I can pretty much assume that throwing is obsolete IF you are using magic just because staffs give a greater variety of effects and higher MATK.
But it seems like throwing is only viable when it comes to auto attacking
Basic hybrid auto throw and magic build (This was shown with some mp based gear)
-The Basic Hybrid is meant to be able to cross between grinding and soloing with a throw and staff. Staff when grinding/party and auto throw for soloing.
-AGI stops at max attack speed (Unless you want more evasion) and VIT will stop at 160-170 for struggler gains (Unless you want more HP/DEF)
-Through my experience using an auto throw build is faster and safer than using a staff and casting(Unless you just spam thunderbolt but then your speed will be even trashier for more safety). . This balance is ideal for higher level bosses especially during MQ episode 3-5 where the boss HP is crazy high, which you'll most likely run out of time trying to use a normal cast build.
-Only weakness that this has that a pure staff build would not is the frequent auto attacks right after spells due to high attack speed. But thanks to AGI you have a chance to dodge more
My Gear for auto throw
I highly recommend using some sort of additional attacks such as dajarte
Artemis 3 (Dajarte)
Strugger (Dajarte)
Doggy ears 3 (Dajarte)
Dragonewt Bangle (Dajarte)
The set was incomplete and I never finished it but heres the logic behind it:
Artemis has range+3 so abuse the distance and make tings safer for yourself
Struggler is for the MATK which helps Dajarte a lot
Doggy Ears is for autoskill %, Evasion and matk %( I couldve used sage hat but id need the reup to beat this by 1% auto so...nah)
Dajarte xtal obviously for additional damage. The -Magic resist didnt matter since I took 0 damage anyway and these dealt about 10k each at 15ish% probability. Autoskill gear recommended.
Feats:
Able to beat Inibila in about 8 minutes as opposed to running out of time or dying with staff
Went back to a few of the other bosses I battled with a normal staff and did better dps and time wise against them
Vs Inibela:
(I'll update this soon. Time pressed atm so just sharing my experiences)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now there is a seemingly more scattered build that prettymuch destroyed the first one in speed, dps and survival.... However is is gear dependent(in a good way sorta) and way more calculated.And the stats are:
Personalized auto throw build
-STR to further add Throwing base damage
-INT for obvious reasons
-VIT for Struggler
-AGI is to Max attack speed
-DEX is for throw damage but mostly delay and thunderbolt cast time
-CRT seems low but it is actually equal to 256 critical damage and rate wise
It will take some time to explain this one but
Feats:
Beat Inibila in 4 minutes and 30 secs, Dragon Minela in 4 minutes and 5 secs,
Sofya in 35secs, Azimov in 32 secs
VS Minela:
VS Sofys/Azimov:
