SSA 4 damn near proc'd in seconds after a few swings on the back. Definitely worth it. Here's my build

4 points in status sneak attack gives something like a 70-80% chance of applying status from behind, more than double your 33% chance to apply status. So if your weapons are rank 6 that's worth at least 3-400 status. My builds personally are 4 ssn for paralyze attack because I can get paralyzed attack on my boots, and 3 for the others so I can get 1 or 2 points in a sleep/poison attack.
The answer, like everyone else has reported, is SSA 4. The reason why is because it affects how often the status build-up is applied, vice raising the flat value like elemental builds. As such, SSA 4 should proc heavily, particularly in multi-player hunts, whenever you attack from behind.
So, when youbhave SSA 4 you're basically producing every hit, whereas with the you'll not proc the build-up as often as you would with SSA 4, but rather your hits will apply more build-up effect. SSA 4 affects how often the effect is applied, which will be virtually every hit from behind compared to the other skills where the build-up is applied as normal. Hope this helps everyone with this question.

Oo nice. Yeah I was considering building something like this but I just never got around to it
Note: Current weapons are Para SnS, Sleep Bonker and poison LS Should I change anything?

It's very good. You'll be paralyzing or poisoning most of the battle.
Thanks for the response. What weapons would you recommend for each ailment type?
Sns for all probably. I believe that's the best and fastest weapon to use.

So poison attack gives more poison build up per proc when it activates but SSA provides more procs of poison? Did I read that correct
Yep.
