if you haven't already maxed all 5 light javelin skills, you should work towards that rather than towards getting a valk
even if you have maxed those, you don't want any point in dodge skills because they cancel your attacks, so you still can't a valk

that is, unless you're doing a sp walkthrough
then max valk, and she'll beat any immunes you have trouble with

Valkyrie is a fine skill on its own, but its prerequisite dodge skills actually make you worse in PvM. That's why people don't skill it.
If you have any points into Dodge/Avoid/Evade, they'll interrupt your attacks and teleports when hit by enemies, locking you quite badly.
Its better to have 0 points in these skills.

Depends on many things.

Are you strong enough to be able to tank a few hits on your own? Are you dealing enough damage to kill monsters quickly? If so, you don't need it.

But if you have only mediocre gear, it can be nice to have that tank to shield you from damage. Use Valkyrie and Decoy, both are nice for their own reasons. Decoy can be recast instantly. Valkyrie has a 5 second delay which is annoying.

Agree. I like Valkyrie. Good for chaos and pit if you don't have infinity and enigma.
