Dual Wepons and Macros

FuryAngle · Post by **FuryAngle** » Sat Feb 24, 2007 9:01 pm

As we all know, once you hit 7x you get bored of using the same wepon over and over and over ......etc
Well it seems most people are now choosing dual wepons( a glavier that has all heusukal and all bicheon for the sacrifice of a force) I was thinking of doing this to my level 80 on greece but havent decited. I made my 72 archer into a glavier/archer but i dont like it that much. I was wondering since i saw a few videos made by the kSRO players (g15 i think) and they used macros, would macros be considered a cheat or a edit program?

And how much would it cost(silk or resurcation quests to dlvl a skill from level 70 down to 0) and is it worth it to lose a force for a wepon?

I saw a few untalaented players on greece using dual and they take long to switch between wepons, but i have seen some players on Babel claim they dont use Macros but they obviously are....Any way, whats your opinion?

My little vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dByRt1y8jTk

I'm switching not as often but certainly no macro's. Just practise. Get a m8 to go afk in cape and use lvl 1 weapons on him etc etc.
Macro's can certainly be used but let's say you have a kd+ stab + stab chain and you don't kd .. Yeah that kinda screws the macro up.

The video URL contains "malformed data" Anyway. I guess your right, but wouldnt the macro skip over the KD and continue with the next skill?

Fixed ahh sorry. Yeah it would BUT say you have 3rd book and 2nd book. It owuld do them first so you'd have a slight delay in attacking.

Ihave about 120k sp on my level 80, but my masteries are at 299. I was wonder which force should I lose? And aswell, KD would be use as a finishing attack or when HP is getting low.... And I still havent leveld my Bicheon, im just waiting on opinions, but from what I see so far, a player on greece lvl 80 full farmed with bicheon/heusukal is kinda weak since her attacks are delayed from switching wepons, perhaps she doesnt have them on shortcut keys, but either way it seems pretty slow and bad...

No pure ints in general without sosun / som against a str type in garms is freakin hard. Theres a VERY slim chance you will win.

Very VERY un-balanced in 1 vs 1 pvp. All tho I can't complain much cause int's are NOT made for 1 vs 1.

Well the opponent was nothing more than a KD spammer, he never used anything besides his KD, you didnt get much of a chance to attack him, either way, do you hav eyour wepon in your quick slots?

Uhmm yeah I have it like this.

F2 - 1.Imbue 2.Kd 3.Kd 4.Stab 5.Stab 9.Sword 10.Shield
F3 - 1.imbue 2.Mars 10.Spear

Need 2 hands tho, so phantoming away is no chance.

Going from S/S to spear was easier for me then turning back.
Somehow I always ended up with only a sword or a shield. But with good timing and practice it'll make fights more fun.

+2, I don't have a g15 keyboard but I don't have any problems with switching. Just like twista said it takes practice, and a good hot-key setup.

You don't to play in korea to avoid lag, You just need a good ISP.
