Worst and Best Build and some random Information

Post by Cerus »

Best Tanker = Pure Str Blade
Worst Tanker = Pure Int Bow
Highest Damage Output = Pure Int Spear
Lowest Damage Output = Pure Str Blade
Highest Damage With Critical = Pure Str Glavie
(Tested, with normal attack with Zerk. No Weapon skill involved)
Lowest Damage With Critical = Pure Str Blade
Fastest Lvling = Pure Int Spear
Slowest Lvling = Pure Str Blade

NOTE: Hybrids best Crit will NEVER be higher than a Pure STR's top Crit. Do remember that a Crit DOES NOT double magical damage.

Best PvE = Pure Int Builds
Best PvP = Pure Str Builds
(This is just overall saying. In PvP, anything is possible. Its all about skills already when 2 similar builds with similar gears do PvP.)

Best SP farmers = Pure Int Spear
(Unless you want to Farm at the Den at lvl 16)
For every1 that has tried a Pure Int Spear at lvl 52, you KNOW that you can kill orange mobs in 2 -3 secs or Grey ones in 1 skill.
Then y do ppl still pick to Farm at lvl 16 while at higher lvl you gain more sp per kill? (You get abt 1.5 sp points every 2 kill in den, and you get about 1.1 sp at lvl 52 killing a red mob)
The spawn rate at the Den is far more superior. In the long run, Den is still faster.

(There are too many possibilities in building a Hybrid. Properly built hybrids can rock and vice versa. Thus, I won't go into discussing Hybrids as it can end up to another never ending discussion.)

There is no one best build. Different build has its own pros and cons. But theres one build thats bad in almost every aspect..
The answer is Pure Int Bow

Light Force tree is a must for all builds. reason being that it provides the best stuff (almost) as compared with the rest
1) Increase Mag damage
2) Movespeed increase
3) Phantom Walk (Escape/Chasing tool)
4) Lion shout (Instant spell, no channelling)

A weapon with the following is worth more than one with a (+)
1) good PHY/MAG Attack
2) good Crit (Irrelevant for pure Int)
3) good PHY/MAG Reinforce
4) has luck
5) good Attack Rating
(+)ing your weapon is easy, elixirs are cheaper as compared to stones, most ppl spent more at trying to FULL BLUE their weapon.
So, it is a good idea to (+) only weapons with good stat or SoX.
and.... apparantly Astral lower success rate (go WITHOUT it and you are more likely to get to +6)

Just my personal Opinion. Correct me if im wrong.

P.S: Want to hunt TG at high lvl without getting flamed? Put on your 2nd deg stuffs and go ahead! no one would notice!!! :D

I think bow has higher critical than glaive, might be biased since i got a 80 bow char but seeing as how the top 3 dmg critters for STR in that other thread are bows, imma go ahead and say bow

i saw a STR bower with an SOS 64+5 and it took about 2 glaviers to kill (don't know what kinda gear he was wearing). his crit would hit for about 8-9k at those glaviers. he was smart though, using phantom to run away to get some distance then BAM 2 crits and thier dead. pretty cool to watch......thinking about dual weap when new skills come out Glavie/Bow :twisted:

I am not sure if Bow crit harder or a glaive now... Edited the main post.

But simply hitting with a normal attack, glaive does do more damage than bow. Critical will double it. Thats y i think Glaive does higher damage.

I am a Bowman too :D But i still think that pure str Glavie crit harder than us :(

pure int bow at higher levels is worthless. bow is an str weapon and while int bows are amazing spfarmers earlier on...they are very weak at higher levels. Pure int spear is the fastest leveling build...period.

I have a Blader and recently started making sword nuker and loving them right now. Cant wait for 90 cap for ice buff and ironwall shield pwns to take minimum damage plus being str for so long, kinda fun having nukes to play a long with.

Highest Damage With Critical = Pure Str Bow/Glavie (not 100% sure)


A Hybrid bow crit more harder then a full str bow,dont know if can beat glavie crits,but i have 100% sure that a hybrid bow beat Full str bow crits.

Prove?

Hybrid bow lvl 79 whit bow lvl 72+5

pure str bow crits higher than pure str glaive because of higher damage skills.

Those 2 screenshots aren't enough proof that a hybrid bow crits harder than a pure str bow. For all we know, the pure str could be hitting on the low end of his range and the hybrid could be hitting on the high end of his range.

Great information! It should help people quite a bit

why isn't proof enough?I dont think the guy would post a ss on "dma leaders topic" whit his lower dmg whit sosun +7,it would be embarissing.

Ok here another SS of a hybrid bow 1:1 skills **Im 73 but pacheon is at 70, Ice at 65 (yep, still lvl 1 of last imbue for a 73 lvl player), fire 61 and light 54**

http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/8339 ... 899oz0.jpg

Even if the sosun guy get his best cri on higher end of his range,i still think that he couldnt beat the hybrid lvl 79.D2A crited whit sosun bow *21454* whit cap dmg+65,535=86,454 not even close to beat the hybrid bow lvl 79.(information about D2A dmg from *dmg leaders topic*)


So i think you guys should accept the fact that a hybrid bow will hit more harder then a full str bow.
