Most Fun Build: Your Thoughts

Post by fena »

Hey, SRF Community! :)

I was just wondering about your opinions, about what you would consider the most fun build?
Take into consideration, that, while PvPing is not the entire game, if you consider it to be a good size of what makes SRO fun, then you should certainly put some thought into picking which build you find the most fun - obviously, if you consider PvPing a large part of the game, having a decent PvP build would influence your decision.
That was just an example... while something may not be the entire game in itself, whatever you consider fun, definently include it into your vote upon the most fun build.

Look foward to hearing your thoughts. :D
If you have any comments about why you picked what you pick, feel free to include it as well!

A Pure STR Blader has to be the funnest build. I mean bladers get cool slahing attacks that hit people from afar, and to top it their chains kick ass. Have you seen those crazy flips they do while using a chain, most definantly the funnest build for me.

I really love being an archer. I might try other builds but archer is just what suits best for me. Pacheonmun all the way.

However, I also like Chain Spear Shura and the chains... If it didn't take so long to take them, I'd have other type of characters as well.

I don't enjoy nuking, I find it boring after two levels.

I find my pure str blader can be very fun in that the skills are pretty nice and it is fun to tank alot more players/monsters than other builds. Only drag is the slow lvling and the sometimes weak damage which can cause pot wars.

A dual wield hybrid int who nukes would probably be the most fun build to play.

You have two weapon skills to switch between and nuke.
At a 90 cap I would only see a dual wielder with bicheon/heuksal Lighting force 90 fire 30 getting away with this.
Or Lighting 30 fire 90 :P >.>

ok well they don't really suck just mine did = p

And the reason I find them fun is that you can get both nukes and chains instead of one or the other and still do some nice dmg

[rant]Oi, I am sick of these topics. The funnest build is the one you like the best. The strongest build isnt any one build. It comes down to equipment, skill in using the skills you have. How farmed you are in SP. So there isnt a "STRONGEST BUILD OVERALL, OR A FUNNEST BUILD OVERALL" There is only builds that you like and builds that you dislike. There are only builds that suck because the player is a complete noob, or the build sucks due the fact that it isnt very farmed and the equipment sucks. END OF STORY! [/endrant]

Now with that being said I hope to GOD! That these threads dont keep popping up. Hell I might even take the sentences I just wrote and ask for a fugging sticky! :D

I'm not asking you what you think the build I would find most enjoyable is - I'm asking you what build I think YOU find most enjoyable. I don't know why it's so wrong just to want to hear your opinion here.
I never asked about the strongest build - I explicitly said that whether you take a build being strong in PvP or not into consideration when replying to my question, is whether you consider PvP a fun, and large part of SRO.
If so, then yes, take it into consideration.
If you don't think so, then don't take it into consideration, and then, consider something else - the level of grinding, the looks of the moves and the equipment, whatever you think is cool about your build.

Opinions?

Thanks. :)
I'm actually thinking of rerolling and either picking between a Pure STR Bow and a Pure STR Glavie.

I always hear that Glavie is boring as hell in PvP though... and in PvE as well. All you do is mash SSS and hope you get a stun, and then a crit? :P

Full int S/S. You can use a wide variety of moves (for pve), so it's not always the same: 7 nukes, combos (as bladers), kd and stab... For pvp: nukes and kd and stab, all with some strategy or you are dead. No risk no fun :D

70:70 hybrid bow was and is the best fun for me. Pure INT spear is also really cool.

not a great argument to back up your build since every build benefit from good gear.

most fun build is a blade with force. surviving and giving others a hand since the game is biased and way too focused on the 1on1 and who is the richest kid in town wins game instead the game should be lets have fun help each others while enjoying a game.

My bad :roll: INT Hybrids are tankers as well as nukers. My main skill is KD+stab+nuke. I don't have to worry about dying much and can survive tanking 5-10 mobs my level(even more with my current gear). Aside from the survivability, damage is much higher than pure strength. Crits are okay. I do admit pures get twice the damage while I get only 1.5 times. Still, its a benefit. Nukes won't hit as hard yet as my balance is only 76%phy and 100% magical with gear. But compared to how a nuke recharges, more damage is actually dealt with KD+stab+stab over time. At my level, I can deal other builds pretty well especially with shield crit parry. Dunno how I'll do at 80 when glaive users get ??K of HP. I'll find out eventually 8)

Hope this is better :wink:

70:70 Bow, moderate HP/Def means keeping on your toes.. you get mobbed and you're downed, makes the game somewhat more fun.
