Can anyone tell me if a build focusing around Barrage + Feint & Multi Shot + Circling is viable? (Purely PvE focused) Also is it even worth putting points into Full Draw for the defense reduction? Should I go Musketeer or Cannoneer for Rank 7? Any input appreciated.
Current build would look like this http://www.tosbase.com/tools/skill-simulator/build/6c43penxb6/
This isn’t terrible, but it needs a lot of work. If a skill is worth putting points into it’s worth maxing then.
Archer C1: Full Draw sucks because it only pins 2 mobs or something low. Put those points into oblique.
Ranger C1: Critical shot should be rank 1 only. You only want to spam it for 62% crit chance.
Archer C2: Since you’re going to PvE don’t get Full Draw still. Kneeling Shot is lame unless you go QS. 1 Point in heavy shot is useless. More points in oblique here.
Archer C3: Twin arrows is good.
Rouge: Rouge is weak unless you go C2 for Backstab I would assume.
Falconer C1: At this point Circling will only help you with AoE of Multishot. All your other skills are too weak in this build since you have rouge and no Ranger C3
Musketeer: I think Headshot isn’t that great. Maybe for bosses but you’re lacking AoE so get Penetration shot.
imo it’s not worth getting ranger c1
just go straight archer c3>scout>rogue>falconer>musketeer
if you want to combo feint with barrage, you have to go for ranger c3 for barrage lvl15
Do not listen to him ^
lvling oblique shot sucks
you will always run out of sp
you will waste tons of silvers just to refill the sp potions
Umm does anyone know if feint + barrage actually still work in iToS? since it’s kinda a hidden synergy that might be fixed
Well I was just wondering if it’s worth getting for the defense reduction attribute.
The main purpose of this build would be to make use of the Feint + Barrage interaction, which requires rogue.
Would be it more reasonable to go Cannoneer to get more out of Circling then?
Wouldn’t scout be a waste, since I’m purely focusing on PvE and none of the scout skills seem to be worthwhile PvE skills? Also do you think giving up on a maxed Swift Step + Multi Shot to get a stronger Barrage? (or go C2 on both possibly?)
you could go archer c2>ranger c3
you still would have swift step and multishot 10/10
Full draw would be worth it if you planned to do PvP. Otherwise it isn’t effective against big groups.
To be honest I had no idea what you meant when you said “Feint and Barrage Interaction”. I’ve looked at the skill now and I don’t think taking some evasion away from monsters boost your damage tremendously. Evasion isn’t crit resist when we’re talking about mobs, I would think.
I read a post somewhere that someone thinks it takes a long time for Musketeer to take some it’s shots while it’s grinding and that Cannoneer would be the better R7 class. I have no clue if Cannoneer skills have an AoE ratio limit, but unless you really want “Snipe” from Muskteteer. It’d probably would be better to go Cannoneer.
In the end just do what you want. You’ll do the DPS!
feint makes barrage hit 10 times intead of 5 at point blank on ktos whether it does on itos yet i havent had a chance to confirm
well I can confirm that
I was thinking if Barrage+Feint would work endgame, since it’s 10 hits it should scale well.
Sadhu oob ground magic circle hidden buff got removed.
I fear this combo will got remove too.
