This is my first character and would like to hear your guys’ thoughts on my pure auto attack build.
I plan on allocating my stats mostly on DEX for that delicious crit chance. It’ll be a DEX 3:1 STR ratio.
EDIT #1 Currently my Gung Ho is maxed out at lv15, I’d like it to stay that way for as long as possible. If at higher levels i keep getting knocked down etc… I’ll have to sacrifice either Concentrate(probably this one) or Gung Ho to max out Pain Barrier.
you’re going in for a long hard ride. you’ll have an easy time pre R7 maybe, but come R7 and R8 mobs you’ll really have hard time.
It is pretty bad build…
what about rank 8? 20 char
I havn’t thought that far yet, and frankly I’m not quite sure I’ll even make it there.
imo if you want an AA character, go for Archer. auto attack builds doesn’t bode well with swordsman. You’ll be hitting an estimate of 3-5k per crit slash on 400k hp mobs on R8 maps.
Ouch…

This^, the fact that swordie aspd can only be increased via DOV and Chrono’s Quicken, AA swordie are built for suicide and suffering in late game.
The closest swordie build resembling AA spamming are from the Fencers since they have a 0cd skill.
Thanks for the replies everyone. I knew my build sucked balls but i didn’t know it sucked THAT much. You would think that while other builds might not be optimal, they would still be viable.
I’ll have to think about what I’ll do from now on. I might just make a whole new character(an archer) or continue my DEX swordsman as it is. I’m currently on swordsman c3 rank 13. There might still be hope for me, plus it’d be at total waste of 30 hours and a lv74.
you can still continue it and maybe go for a Fencer build, most famous now is (sw3-pelt-cors-fencer3), the only problem you’ll encounter is obtaining the optimal weapon for Fencer which is the headache for everyone, Venier. but yeah if AA is your thing, Archer is your class.
wasting hours in this game is norm. I’ve wasted more than 900+ hours rerolling 10 different swordsman class variations until I figured out what I really want.
QS3 then I guess, but do keep in mind QS3 RunningShot AA is single target only, you’d likely want to get a class that can do AOE damage at later ranks.
CobaltForest only has 1 channel now.
I pity the new Fencers that are going to go thru LizardAmber hell.

Just as @migzzz said you can still keep your Sw3 for a Fencer.
I was doing my new char yesterday and I saw that. it’s really gonna be hell, a doppel can make it less bad but it’s really gonna be worse farming those ambers.
