Corsair or Fencer c2?

Hello,

My main focus right now is PvE, My build is dex oriented, Swordman> Peltasta > Barbarian c1 > Barbarian c2 > Corsair > Corsair or Fencer > Fencer.

So, the point is, which build should be more acceptable at parties, funny to play, and do the best DPS at PvE? Corsair c2 or Fencer c2?

Thanks!

It could be any of these:

Swordman> Peltasta > Barbarian c1 > Barbarian c2 > Corsair > Corsair C2 > Fencer

  • For burst DPS With dual wielding

Swordman> Peltasta > Barbarian c1 > Barbarian c2 > Corsair > Fencer > Fencer C2

  • For Sustained DPS and more all around versatility Tank/PVP (iron hook)

I’m Sword > Pel > Barb > Barb > Corsair > Fencer > Fencer at the moment, I’m enjoying myself doing solo dungeon boss rushes(mainly 130), soloing fields, or even parties(like alemeth). Though I’ve only explored up to 230+ maps because I’m waiting for my friends to catch up.

It’s basically Attaque Composee VS Hexxen Dropper for your pierce skill.

Higher JR VS Preparation for other uses, your choice there.

i am Swordman highlander c 3, corsair c 1 and fencer c 1 right now.

and i have no idea if i’ll be able to enjoy corsair c2 fencer c 2 or
corsair c1 and fencer c 3.

can the dps of a corsair c 2 fencer c 2 rival that of a fencer c 3 corsair c 1 ?

if you are like me and you wanted to be able to use a Dagger along with your
rapier here’s a question for you.

did you enjoy being able to use your dagger as a fencer and
was your dps satisfactory enough to still enjoy that choice ?

opinions welcomed !

fencer 3 is the highest dps in this game.

I have both Cor2>Fencer and Cor>Fencer2. Go Fencer2 and then 3.

The only possible path for a Corsair beyond C1 would be to go Hoplite2 Corsair2 Dragoon2. Corsair3 and Non-Dragoon Corsair are both total dead ends.

you mean the only path for a player that has a flexible taste for the specific weapon you’ll have to use to be op.
yes, i agree :stuck_out_tongue:

Fencer C3 does a billion times more damage than Corsair C2. The only reason to go Corsair C2 into Fencer is going Corsair C3 first so you get style points from having a pistol and a rapier. But your build will still be extremely weak.

It isn’t even about being OP, it’s the difference between clearing a group of mobs in one skill rotation and needing to derp around like an idiot waiting for cooldowns because your damage is too low to do that. Trust me, Corsair is in a painful spot.

“it isn’t about being op, it’s the difference between clearing a group of mobs on a skill rotation and needing to derp around like an idiot waiting for cool down”

i don’t disagree, but i had like to add that was the point i was making by “compromising the weapon you want to choose and can’t choose” to be the best you may.

“this post doesn’t end on this sentence, it ends by rereading the post previous to this one”

FYI: runing around like an idiot …i totally agree there, but what about double weapon assault ? that’s 30 seconds flat you can use while waiting for cool down, no ?
Normally i use double weapon assault when all my skills are on cool down.

Double Weapon Assault is really bad. It costs stamina every time you attack, your dagger attacks won’t do a lot of damage anyway, especially against high level mobs, and it forces you to stand in place and take hits. Also it doesn’t even work with a pistol, making C3 Corsair even worse.

to be corsair c2 …sigh.

FYI: i actually like double weapon assault.
cause there was no use for stamina other than Dash runing on the game.
or whatever monks do too.
so little does stamina gets involved with the game, i liked that concept of DWA consuming stamina, which could be supported by stamina pills or
Oracle Buffs.
i seen many videos with bad odds showing how good is double weapon assault …
well…
i also saw a video from KTOS with a guy doing 2000 damage per sword&dagger waves.
i think with the right gears, double weapon assault can be good probably in the future, for fencer.
i’ll definitely go c 2 for rank 9.

Which is jack ■■■■ against mobs that have 300-500k hp and hits 5-10k of your hp, that’s only one mob, you wont have the leisure to AA at any point past r8

Yes for the future, but as of now DWA is bad since, it’s basically AA that locks you in place just to swing two weapons at the same time, actually scratch, a full crit of 2overheats of Hexen5 of a Fencer3 JR10 and Hook10 as utilty at r9 would be far more welcome.
DWA=AA, exponentially risky at later levels, not recommended unless you have a cleric babysitting you 24/7 while grinding.

If you go C2 Fencer you will never use Double Weapon Assault again because you’ll be spamming Composee. There’s literally no reason for a Fencer to ever autoattack.

fencer’s cool down is everlasting ?
i figured at some point i would use up all my fencer skills and have them on cool down
then use double assault at that moment.

Composee is a 0 cooldown skill that does pretty respectable damage.
