barb is good, but highlander skils scale better on high level, and considering that this game will have 500+ levels id take highlander ( u can feel the scale when u hit like 260+)
and u can get corsair or peltast for more utility
i’m going sword3>high>corsair>doppel2 but its untested build. i believe is the best doppel build u can go, but i’m probably the first one doing it so…
i want to go for sw c2 > barb c2 > cor c2 > doppel.
After the buffs to Barb, it is still a better choice to go High C3 for Doppel C2?
Thanks
Highlander 1 is pretty bad for mid-late game.
highlander 1 is awesome dude o.o
Compared to most C1s at the same rank yeah damage wise but apart from that. C2 - C3 is where it really matters. The benefits of highlander 1 are lost at around Rank 5 apart from block.
Or I just don’t see it? you’d have to elaborate on why you’d go highlander at rank 4
block (block, dude u have no defense as doppel),
wagon well (knock down),
crown (have u seen the magic mobs? or zucken…),
50% crti atack(!!),
catar stroke (only strike dmg skill in the build 0.5 secs cast, AoE and multihit, dont forget the “remove knockback” atributte for full awesomeness)
=)
I have barb c2 and High c3 both are nice choices, barb have Stun, 50% critical rate and damage bonus for stun targets. Warcry and frenzy, seism is rlly nice skill.
I think if u want AA based build u go for barb.
Highlander is awesome and very easy to grid in early game. ~<3
Doesn’t cross guard put you in a stance? It’s useful but doppels are in constant animations and you have restrain to cover for that.
You have 2 skills that knock down at that point so it’s not that useful and the one in your swordsman tree has a higher Aoe hit ratio.
There’s a huge misconception/trap with crit attack that you have to watch out for.
50% crit attack is not the full critical strike. It’s for that flat amount that you get added after the crit happens. If you crit for 5000 and you have 20 crit attack then your damage is 5020.
You can get 600 crit attack if you go full STR at level 280 and so Highlander’s Passive will give you an additional 300. But that’s if you Crit. By level 280 your critical strikes are way into the 10ks so an addition 400 damage 50% of the time isn’t anything major to your dps. You’ll also crit at most 30% of the time with no crit resist involved.
You already have a skill that does shock in the doppel tree, and it’s funny because the cooldown is lower than the one in the Highlander tree. But 2 debuff opportunity doesn’t hurt. It serves to wonder if the opportunity to use both will present itself on the battlefield.
Catar stroke I’m only going by ear in hearing that it loses effectiveness later on.
well everything i had to say about highlander c1 i alredy said, and nothing is changed =)
*i know what crit atack is lol
***and catar stroke is like any multihit skill, scales well on high lvls
Hey guys,
I’m currently Swordsman and Highlander Class 2 and soon Class 3, not sure where to go after this.
I’m keen for mostly PvE and not doing PvP at all. My skill distribution is about 4:1:2 (str:con:dex)
Should I be going to swordsman c1 -> highlander c3 -> doppel c2? or is Dragoon a better alternative?
New to this game so I’m not sure what I should be doing
Thanks.
some people like fencer after highlander, but doppel is fine too.
but skills build ? D:
