Hm interesting, however rush dog has AoE attack ratio mechanics.

Even if it is a small hitbox, it is enhanced by aiming.
And growling, man growling is amazing.

I’ve got rush dog lv 15 right now and it isn’t that bad. While yes it is not that impressive in damage, it deals just as much or sometimes more damage than a sonic strike cast from right now, and they’ll be (at the moment) so much similar too.

Yeah, AoE is always good, but as Falconer 3 it’s not as much required,
especially if you’re going to advance into an AoE Class at Rank 9 anyway.
Post-buff Cannoneer e.g. looks promising for covering the AoE-problems of Archer/Hunter, same goes for Mergen.

If I’m going to run for that build anyway, I think I’ll advance towards Cannoneer instead of Mergen, because Mergen has too much CD time on his skills to make them really appealing, + he’s missing the attack range required to pull of amazing combos/attacks and requires a twohanded bow for his skills.
Archer skills can be used with Crossbow&Shield and Crossbow&Cannon, making it easy to switch subweapons inbetween if required to survive.

Meanwhile, Cannoneer has range, high base AoE (the better skills have +10 to +15 AoE attack ratio) and low CD time skills like e.g. Siege Burst & Cannon Blast, which can be amplified in damage by up to 100% when going into the Bazooka Stance and another 50% by Smoke Grenade.

It’s happening! :smiley:


I learned right away that Multi Shot is not my friend. :innocent:


2nd try and done: :smiley:

F*ck yeah that was exhilarating!

from 8:39 to 8:51, around 10 minutes of fighting. didnt get oneshotted?

I got one-shot (14K) in my first attempt when I tried to Multi Shot.

I did it again and I just went around the boss in circles while AA-ing (conservatively) and puttin down Flare Shot (Lv5). I got hit 2x within that fight (by his quick lunge) and it hits for 9K. Occasionally I would Feint-Barrage, to hype it up.




What can I comfortably leave my Circling: Expand at? I’m using my Silvers to buy Yellow Caro Antenna so I can pass my Aufgowle to this char.

What else do I have to learn (skills) in Falconer tree?

Thanks!

so at ktos thread, someone mentioned that stat changes were implemented over at official ktos servers already, and next is jtos next month (last week of May), so maybe on us will be around June or July?

anyways, my question is about the choices i’ll do when rank reset hits us:

Archer-QS3-Scout1-Falc3

  • (going Hacka at R9, already got Didel Grand Cross ready for this, Marble Grand Cross not yet in game?)

Archer-Ranger3-Rogue1-Falc3

  • (going Mergen at R9)

what do you guys think? especially to those that did one of the builds, what were your experiences PvP and PvE wise? thanks!

side note: it seems Minotaur and Templeshooter card can both proc at the same time, haven’t determined the internal CD of each, can someone test too with 4x mino and temple?

aiming lv 5 is a must.
first strike lv 5 is good too.

regarding circling:expand, how frequent do you use circling in your combo rotation? expand level 10 is good enough, 50% chance being copied. You can focus on buying yellow caro antenna first though. When i changed to falconer3, there was a 20% discount attribute deadline and i am nontokener, so circling:expand attribute became my top priority

Barely, it’s mostly feint-barrage that does it for me. :stuck_out_tongue:

Looks like I’m all set then! Thanks~

Multishot was my only friend during that boss fight xD the rest of my skills couldn’t take much of a chunk, But yeah one of the fun bosses haha.

me too, maybe because we both have bad ping. Everytime i casted my flare shot to the boss, the flare is appeared 1 second later.

i just saw your skill distribution, pheasant lv 1 is a good area knockdown. Hanging shot lv 1 is good for passing furniture/barrier in saalus and mission.
How do you feel your falconer3’s DPS for bossing?
I found out that feint+barrage can be used on structure too

I’m currently wielding a +6 Khasti Bow ( failed from +8 going to +10, and I can’t get back to 8 :stuck_out_tongue: ), it’s mediocre right now. But I know for sure once I get my Auf Bow, it’ll have great sustained DPS.

I died the first and only time I used it… never again :wink:

…me too, still using khasti at lv 320 while opening mystical cube every 24 hour. Too bad hawk exp doesnt increased if i eat exp card

curious as why there is no archer2 in your build eventhough it can give free 100 crit rate…

hmm, its better going Archer2-QS3 in that case?

edit: i really like cloaking from scout, and the +50% damage it gives when you do a skill

i dont know which one is better, just curious because you are not the only one who dont include archer2 in post patch build. is it because multishot got fixed hit regardless of level? That free 100 crit rate is more than 2 lv 7 green gem in main weapon can give.
cloaking +50% dmg only work for the 1st hit of your next skill.
cloaking-multishot lv 10 will boost the 1st hit by 50%, but the rest 9 hit wont get boosted.

i guess it comes down to preference, i wonder how many hits does Rapid Fire give at Lv.10, Cloaking says when you use a skill +50% damage, does it apply to true multi hit or fake multi?

if its per skill, then Lv.10, (363 x 1.5)% x number of hits, and will the critical resist removal apply on first hit?

edit: so it’s the first hit of the skill, hmm. so its good to use it with Sonic Strike coz it’s a fake multi hit?

cloaking +50%dmg applied to both true and fake multihit. I find the best use for it is cloaking+snipe. Sorry, never played QS, cant comment on that

i see, i guess sacrifice the 100 crit rate for the cloaking utility or take it for dps

edit: or maybe, just go Archer2-QS3, and have a ton of defense to prevent being one shot, drop the cloaking utility and take a high defense shield, because QS got an attribute Shield Mastery: Missile Defense, when you block a missile attack, +200% (if maxed) attack buff in 10 secs based on shield’s defense, and i think doing autos with that bonus 100 crit rate is nice.

too bad rapid fire is a true multi hit, not a nice synergy with cloaking

MUAHAHAHA!:smiling_imp:

Yep, best boss fight I had in this game. Welcome to the Falcon Club!

There is no internal CD. I have both on my archer and was doing some testing. @redwea Its beautiful :cry: I went 4 mino and 4 temple.[quote=“myself, post:697, topic:331774”]

The reason I’m not getting Archer 2 in a similar build is because:
I want to be able to have hunter, so no room.
Multishot is already a 10 hit skill now, so no point in going higher.
I’ll never use kneeling even though I am going dex auto attack speed. I want to stay as mobile as possible with my build.
Full draw is good at lvl 3.

This only leaves one reason to go archer 2 for me. One skill that buffs a stat by a flat amount is not enough for me to waste a rank on.
