Is it fine to ask for an explanation on the fencer skills? Like why this skill and why is it max and why not?

There really wasn’t an explanation on the fencer skills.
It does consume a good amount of mana though.

Here’s the video on the build : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyqxGsyp08E

Here’s a vid of my fencer (and a few other tests I posted on that channel) and the skill build is in the description of one of them if you’re interested.

Basically I rely on HL skills to farm mobs with 100k~ hp because it’s not as costly. If I used Fencer skills all the time, I’d chug SP pots a lot (hence why I don’t solo HG 315 because the silver return is so bad).

I reserve my Fencer skills for quick bursts or when mobs clump >5

Personally I do not max out Attaque au fer and leave it at 1 point reason being that the hit box is crap and the dmg wasnt too good,I put 1 point into this skill.
skill:
Lunge-1- actually quite useless, filler skill, I would add this 1 point to another skill when next rank reset came reason being that you are busy doing other things so you barely use this filler skill.

sept etoiles-15- one of the main dmg skill, max it out

Attaque coquille-4: debuff, deal more dmg with pierce dmg, but I heavily suspect this one is bugged because I dont feel much difference. 8 sec cd, at lvl 4= 8 sec debuff, so keep at lvl 4 is enough.

Flacoonade/ Esquive Toucher: completely useless after fencer c3 is out, flacoonade is slash atk and esquive toucher has one of the worst hit box and high cd.

Attaque Composee - 10 nothing outstanding, a low cd medicore dmg skill, but it is pierce atk so>flacoonade.

Preparation - 1 double the next pierce atk dmg you do, a skill help you burst like a god, geared fencer with this skill easily hit capped dmg 555555 if crit, but only 1 point is needed because add more just increase the block during the skill duration, note: do not auto atk after the skill it will consume the effect(rapier auto= pierce), but you can do other skill that is not pierce element.

Balestra Fente - 5 reduce crit resist on enemy, max it out because it is the only skill that can consider to be an aoe…well, crappy aoe is better than nothing.

Attaque au Fer - 1 filler dmg skill, 1 is enough.

Flash - 5 your highest dmg skill

Epee Garde - 5 MOST IMPORTANT SKILL FOR FENCER, ACTIVATES THIS SKILL AND IF YOU CRIT, YOU HIT LIKE A GOD, I HIT LIKE 150K WHEN CRIT WITH 315 BLUE WEAPON WITH PREPARATION USING Balestra Fente. IT INCREASES YOU CRIT DMG BY 50%(only applies to pierce atk). But on the negative side, if you crit rate are low, well you are screwed.

Edit: the guy’s video above me is a great example of a geared fencer, im still trying to get my Black horn T T

You must have watch Denmachi a lot!
Nice cosplay

I’d like to chime in a little on this part:

Personally I do not max out Attaque au fer and leave it at 1 point reason being that the hit box is crap and the dmg wasnt too good,I put 1 point into this skill.

Personally I disagree because I can only cap 555k with Balestra (prepa+moles) with a good crit whereas I always cap a crit Au Fer and even hit 555k non-crit on it with prepa+mole, for reals, that shi t hits like a truck.

Personally I only put 1 on composee because it’s so friggin expensive (i’m cheap ;-:wink: and I only use it as a filler when doing bosses (30m+ hp)

Keep farming those Lyonis! Man…getting those drops were excruciating but kinda fun.

Haha, yeah. Danmachi gave me the urge to try out MMORPGs again (I vowed never to play again because shi t is life consuming).

That’s why I don’t build any chars outside my cosplay and I tend to be strict with my character faithfulness (That’s why I never took pelt/shield for Aiz, I gave dagger a pass cause, ya know, hestia knife and all that)

omg those yellow dmg :open_mouth:
Can you let me know your skill build, stats and gears please? Is this build viable for the new WB patch? or doppel will still outdmg this?

Check out the mission test video, my skill build is right there.

It’s pretty viable, I’ve taken down bosses with decent time, all I need is a healer.

Most probably if the Doppel has a good Sarkmis and attributes for bosses 30m + hp. For bosses 2m-5mish, I’d have a fair chance.

Gracias! I assume you have red gems on your weapons? What is your enhancement level and attributes atm. (I’m just computing the expenses here if ever I decided to create one)

/20huechars (I do have a pajo 2slots atm)

Waiting for fencer attributes… see you all at 2020.

Nope, I’m using green gems. I got lucky and made it to +16 with a trans 6 (not planning to increase it anymore). Attributes are mostly 50 for my maxed skills (I think I have around 20-25m only on attribute points overall).

But the one you should really save up for are the lvl 10 glassmole cards. Multipliers are the ■■■■, especially with prepa and epee.

I need to upgrade my Nyx tho, too lazy to ET

Are you not planning to use full leather? atleast 315blue leathers?

I already got a 1 slot purple leather, waiting on the market for the bottom, then imma use Lolopanther gloves and boots if my budget allows.

Personally I’d rather save up for r9 attributes tho depending on my budget. Silver is hard.

what is your current stat distribution again?

I only have like 60 invested in dex and dumped the rest on str so I could 1 shot with double slash yellow caros and leafnut (I used their hp as a benchmark)

I know HL2 is the reccomended, but would Barb2 instead be that bad? Fencer gods please answer me call :pray:

I went for barb 2, it wasnt bad, but it’s kinda lame, the only skill I use is war shout and cleave, rest is meh, frenzy is a insane dmg boost skill, but , but, you will not have time to stack it, and speaking of seism? Low dmg, nothing outstanding except a bit cc effect, but it does not fit into the fencer combo because of its animation.
