Hi~
Does anyone know if sapper’s trap scales along with rogue’s sneak hit?
Example, setting up the trap and moving behind enemies or bosses for sneak hit to proc.

Next, I am thinking of going rogue for capture skill for sapper build, ie. A2 > S2 > R…
So my questions,

  1. Is rouge 2 nessasery? If so, how much should I invest in capture?
  2. Going rogue 1 or 2, I’ll have 1 more circle to choose from, I would like to know which circle is more viable for overall PvE and GvG?
    Rogue 2 > cannon/scout
    Or
    Rogue 1 > falc 1 > cannon/scout
    Or
    Rogue 1 > scout 1 > cannon

I understand rogue 2 is better with dagger offhand with backstab, so is cannon a good with rogue? Should I go with scout 1 instead?
Falc is mainly for support with circling, and so, would cannon or scout be better with rogue 1?

Any information is appreciated, and I’m open to criticism too! Thanks in advance~ :smiley:

Yeah, traps works with sneak hit, you need to stay behind enemies so your traps will crit

  1. you won’t need rogue c2, rogue c1 is fine, you need to expend only one point in capture
  2. depends on your preference, both scout/falconer is viable, scout for pvp because of cloaking, or use cloaking to move around some maps so you won’t get hit by anyone
    or falconer to extend your aoe from cannoneer, also helps your party too, and for pvp you can use hovering to knock down the enemies

any alternatives to A1>R3>F2>F3/Cannoneer for an AoE build that’s easy to level? I’m currently at A1>R2

A1> R2 > ? > ? >? Cannoneer

#271

you can go for R3 or Archer C2
i would recommend archer c2 for the swift step’s crit rate attribute
since you will be spamming fletcher’s skills
you won’t use ranger’s skills that much
except for steady aim and barrage because of the aoe/burst of it

#272

well I’m also still undecided whether to take A2 or R2. will i be missing out a lot if i dont get A2?

#273

not much
just multishot lvl10/swift step lvl10 and the 25% crit rate bonus

#274

what about going for falc? I’m looking for something that can synergize with party runs like having swift step or circling from falc

#275

Thanks for the reply~ :smiley:

Last 2 questions, capture allows you to capture the spells casted on the ground, from reading above posts, it seems lv1 is able to capture all skills within the area? Is that a bug? Or did i misread the skill description and it’s working as it is supposed to?
Lastly, when I capture say maybe 2 or 3 skills/spells, when I reuse capture, it will throw everything out in one shot?

Oops… sorry… was meant to cc ibasquiet~

#276

swift step won’t do much for your party
unless you are with anothers archers/swordsman with a lot of evade
falc is fine, you can use hovering as a damage ability/with the utility of knock down, and circling to amplify your party’s aoe

#277

Yeah correct, you can capture all skills on the ground with just 1 level of capture, it is bugged.
yeah it will throw everything in the area that you will cast

#278

wait, doesnt the crit rate +25% affect everyone? wouldnt it be a better boost than steady aim?

#279

Feedback on this?

Barrage + Feint combo
Broom trap + capture combo

#280

Thoughts on this build, anyone? for PvE and for fun
A2 > S2 > F2 > F3/Cannoneer

#281

just affect you

looks fine
i would get roost on falconer
i don’t know if you need it since i don’t play falconer, but every build has it

#283

Guys… im so confused… im looking for a effectivy build for earth tower … what do u guys suggest EXCLUSIVE for earth tower ??

#284

Guys which seems to be better. Mostly duo with swordman

A3>R2>Fal>Cannon vs A2>R3>Fal>Cannon

  • Main concern is whether A3>R2 or A2>R3 is better.
  • A3 seems to somehow work better with falconer’s circling (multishot + circling), plus twin arrow is better to spam
  • R3 has 15 barrage which hits like a truck, + spiral arrow as well. However, unlike multishot, barrage doesn’t work well with circling. Does have bounce shot as extra aoe though
  • If comparing A3 vs R3, which one has better damage and which one has better AOE?

Will any of the skills be less useful after i become a cannoneer?

Another path i considered is A3>R1>RO>Fal>Cannon

  • Instead of higher level barrage from R2, use feint to have 10 hits of barrage instead + other skills from Rogue.

Really torn between so many possible combinations.

#285

Any ideas if a Full Con Archer would be usefull and/or possible. Any idea of classes in that case cenario?

#286

Archer QS QS QS Scout ? ? -q

#287

heard ranger 2 is quite useless, you go ranger 3 or stay ranger 1, i’d go ranger1 rogue1
