Guide to Fencer / Doppel / Bullet Marker [PVE]

I might have a heart attack there. Even back then in RO, Swordies were never considered highest DPS class. Same thing here in TOS.

Funny thing is I realized that in order for Swordie to dish out the same amount of DPS compared with pure DPS classes, expensive gears are required. This also happened in RO when God items were needed. Normal folks don’t get to use God items, only top tier guilds have them

it’s more of a pvp/boss build since it has bad aoe and dps. its a weaker version of barbie/fencer for pve. but for boss, it has armor break that archers will love and lunge for another swordsman like barbie and dopel increased dmg. for pvp, you gain crossguard which is nice for pvp with both blocking burst and snaring them while also increasing your pierce damage.

the combos are
skull swing > cross cut > lunge > skyliners
or
(crossguard if possible) preparation > coquille/skull swing > sept
or (crossguard if possible) coquille/swull swing > composee to infinity

also it cries whenever it is faced against a non-bleeding plate mob

That’s MMORPG for ya. And it’s human nature to be obsessed with numbers. If something is hard to understand, just assign numbers to them

What is your PC specs? I don’t see sudden drop in fps while casting skills much, only in big party

No. No. Just… No.

I have yet experience how Swordie performs in TOS so I prefer to refrain saying my opinion of Swordie in ToS.

But in RO, a MVP Lord Knight can be built by using 2 Meg which increase 40 Strength each. The maximum Strength can be increased from status points is 99. That’s a lot of money involved for a LK to compete with an Asura Monk in killing bosses

I bet your fps dropped to 40, right? That must be so painful, your eyes have accustomed to 60 fps and you can’t turn back to anything lower than 60 anymore

Unfortunately, I am very well aware of what any class can do RO-wise. But this:

From here I took that you were refering to ToS Swordies and only then to RO’s. Syntax mistake or my own fault, either way is fine. Just don´t expect to even get close to a decent DPS class with a Swordie in Tos, at least not currently. One can dream for the future though! (Save us patch Jebus and Rank 8 :persevere:)

Edit: They’re still pretty fun to play though so please go ahead.

Weapon swapping is a well-known issue. That is dev work.

Skills spamming is another problem. I only notice extreme fps drop during lag spike, not much in normal gameplay

Sorry, my bad. I only read a lot about Swordie in TOS, have yet to fully experience how effective Swordie can perform.

In the first post, Lostac did mention that Fencer does require decent gears and attributes investment to reach okay DPS. I must have used it in my opinion

PS: Fun is a subjective matter but I do agree with you that Swordie is pretty fun to play

Can’t remember that many sunny days in London recently. You haven’t missed much. Today is OK though. :smiley:

Well, both Pally and Monk are subpar at the moment but I’ve messed the stats on this cleric already, got quite a bit of Str, some Dex, some Int, some Con. I could still go for high Dex pally. Maybe later on I’ll make a Cleric-Priest-Monk. Hopefully, they’ll do something with Pardoners because you can get Barrier from a scroll making Pally pretty useless.

At least, it isn’t raining today.

Since your Cleric is still at low level, why don’t you reroll?

Well, I only use her to play with low level friends but they are hardly ever on. Plus it’s still salvagable, I’d rather roll a separate character later. And I’m not losing the team level exp (however puny the amount is :D).

I started my Swordie a few days ago when I read this thread. Now she is 66. Not to mention I kinda spent the entire yesterday to farm Lizard Amber. The journey from 1 to 50 is rather fast, no matter which base class

Sure, so is getting to 100. I’m just concentarting on my Swordie at the moment. Maybe I’ll reroll later…maybe I won’t.

Same here, It’s so fun and refreshing to play a brand new class. So much to learn
