what i meant is, 3 stabbings are already over 30 hits. i think 1 stabbing is about 13-15 hits. never tested this one.
what music u use on this video sir ??, its so good XD
So lets speak with kTos patch, does pouncing better/same as a Hop ?
I havent tested yet, but so long as there are mobs around you warcry has a high uptime after the ktos buff.
Music by Chalili:
Alright after 30 days I can finally play again, which means I can make videos again, so I made one to try to sort of back up claims I’ve made on these forums. Such as:
- Fencer C2 is worth it
- Flanconnade can be good DPS when used in the right situations
- Fencer overall has pretty nice DPS
- You can infinitely use flanconnade and composee without having to worry about SP
- Going really high dex doesn’t really hinder your DPS that much
- Evasion can be pretty good (Though this isn’t really a good example because the evasion formula involves monster levels to be fair)
- I don’t usually feel the need to manually dodge incoming attacks
I could have played a LOT better (Like not getting knocked down by magic fire and actually using my barbarian skills), but it has been a while since I’ve played this character and fencer is one of the more difficult classes for me to play, so pls bare with me for now
Also not quite sure how I want to set up the cooldown tracking addon it’s my first time using it so I hope all the BS on the screen isn’t too much of an eyesore.
Bonus from a failed recording:
Yes, we do, that’s because of composee and flanconnade. But I’ve cleared this up, AOE wise you won’t be seeing any better. So my fencer is pretty much left as a boss rusher, my doppel is doing much better performance wise when farming on fields.
To be honest I’ve had much easier time leveling my experimental high dex doppel than my fencer, that’s mainly because of Cyclone and 2H Sword free aoe ratio. Cyclone technically isn’t really a problem since you could freely use the two charges with pain barrier. Sometimes I even turn the attribute off sometimes to give it less cooldown, specially on melee maps.
Pretty much what dex stat is and what makes fencers. High str builds exist to synergize with other classes you’ve taken prior to fencer.
And of course most people will actually hesitate to take high dex knowing str has a rank bonus, but I’ve ignored this part too and I’m actually happy with it that I gave my doppel the same stat distribution
I think I’ll make my highlander c3 alt into another fencer to see if it’s better at boss rushing after repository merge. It should be.
As for the experimental doppel, I’m still deciding to take doppel c2 or fencer c1.
This is something I really wanted to try as well. I’m pretty interested in seeing how it does performance wise when you reach a point that you’re willing to showcase it (You may be at that point now, I have no idea what level you are)
If you’re saying that because of my issues I’ve stated about cyclone, it wasn’t really cyclone itself that was the problem. With hoplite doppel I had to pick between using pain barrier for cyclone or stabbing. If you don’t have any other skills that can suffer from getting cancelled, cyclone is (i assume so anyway) great
Flat additive scaling is flat additive scaling no matter what kind of bonus it gets, so I’m with you on that one too
Is this assuming we get no cooldown skyliner? [quote=“Lostac, post:708, topic:300257”]

Since it’s an experiment, I’d personally go with doppel 2 (if you’re looking for opinions anyway. This also goes against my first quote response. I should have read all the way before replying!)
Oh, and you’re completely right about lack of AoE. But AoE isn’t really my focus with fencer anyway I guess
My doppel currently is pretty much unstoppable until mages come (lol why do I even need to say this)
So far all physical monsters including elites hit me for 1-100, mostly they miss.
I’ll probably make a new thread showcasing it if it’s a successful experiment.
And yes the highlander is assuming we get no cd skyliner, I stopped it at HL3 because it’s actually crap, learned my lesson the hard way on why people rerolled, cartar stroke and skull swing is one of the few things i loved on it though
at first I thought plates were going to be a problem too similar to my fencer, but hey cata blade is pretty op it even boosts sacrament attacks.
@Proxied: What were you banned for? If not botting
@Lostac: I look forward seeing your result. Btw, is there any viable High Dex build for post 200+? I am holding on my Barb 2 waiting for new patches to decide her class path. So itching to experiment new things
Not sure if there are any, fencer seems to be very viable but has limited uses due to aoe problems, but you’ll shine on bosses very much as long as they’re either cloth or leather.
and yeah I can’t hold off experimenting myself, so far I had zero problems on everything with my doppel, a taunt+2 cyclones literally wipes elites(yes, I am still at full hp) , hopefully it stays the same on maps like workshop/rasvoy, which I expect it to be with how things are going so far
similar to my fencer, 63 str 62 con 189 dex, probably less con though I haven’t decided yet, I’m using plate here so I can’t decide yet if I need the same amount of con.
barb doppel suffer vs plate mobs though
my doppel2 need about 1min to kill the 130 mineloader while my other char is about 35s ish o.0
really doppel2 only good for cyclone and deeds, other skill is just improved moulinet with slighly lesser animation
Yes, but we have Cata blade to support us for that matter, and those that took HL still have cartar stroke which should be the best strike source even until doppel
oh and doppel 2 has something else I want, finally more “reliable” skills lol
And with the test build I’m using I will rarely use deeds, probably with a cleric baby sitting me, solo-wise I probably won’t unless it’s a dungeon boss rush, since defense is pretty important for self sustain.
I have no idea lol and IMC basically ignored me the entire time and didn’t acknowledge my ban. The most info I have is “Using a third party program in breech of our terms of service”
You’re probably included in the wave bans on using illegal addons if you used something that isn’t commonly used at least (judging from the 30 day period)
Only addons I’ve used are from addon manager. This did include cxanywhere at the time, but they lifted all those bans and I wasn’t included
I have a couple of guesses and had programs on my computer that could have potentially violated the terms of service and none of them actually interacted with the game but it’s whatever now
They won’t tell me (understandably so I guess) and I’m not banned anymore so I guess that’s all that matters to me
well I am only using my magi.
and I have the same build with your doppel, pel barb3 doppel, so I am crying vs plate mobs, due to helm chopper the only strike source. I might delete this and remake hl2 barb2 doppel2, but waiting till imc “merge”, if they bring back 0cd skyliner.
well deeds wont affect your magic defence anyway, my only way to stack deeds is with magic mobs, because I mostly dodge physical attacks
There’s a mushroom (I think, or some other food) you can eat that inflicts damage over time on you and supposedly you can use it for deeds of valor stacking.
yeah lapasape mushroom
its expensive in fedi though, 2k each -.-
