Guys.. warrior lose to cyro/psychokino

Class and Rank Swordsman

You can start by learning the cd of the enemy’s skill, and bait them out. Make use of the partial status immunity you gain through dashing or pouncing to get through telekinesis.

And the most important is, make use of the mobility by your dashing and strike them only when they are least suspected. Don’t be afraid of dragging out battle. Make it into the mind game where you are the Hunter and the mage is a prey, and tire them out.

Chances you will still lose against kino (lets face it, kino is your natural counter), but most kino except the ranker has sht skill and allow you to get close through baiting maneuver.

Fighting against archer is simple once your blocking gets to a certain skill level. You are natural counter to cleric’s immunity because you are the only class with skillset to pierce them.

One thing about swordsman though, you are not a dps. You are not a solo kirito class unless you are catagoon. Rely on your teammate to kill your enemy, and focus on disabling your enemy instead.

On a duel, you can use dispellers. I’ve seen many Catas win with that. But on TBL, you’re screwed.

#23

what’s a dispellers tho

#24

my experience against psycho/cryo in TBL.

cataphract can kill them, but it is not what you imagine.
basically, cataphract use his/her own cleric as bait, then while wiz use their CD, you charge in and cyclone/rush+restrain lock them to death.

if u r a nice cataphract, u go in first. Straight at the psycho, then make immediate turn 90 degree away from the psycho. Chances are the psycho will respond by using magnetic force, subzero shield, or ice tree, that way u wasted one of his CD and escape while giving ur team a little advantage. Come back later when he is distracted and pwn him.

Now if their team have ausrine + r7f (revenge 7 fold) + psycho/cryo… bend over and enjoy the spanking.

thanks for the tip :smiley:

#26

yes, thanks for the tip
TBL is actually pretty hard for my reasoning, since their are tons of way you can die and someway you can kill the enemy without noticing. Well I guess that what makes the game fun :3

#27

When your enemy has such a imba composition, you will probably lose as most class unless their skill is really bad anyway.

#28

My squire beat a lot of cryo/kino with these lol

But obviously it doesnt work on TBL

#29

Wizards have plenty of options for killing, it all depends on what path they took; could be Pets/ Minions, could be large AoE, could be single target shots. It’s this way because nothing really blocks magic.

Archers, again depending on the path, have a plethora of skills that’ll do ALL the damage. Yes, arrows and their skills can be blocked, this is the only saving grace you have.

Going pure CON is not an option, you’ll be lacking STR and DEX both of which you’ll need. DEX is about the best you can go against Archer both offensively and defensively, most Archers have high DEX so you’ll need a high enough DEX to hit and evade the ones that have lower DEX than you.
They STILL have the advantage, though, because of their range and higher DPS.

#30

True, outside of tbl you can probably defeat alot of non Warlock wizard by using those.

#31

ohwww thanks for the tip,
so I guess going 1/2/2 str/con/dex is viable i guess

#32

awww, that would be kept in mind but i won’t use it pretty often thats for sure TT

#33

TL;DR Hahaman dies first 90% of the time or the last 10% is they leave you for the last kill since you aint a threat

#34

I’m no expert, but I’d say that’s an okay build composition, though with the buff to STR you’ll probably want to go with more of that.

#35

dude… speak english - -

Translation:

Swordsmans are, more often then not, either the first ones to be KOed or the last to be KOed because they’re seen as insignificant.
