Disclaimer: Personal opinion here

I didn’t take Cartar stroke to lv 15 as I can smash other skills rather than waiting for them to charge/ so I’m not sure if you’re willing to drop that to lower or not…ulitmately it’s your choice.

Crown is okay for bossing(With magic attacks). But due to lack AoE, you cannot use this on high density mobs unless there’s a linker. ATM I am using this skill less and less when hitting dopple.
Though you might want to keep them when there’s ktos patch crown + moulinet in future

Skyliner’s damage is really high when you have bleeding monster. so it worth it to take to 10. And believe me you’ll still use it even you have doppel.

Doppel C1 should take DoV and Cyclone only. DpE is optional but I don’t like it and don’t intend to use them. So you can save your skill point when you hit C2 to get at least more DoV and Cyclone

Edit: My server doesn’t have rank 8 yet so I can’t give you advice on that. ATM is I know that mordschalg is not good.
Redel is nice. It’s multi hit
Zucken is also multi hit and nice on lv 1. But questionable on higher lv(look at those MP consumption)
Zornhau is another vertical slash with shock debuff that last 5 sec. Pretty bad If I should say…

Well with painbarrier i can charge the 2 stokes i make doble crit dmg everytime i charge…

I guess ill drop crown jeje thy for the feed back

crown gives bonus damage to zucken due to shock debuff also increasing it prolongs the debuff so you can get in moulinet once its buffed so you can skip zornhau at dop3.
cartar stroke = strike damage its fine at lvl 3 since you can get attributes for it at lvl 3
i advise you to get at least barb 1 for the 50% damage increase debuff with cleave and a slight boost to crit rate
you need to get zuken and redel to at least lvl 6 for the multicut attribute however once you get the attribute you can reskill with a reskill potion and still bag those attributes and leave them at lvl 1 :slight_smile: anyway there are many builds out there im too lazy to find them for you haha
anyway GL :slight_smile:

Personally (I went the same way as you, highC3 and doppelC3), I kept crown at lv.1, so I still have the debuff and dmg increase for zucken, and it is really helpful against magic bosses.

Cartar stroke is lv.8, because strike type really something valuable in this path, you won’t have much, and it’ll be well worth it with the highlander new attributes coming.

I have skyliner at level 10, because I just love the damage, and crosscut 10 too, but this one is a matter of choice.

I also have moulinet 10, because with the other new attribute coming, it will maybe be worth it.

With doppel I took Cyclone 1 and DoV 1, and maxed Cyclone at first with only 1 point in DPE, it has been well worth it for me many times, and there is a fix coming that will apply the buff to your party, too.

crosscut 10 is not recommended
better leave it at 1, but skyliner 10 is highly recommended

I understand cross cut is for a pvp build its great vs range squishy enemies + cc

#8

if you want to pvp, step away from highlanders and doppels.
its a pve route

#9

Dont take vertical, put into crown or cross guard, skyliner must 10 because it s main skill of highlande

#10

Vertical slash got a buff long ago, it’s very strong now and at least 1 point is recommended.

#11

What are the perks of going high3 instead of barb3? Since highlander is mostly active skills wont it be outclassed by higher lvl skills later? Trying to understand here. Also crown shock works with zucken right so theres no need for zornhau at all?

#12

their skills despite being low-rank active has nice scaling, except moulinet but that will be adjusted later.

other than that, you have skull swing if no one else in your stack has armor break

#13

Okay, but then barbs have buffs and i saw ktos gonna make the cleave crit rate higher than it currently is. Lol. Choices choices.

#14

yeah, this is why I have both hl and barb doppels

I have 3 actually, but I’ll delete the pelt>barb 3 one, no HL passive is sad after the gem buffs

#15

@Lostac how many characters do you have man lol

#16

all free event tps directly go to character slots, lol

top most is fencer

That dedication to swordies. Hahaha i currently have 3 clerics 3 swords, wiz and arch 1 each. Gotta say, none of my chars are well geared and stuff but class advancement is what keeps me in this game.

#18

I use pelt>barb3 too now, while going to the doppel route, I find peltasta really useful, it’s nice to be able to switch between offensive and defensive mode, but I kinda miss the highlander 50% crit attack now… Though choice

#19

I’ll still delete it though, my 206 Rank 6 HL-Barb3 Doppel outdpses my 223 Rank 7 Pelt-Barb3 Doppel

might be a game changer if swash didn’t require weapon swapping for +25% hp

#20

I understand your point, even if I like the C block and the huge defense buff it can give. But if I was playing alone I’d probably pick highlander instead of pelt, too. The yellow gem buff is so good with the new attribute…

The “problem” for me is that I’m always playing with someone, and this someone is playing a wizard, when we’re only the 2 of us she gets killed almost in 10 sec if I’m not here to taunt, not much choice…
