So looking at guides people say for Swordie you need Swash buckling. So far im Sword> highlander> Barb 2 and was going to go Cor>Fencer>Shinobi but i hear to get groups im going to need provoke to tank end game. So should i forget Corsair and go peltasta or can i survive without voke?
TLDR Sword>High>Barb2>cor or Sword>high>barb c2>peltasta for endgame if going Fencer
Or re-roll to sword>peltasta>barb c2>cor
I don’t know which is the best.
I don’t play Swordman but I wonder why people pick Highlander over Peltasta at rank 2?
Yeah… i dont feel like starting a character from scratch… and highlander cartar stroke good early game + 2 hand crit
I don’t get why you’d need corsair 1 so I would just take peltasta.
The attribute is a trap, here’s how it works.
Assume you have it maxed (50%) and your crit attack is 150%, this’ll increase to 175%
Swashbuckling is way better than crit attack increased by a small number.
And cartor stroke won’t be used in your build at all.
So Highlander rank 2 is for early game skills which is really useful for 10 hours of playtime over most OP skill in the game of Peltasta. I see your point now. Thank you for your answer.
Yeah, hench why i prefaced the topic with i goofed. Also i wouldn’t call Swash buckling op…more just necessary, plus cartar stroke still does good damage even at level 100 but probably drops off around 180 or so.
As for Cor, it isnt super necessary. Really just wanted for costume, jolly roger and hook is good for pvp…but pvp in this game seems dumb…but its not that great unless you go C2 which i wasn’t really planning on doing.
Getting 25% bonus HP while SB is OP
Im swrod-high-pel3.
And cartar stroke is usefull. ^^
But ye, swash buckling is op good xD.
One reason you wont find lots of partys wanting an non pel swordy.
Pel 1 is minimum atm.
Yeah thats nice, but since im mostly dex build i dont plan on getting hit…though i do hear that lots of magic enemies past 180, im just gonna skip cor go Pel
If you’re below level 180 still.
Archers and Mages start to hurt past that.
And they hit you often, if you’re not a high evasion build.
(mages always xD)
My Archer has 740 evasion atm at level 226 and is doing fine against physical atks. But i eithe rneed to instant kill mage types or run the heck out of it, if im couragefully going solo questing.
Thats not how it works at all. The attribute raises the Critical Attack statistic by 50%. So with 300 strength and no crit attack items thats + 150 flat damage on a crit. If you stacked critical attack headgears ( can get 3x60 ), gotten things like gladiator bands and other equip providing that you can get to maybe 600-700 crit attack base which then will be multiplied by the attribute and added at the end of the damage calculation.
Dont make â– â– â– â– up if you dont know how it works.
Dude… Cartar stroke is garbage. Specially if you intend to do field bosses and/or pvp. Cartar stroke damage is also garbage. If you want damage as swordsman go hoplite. Barbarian damage is terrible late game and Corsair is a suport class. Corsair damage is a joke.
