Is my right after launch build messed up? (2sw, 2hopelite so far)

Class and Rank Swordsman
#1


Thats my skills.
Stats is:
120/35/3/35/7

It is what i started after launch and i am not sure if it is messed up. I read around a bit, i could do 2sw/3hop/doppel/dragoon with it. If i go higher levels with it i read that some/most builds reset skills anyway at some point so,

To compare a bit i am leveling a sw/pelt/barb3/doppel3 (at barb2:D), generally i would like to go spear, i would love to ride a mount but i understand that it isnt the most efficient build right now and i don´t mind.

I watched some videos and i see good in both…is it true that the doppel3 barb is more of an aoe grinder and the dragoon more of single target? I really enjoy the swashbuckle, it makes questing/grinding more fun. I read that hl1 and sw2 are both good options…is it equal options?

I will most likely want a PD and a swordsman, i cannot decide which one i should pick. if you give me a very good reasoning i could do the afternoon grinding up to around 100again if both builds are messed up but i fear they are both okay and i simply cannot decide^^

Stats are giving me a hard time, is there a str buff inc/decided or just rumors? I would love being able to tank/offtank stuff but it feels awkward going full dex even though it is the route for tanking? Both my swordsman are moer or less str based so far, and i wouldnt mind leveling them up like that and resetting stats eventually if its really a lot better to go dex…

Thx in advance.

your class path is savable but the skill distributions are messed up, I believe you don’t need pomel beat and you need spear lounge for pierce bonus. As for stats, might as well go full DEX or high DEX with decent CON if you plan to PvP.

you can either go

(sw2 or sw1/pelt)hop3dop1goon2 <-- old hopgoon meta with peltasa variation
sw3hop3goon2 <— more restrain / pain barrier
sw2hop3cor1goon2 <— have iron hook to easy land dethrone in PvP

Thank you, in that case ill run some dungeon/mission here an there on it and see if i like the build enough to invest in a skill reset.

For the 2h sword build (i guess this is the best, cheapest way to aoe farm stuff), no plan on pvp ever, full str is good?

#4

Full str is never good now. Str is weak for r8.

#5

Yeah STR is more of a PvP stats now for the block penetration against people who go stacking full con. Unless STR and INT gets rebalanced in the future and I hope they do and give everyone free stat reset once per character. It’d be such a **** move to rework entire stats formula and expect people to purchase stat restats off their wallet.

A few questions though:

  1. Plate, leather or cloth? (leather seem to have many good stuff like vubbe fighter gauntlets and windrunner!)

  2. Red or yellow gems in spear for a high/full dex build…

Red gems give good max damage so even if your hits fail to crit, at least you still got decent damage. But for yellow gem. It is useless if it doesn’t crit.

  1. What gems in armor? Should I always go for more Pdef/Mdef over HP? Pdef and Mdef = more “effective HP”… right?

That character (sw2>hop2) is just in rank 4 you can still reroll (delete and make new) it, unless you have expensive untradable items or invested attributes already.

For your doppel, still go with DEX and use 2H swords not spears, because some doppel skills are weapon locked to 2H swords.

#7

To echo what others have said just reroll bud, it may seem atm to you as a new player that rank 4 was alot of work but its really only a few days at most. The 2 circles of Hoplite drastically shrinks the options you have to go, its just not worth it. Prior to lv220+ its just easier to reroll if you dont have the optimal build you want, saves you alot of time and money later on.

Alright. What is the build i want for a spear char?

PS: I play kr mmo reguarly, i dont mind grind i just wanted to hear that the build is not great anymore. ill buy another char slot and restart and keep that one though.

PSS: About the “pvp-thing”: If im reading around guides they say going dex is for pvp to hit. Now you say str is for pvp to go through block and that sounds totally sound too. But thats 2 opposing answers:D

#9

Don’t get it wrong there’s nothing wrong with your classes, it’s just that you may have spent skill points wrongly which entails you to reset skill, wherein rerolling is more practical choice.

Like what I have said on previous post,

sw2 or sw1/pelt)hop3dop1goon2 <-- old hopgoon meta with peltasa variation
sw3hop3goon2 <— more restrain / pain barrier
sw2hop3cor1goon2 <— have iron hook to easy land dethrone in PvP

little STR, little CON, rest DEX

Okay so old hopgoon but with peltesta is the new meta?:smiley:

I checked the skill reset thing with attributes and it was zornhau and zucken, skills that my build will not have anyway. If there is nothing like that in the build i might just reroll, but if there is i couldv leveled it up np i think or is any of the skill choices blocking leveling midgame?
