Woah, after linker’s previous nerf that’s simply a huge hit to the core of most wizard “useful” pve builds (which are the farmer ones imo).
i do not consider it a “huge” hit, Thauma is very cheap right now
chrono is also a valid alternative to Thaumaturge, Switching to staves is also an option as they have more raw power and +1 AAR.
Sorcerer is still huge and works well with enchanter
For thaum builds, most meta is enchanter2. Then Featherfoot3, and lastly shadowmancer(though shadowmancer is most popular for PvP). Enchanter2 and shadowmancer fit on all builds. Featherfoot fits best with Linker.
@yurichalps Yes, the linker + thauma combo is very popular.
Expecting buffs to PvE pyro, kino, perhaps alchemist(?).
Maybe sorc will get minor changes too even though summons were buffed recently. Sorc1 is very popular as a filler due to the sustained damage it provides. There was even a discussion about elementalist3 warlock3 vs warlock2+sorc1. A player said ‘just pick sorc1 with marnox card on any build and your damage will increase a lot. High enchant on weapon will take care of low INT problems, so build SPR’.
Vid of elementalist warlock2 sorc1 testing damage (high gear): here
Lancer2 at PvP TBL by Rangee (top #10 pvp player) video click here
@Su-Kral Yes, sorc + enchanter is great too!
It is easy to get high dual stat and even triple stat with new gear options.
DEX(atk speed) + SPR(summon dps) build is best for sorc enchanters.
Example of 500+ SPR and 600+ DEX set-up for sorcerer enchanter:
hey greyhiem, ty for the vids!
question: in this “dual stat” build, do you know how he spent stat points? i mean, lets say 360 points 50/50 in dex/spr or something…
im reeeeally interested on this enchanter build, i was trying to figure out a setup. thinking about cryo 3 chrono 2 sorc 1 enchanter atm, just for move+attack speed buffs. I have a Zaura card, here in silute Marnox card is soooooooooo rare…
sry my english, im from brasil btw
thanks again!
Looks like they are using a form of warmode to remove effects?
On the KR server, user had tested the effect of dex on wizard attack speed (lightning hands). Basically, test result: 250~300 dex = +1 attack per second (so 2 attacks per second). Dex and attack speed is a bracket system.
Taiwan ToS user test with dex and attack speed, it might not be similar for different weapons (some weapons naturally have a faster animation):
This will give you an indication of the bracket system and the effect of dex on atk speed.
HPS = hits per second. Right mouse button-> view in new tab if you cannot see it properly.
Some enchanter2-sorcerers went full dex.
On iToS, you likely have some connection problems, so it is not smart to go full Dex. If you feel like your connection is bad, you should go low~medium dex and high spr. Try to type //ping in chat to view your ping.
Ping examples: 0.1 ping = 0.1s delay, this is bad. Go low dex.
If ping shows 0.03 , this is great! A 33ms delay is good. Go high dex.
The amount of dex will depend on your connection, I recommend you to test at the highlander master Room vs dummies and try different amount of DEX/SPR mix, and then use the stat reset potion to get your optimal amount of dex on your character. If your ping is bad, I would not recommend 90+ DEX.
During leveling, you should take SPR first because you will turn into sorcerer before you get enchanter2. Dex is only useful when you are already enchanter2 with Lightning Hands.
Some more popular Card ideas for you
AoE Farm, Good normal-attack AoE attacks:
-Gorkas. Largest Hitbox size, single hit (not available on steam server yet)
-Marnox. Strong double hit, large size (expensive card from Worldboss)
-Netherbovine. Fast melee AoE headbutt.
-Templeshooter, double arrows pierce through mobs, also stronger with necro decay.
Bossing Normal attack:
-Froster Lord. Magic attack, deals ~3 hits per attack on big targets (not available on steam server yet)
-Necroventer. Fast attack and Strike damage for Lethargy attribute. Cheap card from dungeon. Double hit on big targets.
Riding Cards, strong riding skills:
-Marnox, big hitbox multihits, cooldown quite high.
-Froster Lord, big hitbox multihits, medium cooldowns.
-Templeshooter, CD quite high.
-Netherbovine, shout AoE is also strike type.
-(…)
If you love Lightning caster + summoner wizard, sorc + enchanter is perfect for you.
@Remiri It might be, I am not sure. There are some addons on the KR forum which I have not seen on the Steam Server addon manager. I did not pay a lot of attention to addon posts.
Ok so if I don’t have sorc in my build, i should go full int? I have about 0.1 ping to the server. And whats the best build for enchanter c2? Cryo 3 Chrno 3 Enchanter c2 or something with thauma and linker?
Wow, thanks for the reply mate!
So, i dont think i have conenction issues. I main SR, wich is full dex (~450 atm), and its very nice. My ping is around 0,050-0,080.
just asked about stats cuz we have that reset event on itos, so i wont need to level up actually. I was wondering how they invest points because of the minimun difference on spr/dex (like 500 dex 600 spr, close stats). thinking about like “oh we have ~360 points, so guess im going 180/180 and get some hybrid gear” etc.
last question, about the build… in your opinion, do you think sorc 3 is a must? im considering quicken from chrono 1, or this skill lv 5 doesn’t bring too much to the table?
im considering just buy quicken scrolls, like the enchant fire i’ll buy too.
now my enchanter is linker 2 pyro 1 thauma 3, its good actually but joint penalty hit count is making me cry =/ haha
again, thank you very much for the reply, i really apreciated!
@Pururin Oh, this ping is unfortunate. You should go low dex and High INT. SPR is only for thauma and sorcerer (and necromancer) builds.
Cryo3 Chrono3 Enchanter2 is ok! Popular support with chrono. Low Dex or 0 dex, high INT. Your own quicken will already increase your attack speed.
Linker1/2-Thauma3-enchanter2 is good too. Better damage boosting support and cheaper option. Swell buffs increase your damage a lot. If you pick thauma3, you can also go SPR. Low DEX (maybe around 61?), high INT or high SPR.
I cannot give you a very accurate dex recommendation because I do not have a lot of experience with different //ping and Dex testing.
This is good! You have a good connection. You can go medium~high dex, maybe try 150 dex? The user in the video went Full Dex and is using SPR&Dex equipment. 180/180 split is also fine, it will depend on your preference. Usually parties have chronomancer quicken buffer and also priest monstrance (increase dex by 30% and then +10 dex). Hope this helps.
No, sorc3 is not a must. Sorc1 = never use riding, rely on strong auto-attack summons. Sorc2 will give riding, and sorc3 is just ‘a little bit more summon damage’.
If you pick chrono1, you will have a free quicken. Of course scroll is also possible. Please remember chrono3 support is very popular, and they will likely have a higher level quicken. If you don’t pick chrono1, you could pick linker2. Pyro2-thauma3-sorc1-enchanter2 is also an option if you are willing to drop linker and you will not have Sorc Riding.
thank you very much! helped me a lot!
i guess im going 150-200 dex / rest spr, so i’ll have decent attack speed and summon damage. tomorrow im gonna try sorc 3, i have some decent cards for riding (zaura, nether, temple etc).
thank you again dude!
i have both pyro2 thauma3 sorc1 ench2 and cryoo3 chrono3 ench2 and a LITTLE better I like thauma-sorc one
so for zealot, if i want to max out Fanatic Illusion damage, what other classes should I pick? krivis and paladin? in my opinion monk is not good with this tipe of build, and btw, fanatic Illusion scales with physical right?
A disadvantage of sorc1 is no Morph. With morph it is possible to have 1 card 10 star and change it into other cards. Sorc1 must level multiple cards to 10 stars if you plan to switch cards a lot. Personally I love thauma3 too.
@Pururin Krivis3 melstis extends Fanatic Illusion (double duration) and also fanaticism. Fanatic Illusion is a Physical + Lightning skills, strong vs ice mobs. You must pick classes you will enjoy.
Can you guys suggest me the mergen 2 build you find the least disapointing?
I was thinking something like A2 - QS3 - x x - Mergen 2 so I’d at least have some sort of useful filler while waiting for mergen’s hugeass cds to be over.
Sap2 for broom Trap
Wugu2 for better single target and throw gu pot
Rogue2 for better single target damage, more crit chance and capture
Dump an Archer circle and go Fletcher 3 for World bosses
(Just ideas)
Arch2 Sapper2 fletcher3 mergen2 is still decent.
I’m going with this build:
https://tos.neet.tv/skill-planner#21333444h.152535.3f4f657585.1f3f456575.14253541
I can’t decide on what would be good to take for rank 9 though. Is Shadowmancer c1 worth taking at rank 9?
Your runecaster skillcasting will get interrupted. For wizards, when in doubt, pick sorc1 for sustained summon damage. Or linker1. You could also consider wiz2 surespell for runecaster.
I won’t be casting much RC skills. It’s just for Rune of Ice. I’m trying to theme the build around ice.
Sorcerer 1 might work, but I’d be INT. I’ve never tried full INT Sorcerer.
I like it a lot. Also Enchant earth works on Summons, quite nice. Waiting for Gorkas for large AoE to supplement enchanter2 lightning hands quick AoE.
