Would like a pistol with a knife attached to either the barrel or the grip pls.
wouldnāt that cut your fingers?
Since Scout uses one-handed Swords, why not a Gunblade/Gunsword?
There are enough historical examples to make it reality

Apologize if there is any mistranslation, the image is quite blurry.
Fixed wording.
It would be a matter of off-hand and main-hand distinction. You remember how haka swords are held in the off-hand slot but gems still read it as a main-hand weapon. For historical basis, there are gun daggers too.
Iām really curious on what they will do to Chaplain.
I would think that is bad tho, i mean SPR giving critical rate. Classes such as say fencer would require not only STR, DEX and CON but also SPR pushes classes that uses Physical attacks into the āExpensive to even play properlyā category whereas classes such as the wizards* will have a clear advantage because of the one lesser stat needed.
Pushing further on this point, for swordies&archers having their stat modifiers split from 3 to 4 would weaken the two classes further with their form of gameplay. The stats would just simply be unbalanced.
& before anyone bother mentioning this issue for clerics, itās my opinion but āclericsā are āhealersā lorewise and considering classes such as monks-zealots-inquisitors are the outliers retaining some aspects of the main body, hence firmly putting clerics into their role of āhealerā rather than a class that can do everything.
should be critical rate (ģ¹ėŖ ķė°ģ)
it just says +250 attack (ź³µź²©ė „) per stack, maybe to both matk and patk since the armor features INT and STR?
My Feather Foot totally dead without Linker, remove Linker out of Wizards such a wrong step of Devā¦
Psychokino is a good way to group&CC enemies. You just need more AoE attack ratio (Staff and AoE attack ratio equip helps).
Or you just add Elementalist/Pyromancer/Cryomancer for AoE attacks and use FF mostly for protection (e.g. to protect from getting interrupted while casting with Levitation) and single-target damage.
I played Kino>FF and I didnāt miss Linker while leveling.
as people have said, FF can fill some other role without linker. It pairs very well with psycho and warlock as a DPS.
If you had a linker/FF/thaum farmer, then youāll have to try out Linker/FF/Corsair. You wonāt have the sustain, but youāll be able to get even more loot.
I love my FF but Iām going to be fine with replacing linker and thaum in the build. Love the sound of FF/Warlock/Psycho. So much synergy!
FF isnāt on Scout
probably meant LInker Thaum Corsair
Also on FF synergies: if Necro and FF remain mostly unchanged then Necro will actually provide so much debuff uptime using shoggoth decay, flesh hoop demoralize, corruption, necro bane etc etc. Not to mention the aggro pull the minions can do so you can just mob train and stab everything to death.
oh yeah, i meant Linker/Thaum/Corsair. Whoops.
And while it is a bit sad to see the classic FF farming build go, it does open up FF to be the āsustainā option in the wizard tree without feeling like a waste. I like FF a lot for its mechanics, but it always felt like I was doing something wrong if I wasnāt using it as a farming character. With that out of the way Iāll be free to combine it with my favorite wizards and save like 3 character slots!
That said, with Thaum/Linker out of the Wizard tree, I wonder if there will be other farming builds that pop up in Scout instead. Thaum/Link used to be a very versatile farming core in the wizard tree. It worked very well with Sage, Onmyoji, Enchanter and Shadowmancer to name a few options.
In the scout tree, other than the obvious Corsair you can still do the classic Thaum/Link/enchanter. Itās going to feel weird without Transpose though. But what else?
So this confirms that scout really is a thief-esque tree. Hereās to hoping that āfree stepā is the new running shot for scout AA builds.
Keep in mind scout is sword main hand.

About Scout stats : They are inded only physical stats for all classes in the tree : so only str/con/dex.
Based on that it may mean that most likely thaumaās buff will either be a % scaling either a flat scalling of stat. -
Featherfoot isnāt with linker and thauma yeah, we all know that. Doesnāt mean that FF will still NEED them to work. You are still thinking as FF as actual FF, not as the new FF they will most likely show.
-
Also since skills factors will be based on number of ennemies you hit etc. FF could be a really strong 1v1 type of magician if they let skills as they are right now. Is it bad? Nope not at all. It just means that either you go focus on a full 1v1 build with it. Either you mix it with an aoe class to be abble to have some good 1v1 spells and some aoe spells.
-
I see also a lot of people crying about the fact all clerics class have hybrid stats. So first for the purpose of hybrid builds and being able to mix all classes in the tree how you want, you canāt make somme class with no stats at all> cause the formula of average to calculate a stat would become too hideous.
Also once again, you donāt know how the classes are in the cleric tree now. All stats may be important. -
Lastly : Cleric bonus modifiers (HP/SP/HPregen/ā¦) is the class with the most different benefits. It may be the one with the stronger ones. Thatās why having hybrid modifiers for all classes, with an average that may feel weak compared to others may not be an issue. Cause the other modifier of the tree itself may counterpart it.
Also they can heal themselves for sustain so of course they canāt be THE TOP dps.
And still you donāt know SPELLS factor. ^^
Maybe ādps type classesā of cleric will have stronger factors than the other three to counterpart those low stats modifiers.
Here is the Class Tree Stats Modifiers for those who didnāt see it :
Any news/clue about the new āscoutā classes? Thats what iām mostly curious
The modifiers are complicated,though.
Swordsman and Scout seem to have the best modifiers among the Classes.
Itās strange that Swordsman has a high magic defense modifier,though.
I wouldāve set Swordsman with 300% physical and 200% magical defense and put Cleric at 200% physical 300% magical defense since Swordsmen are not adept to magic in training while Clerics learn magic spells and use them in mock battles during education.
Critical hit resistance might be good if monsters can crit, but if they canāt, itās a useless modifier outside of PVP; it wouldāve been better to add a Healing stat modifier instead if monsters canāt crit.
HP recovery and SP recovery modifiers seem useful and useless at the same time, because it certainly will only affect the substat, which is only influenced by base level, attributes and equipment now.
If it also affects recovery boni (e.g. potion recovery,card recovery,skill recovery) it could be quite useful,though.
The SP modifier is the most intriguing feature in my opinion, as SPR will no longer affect the SP amount, making it either hard or easy to manage SP.
I hope IMC made the right decision and averaged SP consumption equally among all Class Trees (so Clerics and Wizards no longer use more SP on average than Swordsman/Archer/Scout, but all Classes have the same basic SP consumption),
because only in that case the SP recovery and SP maximum modifiers would actually make a difference and let Swordsmen,Scouts and Archers run out of SP faster.
Just read through the posts in this thread from 8th to 11th of November and you will find a lot of information on Scout.
