which is more beneficial in terms of dpsing sword 3 rodel 3 shino murm Or sword 1 pelt 2 rodel 3 shino murm? need opinions
My opinion:
Sw3 Rodel3 Shino Murm -> Very offensive good dps but lacks peltasta so no Swash Buckling, which is a big problem if you’re building a tanker. This is basically a “pure dps” build, so you need to compare it with Doppel 3 and other very dps oriented builds. Has very high burst dps and decent sustained dps.
Sw3 Pelt3 Shino Murm -> Good Swash Buckling, optional Guardian, awesome High Guard. This is definetely a very solid tanking build. High Guard gives a lot of block which is a huge difference when pulling mobs with Swash lvl 10 or 15. Dps is certainly way worse because clones don’t copy Butterfly but copy Shooting Star. High Kick also makes a big difference in dps. Has decent burst dps and decent sustained dps.
Sw1 Pelt3 Rode3 Murm -> The most expensive build. This is because getting max Murm attributes should be a top priority to you in this build. Lack of Shinobi makes it really hard to deal considerable AoE damage. You may be able to pull stuff with Swash Buckling, but won’t be able to kill big mob at considerable speed without clones. This build has more sustained dps than the shinobi counterpart, but not so amazing burst dps. It’s a good build if you enjoy killing rather small groups of mobs (3~5) constantly. Has decent burst dps and very high sustained dps.
Sw1 Pelt3 Rode3 Shino -> Not the most optimal build imo. This is because you’re focusing too much on clones and not having Murm attributes from Sw3 Pelt3 Shino Murm counterpart build makes your constant dps overall very weak. This is a good build however if you are cheap to buy Murm attributes and really enjoy high burst damage. Has crazy high burst dps and bad sustained dps.
Sw1 Pelt2 Rodel3 Shino Murm -> Not the most optimal build either. This is because you’re not getting Butterfly, Umbro Thrust and max High Guard/Guardian and also losing on Double Slash, Gung Ho and Pain Barrier from Sw3. If you want to tank, I’d say go Sw3 Pelt3 Shino Murm, if you want to dps, go Sw3 Rode3 Shino Murm. This build is between the two worlds and doesn’t really excel at neither.
thank you sir for ur awesome reply
well i’m just focusing on dpsing is double slash that good tho?
Double Slash is very strong with clones now and the attribute is quite cheap to level. It also crits often thanks to the other attribute.
is that soooo thank you for clarifying it sir :)) really appreciate the replies 
I heard there’s a change to slithering, but what is it? I didnt notice anything different in our server right now.
read that they nerfed it
Slithering attribute was changed. The debuff won’t increase striking damage anymore. It will decrease enemy movement and evasion.
However we still have the old version of slithering’s attribute.
thanks for your reply.
