Need Opinion for my Scout

Class and Rank
#1

Hello guys. .
So yesterday I made a group for farming and exploring and decided to divide the class and role for our little group.
I take Archer, my role is Recon, Surveillance and Assist . .
I’m planning to go Archer>Quarrel Shooter2x>Scout>Rogue3x>Appraiser
and my other option is Archer>Quarrel Shooter2x>Scout3x>Appraiser

I’m asking your opinion about this build. .
the advantages, drawbacks, and so on??
any beta tester here?
and my questions are, can Scout using crossbow and Pavise? can Scout using their Flu Flu or Flare Shot with crossbow??

thank you >_<

P.S. we still need a Squire, anyone who interested and dedicated to fully group-playing, can message me FB account

#2

Hmm, yes I think you can play Scout with a crossbow since it doesn’t look like they’re designed for a specific weapon.

#3

can it use pavise as well? the reason I go quarrel is its pavise deploy to protect my ally. .
if not, then I will just go for 3x Archer and then Scout T_T

archer,quarrel x2,scout,rogue x3
you can use most skills with bow and shield, including the ones you mentioned, but you can’t use the rogue backstab, becuse it requires Bow and Artefact, aside that it’s a prety good combo imo.

#5

hmm. . that backstab , I see. . is it worth to use? considering my main role here is assist, recon and debuff, like, FLu Flu, smoke bomb, flare shot, caltrops and stone shot. .

could we change to bow and artefact in the mid-game?

#6

if your intention is to support from a distance, i dont think it’s a good idea having a melee skill. so you should just probably ignore backstab and get some other skill.
i’m sure there’s a swap system for main-hand weapons, but i dont know about off-hand…probably yes.

#7

hmm. . too bad I can have backstab despite being Rogue. . but I guess I will maximize with Vendetta and Smokebomb. .

also, Camouflage or Cloaking? which one is better? or should I get both?

#8

camo grants some kind of protection, cloaking probably allows you to move faster than other hiding skills… so i dont know lol, it depends on you xD
in the site im reading it says that every rogue skill is melee, now i’m confused e_é i dont know if rogue is good for supporting… but i cant say until i test the game or i see someone using this setup. you should try this build out, it looks pretty good !

#9

wah really? which site?
yep I have to try this for sure. . I have good feeling with this build

#10

Based on the videos from tosbase, vendetta and smoke seem to be ranged. However, the attack style does say physical, but the only attack with an off-hand being required is backstab. However, all the videos show this stance anyway, so it’s hard to tell if they are “melee” in the sense that they require a melee off-hand. But either way, they seem to be ranged - the limit appears to be on what weapons are equipped (which also might not be the case).

#11

OH YEAH ! i do remember now, they said you can backstab with a bow…which is kinda wierd lol

#12

They mean one handed bows, which in ToS are (most likely) crossbows only. You must additionally have an off-hand weapon (artefact / artifact) equipped, which would typically be a dagger.

#13

@Sourpuss hmm, from what I watch in the youtube skills footage, the rogue perform sneak hit and feint with a crossbow, long ranged. . could be the only melee is when we do backstab??
Cloaking>BackStab>Burrow . . what a cunning way to live

#14

Yeah, both sneak hit and feint seem to be a buff and debuff, respectively. So far backstab is the only thing with crossbow + offhand being required.
