I LOLed. That’s how I build my chars.

I just noticed that it’s a swordsman-only equipment. Kinda bummed you got tempted to buy it though since it can easily be farmed. XD

Sorry, late share:

List of new items/recipes with monster/location [Before Hunting Grounds patch only]

UPDATE: See link below for Hunting Grounds drop info - Questions and answers regarding these seems to be all over the place so I decided that maybe we can crowdsource everything here.

I prefer posting it in cata tthread hehe. Oh yeah your right. I just saw one again for only 20k lol. Haha.It is ok though. I got the guantlets slashing ingre in just 10 kils. Hehe

xD not sure if i want lancer or dragoon now…

[Natzalger]

Why? What new discovery did you found out?please share.

All I know for me is I want lancer but my current build says dragoon2…so…

[ijbest]

looking at how much damage these other classes will be putting out
really makes ya wonder if you’ll be able to keep up lol

[Natzalger]

So swordsman still the underdog huh.

That is why I have a cutsy cutsy plaque doctor in the making. I will just play dress up in this game. That is plan B hahaha😁

[ijbest]

lmao xD
well if I can straight up resist Raise and Ice Wall, I’ll be more up for Lancer, but as of right now, looking more like a Dragoon2 thing.
Stun or bind some1 then Serpentine then Dragontooth/Dethrone… combo looks pretty sweet.

Maybe this will help with your decision:

Lancer - The cataphract v2

It appears you’ll need at least Hop2 (for Spear Lunge debuff) and Dopel1 (for DoV) to be a high-DPS dragoon2. Not having both, or just 1 of both, could make you a non-optimal Dragoon2 because the rank seems to be built around maximizing DPS (like how Fletchers are recommended to get a least 1 rank in Ranger for Steady Aim).

This means that for Cata3 builds, you won’t have the option to take either Hop2 or Dopel1. If you force Goon2, you’ll become half a dragoon compared to pure DPS goon2 builds, and will miss out on the CC/defensive/anti-magic arsenal Lancer brings.

I think I would agree with OP that Lancer is indeed the next version of cata3, whether you’re SwPelHop or Sw3. The class also still has 3 burst skills anyways so you’re not solely relying on cata skills to dish out numbers. Whatever you take at R7 is up to you, though I personally have decided that Goon1 is the most practical due to 2H-spear synergy from cata to dragoon to Lancer.

Lastly, if R10 is indeed the max rank, you’ll eventually get to fully maximize all 3 Lancer circles. I’m really liking this route: Sw3 Cata3 Goon1 Lancer3 - because there won’t be much power creep (new/different skills making lower rank skills obsolete/useless).

Not saying the PelHop route is bad though, but it’ll be tougher to keep and fully use low rank attack skills in the rotation especially on tight situations. Let’s hope they’ll allow Lancers to go 1H-spear and shield.

Dat Bokor3 PD sustain damage. XD

If things get worst and remain that way for months when I get Lancer, I might just roll one as well.

I love 5v5 TBL, but if every other class can just easily make you useless from the start of the round, it’s not fun. It’s just making people (your teammates) hate you and remember your name infamously. XD

[DieHardLancer]

He’s the meta guy. He’s good to have around so you know what most people think and do.

i’d rather win duels than be "special"
besides i enjoy this build, who gives af that its meta.

[ijbest]

Hope someone will post some Lancer gameplay videos.
Heard Lancer was bugged, but I’m not sure.
would make my decision easier seeing it in practice

[Natzalger]

I managed to buy it finally. haha. He/she lowered the price for 9.9m only. Have to sell 10 tokens just to buy it fast. You never know if someone might steal it from you hehe.

[kyokahn]

Wowwwwww that thing’s fully loaded. And still some potential left in case you need it for something. Congrats! Mine’s just a +7, working up the lvl6 gems at the moment, but I have time so it’s alright.

[Natzalger]

Yes. Tested it on tbl now with my sagewall. My survivalbility rate became from 50% to 90%. Hehe. I have 33k hp if swash on . But my kill rate lowered though but not much. I just lost 84 atk power and 32 crit rate from my +7 cata pike. But I can put a glad band instead of glass bracelet now to compensate that atk lost. So…all good.

[Natzalger]

Look what my new spear can do haha

[kyokahn]

Woooooooot nice! Now of you add the +101 mdef boots you’re gonna be the best bait ever for wizzies lol

Damage is still really, really good.

[Natzalger]

Yeah. But still that -65 pdef though. Need to balance my mdef and pdef ratio…but in that batlle. I managed to single kill a warlock and cleric…

I can tank those dark balls now…but not all balls lol.

[ijbest]

I’m trying to get those boots lol… duuuude how the hell do i farm the recipe lol
red gribas seem so rare and few.
