I’ve been thinking about making a shield build 'cause I like shields and Fencers can’t use it due to Epee Garde making it useless and their atribute requiring no shield.It kinda of pissed me and I’d like to try a more tank-cc based build which is able to solo and is doesn’t just damages in parties.I like the utility and fencer doesn’t have much besides sword 3 in my build.So,I’m pretty much rerolling and using the fencer as a shard slave.
With that,I thought about that build in the title.I like sword 3 thanks to its pain barrier and restrain while it also adds 2 skills for the shinobi’s clones,pommel beat and double slash,while Rodelero adds more damaging debuff and clonoable skills and murmillo is the non-clone depent heavy hitter.The stats would be 50-60 con and rest on dex.I would invest in green gems for better critical rate while using plate to increase my life and con.While chatting with my guildmates and facebook groups,a few doubts were raised and I wanted check them.Here are the questions.

1-Does murmillo’s helmet affect the clones?I’m picking sword 3 over peltasta 2 due to that and considering it a better utility choice over 1 less strike hit(3 pommel beats vs 4 pelta hits from umbo and rim) but some ppl said it affects.I want to confirm if it increases the damage of the clones or not.

2-Does Restrain stun overwrite murmillo and rodelero’s stun?

3-Any suggestion for the build?I’m planning to use this skill set: https://tos.neet.tv/skill-planner#1111aaadc.23335e6a7a85.11213f4151657a8a91.1125314355.1121334575

It’s a good path for Shieldnobi. You’ll lose out on a bit of DPS without Pelta but there are tons of goodies with Sw3 to help ease the pain. Also IMO it’s better to skip CON entirely for Shieldnobi. You’ll have access to so many equipment that boosts CON, Mdef, and HP that the extra CON becomes overkill, especially since without Pelta you are pure DPS through and through. Also don’t use green gems on weapons with that much dex. Yellows are best, then reds. Greens are almost always overkill.

  1. Clones can’t use helmet so no extra damage for them :cry:

  2. Don’t remember something like that happening. Either way not a big deal.

  3. Get lvl1 Thrust and lvl15 PB. Take points from Pommel Beat (bad skill anyway). Thrust attribute is super cheap to up and it gets decent with clones on leather targets. Everything else looks good.

  4. GLHF

edit: forgot to add that red gems should be used on shields as well instead of green gems.
