Shooting star’s base damage increased, damage type changed to strike damage. Now if you are rod c2/c3 you have slitherring (100% strike for 10 seconds) + high kick (100% strike for ? Seconds), shooting star hits 5 times ( +50% on plates) it will hit like a truck with 2 overheats.
Will we see rodelero c3 builds with this buffs ? What do you guys think ?

Slithering 10s mean the move action you can hold for 10s
not continuously strike damage for 10s
10s move action will evade any magic damage.

i bet loads of those annoying full con wizards are in plater armour too.
nope, you miss the point.
when you use slith to an enemy, it applies debuff that makes you vulnerable for strike damage. receiving increased damage up to 50 or 100%, not entirely sure about the increase.
The Strike Debuff attributes is:
After you done doing the Slithering (when you release the Slithering hotkey button or after 10 seconds of Slithering) you will do an attack.
Enemies that hit by the attack will get debuff : 10s vulnerable to Strike Attack (deals 100% damage from strike attack)
Exactly, also on C3 you get high kick wich is another 100% strike buff.
With new shooting Star (slash > strike, more damage) how will this not be good ? Shooting star does 5 hits (640 damage on lvl 5) it is not as fast as hexen dropper or sept etoiles but it benefits from strike damage (+50% on plate).
The problem is there’s no good “strike type” multi hit skill.
While on pierce type damage (you can buff it using Hoplite’s Spear Lunge) : we have Stabbing and all Dragoon skill, even normal attack from Double Weapon Assault.
On Slash type damage (you can buff it using Barbarian’s Cleave {not implemented on iTos yet} ) : we have Cyclone, Pounching, Rush.
Shooting Star was changed in KTOS to strike type damage, now we have a good strike skill, also I suspect murmilo will be strike based.
this build is still viable but hard to lvling
sword man c3 > rodel c3 > corsair
very good to pvp because tons of cc
?? Rod3 is rank 6, you can still get a rank 7 class.
Can someone with real PvP experience comment on Rodelero? No theory pls.
Bro we can’t jump off theory for now, those buffs are only in KTOS and we don’t know when they will come, right now rodelero only offers slitherring and some garbage cc that won’t work in organized pvp.
IMO in the future rod c3 > corsair will be one of the best builds for battleleague and catacombs blade (492 or something damage on plate) + elemental shield will make it killer outside of the arena as well, also if you get peltasta you will be able to level this build without much trouble.
