Sorry for reviving this post but lately I’ve been wavering between builds and it’s driving me crazy.
Namely, I cannot decide if I should do the Pelt/Rode/Shin/Murm for dps or Pelt/Rode/Murm for tanking. At the moment I’m Pelt C1 and I need confirmation from you guys or I’ll go insane.
What I originally wanted to do:
Stats: Full STR
Pros:
+Burst from clones
+Ninja Walk attribute
+Increased Maximum Weight attribute
Cons:
-Shinobi quest (I did the Appraiser one for my SR and it was a pain in the azz, even tho I got lucky and finished it in just 5hrs, and if this one is as irritatig, then I dunno…)
-A bit squishier than Tank version
-Summoned clones can lead to your downfall as you share damage (or so I heard, needs confirmation)
What’s been bugging me for past few days (no idea if done right, need some help on this one):
Stats: STR 2:CON 1
Pros (compared to OMA version):
+More Pelt skills to be affected by Cassis Crista attribute
+Tankier, almost double the HP
Cons:
-Less dps
-No useful Shin attributes
I did a small calculation between stat builds to see how much base HP I’d get from Swashbuckling’s +25% HP attribute and this is the result:
OMA: base 27254 hp -> swash 34067 hp
Tank: base 46225 hp -> swash 57781 hp
With the Tank build I thought I could add Shin as rank 9, but it’s gonna be aeons till it arrives… And even when it does, probably Murm C2 will be better choice…
Please help, I can’t play my swordie comfortably before I solve this problem…
