I’m 4 months away from the game, and i plan to play a character from 0 with a friend of mine. I’ll play Cleric and he’s trying to decide his class. He likes Swordsman, but SM were trash back then, and he wants a OP class, that deal a lot of damage. He likes Murmillo, Fencer and Doppel.
So, any of that is good? Swordsmans are still trash, or at least, inferior in damage dealing If comparing with other classes? What is the most OP class right now?
Fencer Doppel and Dragoon are all in the top tier dps charts as far as pve goes.
Fencers are by far one of the strongest classes in the game, however really expensive and not as straight foward as dopppel or dragoon.
Dragoons have high consistent damage as long as you pair it with the correct class(serpentine buffs 100% of melee damage dealt(no missile/gun))
Doppel is high risk high reward as you must likely will live with 0 DEF per life but with 150% more physical attack.
murmillo is… ok, only relevant when people do the shinobi + rodelero shenanigans, aside from that isnt that bad but is more defensive/cc oriented than actually dps.
several older classes are also buffed like highlander, cataphract and barbarian has several buffs incoming.
Look more into gem update. Gem now makes Sw damage more relevant and def/mdef more survivability now along with def/mdef update.
That’s what I think after coming back.
Very interesting, i read all the patches notes. But i wanted more practical example like ; in a party doing some endgame content, having one class from each branch, If the SM class have equipment equal to their teammates and knows how to play effectively, using the right skills in the right time, he stands a chance being the MVP? His buffs are enough to put him in equal foot with the others?
Swordie isn’t bad anymore, as long you know how to build it yeah he can be the mvp (Damage dealer)
-Dragoon usualy go with Hop3 (Spear trow is really good now 0sec cd 3hit good damage spam skill *For PvE)
-Dopple, I know less about it but I see quite alot of player go for barbarian 3 with it. Their damage buff also make them really easy to kill, with setup they can be one of the best dps and are often use in EarthTower now (At least from what I hear.)
-Fencer, same I don’t know much about it and I haven’t hear much since they nerf their stance also the weapon is … kind of a problem right now because it REALLY hard to get something close to other player because there no Rapier in dung 290. (Their are quite good for WB don’t know if it still the case)
I’m not a swordie player, it only based on my knowledge from what I hear/saw from other player
Thanks momory. But what about Murmillo? It’s the class he’s most interested. I know that you have to spend millions for attributes, but it is worth it? He has a good damage compared to the rest?
Murmillo isn’t that bad the damage is good (Still far from the other) but from what I saw there quite a cd after the main damage rotation.
Also don’t expect the same damage because murmillo is a more defensif class compare to other.
Probably need shinobi with it too to do decent damage.
murm damage is kinda meh if you dont have rodelero. Shinobi is optional all you need is rodelero. If you build a non rodelero murmillo then remember how sht dragoon 1 was? It is the same as murmillo without rodelero/ shinobi. kakaka
Also ready around 20m for attributes.
My murm build is without rodelero and I fu*king love him.
Swordy is good especially fencer dopple and goon.
Mages are the bad class now.
Got it, that’s good to know. So, after a lot of conversation and thinking, my friend is between this classes ; Wugushi, Inquisitor, Fencer and Murmillo.
What he wants to know about Murmillo it’s about his Tankness. After that defense update, being a tank is more worth it now? And Murmillo, choosing Peltasta and Rodelero before him, it’s the BEST tank of the game or like, a Wizz Full CON can tank the same or even better?
About Wugushi, what’s his current situation? He can deal a lot of damage, and in AOE, exactly how i remember? And what classes he synergizes with?
Bump, level up, Phoenix Down
if you want the best chose cleric , that class is the best of everything
Murm is tanky enough with just its Helm Buff (Cassis Crista) and i for one believe its the best tank even if you dont have pelt/rod before getting it but pelt/rod will make it better
wugushi is ok imho. its a no brainer pve dps. its not that far up in terms of damage but the poison dot is really helpful and it spreads as well. Wugushi synergizes with most build that has aoe or any skill that deals continuous damage
