I heard that Fencer isn’t that great of a Tank in late game, because you can’t dodge magical attacks.
So i wanted to know if a Build like would be good in late game.
Sword1>Pel1>Bar1>Bar2>Bar3>Fencer1>Fencer2 and the invested stats would look like this (from ToSBase stas calculator) 100 str, 75 con, 55 spr, 40 dex
NO ONE can dodge magic attacks. Fencer is a great tank if you know how to play it. But with low DEX you won’t be able to dodge arrows and melee attacks as well. I wouldn’t recommend low DEX for Fencer in general and for tanking especially.
SPR is a waste of points for any Swordsman. You can get decent M.def from gear and 55 SPR won’t make a difference big enough to justify wasting so many points on it, you still won’t be able to tank a big crowd of mages no matter what. Just kill them one by one or a couple at a time. Focus them down first.
what’s with the 55 spr? for you to spam skills?
You can get a decent amount of spr from Venier. And if you are not getting Sissel bracelets or Gladiator Bands/Phadas anytime soon, a Kranto Bracelet can be handy for skill spamming, no sustain, but you get a big sp pool without spending spr and 20-30 seconds in bonfire would fill that up.
also you said tank fencer, low dex high str is the opposite of it
I’m guessing he thinks that m.def from 55 SPR will make it easier to tank magic attacks. But it won’t. Just a waste of points.
