Tiaa's Scout C3

stacking so much dex probably puts you over the crit cap? I thought the archer class could go over the crit cap but maybe that is only when they are buffed by other class buffs?

since you main a scout I was wondering about your mana issues or lack thereof for the endgame content.

no one gives a ■■■■ about your cards and bow, stop spamming it in every thread your in for the hell of it

A little bit off topic, but it’s begging to be asked - how is that possible?

The bulk of the work needed to craft the 315 orange bow is farming the 60x Yellow Caro Antenna. You’re nowhere on the top server kills for Yellow Caros, not to mention given how few have been killed it’s possible not one has dropped for anybody yet.

Yup, like DieHardLancer said. It is really, really, all down to a matter of preference. Lv5 split arrow will surly increase the damage of the bounced arrow by quite a considerable amount. As I mentioned earlier, split arrow scale better with patk (like from the weapon damage, skill damage, patk hats etc).

I decide to go for Lv1 split arrow because I prefer to be sp efficient during farming by using split arrow twice (17sp x 2 = 36sp), rather than using Lv5 split arrow once (37sp). Also, the bounced split arrow sometimes bug or won’t detect the mob beside it. Having a Lv1 split arrow allows me to use another split arrow without being penalize too much when this bug happens. Lastly, to me, it seems inefficient if I have to spend sp pots, weapon maintenance or buffs to allow me to farm 145 dungeon. These are kind of daily expenses and will reduce the overall silvers you can obtain from the dungeon. Though it is small, I believe it will all add up and reduce your silvers farmed per week (or per month).

Both have its own trade-off. For me, I prefer to be sp efficiency for 145 dungeon farming. Hence, I chose to go Lv1 split arrow.

Yes. I think I will be over crit cap with buffs. The crit formula is as follows:
Crit % = ( crit rate – mob crit resist ) x 42 / your level
This formula shows that even when vs same mob crit resist, 1 additional character level will require much more crit rate in order to maintain the same crit %.

As of 280, I can crit often without swift step. But currently at level 324, I am finding harder to crit without swift step. Another reason is during my gameplay, I feel my clearing (or farming) speed slows down if I don’t get the bounced arrow to crit. This is why I went high dex.

Nothing was edited. You said you were 80% to creating a 315 orange bow which is you excuse as to why you haven’t poured as much $ as @Tiaaa has into her bow. All the while you’ve only farmed 8/18 of the low quantity mat, and 0/54 of the rarer, high quantity mat.

That’s GREAT that you’re #1 on morning bird kills. I just wouldn’t go around lying and saying you already have 80% of your mats farmed. And then throwing a tantrum when you get called out on bullshit.

@Tiaaa Getting on topic, how come you landed on ranger1 for r7? And how has it been so far, any pros/cons compared to other options?

I went into rank 7 when 280 is the max level. I have to choose between ranger1, falconer1, sr1, or musk1.

Musk1: I am really not a believer of having two main weapons. This makes it much more expensive to upgrade (no transcend yet as of 280). Despite the sheer number of people saying scout c3 should go musk or cannon, I guess I just follow what I believe in. Bow specialization.

SR1: It is a good choice for farming as split arrow can be using while mounted. But it has no synergy with scout, and a waste of sr skills. As this is also my main build, I wont want it to be 100% purely for farming.

Falconer1: Circling into Multi shot is really good. There is some start up time for circling into any combo. From how I see, if I am with a team, it might be possible the mobs are already all dead before I can finish the combo (the start up time for circling and also charging time for multi shot). I also find the pet system at that time (when max level is 280) to be really buggy or unreliable. Hence, with all these reasons, I didn’t choose falconer. However, now with Mergen class, Homing Arrow and Arrow Sprinkle also benefit from circling. Falconer1 can be a good consideration.

Ranger1: This was my crazy bet when max level is 280. If Mergen isn’t release, I am planning to go rogue1 :dizzy_face: I am glad it worked out. I have always think that steady aim will scale very well and continue to be relevant in late game because of the % scaling it gives. I still really like my build. What I am doing now is to have vubbe fighter gauntlets and 2x gladiator bands, isn’t much, but it allows me to hit 2 mobs with homing arrow/ multishot without the circling start up time. Even if I have the option to class reset or reroll, I will still choose ranger1. Steady aim also benefit Mergen skills for burst damage. I will be making a video about crystal mine solo maybe in 2-3days after the current event dies down.

Actually the Falconer’s skills are even more buggy as before lolz…

But at least Circling is the least buggy one and can be worked around.

Also getting ranger is NOT bad if you already have another falconer in your party, especially if it’s C3 falconer. :P. Now you do 10%+ damage than other mergen when they use circling for you.

about solo crystal mine, can you survive when you accidentaly got in rain of big red laser from Stone Whale boss? This boss traumatize me.

Thanks,i didn’t know upgrading items to +10 also add to points.

Hmm, I think I can’t survive 1.5 to 3 seconds inside the red laser. Most of the time, I try to avoid the laser and not to use skills that prevent me from moving. Only after the boss attack animations finished, then I use all the skills in my arsenal.

You may want to check the Crystal Mine video I just uploaded. :relaxed:

This is the full clear version. There is another one, the farming version, which you can consider doing to avoid that Stone Whale boss. The main differences are waiting out for 5 minutes and skipping the last 3 bosses.

Mildly off-topic… How did you get so much silver, lol?

It’s just Scout 3 thing :stuck_out_tongue:

Before the boss debuff patch, I was very active in boss hunting. Boss hunting at that time was very profitable. Cards are also easy to level 10 too. I was able to level my split arrow attribute to level 100 before boss hunting become not so worthwhile.

Now, my main income is solely from 145 dungeon. One full run gives an average of 320k (I used the average silvers of 9 runs). With token, doing 145 three times a day gives an average income of 960k silvers. This is without considering the costs of repairs, and other costs like weapon maintenance, hp or sp pots, and buffs. The more of these daily expenses incurred, the less income I will get per day. Hence I tried not to incur any expenses that I do not need to. I have been farming 145 everyday. My income per week is around 960k x 7days = 6.72mil (not considering expenses), or approximately 6mil per week (if considering expenses and purchases i may make through the market etc). I have been doing 130 farming ever since the silvers rate was buff, and 145 farming when its silvers rate was buff at a later patch. It is really about doing a daily chore and saving up the income until I need to spend them.

Alternatively, if you have multiple characters, you can try 290 dungeon rush for 140k per rush (I used an average of 3 rushes), and saalus to sell blessed shards for 220k to 250k. One alt character (with token) will yield an income of 140k x 3 + 195k(after tax) x 2 = 810k per day for 1 character. But the only downside is you will be selling blessed shards instead of saving them for your main character.

Here are my stats, equips & skill build that many of you have been asking :relaxed:. Thank you for your patience, this video took longer than I expected, but its finally here.

The gear is beautiful, for people who question her DEX yes it is possible to hit that number b/c she is using all Ellanganos cards. The only thing that confuses me here is the massive, I mean massive amount of silver you invested into the bow, I am the first one to defend augfowle users, there was no reason to be gimp for a few months while we wait on Astra but holy bajesus. You can get the 2 practonium, the 15 atrilinoum, the 54 yellow caro antennas and the 18 undamaged mourningbird wings now in ITOS, we are only missing 1 step for the orange weapons. Either way very nice to see another player invest in their scout, idk why more people don’t play them outside of farming roles, such a versatile class.

Scout3 is <3. Been addicted to archers ever since I created one :slight_smile: (was a post-wiz swordie player here).

i thought u can retrieve like 80% of the shards if you don’t mess around with the potential, if so then its no big deal to invest now.
