Tiaa's Scout C3

Thank you for responding!
My original concept is x8 Glass mole. But when hit level 317 (now 320), I noticed I cannot have fully critical hit from both bosses in Crystal mine (1st stage).
That make me worry, I just wonder if 80 dex from ella is better than 80% from glass mole (in case I have to fight to high-crit-resist boss).
Maybe 80 DEX would make me comfortable though Glass mole is better for bossing. After all, I’m scout3-falco-mergen O_O, I dont think WB-slayer is my main role (just situational).
Is there any infomation about highest bosses/mobs’ crit resist? If not, do you think your crit rate is enough or higher-than-enough (ensure to have fully critical hit)

My new team setup have dps-check on dungeon 315: we cannot finish the 1st boss on time (I’m the only one have decent-gear, the other - eleWL - is good). That’s why I’m leaning toward glassmole.
So what do you think?

[Off-topic] I agree with you

I have an chance to dps-check on 1F with those ridiculous hogma’s block.
I feel that I still do fine with my falcon, even with low block pen.

If you are not aiming for boss killing build, I highly recommend ella cards. Glass mole might still be good if you want to use burst to clear mobs like in ET, but I think ella cards will do just fine too. Additionally, if your scout3 is meant for farming, I will recommend ella cards too. The reason is that when my split arrow didn’t crit, I find my clearing speed slows down. Though I haven’t really test something like full str scout3 vs full dex scout3 clearing speed, but at least, thats how important I feel about the need to ensure both bounced arrows crit.

For crystal mine, I am also not able to crit 100%even with a high dex build (you can check my videos). I used to be able to crit 100% when max level is 280, but now it seems harder and harder to get same crit percentage. I don’t have information on mob crit resist, but it always changes from mob to mob, and boss to boss. Hence, it is quite impossible to optimized damage output between str:dex while the main factor, crit resist, always varies. For me, I use a benchmark by putting enough dex or crit rate till my split arrow can crit 100% with swift step in 145 dungeon.

As for 315 dungeon, at the area which you need to kill the boss within time limit, it really require at least a boss killer build. My scout3-mergen loses out in boss dps ranking to a full-con elewar build at the area. My team has 2 elewar (1 high int, 1 full con), linker-chrono-enchanter, and priest3-pd2. There is some trick to hold the boss down at 1 location. Using Frost cloud, or multi-shot to hit the boss before it moves or jumps, will make it go back to its original position after it jumps. (This is like how dulla always go back the same place after dashing.) Hence, for my team at least, we rotate between frost cloud and multishot to make the boss stay at 1 location and use all our skills. We always just barely make it with 5secs to 30 secs left depending how successful we prevent the boss from moving or knockback on us. You can try this and see if it works for your team. Otherwise, I really think a boss killer build is necessary.

Woahh I need to try to use your trick, sounds amazing. :open_mouth:

Hey Tiaaa, Do you consider Lolopanther leather set?

Did the same thing with my swordie in crystal mine, good thing all boss AI is stupid xD

except when you fight stonewhale and salamander simultaniously

I think lolo leather gloves and boots are a good way to boost crit rate (2-set bonus). For top and pants, you may want to consider plate instead which offers more physical defense (not necessarily lolo plate). I did considered about the leather set and its bonuses, but as I am already doing 100% crit on 145 dungeon, hence I don’t feel that I need it.

Hahas. Nowadays, I will sit and wait for the 5mins (watch some video or youtube) and not risking it as my main objective is to farm ores. Though, if you can kill the boss fast enough, there are extra mobs which spawn at the boss area which also drop ores.

I think when I face with 2 boss with range or magic attack, it is quite hard for me too. When I was level 280 and can’t kill bosses fast enough, I tend to drag one of the boss out to the previous area so that when the next boss spawn, I won’t have to face two of them @_@

Do your weapon also leave it at +5 to avoid potential drop?

+0 Aufgowle Bow
520 - 781 Atttack
+10 Aufgowle Bow
+165 on both Min and Max attack

With Stage 5 transcendence (Transcend it initially in +10 anvil enhancement)
1712.5 - 2365

In the video
1714 - 2366

Pretty close

yea, the thing is that with that stage 5 transcendence, everyone was like omg, so high, and others going, yea you can’t do this unless you invest billions of silver blahblah.

after transcending to just stage 3 on my CROSSBOW, I’m higher than her, realized that the 1700-2370atk power isn’t even that much, cause all her other equips are basic. And most people would be bale to get to her power just by buying some cheap headgear with 100atk power

what xbow are you referring to? please give us screencap.
Btw, i tried using 2 lv6 red gem at my off hand which add 290 Patk, but there is only 500 DPS increase when critting

misread simpulse’s thought the person was talking just pure atk power, not the weapon.

I just have a stage3 silver hawk, and red gems in shield, and I’m 2685-2878 compared to her 2400-3000, since I have some atk power headgear. Was just saying yes, her stage 5 bow is nice, but its not that huge an investment to get to >2000 as some of the ones here are saying in the beginning. Cause when the topic started I was like wow, that looks really high, when I still had my 170 weapon, but then I started gearing up and swapping out to better equipment and managed to reach it as well with minimal trans.

but this thread is about scout 3 which means split arrow. Split arrow using 2800 Patk and 3000 Patk has around 3000 dmg difference

ikr , and +100% damage vs fly , bow is the best choice for split arrow

Is it worth to get Archer to C3 or should i just get Ranger C1 instead?

what job do you plan at rank 8?
A3 shines with falconer every 30 second,if your lv 15multishot doesnt get interrupted.
Ranger 1 barrage is really strong at early lvl, steady aim is futureproof till rank 10

I’m undecided on what to take actually… One part of me likes Hackapelle for mounting and another part of me likes to be Mergen for the AOE. What would be good for those R8 classes?

hakkapele’s benefit right now is you can use xbow with 2 socket and sword filled with 3 high lv yellow gems that will boost your offensive skill significantly. Also you can travel fast because of mounting

Mergen+falconer is a clear screen skill
Mergen+scout3+rogue can execute capture+double flareshot lv 15+double arrow sprinkler lv 5

Falconer + Mergen OP even at R8 content? Maybe for example the 290 Dungeon?

Also, if I have a Falconer, should I be better off using Sissel rather than Gladiator band?

sissel is better than gladiator band. if you mean falcon+mergen OP in r8 map is one hit kill then no, at least not yet
