Useless Mergen - Useless DPS class

Kinda funny, 'cuz on R9, Mergen is going to get exactly THAT. :smiley:

Mergen is just ranger c4 and if you didn’t notice…Ranger aoe is bad

mergen is super great with circling, without it… not so much

The armor only has 1-2 sockets(1 standard socket and 1 additional if appraised and lucky) per piece,though.
The 4 sockets theory was either just a rumor or got changed afterwards.

You still out damage a Sadhu though right?

My love for archers and 2 hand bow is so strong that I took my mergen even in 20F alas no one wants me in solmi area… I joined he God Class and boy I am amazed on how much difference in game play and player treatment I got.

Anyone tried with +7 aar? I assumed from the video that the mergen was using vubbe,2x phada, +3 aar hair acc or squire refreshment table.

It is about time people post solmiki full run 4 5 clerics.

Maybe Mergen is outshined by Pyro and SR for AoE in ET runs, but Mergen has some great DD skills. Im SR3 (+5 trans4 Silver Hawk) and I sure have problems out-DPsing Mergens at Boss-Fights. So Mergen istn’t that bad at all, and I’m very happy if I have one in my group who uses Circling for us both!

Thats what im saying…Mergen is awesome if you combine it with ST class, like Fletcher. That burst is so absurd good (cant compete with CataGoon/Fencer, but you are ranged… )
I really like my A2/R1/Sc1/Fletcher3/ Mergen

Im currently leveling a A2 Sap2 Fletcher3/Mergen, will see how that one shines later on. Maybe Sap2 will compensate for the lack of AoE Fletcher3/Mergen has.

Was outdamaged by a Mergen yesterday, on my Sadhu Kabbalist .
That was the first Mergen to outdamage me in Siaulai,though, usually I outdamage every Mergen that comes along with my awesome Kabbalist that has no INT or additional sources of matk aside of my 5x5* red gem Five Hammer and 92 matk from 1 costume headgear, though all my damage comes from matk-based skills xD

We’d see how good Mergen is if someone was willing to go full CON or full SPR Mergen and run him in Siaulai against my DEX/CON Kabbalist to make it a fair match, though :frowning:

Tenku is on Orsha and I have two stat reset potions from my founders if he wants to take you up on that offer. I have to see if they are tradeable though because you know IMC and their superb management.

Only the medal recycle ones are tradeable…I think

Sadly I’m playing on Fedimian xD
Would’ve been fun to test,though.

I believe the main problem is the high CD times of all Mergen skills and the costs for attributing the skills to deal better damage,making them medicre without high transcendence and attributes of 50% and below.

Maybe I’ll throw that 7 Euro in at Rank 9 to make a Archer3>Hunter2>Falconer3>Mergen and look for the damage,
possibly I’ll be able to find it then :slight_smile:

I am not sure if I will be much of help, but I have recently reached Mergen on my Hunter (Archer 2 -> Hunter 3 -> Falconer -> Scout -> Mergen), a very similar build to the one you proposed above.

I found Mergen damage decent, but the class requires to be very well geared to be considered a solid DPS. Mergen is also very dependant (varying depending on the build of course) on Falconer for proper AOE capability.

Having Hunter in a Mergen build means that you’ll always have sustained DPS with coursing and retrieve while you wait for cooldowns. Hunter 3 also has proven to be very useful to the build path as you are able to hold mobs in place for better skill management.

The only problem of having Hunter in the build is that the class won’t provide any utility against Ground bosses and other monsters that are immune to any kind of CC. However, Hunter Mergen melts any flying monster, regardless of them being normal or boss type.

With all this being said, I just want to inform that I am currently level 290, I am uncertain how well the build will perform at later levels.

That picture is very awesome. Mergen throws the arrow like a dart, that’s how he’s so fast with his AoE skills :slight_smile:

I’d love to get to Hunter 3,too, if I’ll run that build, but then I’d be unable to take Falconer 3 or Archer 3 on that build, which is a big no-no.

Especialy Twin Arrows is your bread and butter skill later on as it allows you to deal 3 double attacks with only 7 seconds CD time, the base damage is ingorable, but if you got a good base attack, that 2 hits will hurt a lot and are superior to autoattacking (and can be attributed for even more damage, 80% more damage cost only 9,57m silver),
considering the lower aspd of 2hand bows and no means to increase it besides Kneeling Shot on that build xD

Falconer 3 is essential because of the Circling attribute that spreads damage of enemies onto nearby enemies, which makes Mergens skills so much more effective when fighting against mobs that it’s too good to pass.

The Atlatl is actually a pretty effective hunting weapon.

Umm twin arrow is a fake multihit, sure it seems amazing but, I’ve got an archer 3 scout 3 falc mergen, Twin arrow was my most used skill, now its hotkey is gathering dust. Shame it’s a fake multihit, fake multihits should not exist!

We still have to see how well Mergen will perform at C2, as well as the upcoming R9 C1 classes. Though For now your idea remains very interesting.

About that picture, it apparently seems to be a display error that can be easily triggered by using arrow sprinkle. Here’s another one:

A very safe way to handle fireworks, don’t you agree?
