Well hello young ones.
I wanted to start this topic to discuss builds (swordsman only) that carry
there weight at R8. Most information we kinda have a question mark if this
stil applys to the current state of the game, or when you see that video
and the person seems to have all nice and shiny gear while enjoying a
slash/stab bonus with an additional 50% damage multiplier.
So, what i suggest we try is the following.
Let us know the current build you have, what you really
enjoy vs those ouch moments.
Also… What you consider to contribute less at R8
i’ll start:
i’m currently running a pelt c1 - hop c1 - cata c3 - dragoon
(not sure how i’ll finish)
stat conribution con 1 - dex 1
my focus was to tank but stil have fun solo’ing this being my first character
(during release of the game, only recently came back when i heard about the reset) i also wanted to expierence how it is to have that insane movement speed.
What i love about my build:
- Insane movement speed
- Great solo, fast questing
- AOE DPS
- Tanking is fun, i’ve litterly heard a guy asking me how i was stil alive
during a dungeon run where i decided to go ham.
(had no healer)
What i love less about my build:
- Avarage DPS (remember i’m 1 con / 1 dex)
- Partys in general doesn’t feel like i’m doing my part
- Solo grind isn’t really an option for this build
most of my damage comes from cata skills, i haven’t fully unlocked dragoon yet. Pelt is pure for the taunt + eva boost and hoplite became a filler
for my rotations along with a small buff (finestra + 20% damage on medium targets)
So… what about you?


was last week somewhere i think the 170 dungeon
