sword man 3 is good if you have a good pvp build, but your build is not
shino be can be good only with hop c2 for spear lunge
corsair c3 got buff later but they are most effective with hop c2 also because of spear lunge
templar ? even templar have their GvG build
so i think you really mess up your build, i can’t even think about a good class to choose for you at r7
if i have to choose one, it must be corsair c3
Surprised at how the patch really changed things; before, Corsair 3 wasn’t that great an option now it’s stepped up to be a decent pick… what changed?
Dragoon doesn’t really have that that much synergy with what I have so far… Don’t know how well that’ll work out even if Dragoon 2 is great.
Would Doppel not be a decent choice, too? Even Circle 1 has really good synergy with Barbarian and Cyclone itself is a good damage dealer for Swordsmans.
going corsair 3 is better because you already have corsair 2, going doppel means you are missing rank 7 which isn’t really good imo, and if you already have corsair 1, not going corsair 2 is bad.
i still think shinobi is your best option, do not take neither fencer or doppel as you will lose rank 7 and its bad,i highly suggest you pick shinobi or corsair 3.
rank 8 is up to you, although i believe lancer is kinda your only option
Hmm… I guess the problem comes down to Corsair 2. This isn’t a matter of a messed up build (Barbarian was taken as soon as possible, so was Corsair) just that Corsair 2 not having very many good follow-up options and it’s looking like the same can be said for Corsair 3.
I’ve seen people go Corsair > Fencer > Corsair 2 and they don’t seem to have a problem, but if even THIS isn’t an option then, jeez… strict meta…
And I would say Lancer is probably the lesser of the two Rank 8 options. I don’t see Lancer being that useful without Cataphract unless they themselves get Trot. Murmillo seems to have more Synergy, being able to close gaps and cause AoE stun; this class seems more likely to stand on its own, and probably wouldn’t be as heavily dependent on Rodelero or Peltasta as Lancer would on Cataphract. Just my observation, though.
For rank7 you should reroll, you took classes with almost no synergy. I’m not saying for you to do an meta build, but to not keep going with this crap build.
If you still want to save this crap build take Shinobi/Corsair3 and pray for some of the Murmillos skills don’t need the shield so you can take it for a filler in rank8
I have no plans on rerolling; it’s either keep going with this or stop playing the game altogether since there’s really no point on restarting.
I’m not against going Corsair 3 so if that’s the better option, then fine. And I doubt all the Murmillo skills will require shields, even if they do there’s always weapon swapping.
all we try to do is help you get a good build by all means if you want a bad build with no synergy go doppel or fencer.
corsair 3 and shinobi are simply your strongest options.
Corsair3 is ok then, you can use the ■■■■■■■ ManaMana. Shinobi do better dmg with Hoplite2>Corsair2 since Kunai is pierce. Going Doppel is ok as well, you get DoV and Cyclone (which get some use to your cleave debuff).
The real deal with your build is not the r7, but the rank8, you don’t have any good options besides Murmillo (if the shield is not a must) or taking a class from a early rank. Maybe you can take Shinobi at rank8, but don’t know if it’s gonna be a good choice.
Pray for not having to use swap, the swap lag kill it.
I guess I should have mentioned that I’m not looking for what necessarily does the most DPS, but what has good utility and teammate synergies as well. That’s one of the reasons I went with the path I did; because it had a lot of utility (as well as being really fun play) and why Templar is a consideration because having a guild would be fun.
As far as Rank 8 options being underwhelming goes… that’s not a problem with my build specifically, it seems more of a problem with Corsair itself (at least Circles 2 and 3). Corsair is a pretty popular choice and most people take Corsair 2 because… that’s the reason you go Corsair in the first place. I’d just like some input from people who have gone Corsair 2 because I bet not all of them took Corsair 3 or Shinobi at Rank 7.
For fun go corsair 3
if you want, you can take dragoon at rank 7 and use 1h spear +dagger (dragoon get 1h spear attribute) you’ll be able to use all your corsair skills with that, that way you’ll be good for rank 8 and 9.
Most builds i saw were with Corsair2 where Hoplite2>Corsair2>Shinobi or Dragoon. Templar is nice if you are looking for making a guild, the c2 got a great skill, the buff share, for party/WB and maybe GvG.
You can take Dragoon too, your dmg will not be nice as the ppl that got Hoplite2 or 3, but the new atrib for Serpentine that gives an 100%+ p.dmg is nice if you party with Swordies and Archers.
Templar or Dragoon are the best options if you wanna something that goes well with Rank8. If you pick Templar you know your path till rank9.
My build is similar to yours but I took Pelt instead of SW c2. While doesn’t share more info on rank 8 classes, I’m playing some other characters. Paths I see as of now:
I don’t like Templar because I don’t want to have a guild. If it’s fun for you, then go for it. Even without Hoplite, I think Shinobi should be the best option. From what I’ve seen rank 8 cleric classes, Dragoon can’t bring much to other classes. I’m either going route #2 or #4. Probably #2.

i still think dragoon has synergy with this build because dragoon get 1h spear attribute so he can use dagger kinda, its kinda his best choice since he doesn’t want shinobi (and he doesn’t seem to want corsair 3)

I’m fine with Corsair 3, I’m just considering my options since, maybe, I’d like to move out of the Corsair branch and try something new, and I’m reluctant to go Shinobi for a couple of reasons: 1) I hear the class is pretty buggy; with that in mind, I can see the class being fixed later on and not working as it once did. 2) I also hear the requirements to become Shinobi are long, grindy, and overall f*cking stupid… that in itself doesn’t sound like it’s worth the trouble.
I liked playing the Assassin back in RO, that’s the main reason I took Corsair (break stuff, steal things), and one of the reasons why Dragoon, as a class (along with the other spear-wielders), doesn’t interest me. I will take it into consideration, but the choice of going Dragoon for me is just above going Swordsman 3…
Considering the classes abilities and gimmicks; I’d say some of the best synergies with my build would be…
Fencer: Attaque Croquile, and Preparation at C2 make Hexen Dropper absurd, Lunge also debuffs for higher slash damage which works well with Cleave. Plus, they’re evasion based.
Doppel: DPE and Jolly Roger are just a fun gimmick together, DoV with DWA is going to be really nice for an auto-attack build, and Cyclone is a good follow up to Barbs stun attacks. Though, C2 doesn’t offer too much, C3 (which would be Rank 9…) offers many more nice benefits. (AoE Punish is pretty neat, not going to lie)
Shinobi: Evasive, sneaky bastards fits in well with Corsair. Cloned Hexen Dropper can be crazy and I wonder what a cloned Iron Hook would do.
This is also not counting the C3s of the current classes I am, as the synergies there are a given.
It’s just too bad Fencer and Doppel are both Rank 6…
