The Magic Swordsman Guide =(^.^)= (discontinued)

Yo so im Building a 1h Shinobi meaning a MageKnight class so i was wondering if you were able to help me build it up.
- Shinobi Class
-Stat = Agi, Str, Dex, Int, (Highest Pts to Lowest Pts)
-Skills = Lvl2 Swordsman, Lv3 Mage Skill Set, And Of Course The Extra Skills Like Battle Skills/Support Skills/ or even Survival Skills (Depend what flank your in Ex : Assaulter, Vanguard, Archer, Mage, and Support)
of corse u need to start with a SwordMaster Class (Warrior) so till u hit lvl 40-45 thats when u need to start spamming your Mage skills...
___________________________________________________After that im not sure what do_________________________________________________________

 

you get 3matk per int and 1 per dex, 2atk per str and dex. even with equal str,dex,int atk will be higher than matk because of sword mastery.
(the atk penalty from MD sub doesn't change that)
using int as the least used stat is very ineffective.
i guess you use agi to be more ninja-ish, like i do on my evasion mage, but it's the 2nd stat.
i don't think this build will do good, but i like the idea. (i tried something similar with my first mage )
so i suggest a change of weapons to make it usable:
use knuckles and MD and go for agi,dex,int.
there are no magic knuckles, but knuckles have a higher matk growth.
agi gives you atk, speed and dodge all in 1 stat. dex takes care of accuracy and cast speed, int for matk.

or if you like ranged combat, you can also try bowgun and MD with dex,int,agi. bowguns get all their atk from dex, there is no 2nd stat.
so dex covers full atk and accuracy and cast speed, int for matk and you can use agi as 3rd for speed and dodge.
this is also the perfect chance to use quickdraw
and a legit reason to impact snipe MDs do triple damage with impact =(^.^)=

 

1h sub daggers are really close to shinobi (just get sakura kodachi app and neck warmer)

For that "ninjutsu" effect, go for level 7 impact.
stat wise, str -> dex. attack speed can be increased with brutal dragon sword and forest wolf garb.

For ur "dodging" go evasion gears. u might wanna try reflex and flash blast from dual sword skills too.
mole eyes, light armor mods, rapier = 25 percent evasion chance, get lightweight knife and u have 40 percent evasion.

Frankly though, A dual sword build does better at this though.

 

my ninja theory =(^.^)=
knuckles+dagger = ninja
sword+dagger = assassin
knuckles+shield+priest = monk
knuckles+MD = magic monk
staff+dagger = magic ninja

 

Lol, those are most likely fighter monk martial artist types but they are considered a ninja class XDDD thx for the intel and honest thought.

 

*bump*

- minor update for the Spellblade:
since attack power is low, i added an alternate stat building option that is more sword focused at first

 

Quick Slash scales with lvl??? Characters level or skill level???

 

+110 aspd at lvl 10...
weak

 

character level.
maybe it's just the normal "stats scale with level" thing, but it's more than without the skill.

 

*bump*
- updated formatting
- added (more) helpful hints
- they are now purple

 

Well my build is near your second build but im using dagger as my sub... I increase my stats, str int and dex in a ratio of 1:1:2... and i have the other tree instead of impact

 

without MD your physical skills are stronger but your magic looses effect.
matk is also lower than a mage, so you should focus more on the sword/dagger skills.
Power Wave will half your damage if you don't have magic weapons, so better not use it :/
MP Charge will take 5 seconds, so i suggest to learn Trigger Slash for mp recovery.
good luck =(^.^)=

 

I'm trying to find a good dagger for matk increase, and ill have power wave just to lower it's defense by basic attack and use a whole lot of magic then a physical damage, increasing both at the same time... hehehe Ill try to get trigger slash but I'm still low in skill points ^_^ but thanks for the info!

Here is my new combo ^_^

 

*bump*

Major Update:
- removed Paladin (it wasn't good)
- complete rewrite of everything, many improvements
- added inspirations for other magical hybrids, re-introducing the Paladin with a different build

 

I think u can add astute and trigger slash

For astute :
As u know we use stat ratio on
Str>Int>Dex
2:2:1
Astute will give use crt rate buff +25% for 10s ( at lv 10 ), since we still low on dex = less hit ( i fell it -.-, HH so Frequent get miss since we need more time to cast long combo ) it will be nice for get guarantee hit from crt and we use str too ^^ and that was mean more crt dmg we do ( prefer to be more dps ) even for late game i think it will be usefull so we dont really need crt rate for Gear and can focus on dps or tank ( more hp, Def,e tc ( imo this class is one of most versatile class in game ) ) and our personal stat is crt its suited well with this skill

For trigger slash :
It will be nice if put on da last Combo since it effect make our ampr increase (?) until we cast other spell or Combo ( we hunger if mp right ) and got Fire Elemental atk too *^*

 

yes, i know =(^.^)=
but they are on the other branch and i wanted to get the other skills first.
currently i don't have enough points for more skills, but they can be added later.

 

I just created a SpellBlade - based on your build
Btw nice concept..., STR - INT-DEX

currently still lv 66 thou - and currently working on it

i found something interesting during the build :

- Our Normal hit Somehow become our main damage source (my opinion) - coz non of our skill really had decent damage -_-"
*it just me or...,damage bonus on Power Wave only work on range slash (?) - coz on blank point my auto attack become much weaker than range slash

- Trigger Slash Motion skill buff greatly reduce cast speed on Magic skill
(work on all magic - include Mana Charge)

- Magic javelin work very well in middle of combo - here all of debuff list each element
Update Debuff list : (already tested it all)
Fire : Ignite
Earth : Slow *work almost on all boss
Light : Dizzy (i dont know what effect it gave) *tested on BK
Dark : Flintch (I tested it many time on different kind of monster and only give flintch effect) *maybe someone found what debuff it give (?)
Wind : Blind
Water : Freezing


i still cant find a right combo to make with this build thou...

- Question : what skill that potentialy become our main Damage (?) - still could find best damaging skill on this build...

PS : Lets Perfect this build
*Long life magic knight~

 

i wonder if double smite tempest + storm could work...
