vocal's glass hybrid storm fu

this is my first class guide so go easy on me
we r all talented doods so if u have the same idea....well all i can say is ur not gonna have combo n other shts all 100% same as mine right ...? well in any case do help contribute if ur kind ;u;/
if ever, pls do not compare this build with op 200k heavy smashes ;-;.... well this uses storm as main, not heavy smash

Note:
i dont own any resposibility if this build sux, im sharing it for fun .u./
lets begin.. ._./

RATING
> u give it urself, what i feel may not be what u feel ._.


------------------------------------Storm fu-----------------------------

bascially this MAGE - hybrid build just use mage skills (storm) as main and Heavy smash/3kick as sub dmg...
trivia: reason why 'i' call it glass cannon is because 'i' die 24/7 with this, but may not apply to u .-./

-----------------------------------Stats----------------------------------


since mage skills r main, cap int
int>str

sample:
not showing my spina because im too broke
im at lv103 w crappy gear n knux equipped
so u might have better stat ss than me .u./ (this is just sample)

total attk (storm+3kick) w knuckle: 52.2k - 57.9k

if u do only 3kick n storm> dagger is better (but lower interrupt + 3kick crit chance)
if u do 3kick + storm + heavy smash> knuckle is better (50% higher crit + 100% dmg for 3kick + 150% hs dmg + interrupt chance, but lower magic attk)

 

Hp boost + roga needed to increase your survival rate. Too many unnecessary combo, choose your ultimate combo that will balance your damage and survivability. You're very gutsy to shoot arrow at point blank range. Use chain cast to unleash storm faster, just place it after arrow. This has so much potential. ^_^

 

Show me dat spina i doubt its less than 9 digits

 

atm im using roga w vita plus ll, still die alot x-x, ill add hp boost if i get extra sp .u./ (my sp ded atm)
i listed down all the combos that come to mind yesterday, some are lil edits of another, ill clean them in a while .u.
i always use interrupt skill before arrow, so it buys time for arrow cast, which is abt 1sec+ with the cspd i have atm (no pots)
problem with chain cast is that it reduce cast time, but cast time will never be 0, plus there is animation time after u casted storm. (aka u need to swing the staff, wait for the storm to land on the mob), so there is a chance ur gonna be flinched/tumbled/stun by the mob, thats why i decide to put a interrupt skill (impact) after arrow, tumble him before he tumbles me :v
tq ^^

._./ i have lesser spina than u

 

-cough-

 

.u.

Spoiler

 

I thought you will use triple kick, heavy smash is not really good if you have only shell break as a guard breaker

 

3kick is for normal combos, heavy smash is for additional dmg if guard break proc ^^ (spam normal combo>sb proc>switch to hs immdediately)
else sb is kinda wasted :\.... , if it procs only for mp recover uses .-.....
(and hs do 2x dmg of 3kick when sb proc )

 

>> updated with 'better...?' combos
>> cleared some trivia combos
>> added new sht known as drugs n dmg

 

I was looking forward to the video but after i click spoiler .. :'))

 

;u;// rip

 

Lol too much SP to be use!!! And few for passives XD

 

yep lots of sp , but enough to max the needed skills xD

 

Well if you got all XD I can play nonstop for only 2 hours because of battery XD

 

XD maybe in future lvl cap i can get all
(well can still use pots to cover up for the skills from battle skill and surv skill )

 

Mikuuuuu
Try this for skill ss next time :3
coryn.club/skill_simulator.php
Btw, nice build~!!

 

Why not max Shell Break when you have more sp ?

 

mm...well, maxing shell break doesn't increase guard break rate.. only dmg
so better to spend them on different skill :3

 

GTFO BROKE MY ASS U BAWLIN

Also may I request a 1v1? .u. I wanna see how well it's dps is
