AMPR Arrow Mage Burst/Finale Build (prototype)

Hello, today I like to share a mage build that I've been thinking about. Haven't work on it tho since it's just an idea atm.

Idea for this build is to use a near 100cr high aspd/cspd mage build that can ampr using decoy shot. While decoy shot is active, we use a 1-4mp combo chain combining bow and magic skill. Since combo chain is slightly long, will need gsw and sneak attack to speed up animation and minimize aggro. If it turns out ampr is fast enough, can just use impact>burst/Finale combo.

> 2-4mp finale (110% dmg)
Moeba shot - arm break(save) /sneak
attack (save) - impact(cons) -
finale(smite) - Holy fist(cons)

> 1mp burst (130% dmg)
Moeba shot - smoke dust(save) - javelin
(swift) - impact(cons) - burst(smite) -
finale(smite)
(need about 5.5k cspd to insta cast burst
If just relying on this combo)

Extra notes:
- if use sneak or decoy combo before burst
combo, only need 3.3k cspd, to which that amount of CSPD can be covered just from stats and gears alone

- Finale/burst combo is spammable since it
deals both phy n mag dmg, so less worry
abt proration, just need to worry abt aggro
And time taken to cast combo

I really like the idea! ^^ Staff + Arrow is rare to see nowadays.

I guess my main concern is how helpful decoy with be with staff’s very short auto-attack range. Casting decoy may be a nuisance due to power wave and due to how you’d have to switch between long and short range to keep it active, but to keep finale from being too dangerous. Also using arrow as a sub weapon already gives you some decent MP conserving options.

Mage paired with decoy works much better with magic devices as your main weapon in my opinion because the auto-range is much longer so it’ll more reliably stay within range, and it also lets you stay at a distance at all times. Bowgun + MD with max conversion isn’t a bad option either but its MATK will suffer since its growth is less than Staff/MD/knuckles.

As long as it works for you though then that’s all that matters! Good luck if you try it out! ^^)b

 

True, staff + decoy shot does make it annoying to move around, unless I seperate them.

Like if staff, it's the bow+magic combo
& if MD, it's the decoy shot ampr

Huh a 2 in 1 build

Sucks that staff can't long range decoy shot, would've been the perfect fit.

 

With finale, you want mirage evasion maxed. Nice build tho
