General 2h Ques

1) For 2h, which sword (stat) is better ;
(in long term)
•Hell reaper (worth taking to +S n then 2s?)
•Indigo Jet (A10S10Cd10Cd20)
[ how ya ppl manage the crit @.@; ) even with berserk, like..how often used??]
•Indigo Jet (A10Fc20)
• [or make-do with Hell reaper for now n wait till 5th anniv weapons r released?]

2) Should Tempest be preferred or nah in this day n era ? (In case we wanna work solo and/or pt)

3) Which should be preferred first, Max Quick Aura or Max Tempest(if someone suggests to take it) ?

4) Is Kairiki Ranshin useful for 2h in combo
-w-; )? (...what combo?)

5) ...Brave Aura yeah or nah? ..since u get hit n bam..its gone >.>; ) unless you dodge almost all atk (hats off to ya then *^*)

6) aside from usual passives, anything l might be missing to increase atk -w-; )?

 

1.) Player stat is better when comes to damage but for me, I choose Hell Reaper. Without Crit stat from player made is so annoying to deal with specially on bosses that has crit resistance. Damage from Hell Reaper is not that much inferior to player made anyway if you are not a hug attacker rank cancer or something.

2.) Too slow just like enchant so a NO for me and you'll rarely use it believe me.

3.) If you rely on berserk a lot, ignore quick aura. Other than that, I guess take it if you have spare points or star gem. Not gonna say about tempest because I still find it super slow to be relevant as main or secondary dps skill.

4.)Some use it but not worth the skill investment, the buff does give a lot of attack with ampr but only for 10 secs. If you like to get burned always then go. Using Recovery constantly is too tedious for me just to remove ignite status. You are also at 3m range so it is quite risky unless you master meteor timing but still awfull for me to get.

5.)A big NO for me. Wasting some skill points to take that skill is an idiotic thing to do as a 2H. it is impossible to dodge all attacks in order to keep that brave aura buff with how a short combo mana cost works(too costly on mana) and as to how close you are on boss. The mana to recast the aura again can be used on other dps skill which can make the run faster by dealing more damage and not waste some few seconds just to recast it again after few seconds because it got removed. It is such a stupid thing to do.

6.) Not sure aside from Two Hand Passive and some passive from battle skill tree. Max Sukuchi I guess? for ampr purposes when decoy is no longer reliable on moving bosses.

 

Ok!
Thank you so much for the detailed answer
><)!
Stat wise?
•Nah, not crazy for attacker rank x3
But asking for decent dmg to solo~
•Hell reaper does allow variable equips cuz no worries over crit x3
•And l agree with the kairiki n Brave aura thing -w-; ) ..as a mage its hard to maintain..cant imagine as 2h..
•for tempest? Wasnt sure, but thanks for clearing the pros and cons :3
•I didnt think bout maxing shukuchi..nice suggestion owo)/!
I do encounter prob when target moves too much :/ (aka ww, a pain to lvl at)

 

Tempest.. Well.. Unless they add another boss with extremely low damage cap like Hell Empress, it's not that useful as main DPS. There are still situations where it could be useful, like when you can't get within 7m away from the target. Still a fun skill, I say.

Spoiler

Shameless self promotion..

 

..xD
I get it~
Thank you for the suggestion/practical use xD
But according to what you guys say, its a rarely/situational skill~
So if l do get it, might aswell keep it after l have gotten all main/necessary skills~
Nice of ya to solo Hell empress btw owo; )
..I remember when in start, no party could even survive there >.>; )

 

first cast recovery then astute or reflex, berserk (save), kairiki ranshin (cons), war cry (cons), rampage (swift) then go close to boss then cast decoy shot, trigger slash (cons). then clone will have a 1000+ ASPD and you gain decent AMPR, after this set up you can spam impact meteor combo

 

What are some main skills that I should focus on as a 2h sword?

Should I build the blade tree and the assist tree as well?
