Swordmen Guide (Under construction)

Presentation of the guide
This its a guide that i will make with some knowlegde i´ve got when i alpha tester to advise new players or old players that want to be swordmans

Introduction to the class

First of all its a melee class that can be offensive DPS ,tanker or balanced depend of how you build your character, it use swords as weapon and its based on str or dex vit and agi stats. Its the most hard class to build but doing it correctly can be a master on his objective (tank,deal damage...)




Stats and Skills

The main stats aappear on the build char menu a,but on what measure? I would like to add other stat,etc.That will depend of your playstyle.

To start i would recommend you one stat (dex) that will give you more same attack as str but add more accuary and cspd

DPS: i recomend to build dex as main increase a bit vit to increase survival and agi to increase your aspd and reduce your attack delay dex>>agi>vit.About skills,from swordmans skills its compulsory to increase at max sword mastery,astute and quick slash.On battle skills increase Attack up and smash skill and on survival increase mp pool to make possible spam skills.

Tankers:As tank its compulsory to increase vit and hp boost skills,stats sound be around this dex>vit.On swordman skill it should be increase astute (mean tank doesnt mean to dont make damage).On battle skills defense up.On shield skill shield mastery (protection and aegis could be useful) and to finish to survival skills to increase Hp and mp and knight skills base on parry and rage sword

Balanced: A balanced class should use their stats like dex>vit=agi or both last stats mentioned on same lvl more or less.About skills,astute and hard hit defense up sword mastery,quick slash and hp boost and mp should be on the focus of a balanced swordman.



Equipment
The equipment stats its slighty different from the statsu shown, any considerate change on stats will be reflected.1 handed sword usually are more balanced and have a shield to reduce futher more damage than 2H swords that usually focus on critical damage and doesnt use shield.

That a guide that i made thinking about a lvl 100+ char (not lvl cap implemented yet) so this its a guide for those who want to keep one style on the future.

 

Oooooooo ok thank you!

 

Is build viable for 2hand sword?

 

Yep on the future when we hace more skill classes like gladiator paladín i will do one guide more advanced including crit.

 

I've seen by my own experience that Two handed warriors have more reach with their sword. Plus you can upgrade your agi skill in the skill tree and include every other equip that helps with agi. I've noticed that hit points hardly decrease as well n see more critical hits thank you for guide now I know what more to use if ever I go one handed.

 

So I want to be a dps 1h sword so I'm going to do dex and agi what are some skills for this build I didn't really see which skills you would recommend and should I do dex and agi even or get dex to 60 or something first then add agi?

 

Please read post cuz its written which one i recomend its a guide to explain all players interested about this job i wont post any build like 100 dex agi 20 and vit 17 i think everyone its enought mature to know how to build and dont copy builds

 

So max quick slash astute and sword mastery and what about attack up and smash do I max those to also do I max mp pool

 

This must be and older guide,
DPS is split between 1h swords and 2h swords.. pure wed for 1h for maximum potential, pure str for 2h.
I experimented with a Dex/Crit 1h build and it worked amazing so I recomend that if you want to max potential damage output with a 1h sword.
Gear selection is sort of dim for this guide.. even at the time of the post Warriors had way better selection.
If you plan to use one hand. Then there's no competition, BD sword all day, 2h you can either get a maximum output Boss Gob, or Crafted VS and your set.
Gear potential, Aim for the BD set for beginners, and from there buy a Good rolled plate set with high pot or aim for FV plate which is an amazing fill in. I wouldn't recomend Hand Arm gaurd for an accesory unless you plan to go full tank with little skill potential output. Muscle Talismen with a Good C. Earing is your best option for a dps set up, and for xtals. I recomend +2 str as they'll boost your Attack pretty decently untill you can manage to afford BD xtals/Boar xtals which are really cheap and easy to obtain which will maxumize damage potential output. I don't recomend mixing stats for a balanced build unless you got super gear to back up potential loss.. or is you're fine with being a weak link in high end boss farms. Of course I recommend playing however you feel like playing. There is no "correct" way to build your toon. Avoid mainstream if you can, or stick with the herd. Up to you. Have fun

 

So if I'm going for a 1h dps so your saying pure dex would be the way to go no dex and agi and what skills would be recommended for the dps 1h build?

 

Yes pure dex or dex/crit is your best choice for maximum dps potential, and Astute is any warrior builds main dps attack, build rise i'd max hard hit and Astute. as a 1h you need to max both damage passives and the attack speed passive unless you plan to use BD sword which I highly reccomend. The rest of the skills are up to your personal preference. I actually maxed all skills but sonic blade for combo chain damage.

 

Kk so I got bd sword and my atk spd right now is 1100 and my atk is 330 astute is maxed and hard hit is lvl 5 I put 6 points into trigger slash so I can do the combo hard hit astute(smite) trigger slash (consecutive) I maxed hp boost I was thinking about doing short rest and then getting sober analysis would u recommend those 2 since I have such a high atk spd I can regen mp fast. What about the atk up and smash that were recommended in this build are they worth it? Also I am using forest wolf garb over the bd armor because I've been told that bd armor is for tanks and wolf garb is dps and 1h dps I chose garb I have xtal earring and sofys talisman

 

Build up skills to your personal preference. In my opinion hp boost and the rest of those skills are a waste of points. Being a1h use you won't ever pull aggro unless you go tank, or are playing with people with crap gear. Worry about full damage boost skills or support skills if thatds how you eant to play. BD set is amazing to start out with period.. its nouyt for tanks.. I used it on my dps war for a long time and still do occasionally if I need the extra hp, wolf garbs added crit mod will help you out a bit and the max attack speed makes building combos easy, don't worry about wasting points into mp survivals or supports. With max attack speed and Trig slash you pretty much become a combo machine

 

What is the Max on atk speed? And what combo do you use with 1h dps and thanks for the help

 

Attack speed hits the .1 second interval at 1,000 I believe 1100 is max. And I don't play 1h anymore but the combo would be the same regardless. Any DPS warrior build should run the same combo Hard>Astute>Sonic>Spiral>Trigger all with consecutive. Take out sonic for certain mobs/bosses that you need to stay stationary on in example Gold Skele, stand in the center and its special can't hit you, if sonic is still in combo it will push you out of center and last thing you want is to be hit with specials mid combo, I do it all the time.. makes me mad.. lol. And you're welcome.

 

Its immposible to get any faster after 1100 is what I meant.

 

Kk so I'm set at 1100 then I shouldn't add points into agi unless I want evasion since I don't need any points in atk spd anymore. Do you know how much attack up adds to your overall attack and is smash a good skill to?

 

H+100 found in roar temple or roar silver?

 

Smash its a skill that add a chance to increase no add attack
