Any clue if it is going to be updated for the new classes, and what about builds, or are we all gonna wing it before a B.O. thread comes out? Doubt an archer pure build will work, but who knows...


:< And i hope the new classes will start with wings like the elves do!

    It's a fan site(?), ask the webmasters?

    You could also wait until the patch is publicly released and all the client-side data is delivered so they can go in and examine said contents.

    That's not pure dex. You're going to give yourself too much strength if you follow that build, it is better if you alternate between 5 dex and 1 str 4 dex when considering distribution.

    Other builds will come up, but you can't really go wrong with a pure dexterity build.

    Yes, you need 1 str per level to wear at-level Light Armor.

    Give me a week with my assassin and I can make the most awesome guide ever. You people who have to have guides before playing are boring, learn to wing it and learn as you play. I find it much funner that way at least.

    For stat builds, I was browsing youtube recently and saw 2 people post videos about stat builds based on experiences from China version or something like that.

    Some assassin go either:

    1) "Full Dex Build" (Every level - 4 Dex, 1 Str) since assassin damage is based on dex

    2) "Hybrid Build" (Every level - 3 Dex, 1 Str, 1 Vit)

    So yeah, so basic cookie cutter builds to start you off for those who don't want to spend time remaking their characters trying to figure out optimal builds.

    here's first 10 lvls of build....

    Lvl 1: Str 5, Agi 5, Con 5 - Base stats ofc
    Lvl 2: Str 6, Agi 9, Con 5 - Add 1 Str, 4 Agi, and NO Con
    Lvl 3: Str 7, Agi 12, Con 6 - Add 1 Str, 3 Agi, and 1 Con
    Lvl 4: Str 8, Agi 16, Con 6 - Add 1 Str, 4 Agi, and NO Con
    Lvl 5: Str 9, Agi 19, Con 7 - Add 1 Str, 3 Agi, and 1 Con

    and so on b:victory

    for ppl who dont care about Con or know how to live w/o it just take the Con and add to Agi =o so yea 1 Str, 4 Agi every lvl

    lol your not very well informed, assassin uses LA which is 1 str 1 dex per lvl req not arcane armor which then would be 5 mag and 4 mag 1 str not 5 dex 4 dex 1 str lol. i'm personally gonna go 3 dex 1 str 1 vit to abuse blood bath later on, and to give myself atleast a slightly larger hp pool. i'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that it'll be 14 hp per vit. were not bm so not as high at 15 and were more mele then archer so higher then 13 but then again it's just speculation. either way lvl 10 is 140 hp higher and lvl 20 is 240 hp higher. it does add up in time. and since i'll be hand to hand i'm gonna want a hp pool. plus theirs a skill that heals us 20% of our hp bar and keeps us alive in the process so the more hp the more use that has plus blood bath helps. and this way we can have some fun at like say lvl 30-40 or whenever we get blood bath. (hopefully not a 59 buff cause that'd suck) and just use invisibility and hunt down FB bosses all day for molds and such of the like. 3*'s sorta like i do on my veno but I farm the mats and just wine it.

    either way that's my way i'm doing my sin early on take it as you will. and sry for so much text and some off subject

    But they have a skill to heal themselves based off the damage they do. Why give yourself more HP when you'll be needing to pot it more anyway? More damage actually improves survival for these guys too.

    Heavy assassins may be a viable build even if the daggers have a 3 dex/level requirement. 3 dex 2 str per level allows you to wear HA roughly 1 grade below your level, with at-level weapon. Maybe even at-level HA if you find a lot of +str and +dex gear and restat accordingly.

    Personally I'm more wondering if daggers are class-restricted. I wanna knife some people with my archer.

    As far as I know, they are pure dex build. I don't know if the can fly right off the bat, but they do have their own special racial wings.
    Everyone needs to remember that they are meant to critical strike people close up. Some of the skills on the site said they can disappear from view and move away unseen too. So along with these skills a pure dex build will probably be best.

    Other builds will come up, but you can't really go wrong with a pure dexterity build.

    and you obviously dont know what you're talking about either, because if someone follows what you said, they'd only have about half the strength they needed for light armor. turn your brain on grab some coffee or something before you open another typebox again.

    pure dex is indeed adding a str point every lvl and the rest to dex (1str 4dex every lvl), that is after you've got your strength to your lvl+4, then u just do the 1s 4d to maintain a pure dex build
    i'm pro all classes, and against none in particular..
    but the age old QQ about venos is just that. OLD.
