Combo's

nativedave

I'm a level 31 Seeker and I can't figure out a solid combo (Or skill chain?) If that makes sense. Anyone have any suggestions?

Post your Seeker combo's for different purposes and different levels.

i don't much like to use macros, so at level 37, i've only got two of them; one a buff-up macro with my self-buffs, the other a "standard range opener" one with heart shatter->battousai->staggering strike->autoattack.

that opener brings whatever-it-is into melee range without me usually having to move at all, and then i can fight them manually from there.

Blade Affinity > Heart shatter > Gemini strike > Ion Spike > Battousai/stalagstrike usually kills just about everything thats attacking me in a good go in PVE

PvP its more like this:

Vs Heavy: Parched blade stance > Heartseeker > Blade affinity > Ion Spike > Voidstep/Battousai > Stalagstrike > Unfetter if needed to kite away then repeat.

Vs Arcane: Soulsever minuet stance > Heart seeker > Battousai or other ranged physical attack until Spirit bore effect procs, Blade affinity > Gemini slash

Vs Archer or wiz: Soulsever minuet or Parched blade > Voidstep > staggering slash > battousai > Heart seeker > wait for proc of skill then use accordingly.

Vs Sin: Parched blade stance > Edged blur > heart seeker > Stalag strike > Battousai > Blade affinity > Ion Spike

Vs Veno with nix: wait for bleed effect > Quid pro quo > Holy path b:chuckle

persenolly i think for heavy itd be better to do this

max spark possible(depending on lvl)-blade affinity-heartseeker-ion spike-gemini slash+make sure u have soulserver on before u start if u go sage this combo is all kinds of op and u can probably get all 3 of those skills outt before affinity is over if its maxed
on top of that theyll be frozen so they cant get to u this whole timeb:victory

Only thing I macro is the self buffs (bladed fervour and adrenal). For PvE I generally open with Heart Shatter and Heartseeker followed by Battousai or Shattering Strike. If I know it's a mage/ranged only mob I'll either use LA and just pound it with ranged attacks (spark gemini slash and soulsever) or I'll also use Voidstep to get into melee and hopefully stun again with Parchedblade. If its a ranged and melee mob I tend to use HA and just go straight from Heart Shatter to Shattering Strike and into melee, again using Parchedblade so I can stun.

If its a melee only mob then Heartseeker is great - if you manage to immobilize it you can also run straight in to melee and it wont hit you until the debuff runs out, useful little glitch that.

Don't have much experience of PvP, though I can say against Arcane that Blade Affinity > Spark > Gemini can one shot alot of them, follow up with Battousai or Shattering if they are still alive

try to avoid using gemini on a heavy because it's a purely physical attack

Yeah... maxed Soulsever causes Gemini to deal 7372.5 metal-damage, and that'll hurt, especially with 35% extra metal-damage from Ion Spike.

the time to cast makes it really hard to cast off especially if your against a Bm because they can interrupt, a barb could likely, if they see you casting it use invoke and buffer it, or interrupt you from casting and freezing you. Meaning you just wasted 3 seconds to cast it or made yourself very vulnerable to a painful stunlock. A seeker posesses no healing skills until 79 and as opposed to a BM who does at 29. By thinking quickly and using fast firing skills that do metal damage you're more likely to fend them off quicker. By keeping yourself moving you will frustrate the barb or bm (mainly bm because they rely on stun then auto attack) and allow you to open them up to a very handy defeat. If you get the opportunity to cast Gemini because they've become under the effect of spirit bore, and are frozen then do it, but thats too many variables, and personally I'd rather 2-3 shot someone than hoping to one shot them with a wild card of a chance to trick shot someone.

While thts true to some extent, kiting a bm and only using metal ranged attacks isn't gonna cut through a heavily charmed with loads of hp.....wat i usually do is try to proc soulver then gemini slash n decrease their def n attack lvl...kite with heartseeker and do some metal debuffs and wait till u got 3 spark

then u voistep to them..sage unfetter for immune to stun and vortex...tht deals some extra dmg tht will bring any class to 0 hp quickly...also 3 spark + cloud eruption + immune to stun apoc and vortex....thts a combo killer right there against high hp ppl

I see your argument, but I dont really like waiting for a chance to see if you can possibly reduce their defense levels. Its just me. And yes, Vortex is pretty much a killer of anything, its especially fun to use affinity then vortex while playing DD with a higher level tank with aps... they usually dont expect a lowly lvl 60 to take aggro from them <.<
