Hi all!
i have been playing for a while now and im tired of being so squishy =x

now that i got a job i will start spending money on game make a new character with only 1 focus:

SURVIVE ON TWS


the logical decision to me was to make a barb,get r9 and then put +10 vit stones and +10 everything...but then made this same question to a lot of ppl this is what i heard:
-make a PSY with white vana set and put JOSD instead of +10vit stones,
- keep the barb idea but put JOSD on ur set
- seeker is what you are looking for...etc.


what is u guys opinions?
tks

ps: pw calc links are apreciated ^^

edit: so far psys are winning..
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] i have seen PW alive...it was awesome xD

    Best survived class in TW is the one who can hit large groups of enemies hard and fast, Wizard ranks in at number 1 there in my opinion

    Good intentions are like peeing yourself in dark leather pants, you get warm feelings inside, but it doesn't show.

    Don't choose the Barbarian because you'd have to run forward to attack someone, which makes it incredibly hard to kill, especially if you have to run head first into 3 wizards. I'd definitely choose an archer with this following build:

    with only 1 focus:

    SURVIVE ON TWS

    I think the choice is pretty simple. make a sin lvl to 105. Use lvl 11 force stealth and stay in stealth the whole time. For even better chance to survive, make sure you stay behind your spawn towers and fly in the air. This will almost guarentee that you'll survive in TW.

    We have a winner.



    And all the pwcalcs above are totally off. If you really wanna use things aside from the above response, it'd be something more like: http://pwcalc.com/8e04f3514f7a4640

    With that much soulforce, anything that attacks you is screwed. Plus you have voodoos to boost your damage/defense. Oh and let's not forget the whole ability to spark and get buffed to wind up looking like: http://pwcalc.com/bb15e64d00fdcb18

    if you want survivability in TW, your looking at a psy, wiz, or archer.

    I've TW'd as a psy, wiz, bm, archer, and sin.

    The bm would get wtfpwnt as soon as he came within range of wizards/archers.
    The sin would get wtfraped as soon as he left stealth.
    The psy would be fine for the most part, unless a sin/archer caught me in black voodoo.
    The wiz and archer can go through whole hour TWs with only 2 or 3 deaths. If you play your wiz/archer right and don't wander into the fray, and holy path backwards whenever a sin/archer/wizard/psy targets you, then you'll be fine.

    Now that's with me playing my archer/wiz at 9x with decent gears. I can only imagine the survivability of either class at 101 with r9 +12.

    DaKillanantor: Yeah I've seen 101 w/ r9 gear psy.....

    Simply put about psy's they are mega OP in TW...especially if they have some insane *** soul force. One AOE from them and BAM 15+ people are dead on the ground going "wtf hit me!!!?"
    Nothing worthwhile to mention here, enjoy the animated signature~

    Tbh wizards are better for killing groups in TW than psys are. Our AOEs have much bigger ranges, and all 3 of them are high hitting, whereas most of the psys are mid hitting.

    Though tbh with that much refining I s'pose a psy using a "mid damage" skill would still 1 hit most people...

    For "active" survivability (not the hidden sin example above), a highly refined psy is almost unbeatable. You can use the same tactics for moving up and back as listed for Archer and Wizard, 33% change to seal anyone that attacks you with 53K soulforce, and the ability to drop into White Voodoo (I'm DefLV+150, AtkLV+4 in White - AtkLV+128 DefLV+70 in Black) make you near invulnerable (don't nitpick the numbers, doing it from memory!).

    On top of that you can deal fast amazing aoe damage or even faster single target damage as needed, plus aoe stuns and other effects.

    I'm not even trolling when I ask, is it possible to kill a highly refined psychic?

    I know it is in a gank situation (seen it done myself in TW)

    but 1v1, can a r9 +12 psy be beaten?

    In 1v1, the only way to really beat an endgame Psy is either invul pots, or pray to whatever PWI gods you believe in that you get lucky. No matter what strategy you use, if the psy has 50k+ soulfource, you're in for an uphill battle the whole time and a major part of your fight will be waiting for the psy to **** up or for their buffs to wear off.

    He said it was an estimate from memory and his numbers probably weren't completely accurate. :P
