I dont fucking care, I just want to make my life hard
Oh well, thank you for the answer

22

not the light magic hate :sob:

23

Sorry buddy, sand magic does your job but far better

24

shadow magic sobbing

25

i’ve tried wood conj and it’s really not THAT awful. but yes it is very bad lol, at least for conj standards.

  • Running more than 1 drawback. 1 drawback becomes less efficient than an Agate after 11 hits so it isn’t as bad but arena PvP is all about speed so expect those 11 moves to come out quickly.

  • Poison Boxing Warlock. The most passive magic paired up with the most aggressive Fighting Style is a recipe for disaster. Fights will be drawn out but you simply can’t deal enough damage and the opponent can just stat-check you at close range.

    • However, if you run these two on a Savant alongside agility/regen, you can play an extremely annoying turtling build that will likely pull the hairs out of any world PvPers you meet.

  • Cannon Fist Warlord. With HE shells you deal a tiny bit more damage than unimbued thanks to Bleed II. Glass Conj is better in that regard and it isn’t exactly “good” either. However I can see this build working if you spec fully into Strength, use Heavy Grapeshot (more damage than Basic Combat) and use weapons purely for utility like unimbued shield and a musket.

  • Knight. After shields required the user to have the weapon’s stat requirement x2 in levels in order to use them, paired up with Bow M1s nerfs, the class is now on the gutter until full release.

  • Snow Paladin. A not-so-good magic with no synergies until full release. I would’ve placed Crystal instead due to its lower consistency, but at least it synergizes with the Patrimony and can power stack in the same way Sand Paladins can.

im gonna crash out bro, thermo still exists
we were nerfed but not forgotten

28

and screw wood

29

also… as someone running 10 drawback with a potion build… why do you use vatrachos??

30

I made the build way back before any good armors came around and never took the effort into farming better gear

rn I sit at 3,000 HP and 300 agility

31

armoured frozen titanium has the highest defense (tied with frozen armoured oracle, but that requires vit + gives regen)

i currently run armoured frozen oracle, armoured mountainbreaker cape, and armoured frozen titanium pauldrons, all with painite.

with the full release painite + vatrachos defense buffs i’m gonna be eating good

32

o that defense

oh wait a minute I forgot what I was running

I was running like full theurgist with full painite
I think I was looking to get 300 agility since I wanted to make the build track-star like

33

i currently sit at 4.9k (4.7k with my current stat loadout since i sacrificed some vit for weapons, but that’s irrelevant on full release since vit won’t give hp anymore)

now that i think of it, i need to log back on and farm for more golden apples to finish maxxing out my block power.

it’s still upsetting that the potency bonus only applies when consuming potions, not when brewing it.

34

I probably plan on running low health-ish (probably 2,000 when update releases if thats low enough cuz of current power-scaling) and high agility mainly because I wanna rely more on potions (EX agility and ironskin pot combined)

and thank god for that upcoming update

I can finally pvp/pve with potions without worrying about running out
(I’m not spending 3 hours of my time brewing 3k harming pots)

35

health potions scaling off of max hp is amazing though, tbf. burst health pots heal me and my allies for 1.2k health per potion

36

also i beg you to brew gilded harming 5 greatburst potions
they do 800 dmg

37

Level 140 savant but you didn’t allocate any of your points into any stats.

38

that MAY be the reason to why vetex is nerfing harming potions
its so over potion users

39

only 1.2k?

I wonder what I’ve been making (I forgor)

they usually healed me for 1.4k during my time with em (probably cuz I’m using golden pearls and lily’s I think)

That reminds me I should actually start using my sunken elements since I’ve been hoarding it for so long

40

ah yeah, this is just uncommon catalysts w/ saint lilly’s. regular burst pots heal for 1.2k, i haven’t bothered to use any of the more rare cataylsts for drinkable potions
