im really just looking to the pros to see if you can make this better. i love my dex build but most of the time i dont curse unless my opponent does. any advice is greatly appreciated |
Advice?
List some Spells for the "Magic" portion of your build. Or else it's just "Melée with Moon weapons that do lower damage than every other kind except for Blessed (which gives you HP Regen, making it better) and Dragon."
Raise Intelligence so that you can use something besides Firespray or Soul Ray. Ideally 24 Int. That gives you room for Fireball (the most epic wakeup Spell ever) and Soul Ray (a nice heal interrupter if timed properly) or Firespray (to finish off opponents with a small amount of HP).
A list of things you should include in your build:
And lastly, if you've taken a glance at the front page (or any page) of the Character Builds section of the wiki) you'll see that there is an excess supply of these 'Spellsword' builds, and they're all the same. Make this one unique, but still as effective as Nick's (the one that works).
I'd like to see this when it's done, cheers.
i forgot to hit the reply button, look at post below
hey spaceship i have a spellsword build already. i was wondering what yall thought i could improve on this build. this is a pure melee build i was thinking of that didnt use buffs. i know it will do less damage than a dex build i just wanted to try something new to me. i know it will be good against warding im just asking if it could be better. i really dont want spells on this one. and thank you for the reply
Use a Faith or NR Build. Those are potent builds without buff reliance. Just be prepared for people to be buffing their weapons more often than not.
faith and nr builds dont use uchis. thats what i am aiming for. would this do more damage with katana than an unbuffed dex build? i thought it was a good idea but i guess i was wrong
It would do about the same damage due to split damage from the Moon kats. NR Builds could use dual Makatos, which deal slightly less damage than an unbuffed Dex with a small HP Drain and longer range.
I'm just saying that Spells would make this build outright better. Decrease Vit by 1, End by 5, and Mag by 5 and increase Int to 24. That way you can have Fireball, Firespray and Soul Ray, or Warding, Soul Ray, and Firspray.
