So I've been playing a few weeks now and at 220 prestige I feel like I have the gear to run perilous. But before I look for a perilous group on ps4 I thought it wise to speak to those with experience and maybe recieve a few tips. Oh i'm at 14 constitution, 13 cunning and willpower.

So I guess I'll list the gear of what I consider my best equipped classes, my builds and see what the perilous veterans think.

Templar:
Armor: Knight captain regalia (Honor) +54 health arms, +5% Ranged defense legs.
Accessories: Basic stamina amulet +10, superb ring of staggering, superb ring of critical chance. Superb magic defense belt, have superb melee defense and enhanced health belts also.
Weapon is 246 Dps I Level 22 common Axe with superb lightning rune.
Shield is Darkspawn Alpha shield I lvl 19. 24 defense, 6% magic defense, +4 Strength.

Skill layout: Shield wall w/ chevalier's step. Payback strike. Blessed blades. Wrath of heaven or Horn of valor, not sure what would be better for perilous.

As for player skill? I'm confident I can tank well. I did make it to boss fight Solo on routine at just level one against RT, mostly to practice using shield wall.



Archer: Is the archer even viable on perilous? I destroy threatening but he is a glass cannon.
Armor: Peerless Archers Tunic (Obsidian) +16 cunning arms, +5% melee defense legs.
Accessories: Enhanced dexterity amulet. Superb ring of critical chance, Enhanced ring of critical damage. Enhanced health belt.
Weapon: Bow of the Griffin with superb fire rune at 197dps.
Skill layout, Explosive shot, long shot, evade and leaping shot.

I do have an enhanced explosive shot ring which does seem to work, stats on skill show +30% dmg.

Necromancer:
Armor: Mortalitasi Raiment (Bloodbinder) +3 Willpower arms.
Accessories: superb amulet of willpower, superb ring of critical chance, Enhanced walking bomb ring, Enhanced belt of health.
Weapon: I lvl 23 Zealots staff. 62 electricity damage 141dps with superb spirit rune +7% Attack +3% Heal on kill +22 magic +4 willpower

Skill layout: Horror, Virulent walking bomb, Winters grasp, Spirit mark (I know it's kinda broke right now but the DOT is useful at the least.

Arcane warrior:
Armor: Enlightened Warriors (spirit) +8% Magic defense
Accessories: Superb amulet of willpower, superb ring of critical chance, superb ring of staggering. Enhanced belt of health.
Weapon: Same stave as Necro.

Skill layout: Chain lightning, Frost step, Fade cloak w/ blast and of course spirit blade.
by lvl14 I can solo threatening to completion...well not every time I try but most.

Again just looking for tips on the kind of armor upgrades i should pray for, Build or skill loadout tips. And if anyone reading this runs perilous on ps4 and wouldn't mind showing me the ropes it would be greatly appreciated.

Way overqualified for perilous.  You are good to go, I did my first perilous runs like 4-5 days after the game was released.  Good teamwork is more important than having the best vs 4th best weapon for a class.  AOE CC, pulling then breaking line of sight through chokepoints, some barriers, and you can crush perilous with pretty crappy gear.

Perilous is not gear dependant. It's team/communication dependant.

Perilous is not gear dependant. It's team/communication dependant.

I understand that's a large part of it, but that's why I put in that bit at the bottom. I don't have any friends that play and need to meet people doing perilous on ps4. I really don't want to even try pubbing it.

[III Poison III]

Add me on ps4. WizardSleeev. We'll get you in when we run.

Cool man, will do.

Incoming vid of 4 guys using inquisitor weapons on perilous? I can't wait to see that

[III Poison III]

Me neither. That would be great!

[J. Peterman]

No.

[Credit2team]

Perilous is not gear dependant. It's team/communication dependant.

and thats why you shouldn't pug it

[gay_wardens]

lol you people saying not to play with the public... you wouldn't survive 5 minutes in EVE: DUST514

How bad are the pubs on PS4? My friend plays on X1 and he says its really bad there. I play on PC the only problem I have with pubs is people don't have mics. How you can afford a gaming PC but no mic is beyond my comprehension. 

[Kjubaran]

You are good to go, for many characters the 10%/15% cooldown amu is the best choice, so if you have even blue cooldown amu, go for it.....

 

Perilous is really on 50% on comunications, 25% on team selection, 25% of gear (ofc with bad weapon its immposible...)

 

Try PullOfAbyss instead of Chain Lighting on your next promote with your AW, and u can solo perilous with 23 lv staf.

[Bobbysad]

Just unlock the arcane warrior. I am soloing it easy. Considering I have bad gear, just goes to show you how OP. 

 

Arcane warriors thrash perilous easy. all upgraded versions of > spirit blade, fade cloak, fade step, chain lightning/or dispel. Dispel helps massively vs the flying ice mage guy.

You've gotten all the answers you need but anyway: you should be able to, if you just find an organized team. Suggestion is to not PUG it but find someone on here that wants you in. I think Perilous is a lot more about CC, teamwork, being carefull and skill than actual damage, allthough damage will of course seriously increase your chance to succeed and decrease the time it takes.


Archer is of course viable. You should be more carefull not pulling aggro and keeping safe. I think one of the most important things to learn is how to actually stay alive even though you are a glass cannon... Maybe unleash that amazing damage after your tank or whatever has pulled aggro? As tank I prefer Legionnaire over templar any day but people might disagree with me there.

Also I'm not sure I like any of your builds - but who am I to say.

I'd love to see you complete Red Templars on perilous easily. I'm not quite sure I believe it, but I might be a nub. Of course it can be done, but easily? Demons though as always with Arcane should be childs play. Because they can't block you can almost just stand still and spam spirit blade till your fingers are sore. No real effort required.

There's no reason for any of us to play. Game has been finished. I am not playing it more just so the game becomes any easier. Why are people playing it? For a  challenge? Then play with base weapons like 50 damage weapons, Just to collect stupid loot? For what reason? So I can finish the game slightly faster? I've played enough of these repetitions its incredibly boring. Not only that the game crashes every single day for me. When I join someone's elses game I 90% of the time I cannot move. A terrible bug everyone has experienced.

You've soloed so much with AW that you've gone insane.

[Catastrophy]

You have AW, you're ready for perilous.

[knownastherat]

You can PUG it but it can be pain. Then again, even if team fails I still learn something. I mean if I die on DC with couple of mobs left, its almost done. The gear is alright.

Leans on the Arcane Warrior crutch and then calls the game easy.  

 

People like you are going to ruin the Arcane Warrior for the general public.

I haven't tried this Templar build on Perilous, but it does very well on Threatening:

 

Skill layout: Shield wall+Upg, Wrath of Heaven+Upg, Spell Purge+Upg, Horn of Valor+Upg

 

WoH+SP is a powerful combo. 

 

Upgraded Horn of Valor gives allies a 50% damage boost.

 

Also, I have a shield that provides guard on hit, which is super helpful.

 

 

If you do decide to try this build on perilous, would be interested to hear how it goes.

[tbxvividos]

That's pretty much the standard templar build.

There's a blue axe that explodes enemies on kill for extra lols

[Drasca]

Survival plan for perilous:
Step 1: Don't die.

/end steps

 

In all seriousness a level 1 keeper with zero equipment can play perilous effectively. A level 20 fully specced for support would do better, but either does not need any gear for their skills that do not depend on weapon damage.
