Seriously. The high dragon is still bugged and not working with some character skills. That needs to be near top of the to-do list, I say.

 

Especially the killer set bug.

NO LUKE NO. Take a look at your data you gather from the game instead of relying on observations from overpromoted people.

I'm afraid that the only people remain that still play this game are the overpromoted bunch. So, it looks like it might just continue like it is. At least those people will stay. All the rest, casual and whatever, can go to .... (I leave that to your imagination). So, data would not help. I'd hate to predict what happens next but chances are that reaver will be nerfed back to where she were and the all mighty Cillian will get some decent buffs which will make a lot of players happy. :lol:

For the Arcane Warrior, I just want Spirit Blade to be a good skill. Right now, it's mediocre. It is usable, but in most situations having Fade/Frost Step in its place is more beneficial.

I find Spirit Blade useful on nightmare because of the large number of enemies spamming barrier and guard. That bonus bit of damage may not look like much but it's definitely noticeable especially against creatures that spam those abilities. (Looks over at the Pride Demon that has become a bigger annoyance than the Despair Demon.)

Only thing I saw on heartbreaker difficulty was a mook doing a half screen crushing leap. After that, I exited to main menu....


Lol. No thanks. I'll leave heartbreaker to our god.

She's a paper tissue on Nightmare (unless she has a barrier pony ofc). Anyone who says otherwise please drop your number of promotions in the post. Necromancer is just... DON'T BRING HER TO NM OKAY GUYS.

 

LOL you really need to play around me more. Warhorn + CR owns NM.

 

Necromancer's fantastic in NM, as she's constantly self rezzing especially with simulcrum boosted. With cd's reset via simulcrum, you can always cast spirit mark, and self-rez with a pet. The rest is doing what necro's do--panicking, freezing, blowing stuff up, and spreading conditions everywhere.

Shhhhh. There is no killer set bug. Continuous 3.4k animation-cancelled auto attacks are perfectly normal for someone as awesome as ZITHER!

Always up for games unless I am already in a full lobby. However, don't get me wrong but you cannot really feel like how the Reaver is on NM with 30 points in Con. Sure, I agree, Warhorn + CR are amazing, and that's what I've always been using. However, 3 hits + lag and you're dead. Very very dead. The necromancer is the same. If she manages to accidentally get any aggro (she doesn't have Guardian spirit), she is dead so qucikly. Yes, she is a great damage dealer and she fares well in teams that can barrier her.

3 hits? Sheesh you're lucky I'm used to being dead in one or two when I started with Reaver. One wrong move, and die. No more arrow of doom from enemy marksmen.

 

 

Necro: Who cares if you go down if you get back up again?

I have 28 points in con and I wreck NM with Reaver. Read Sun Zhus Art of Reaver and you will not be so out of your depth.

Today I played with a player whose stat is not very strong, we did NM FC runs with my friends. He played very smart stayed at my side as I played Keeper, ran out when he had barrier, did 3 runs start at level 6. The promotions allow you to play more aggressive but Reaver is totally ready for NM even with modest promotions.

She is amazing with a barrier pony. I said that from the start.

Are you on PC? Let's play one game together, on the one condition that you never get a barrier the whole match.

 

However, that will be totally counterproductive. I just said that by herself, with no barrier, she is a paper tissue on NM with lower promotions. Which is absolutely true. But in a good team of various chars that plays together smartly, she will wreck things. Those are two seperate facts that can exist in the same universe. :rolleyes:

Agreed.  Hey there are the few totally elite players out that that could play the class probably on any difficulty with any amount of promotions.  I assume you have to have a perfect feel as to when or when not to use rage.  All I know is through the vast number of games I've played as a reaver and watched others.  The class is totally dominant to a point but after a certain point they die very fast.  They also are very equipment dependent.

Thanks for the advice everyone.
I couldn't get round the first corner playing as Katari or Izzy.
Switched to Reaver and smashed my way to Hakkon's Valor.
Now DR crits for 6k+

Who isn't without a barrier? The lego? (was designed to be), Templar? (she needs barrier since wombo/combo can't clear it), Katari? (his guard is better but those red lyrium bolts will stop his charge in its tracks), Avvar (same as Katari), AW? (undying one), Elementalist? (Lot of NM are resistant to fire so good for CC), Barrier monkeys need DPS otherwise they get overwhelmed. The idea of NM is co-op play. Grab a team and play like it should be tank, dps, support etc. and have fun

I haven't played much of the new stuff beyond NM FC Frost Dragon (the new FBWGG?).

I experimented with a few kits and I found that moar damage is the way to go now. Two kits that have been able to bring NM difficulty virtually down to Perilous level for me were the Avvar and the Reaver - using traditional, well established optimal builds, lots of damage boosts and HoK. I got the Hakkon 2h sword kinda early on, but the Dragon Items as well as the new added items should provide very good results.

The Archer of course remains the best Dragon killer so having one in the team helps a lot in all cases.

I and my friends used a few mages and we didn't feel like the damage scaled well enough from Peri to NM. Though I haven't experiment extensively enough, particularly with the new weapons to give a solid opinion on them.
