Deadly Rock Thrower

I want my main character to be a rock thrower. I KIDD YOU NOT! Yes, I'm troll & that's the point.

Imagine what hilarity I would ensue if I had a threatening Rock Thrower...

Help me accomplish my goal of becoming the most threatening rock thrower...

You'll need high PT to do any damage with stones. Frug is the best person I know to ask about this although there is another that uses smoke bombs lulz.

But basically you'll need at least 8 PT or so to do well with stones. High str char.

I'd suggest high athletics, so you can backpedal and toss rocks. But also use the agility to get high weapons master and split between throwing and 1h. Melee rocks are the fastest weapon in the game. Don't forget your powerstrike too!

irl something shorted on the shuttle and laika overheated and died within a few hours of liftoff and for a brief while one could look up to the stars and see a light shooting across the sky that was actually a warm dog corpse slingshoting about the earth at thousands of miles per hour which was arguably humanity's greatest achievement so far

This is the build I use right now, but if you don't have Masterwork Stones I would recommend going with high strength like 27/12 or 30/9 (Maxing PT and ATH and putting all weapon proficiency into throwing.)

Higher agility build like 12/27 or 15/24 also work with Masterwork Stones, but I don't think they would work with regular ones with just 11b.

This is just what I do though, feel free to experiment and create your own style of stone throwing.

Try to watch Frug play; i've seen him top scoreboard with stones. It's not a 'troll' build they way he plays it. Lots of jump throws to the head, he can basically stunlock you thanks to the high rate of fire, and loomed stones do solid damage.

10 PS and beat people to death with Melee stones and chambers on siege is best.

:D

I've done a gen of smoke bomb throwing/rock throwing

smoke bomb throwing is the true troll art, sadly their high weight makes escape difficult (no s on escape because you can only escape once... never twice)

I was 30/9 with max wm, pt, ath and the rest in ps I was wearing a kaftan and mostly played on siege playing the human ballista

It was awesome, but I'd recommend 27/12 or 24/15 if you want a more balanced and battle build.
So the new response to ranged ragers is not "get a shield", it is "learn to chamber ranged nub!"

Note : the black armor had 60 body armor and I didnt even got headshot..

Why Power Strike, Fruggy? Just to beat up people with the stones in melee?
For while the fire in the heart of a single Remnant still burns... can Stratia truly have fallen?

yeah. Very much yes.

As someone who did stone throwing for like 2 years, Stone throwing is really subpar if you don't have +3 stones. Like, your damage is low low low. It really sucks. But +3 stones raise the base damage enough, so that PT really gets it so you **can** kill people.
Also, I have declared myself #1 NA hybrid thrower
Formerly known as Marathon.
As an NA admin, I am the most laid back and concerned with the ~fun of the game~ above all other factors. I've also been super inactive since Summer 2012. University takes most of my time, but I still find some time to play when i can.
