Idk what a good hoplite build is any suggestions?
-
try out with stf before doing it with a real char.
18/21
7ath
6ps
5shield
rest in wm
try some shields with different spears: ashwood pike, war spear, red tassel spear
if you want a 1h as side arm, get some fast one due to low wpf
alternative is 15/24, but imo it is to low str with lvl 30. corsair got 15/27 afaik, but his speed bonus is doing the damage for him (hes lvl 35 tho) :)
-
I'll use this build myself.
Gonna be look like this with lvl 30
18/21
7wm
7ath
6ps
3shield
140wpf in 1h AND Pole (123/124 with bonus)
If you want to go high lvl, I would suggest 21/21 at lvl 33 or stay at 18/21 and try to max shield/IF.

Why do I need 1h if im going polearm hoplite?
-
Because you should carry a 1h as a backup weapon, hoplite a are a support class, with only 1d attack and a long weapon that isn't useful in tight quarters.
Of course you can go pure pole hoplite, and grab a 4d pole like the shortened spear

Cuz the new patch want YOU TO DO THAT!!
It gives you 17 and 16 bonus wpf in 1h and polearm. And having an 1h sideweapon with high wpf is wonderful.
(Or you can just go 170 polearm wpf, that's also ok :))
-
I was surprised you dident say warhammer I am proud of you clock
-
hmm ill use a shortened spear for backup sound good?
-
You should try fighting without shield but with an 2d polearm like awlpike, ashwood pike
when you are good enough with this you can try to be pure hoplite.
Also War Spear is 4d and got a high speed. I tried 21/18 with my STF yesterday and with a war spear. worked fine for me and you can just switch from 1d holpite to 4d polearm spammer :D
