Title: CRPG IS LIVE! wat build u still play?
Post by: WITCHCRAFT on January 16, 2017, 07:47:30 am
I haven't played in many months, but the last few days there have been 20+ people on NA 1 when I have time to play. Item requirement changes have forced me to respec two of my characters. I'm curious what everyone else is playing, and will share my current builds.

My Xbow character was built for old +3 Crossbow with some 1H WPF and 7 PS. Crossbow has a lower STR requirement than last time I played, so I was able to switch to an AGI heavy build. Next level, I will have 27 AGI. My reload speed and 1H WPF are much higher. My armor were all light weight low STR requirement, so now I have crazy move speed compared to before. I have only 6 PS now, but that is plenty to do damage with +3 Sai for my 1H weapon.

My 2H char had 15 STR and set of +3 Mongolian armor from the newest item sets. Some of his armor was changed to 19 STR req, so I had to respec him to wear his gear. I miss my old super AGI build with Flambard and Bar Mace +3, but with 19 STR and rest dumped in AGI he is still pretty good.

My main who is lvl 35 working to 36 retire is 27/15. While playing Viking Conquest DLC single player, I have gotten used to fast AGI builds with just enough STR for good Power Throw / Power Strike. Going back to a 27/15 CRPG char feels so awful slow in movement. Attack speed is just fine, even with something slow like Long Maul +3. It is painful to slowly creep toward flag spawns or keep up with my team.

Before CRPG "died" I was playing an 18/24 archer on my alt. She is currently 18/24 1H with shield. I still have +3 arrows and bow. Is it worth respeccing to archer build? Which is currently OP/favored, STR or AGI focus archer build?

I am so excited to see people on the servers again. I just feel so out of touch with the current "meta" if there even is one anymore. What do you feel is OP? An important part of the current meta is that server population is lower than in the past. What works better now? What should I avoid? AGI crossbow build feels like "good old times" with fantastic reload speed and high athletics/melee WPF when you have to fight close quarters.

36/6 1H/shield with 12IF and 12PS to pound your ass.

30/18 triple crossbow with only IF for maximum annoyance.

24/18 2H with gr8 maul and snowflakes

And some more alts. Most of these aren't lvl 34 yet, so they haven't reached their full potential. If I hadn't deleted nearly (or over) 200 of my alts, I'd still have builds like 3/45 (or so) short bow machine gun and 3/?? wooden 2H sword molester.

30/21 10 PS 7 Riding build is currently my favourite.
Put all your wpf on polearm and use any weapon you want, I get full plate, a great lance and a plated charger, one of the most troll and surprisingly efficient builds I've done in a while, your footworks are unpredictable,almost immune to cut damage(except that retarded swordstaff thingy) and easy to land kicks if you're addicted to pressing E all the time like me. But there is a chance of getting cancer from spammy shit.

Playing the same build I was playing the 3 last month before mod died

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class: One hand Agile infantry

Gear:
-Long Espada Eslavona (doesn't have to be +3 bonus stop at +2) (edit: oh wait they fixed it)
-European Lance
-Any medium armor kit will do

Skill Point: Level 36

Strength: 24
Agility: 21

One Handed:170wp

Weapon Master: 7
Athletic: 7
 Riding: 0 
Iron Flesh: 7 
Shield: 0 
Horse Archery: 0 
Power Strike: 8 
Power Draw: 0 
Power Throw: 0 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Explanation:
The whole build is based on abusing the thrust since it as the same range as a conventional 2h plus the one hand animation give you even more range with your right arm so your range is almost or even with a 115length 2H. So... why using a one hand instead of a 2h with more range? Well I like that the weapon is faster than a 2h and that you glance less. Sure the swing is not so good but people expect you to thrust all day so it's often free damage when you happen to swing.
You also have an European Lance to get rid of those cancer cavalry or just to laugh at someone becoming a unicorn.
It's not better than any 2h or polearm build but it helped me getting way better at the game because I had to try harder.

Horse Archer, Stone thrower...I'm dedicated to builds that are annoying, that's the primary mission, efficiency is non-important as long as the other guy is angry  :lol:

the one san made in 2014 works, but the only link that works is this direct download and his github download. you need to dl it to your comp, extract it, then run the calc.html file.
Direct download: https://codeload.github.com/smj72/cRPG-Toolkit/zip/master

http://forum.melee.org/beginner's-help-and-guides/min-max-simulator-updated/

btw whats up kadeth u pimp. make a trade for your +3 varangos plate if youre playing again.

This one is still accurate as well:
http://www.poul.pl/index.php/download/file/2-crpg-character-builder
Certificate's out of date, so antiviruses might flail their arms around, but it's good.

Also, on topic: I was 27/18 with some hybrid wpf, but I'm currently reverting back to my old 13/33 pure pike greatness.
Because pike.
