NAKED BUILD!

[Joseph Porta]

2 words: archery gay

[Commodore_Axephante]

I have a naked alt that's 27/12 that uses a iron staff. It kicks ass. I might have gone 24/15 for more ath but I wanted more PS to kill things faster since I don't want extended fights when I'm naked.

There aught to be a naked clan.

[Inglorious]

There was temporarily. We brought the idea over from mount & gladius.

I was in the naked fanatics. Check the steam profile    But we took it even further and formed "The Hoplites" where for a good 2 months we ran around with no chest armor, no boots, a shield, a spartan helm, and a spear.

To not get shot by archers you resort to...throwing? What.

If you are going to be naked, bring a shield. I heard it stops arrows every now and then and is a real turn off when archers are looking for someone to shoot.

Other than that, great maul is fine. You are naked so you will be fast.

Leeching is not having a weapon, not having armor is usually fine.

[Commodore_Axephante]

No way, there was a clan called the Naked Fanatics? I missed the party.

As for archers, I'm pretty good at dodging when I can see who's shooting at me. It's sneak shots and shots when I'm climbing stairs/ladders that get me. But no, there is no real contingency plan there.

[Cyclopsided]

The fast naked great maul build is a thing. Nobody even posted it surprisingly.

well, here it is:

Strength requirement for great maul, 7 athletics, and the most wpf to accompany at level 30 possible.
However, this is only good for a skip the fun character... I would not play it as my main.

20 str? thats just a waste of attributes

[Zanze]

Until you notice you now have a freaking GREAT MAUL and 7 athletics.

[slimpyman]

you can already abandon that idea.


playing naked = leeching = banable =  NOT FUN
i guess you dont want to be banned from the servers because you have a new build and didnt know the rules yet. I dont think there is  a single server where you are allowed to play naked. all admins and players will instantly start to warn/kick/ban you.

dude you can play naked. its the weapon that matters.   the admins get pissed if you spawn without weapons.

[Muki]

This holds true

Not too sure about admins going on a kicking/banning spree just because your nude. As long they spawn with a weapon and fight it's fine.

This build after all is just min-maxing

[IR_Kuoin]

If you want to be naked, and be able to chase archers and defend yourself from the 1 hit that can take your life, I suggest going steelpick with cavalry round shield, perhaps a 12/21+ /12/24+ build. If you get a mw steelpick its even more damaging.

[BlueKnight]

Now here's the kicker - I want to use the Great Maul. Seems the quickest tool to get the job done. But, I don't want to be completely defenseless when charging an archer, so... a little throwing?

You will be surprised how many hit's you will need to kill an enemy. I would rather suggest 1 of the new crazy 2h cutting axes (like great axe) or classic mornigstar. With 7 PS and Mighty Great Maul I was killing in 2 or 3 hits (siege and rather 3 than 2 and those were pure hits, not crush through). Take something faster but with good damage. Great Bardiche is awesome either.

[Commodore_Axephante]

Yeah, as the game has come along (or, as I've learned the play it) I've come to learn the value of non-crushthrough weaponry.

Still curious about low-prof throwing, though. Anyone played with it?

Finally, random question while I've got a thread dedicated to my own ramblings - is there a cap of 10 on each skill?

[no_rules_just_play]

no, you can go as high as you want i think. i have played a 3/39 build and you can get 13 athletics/wm/shieldskill. same goes for 39/3

[Commodore_Axephante]

Alright team, what do you think of THIS?!

NAKED FANATIC at Level 33 (that's my plan - no retiring for this maniac. Hopefully after a naked career I'll be able to buy looms with pure GP).

Strength:        36
Agility:          9

Skill to attr:   14

Ironflash:        0
Power Strike:    12
Athletics:        3
Riding:           2 (for a Sumter to get to the action faster - not for use in combat)
Weapon Master:    3

Polearm prof 135.

Will use a polearm - probably the Long War Axe, since I'll be doing enough damage that I won't need its bigger cousin, and would rather have the 1 point of speed.

THOUGHTS?
