if you have the goods, you could forego CRIT and use HS, IB and SB instead (in that order).

I tested Storm Blast damage on eggs and it does the same damage as IB with my +12 ORC, +13 Hero Plate and Brooch of Hero.

two Beelzebubs and DEX enchants on ORC will fasten SB cast time by a lot.

also, if you proc Bear Power, SB will do monster damage.. pretty much like a nuke.

[blackCROSSCY]

It's okay DPS but not really that high since its still just one cast a second. It's lower than new CRIT RK (especially in frenzy or additional CS burst) and any form of RG and yet faces additional weakness from agi-up monsters. Spamming IB+storm blast is preferably better in WOE since its 2 big aoe damage that you can chain cast (the burst matters more than consistent dps over say 10seconds). Also, you can keep using shield and not be dependent on buffs.

 

Still, the DPS is good enough so if you really like the playstyle you can still go ahead. I would suggest using Temporal ring+ BP boots for another 40STR if you would like to play the IB+Stormblast combo.

the same items and etc that were used prior to the update can still be used, the only difference is that now autoattacks do 2~3x the previous damage on average, and you can carry more runes.

[bielzinpk]

Crit should be the default build for physical RK now (unless the focus is on WOE). STR build needs to wait for the illusion Abyss update to allow 1sec CD Hundred Spears; otherwise the DPS for single target is too low due to high cooldowns on both HS and IB.

 

However, it still makes use of the same AOE skill for mob clearing, IB+BB (sometimes storm blast), so you can add the STR part of your build first for faster leveling early. (just aim to have 193 ASPD+ 120LUK at the time you want to start MVPing).

 

In the case of budget build, it is hard to suggest one without knowing what you mean by budget (below 1B? 100M? 3B?), since iRO has so many items now due to 30 OCP boxes already.

 

Yeah the budget thing got a bit confusing, what i meant was like the absolute minimal gear to make the build work.

 

It's hard to actually test without the sakray but i tried making the cheapest i could in the calculator and i immediately ran into 2 problems, crit rate and aspd. The gambler set seems to fit right in but it's a piece of gear that isn't really usable outside of crit builds. 

 

What i wonder though if just investing in that can make the build work or will it need more heavier investments like a Temporal Ring to make it usable.

 

What i tried to put on calculator was:

 

Snake Head

Idk MBTA +9?

Violet Fear with Golem and AK / Sharp 2 and anything that comes together

Temp Luk AD4

Idk what garment to put

Luminous Blue Stone 

Ring of Hero

 

I'd prefer if i could share gear with a RC GX.

[awesomegeek]

I have essence LUK3 if you like. For cheap.

+8 Skin of Ladon of Petal for garment maybe.

[blackCROSSCY]

If you want to share with your RC gx, use a skin of ladon +8. It gives a lot of ATK.

 

While it won't do as much damage as +9 Fatal10 FAW for crit damage, the large ATK boost still adds quite a bit plus it helps you do good IB/BB damage. If RC gx is your focus, slot it with wakwak/rockridge cramp card, otherwise slot with petal card to maximise crit damage..

[MoyuZ777]

Magic Essence 5 Rune circlet would give you the ability to forgo 120 dex, and then you can focus on other stats for the physical/crit build, but still have DB for clearing floors with Rune Circlet and ME 5. This would be a budget build but a very specific hybrid build, only for those who are really serious about RK because of the amount of investment needed into that one gear.

its literally on first page...

Depends on equip of your choice. (int if going with sera, str+luk if mob, agi+vit if imperial set+ladon)

For vit, just enough so that you build up resistance to status effect which is 100~ in total (main+bonus)

sorry thanks a lot

Question, why i have seen RTEs with archer enchants and kingbird cards?

Which build they are using it?

[blackCROSSCY]

they are using it on their DB RK, and are basically sharing the RTE with a gene or some other class that can use ranged skills. Its not optimal because RTE has slow aspd, but for those that need to share equip, they probably don have what it takes to spam DB on the spot anyway- so the weapon choice doesnt affect them. They just need the 40% ranged damage on any weapon.

Quick question, enchant blade adds dps to all physical skills or just to autoattacks?

apparently I wrote in the wrong forum , this time my question was right, now my DB RK are in level 168, when I reached the final level I planned to reset the RK to the physical type
 The stat I planned using the ro calculator:
str 120
vit 120
agi 90
dex 80
int 38
luk 30

what according to you guys..because the stat that I planned seems unusual, please give me input..?

Hi I have a question about item for Physical and crit build

For IB weapon what the best weapon. RTE or gele set If put true syren  (Leveling until End game)

 

Element from IB is fire or normal attack?

In the case of leveling at scaraba. fire element is no need right?

I'll build IB and crit without hundred spear and gele set is interested because of effect 50% boss wind water fish type
and I can switch to cri item for long fight.
 

[Morning12345]

Ignition break is force neutral. If you level at scaraba RTE with 3 True Seyren would be really good. I wouldn't recommend IB at all since its trash skill compare to dragon breath. You can probably level 5 times as fast if you can get in a bio4 party if you got wealth for db build.

[Ashuckel]

No it is not

[Morning12345]

neutral/force neutral whatever, still a crap skill compare to what other classes got

[Ashuckel]

no it isn't.

It's neutral on its own and can be endowed, you should endow it with fire not only for the elemental damage bonus on earth monsters but for the skill's bonus too when it is endowed with fire.

 

If you use an RTE, you'll be fine, if you use a gelerdria (which is very nice since it has bonus damage to insects if you combo it with the storm stone) you will want to use a fire endow/convert/mild wind. 

 

Also remember that the closer the enemy is to you, the more damage IB does. 

[Morning12345]

no it isn't.

 

yes it is.
