Hi everyone,

I have just started playing requiem and i have been looking at guides/skill builds, however some seem to be out of date or include skills such as "rush" etc for defenders that seem not to exist??

I was wondering could someone please help me or provide me with a link to a skill build to defenders that is up to date, that is pvp but is has a balance of pve that can allow me to play solo too.

And lastly i am a little confused about "upgrading your mastery in weapons", e.g. in swords etc?

Or just some general advice relating to the class will be well appreciated

Thanks

there. make yur own builds:)
the 1 handed weapon mastery makes your damage bigger, nothing to be confused, but only works on 1 handed axe/sword/bludgeon
general advice? reinforced jewelry and depends AA or SS build:)

ahh ok thanks for the help, so where do you upgrade your mastery?

lvl 50+ when you have your second job you will have passive skill:)

Protectors are tanks! They can take punishment. I have seen more Commanders going hybrid. It's a nice mix of dmg and def. Either one is going to be expensive or tedious build. Just have fun with it.

Commander is the pvp tank.

Protector is the pve tank.(There are some PvP prots but well.. your mainly only a distraction lol)

Hybrid is going nice, but you could go solid SS or AA.(Yes very possible for commanders to do very very decent AA dmg(they too can break the 1k AA crit + the 1 hand axe or sword gives you a fast swing.))

For AA commander, go 72 glorious.(Those who have s1 brilliant are set as well)

For SS commander go 65 foc, 72 brilliant or 75 set.

Hybrid go 75 set only.(Its an easy mode set, so you can get STR+Con from it easily.)

Like Alexito said, go to Kruxena.com to make a build, or you can ask a veteran commander to help you make a build(Depending which way you go).

Figured i would update:

Armor:
S1 Seamless Polar 5/6 set (still looking for helm) (Each piece add's 1% block!)
S1 Essence of Iron Earrings (23 Con base w/ 2% block) X 2 enchanted with S1 Ion con/hp's
S1 Kushephoon's Sword w/ 6/6 with S1 30 con xeons
S1 Rounderoot Egis Shield (has 4/6/-2 (30 hp xeons)

S2 Determined Willingness Bracelet +15 w/ 4/7 x 2con/30 hp ion xeons ( I am looking for another bracelet)

Adding as soon as i can get:
S2 Navy Steel Belt
S2 Pearl of Waves (If it's Con based) Otherwise Fire Drangon Molar

I hate to admit it but i might have to use S2 SL-ID rings (I need Mnd like others mention)

Once i get the other Jewelry and S1 Polar helm (if i can get it i will go to next best thing S2 Glorious)

I am on the fence on either Alosa or Torn Teddy.
Teddy has more HP/CON but no defense. (If i can cap defense with gear Teddy is the better choice and it's cheaper)
Costume,Charm, Pet, etc and anything that pushes my Con up!

Block % is essential, block rate also plays a roll
Block % do or don't get hit
Block rate is dmg reduced when hit (Doesn't take so much HP when hit)
Defense (I would say it's a 50/50 gear and skills)
Con well it's a given the more the better!
I am still working out the best way to cap out defense using the least DNA and Skills. I have heard several variations of this
One given is maxing taunts lol.
Keep in mind it has taken me a good amount of time to find the items i have.
