Urgent help!!!

[AthenaX]

Hello guys, i've stopped playing Atlantica for a while because my build was stuffed up. I recently go back to it and wanted to reformat my build, mainly for PVP. Im moving away from this DMF.. stun formation as its so damn.. identical. I dont know if there is major changes in PVP (from the new mercs) but if you could critisize this formation it would be great! (Im a music main)

:malehero::spt::vik:
:can::arc::pra:
:inv::mnk::exo:

Thinking of changing it into a mixture of spike/dot and a slight stun pressure.
What do you think?
or should I swap the pirate for a prophet or get rid of something else to have combination of spartan and pirate?

im looking for a fresh new build, how about the new mercs, would they fit in? (Paganini Guitarist lady?)

Thanks! i need your suggestions and tips on what to do :(

frontline musi main with no oracle, no DMF = suicide.

main-spartan-N.vik
cannon-oracle-pirate
exo-monk-inventor

have you tried the above?

I actually havnt, cause i didnt have a healer lol :P
Im lvl 100 just now and just got back into a team. I've been asking people if pirate was good but was getting a lot of bad feed back on it.. ( i havnt really seen pirate in action to be honest) .

I think you're right, Music without healer in the front is suicidal and DMF.
I'll try the below team, but some question I have is:

1/ without archer, would damage output be even more reduced? (pirate is melee and cannot chase mercs)

2/ how would you use a pirate in the team you suggested? (blood vengence looks deadly~)

3/ Is Jani stronger than archer in every way? (as I was browsing forum :P)

4/ Would it work if i had no oracle/dmf and rotate between exo and main around? (i know you said no oracle is dangerous, but im worried about damage output)



Random Question: can Minstrel be replacement of a DMF? It's salvation skill can remove mana seal from exo's I presume? (.. just my assumption)



Thanks!! ^_^

- Pirate is the best in terms of single target damage. but thats about it. dark archer has more flexibility in reaching backrow and having a useful skill (silence).

I think you're right, Music without healer in the front is suicidal and DMF.

1/ without archer, would damage output be even more reduced? (pirate is melee and cannot chase mercs)

- your damage output isn't reduced, you just missed out on 1 merc that can reach backline.

2/ how would you use a pirate in the team you suggested? (blood vengence looks deadly~)

- vengeance was nerfed. pew pew. if a pirate scores 2 hits and toxic sword proc occurs, it hurts more than vengeance. spartan+pirate to spike frontline while the ranged mercs apply stun pressure.

3/ Is Jani stronger than archer in every way? (as I was browsing forum :P)

- in terms of total damage, yes. but the archer can hit a ranged merc harder than jani can.

its like comparing spartan and pirate. the spartan can do more damage overall as he can hit one merc behind him, but in terms of damage to that one unfortunate frontliner, the pirate hurts more.

4/ Would it work if i had no oracle/dmf and rotate between exo and main around? (i know you said no oracle is dangerous, but im worried about damage output)

- I did get to watch a cannonM with 1 monk and minstrel with no healer. he was frontline.

his opponent waited until jani had over 200AP. in one turn, mana seal + jani attackx2 + spartanx2 = 80% HP gone. sure, he could remove the mana seal after that, but the damage was already done. his opponent proceeded to snipe him down with bowM+hwarang. DEAD cannonM.

you might as well start with exo in front, and dun even try to put ur main up front.

Random Question: can Minstrel be replacement of a DMF? It's salvation skill can remove mana seal from exo's I presume?

- sorta yes. she is like the HG half of monk. yes salvation removes EVERY SINGLE skill on a merc (be it mana seal, warcry, or even HG itself).

Thanks heaps Loksley!
you totally answered my question. So for my :pra: I've got to decide between blood vengence and crimson blade.

I will add a :ora: to the team for heal and maintain rotation between main and exo. I'll stick with the formation you suggested!

thanks again ^^
