[Tuanie]

i want to mix in both build, i know it could back fire on me but we will see.


:exo::swm::swm:
?????????? :witc::malehero:
:ora::mnk::pro:


was thinking putting a :arc: in the "?????" spot, but well see


well be getting my my oracle soon, but thats what it will look like until i get my :lak:

**not a fan of artillerist


what would you change?
and tips on making it better formation.


also do princess buff staff and bow? O_o

[Keats]

princess buff only ranged (bow, gun, arty) not staff

but before answering, tell us if you're planning to pve or pvp

[Tuanie]

i tho so, my princess is lvl 51 and is sitting in the merc room for awhile now T.T"


pvp

[Keats]

I think you have too much concentrated power, i mean single ennemy attack to be effective in pvp : while you kill 1 merc the opponent would have weakened all your team
I'd rather do something like that :
:lak::witc::exo:
:spm::malehero::spm:
:ora::pro::mnk:

You lose a little the tank but you gain nice dmg
I can't find a decent build in pvp with a lot of tanks :/
You could put another swordsman in ?? slot and spam fire sword on a cible each turn, all merc have hard time dealing with 4-5 fire sword

Maybe a viking and bt in midrow. They can freeze, or you can seth will and they'll do massive damage. Maybe a formation like this...

:exo::witc::lak:
:malehero::bst::vik:
:mnk::ora::pro:

You'll have plenty of tanks still to rotate with, you have meteor damage with witch, and if you seth will midrow it will take down their frontrow so fast.

If you don't seth you can still freeze/ beast summon for more aoe pressure.

[Tuanie]

seems good, but i'm far from my LK

Jimsta i might try your build. but wont a tank just run pass the witch?
and if a axe he can hit 3 of my middle guy. ???

i want to work more long distance, etc. bow/prophet.


i like the tanking idea of seth will but i just want more range to take scroll away. so maybe replace LK with a bow?

and kinda sad that non of you really put the swornd mercs in the build. i adore my swords lol

The point of the witch in the front is less magic damage when they spam skills.

The point of the witch in the front is less magic damage when they spam skills.

And prevents some axe damage

[Marisa the Rainmaker]

If you're preferential to having ranged, try this build:

:malehero::bst::lak:
:inv::jan::gun:
:mnk::ora::exo:

This is a basic will gunner build. Though it's usually preferable if you have an axe, bow, or cannon main, you can tank with the sword main and switch to exorcist as he gets damaged, while sethed gunners work their way through the enemy lines.

Otherwise, another idea would be to get a spear build, except replace one of your spears for a gunner:

:exo::witc::lak:
:spm::malehero::gun:
:ora::pro::mnk:

This way, you can reach to the last row and shoot down silence scrolls while still maintaining the reach of spears (if not the sheer damage).

[LostCause]

Like some had said you have too many single target dmg merc and that mind hinder you to be very effective later on in pvp. Might want to add maybe a viking or Bt for the added dmg. If you are going to get a spear try to get a pair at least as one spear is usually not very effective alone.
