Going to change into Bow main!

[Jimsta]

Ok, so I know that 90% of builds are axe main, but I've been thinking about this alot and starting to find out ways to counter them...
I plan a stun formation.

:spm::bst::spm:
:malehero::can::mnk:
:mnk::exo::inv:

Ok, what I plan on doing is constant silence on exo and if there's witches/vikings on that row the more the marrier.

Now, if they try to hg the silenced row I can cause a back stun with my cannon(I'll be focus firing back their). I'll also be attacking front/mid row with my other chars.

My formation isn't really based on high damage, but for stunning half their team the whole game and mana sealing when they get off...

With 2 monks I can awaken/hg important rows and if my silence does get off their exo I can still hg 1 monk making mana seal quite useless.


Havn't tested it yet but I've seen other people do it well. Currently leveling up my mercs that I need for this build to work. :D

2 immediate problems I see with this:

Dont count on always being able to silence exo. Youre not the only one who backlines him.

Lack of a healer and witch makes your lines very vulnerable to getting smashed opened by seth & aoes, although aoes can somewhat be mitigated if you manage to keep HG on 2/3 of your rows.

Yea about the exo in back row thing I know I can't silence him but... Even if they do have a cannon type I can hg my mid row (unless they target that one) and awaken with the other one. If he still mana seals I can hg the bottom row.

As for the aoe well...I'm planning on using this formation when I'm all lvl 100s with decent equips. I've seen level 100's tank for a decent round and if they do get serisouly injured I could always swap with exo for a round or two.

But by then I'll most likey have them stunned/not worry about stun (thats what I'm hoping)

iffy on the spear frontline...althought it is quite powerful...

No healer or prophet makes me nervous for that frontline, with very squishy stuff behind.
