strategy is defined as: "the art of devising or employing plans or stratagems toward a goal." ~merriam webster dictionary
i dont mind when people spam one stat, or if someone copies my build( would be so pro if that happened). the Thing is as "brainless" as you may think these builds are, they win. And people who use those builds don't care if it is "original" or not. People tend to go with builds that work in this game. Now you may be content with yourself in using a build that is only partly original and lose, that's fine. and if you can make a balanced stat build that wins 99% of the time, congratulations. but that does not mean that everyone else is an idiot that uses another build that works just because it is formed from the use of one main stat. People also seem to claim to think there is no strategy in using a strength build. this is a completely false statement. quote:
Strike + Gun + offensive skills; Zerker, DS, Bludgeon
yes we use those skills , why? because they improve with strength. it would be noobish to have 100 strength and 10 dex , then use multi-shot and expect it to do some damage, What other skills do you expect us to use? plasma bolt? the problem half the time when people make claims like this is because they lose to a strength build more than wanted. And instead of changing to a build that counters the majority, or using a strength build themselves. they decide to stick with their current build instead of adapting.. then they get all bent out of shape because they choose not to find a counter build. Others just take too much pride in their builds when they have a build that has a high percentage and is more complicated. But by definition of a strategy, may i remind you, it has nothing to do with complications. If you master and devise a complicated build that works, good for you! but that does not make everyone else who choose a more simpler route any less smart than yourself. Some people simply just choose to go the simple way, because its fast and efficient.
so in conclusion i'll say this
a good merc build in omega:
First, get good strength, high health, and moderate dex( becuase dex is lowered for everyone your less likely to be blocked)
Second, use mual becuase it has no warm up and it ignores %20 defense plus a chance to stun (support lowwered stun chance higher)
Third, use berserker because at max it can do 90% more damage than a normal strike and on rage can do massive damage
Fourth, if blocked, stuned, or emp your best chances to survive long enough to win would be to use intimidate lowering multiple sources of damage.
MOST people saw this strategy and deemed it usable in the levels closer to the level cap ( because before omega it was not as popular in these levels, and was mainly used in the beginner levels for 1vs1)~
strength builds are strategies, even if they are not complicated to you.
strategy: the art of devising or employing plans or stratagems toward a goal
the goal being to win
and the plans or course of action would be your build, which was devised, by either you or who ever made it.
strength builds are strategies...
