Silver Sky Magician -> Unique Builds Thread (1/5/2016 9:58:12)

Hi all, this thread is for players to share unique builds that work decently well so that others can try them out and be encouraged to create their own innovative builds. Please use the following example as a template:

Here's a tech-support CH build that works surprisingly well for me:

Level 40 (rank 11) CH

HP: 962
EP: 652
STR: 19
DEX: 19 + 33
TECH: 85 + 33
SUPP: 95 + 13

Skills:

Level 9 Plasma Grenade
Max Static Charge
Level 9 Venom Strike
Level 7 Massacre
Level 3 Malfunction
Level 1 EMP
Level 1 Field Medic
Level 1 Defense Matrix
Level 1 Cheap Shot

Items:

Physical Claws + Frost Shards core + Lucky Strike core
Azrael's Anguish (E) + Aim Assist core
Frozen Fury Annihilator (E) + Stun Blast core
Cyber Yeti
Generator Core (250 HP, 90 EP i.e. 100 DEF, 20 RES) + Critical Heal

Notes:

This build performs well against BMs, dex BHs and 5 focus TLMs. It's weak against more conventional support builds, but the high tech and thus deflection chance keeps it competitive against these builds. STR builds pose the greatest threat to this build, though Plasma Grenade's stun, naturally high crit chances and Cyber Yeti can help. Overall win rate is lower than my usual 5 focus build, but on the other hand I get much faster wins. Very fun to use for a while, you can easily recoup retrain costs if you're already a CH. No fixed strategy, pretty versatile depending on the situation.

It might be better to use the Critical passive cores instead of the ones above, since you'll be doing 30 damage whether you hit with strike or not, and since the high tech means that the chances of being deflected are quite low.

SouL Prisoner -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/6/2016 9:05:25)

Hmmmm That's something different. Looking for a TM build though :/




Foulman -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/6/2016 9:43:39)

SouL Prisoner, use this: 1100 HP, 43+13 STR and equal Res/Def. No Support. Max Assim, Max BB, level 1 Firescythe, level 1 Bludgeon, level 1 heal, about level 6 Technician, level 3 Defense Matrix and put the rest somewhere else, like mid level Plasma Bolt/Plasma Rain. Cores are:Piston Punch, the Energy Drain on sidearm and Frostshards. Focus on draining your enemy's energy, and beat them down slowly with your STR and DEX. You should be putting most of your defensive stats into DEX.




The berserker killer -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/6/2016 10:47:01)

My only problem with this is that devs tend to nerf effective builds...and this is like speaking directly to the devs.




SouL Prisoner -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/6/2016 12:08:34)

thnx, but the only problem with that build is that it's slow, and slow builds don't work in 2v2. You need something strong and quick because you get very few turns and you must make the most out of them.




Digital X -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/6/2016 12:40:51)

I used to try unique builds back in Gamma and Delta I think, I'd go nuts and/or stat spam onto one stat and see the outcome lol. My most recent was something like a 200+ supp BH with phys aux back when that skill that heals you each hit (forgot the name) was passive.




Mother1 -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/6/2016 13:22:05)

@ Digital X

That passive was bloodlust.




Digital X -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/6/2016 15:08:43)

That's the one cheers! I haven't been on in a while and everything is flying out my head.




King Bling -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/7/2016 5:02:45)

Tech Mage:
1650 Health
Base Energy
45 Str + 33 + 6
Base Dex + 7 + 6
32 Tech
76 Supp + 33 + 6

4-1-1
1-3-Max
4-Max-1
Max-0-1

Use of auxiliary and combination of overload, stuns help.
It is a moderately working build.

Bounty Hunter:
1300 Health
1002 Energy
36 Str + 33 + 6
Base Dex + 7 + 6
42 Tech
76 Supp + 33 + 6

2-1-1
1-6-Max
0-1-1
0-Max-6

Fast wins, starting with auxiliary, using exile/legion battlegear active, if the enemy heals, poison followed by massacre and aux rage or if enemy doesnt heal, force followed by massacre is a GG.
Energy isnt a problem as the build guarantees a steal of 455 energy by static grenade and a return of energy as per that.

Tactical Mercenary:
2000 Health
Base Energy
Base Str
Base Dex + 12 + 6
32 Tech + 35
128 or 134 Supp + 35 + 6

1-1-1
8-1-5 or(4, As preferred)
Max or(8, As preferred)-1-Max
0-0-7 or(Max, As preferred)

Its a fun build, a perfect counter to it is MoB, so to counter the counter, a Cyber Yeti can come handy, shielding 2 out of 3 turns against f5 or a Kartherax against str builds using MoB, crits do help a lot.





Silver Sky Magician -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/7/2016 8:06:49)

TLM:

1400 HP
720 EP
STR: 18
DEX: 22 + 14
TECH: 19 + 35
SUPP: 135 + 35

1-1-Max
1-1-1
Max-1-Max
0-0-6

The unique feature of this build is maxing Blood Shield instead of Frenzy. Since Blood Shield improves with SUPP, a SUPP TLM can actually get high resistance for an impressive five turns at minimal cost. This build makes it much easier to defeat DEX, SUPP and tank TMs and SUPP BMs, as well as any build that is overreliant on energy attacks.




King Bling -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/8/2016 0:31:18)

Its useless practically, good on paper though, the reason is there are many skills etc to deal physical damage.
Plus no support would go on a defensive mode, instead take an offensive path and try to keep his enemy pinned down
so as to execute with rage easily.
Because once a squishy build goes defensive its pretty much gg.




Silver Sky Magician -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/8/2016 5:47:47)

It worked for me though, better than the max Frenzy alternative at least. The default strategy for this build should be constant offense like the typical support TLM, but max Blood Shield gives you that versatility when needed.




shadow.bane -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/8/2016 11:05:57)

My newest BH build enjoy :

800 hp
630 ep

45 + 0 str
55 + 27 Dex
84 + 35 Tech
48 + 22 Support

1 - 1 - 1
2 - 8 - M
3 - 7 - 1
8 - 0 - 0

Primary : Energy (Frost shards + lucky strike)
Sidearm: Energy (Azrael's will + aim assist)
Armor : 100/20 (Eternal protection + generator)
Aux : Physical (Stun blast + Improbability gate)

Robot : Infernal android

Hope you like ! :)




The berserker killer -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/8/2016 16:08:28)

Hey Mercs

1000 hp
732 energy

24 str
base
base
146 Support

117
710
M40
01M

Primary: Energy with P core
Sidearm: P with Critical core
Aux: E
Armor: 50/70, Generator preferred
Robot: Abyss/Hawk.

Out of 300 wins ill lose 20-30 times. Strength builds are no problem, supports are no problem, shadow arts is a little problem since we cant drain back the energy lost (Shadow Arts bug for now). So have fun guys.

Few tricks and hints:

When Vs an opponent with less than 1k hp:

Aux, (Now if hes less than 660 hp) Bot core, (Now rage % is at 63%+) Force for instant rage, then multi rage no matter what and youll hit 600+.

When Vs strength:

Blood commander, intimidate, strike strike maybe P core, Aux

When Vs SUpport: Blood commander, multi, strike, p core, aux




shadow.bane -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/8/2016 17:57:57)

^versus high ranks f5 with 800 hp her build wont work ! right ghost ? ;)




The berserker killer -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/8/2016 18:00:22)

Uhhh ranks hasn't really been an issue with me. However the build is perfect at rank 40. Everyones pretty easy to be honest. As stated, shadow arts is a problem since we cant drain our energy back (for now).

You can PM me for any other concerns




King Bling -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/8/2016 21:34:57)

it will work easily seeing it nukes hard. But a single IA normal force and frozen aux rage special is a gg




The berserker killer -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/8/2016 22:00:37)

Not really. You won't be able to get past the hp regain. But that's my build, you guys can test it out if you want. It'll speak for itself




King Bling -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/9/2016 6:42:54)

ya completely forgot bout skill, thats why I usually carry azrael aux to shut down any functional/ mostly non functional merc builds




The berserker killer -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/9/2016 11:32:08)

Even that barely stops it




Lord Machaar -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/9/2016 13:46:07)

Unique builds work during gifting because no one plays PVP. So making a build and saying it works during gifting event is kinda funny. When the war comes, and more experienced players come back to PvP, high rank ones too, with Op slow builds, all of that changes.

I would probably start making unique builds when I'm rank 50. As for now, I think ranking up with effective builds is better rather than wasting your time on unique builds at lower ranks and getting farmed pretty hard by high rank players who used bots to farm npcs and come back to pvp with well earned advantage. And then they say I'm pro. Yeah right, totally.




Foulman -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/10/2016 0:29:00)

AxHow about edeil's build. Idk what his/her name exactly is, but here's the build for level 38 BH:
1802 hp
701 ep
Base STR
Base DEX+14
42+34 TECH
Rest in Support
Max Static
Max Poison
Level 3ish Medic
Max SA
Level 1-6 Reflex
Rest into whatever. Piston punch, frostshards and energy shot, optional Bloodhawk.




Therril Oreb -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/10/2016 5:10:12)

I have seen some good and some bad posts here so I am giving everyone a reminder here.
Either you post a build of your own for people to see or you give feedback towards a build. But do not ridicule someone's if it is not your style.
If a build has weak points, you can say so, the player can improve the build then. This thread is about helping each other and maybe even teach how to make a build.
So keep this i mind everyone.




Foulman -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/10/2016 5:26:50)

4 focus BH, 750 hp. 40 STR and DEX, 45 support, rest into Tech. Max SA, level 6 poison, level 8 MoB, level 6 Reflex, Max Static, level 1 heal, level 1 energy shield, level 1-3 smoke and the rest into whatever. Puts level 36 to low rankers on more or less equal footing with the high rankers' defense, but sacrifices a little in terms of damage. Therril, can these builds be ours or builds we've seen?




Silver Sky Magician -> RE: Unique Builds Thread (1/10/2016 5:35:45)

I think some players may not be too happy about their builds being shared without permission, so I'd prefer if you only post your own builds. That said, if the players give you permission to share their builds, go ahead and do so - and remember to credit them for it.
