What about for Fanatic/Spellsinger?

[@xpozzo1596]

any idea why my gear is brilliant and not radiant ?

[@jyria4827]

How can you gain more infusions? I accidently lost a weapon so i cannot complete the full set to the lvl28 tier2, I'm missing 1 of the infusions now.

[@Cody-ox2uu]

You dont . Literally, you have to make a new character. Think I'm joking? I'm not.

[@betif00]

You can get extra infusions. Break down some gear so you have a few blue infusions to work with. Take a chest piece, infusion with blue, break it to get 2 greens. Use 1 green on a wrist, 1 scroll on wrist, 2 blues and 1 green on wrist. Break wrist, you'll end up with an extra green from this process. Repeat until you make up for missing infusions. The process will cost you money and labor, but as long as you have a few blues and didn't throw away awakened gear, you can fix it.

[@Faced1111]

im a little confused over using either dual wield or 2h based on lag, did u mean dual wield for high ping or lower ping, wouldnt u technically want the slower attacking weapon for higher ping, for the record im playing EU servers but live in the united states

[@itsDKRG]

Thanks for the video Kanon. Can you make a video on trade packs/trade runs for people who's never done it before?

[@Carlito.undercover]

So two 1h sword or 2h sword for high ping?

[@xeanstudio4303]

how can I reroll the 2nd and 3d stats?

[@Ew0kHunter]

Can you still change synthesis stats when you upgrade you gear to the hiram set? Also you can still your hiram set or another hiram set via diamond shore farming correct?

[@MrWallopy]

So plate takes the most damage, and cloth takes the least amount? Could we get a better explanation on this? :D LIke is that for the armor itself taking more damage? So does this negate damage from the user by 20/15%?

[@jaspermartin7444]

so strange... I received awakening scrolls long before level 28 -- should I not have used them?

[@DatBoiXO69]

@Kanon On my hiram armor as a shadowblade, for the second effects do I want toughness or backstab melee damage?

[@lorarutagege2472]

So where do you get a bow ?

[@reubenahn8020]

You should have one from the start

[@michaellind4387]

Armor merchant 1h box gives bow

[@Namdead]

So using 2 of the same weapon for dual-wield is a dumb idea?

[@xeanstudio4303]

I haven't played archeage since 2015, I played Leather type Dark runner in the past. Is it true that dark runners can now wear plate on pvp/pve because of the armor stat rebalance? If not, what class should I pick for PLATE/2H weap build? bec those Hiram Heavy armor set looks awesome :D

[@KanonXO]

yes you can, can't go wrong with darkrunner...seriously they're always amazing

[@reptiliancow]

by quest gear, do you mean the first set you get? or just any gear received from quests?

[@Gyva02]

I deleted mine and found you can buy the armor from the armor merchants and upgrade them as well. 10 silver for a full set, all sets are the same just have different appearance at first. Once upgraded they all look the same.

[@decaphragm]

Complete newb to AAU, so how do I determine what stats are optimal for my quest/eventually Hiram gear? I can't seem to find a definitive answer but it may be because I don't know what to search for lol

[@joniglesias9363]

I went here after watching your launch guide and I got my ears raped

[@KanonXO]

[@PutTheCookieDown]

Does exit lag work with a hotspot though? The internet at my place is very spotty and drops at any given time and thus I’ve have had to resort to using my t mobile hotspot, which still currently gives me 125-175 ping and/or do you think it would correct the current spotty internet in my apartment ? (No issues downloading anything, but lag spikes up the booty randomly which make any FPS impossible and even my main RPG GW2 troublesome during raids. I ask because I’ll be transitioning to AAU to see what else is out there)

[@KanonXO]

i've used tunnelers before using hotspot, i haven't tried with exitlag though, i can't imagine it not working though...i can't say for sure. 3 day free trial though, can always try it at no risk man!

[@jstoney2549]

So dark runners go dual wield ? Or 2h

[@Cody-ox2uu]

Dont play DR. Its a literal trash build that is only good for killing clothies after the 5.3 update over a year ago. It's a meme build.

[@PSNMyfoot]

[@Tseyman]

So how do you get magic atk on your katana at lvl 1? People recommend I use one but then my spells do no damage compared to a scepter.

[@KanonXO]

Tseyman katana have no base magic attack. Maybe those people are confusing today’s gear with obsidian that no longer exists which were hybrid items, the katana had magic attack. Scepter staff are the only two that have magic damage now other than the damage you can get from the int stat roll

[@Atljeepboy]

When upgrading quest gear is there a way to see all the stats and what they are good to go with? Like if I want to put physical defense on my scepter and shield what stats should I put on them? I'm going mage with cloth and putting intelligence on everything else and need to balance it out with physical defense on my shield and scepter.

[@KanonXO]

Khallek yes, click the magnifying glass on the right side of the gear upgrade menu to see the possible stat rolls

[@kittyl7333]

if I buy the beginner set and don't get the stats I want... can I just re-buy until I get the stats I want?

[@KanonXO]

Luis yes

[@HomiePopTart23]

It doesn't give you back all of the infusions you used on a piece of equipment just the basics from where you break it down from. I messed up and put all my green infusions on my weapon thinking I was going to get more for my armor later but when I joined up with my guild they said there was only a set amount of green infusions for the beginning equipment x.x would have been nice to have a message in the quest line that says you receive a limited amount. I'm a returning player that left before the Hiram update and my guild basically just said to lvl my gear with the infusions but no one said to only use 2 green infusions on each item :(. I hoped I could get all the green infusions back by doing this but it only gave me back 2 and a few blue infusions. Rip me.

[@KanonXO]

HomiePopTart23 aren’t the blue ones equivalent or make up for the other green ones you put in? I can see how that’s a problem though yeah because you wouldn’t be able to distribute it amongst multiple pieces regardless. Damn never had this issue, sorry!

[@HomiePopTart23]

Kanon Yeah I'm hoping it's not that big of a deal, my guild says it shouldn't be and I should be able to farm for Hiram gear soon anyways (･_･; but idk what the hell I'm doing lol

[@Ed-el6pp]

So which weapon is the most ping friendly? I play in HK

[@KanonXO]

dagger main hand dual wield is the best for ping b/c it's the fastest but it's a bit overkill with damage. If you use a program like exitlag from HK an dual wielding with axe main hand SHOULD be doable

[@Zamoxino]

@@KanonXO i heard that speed in most cases lose to weapon power in this update tho. dagger wins in some cases but its like 10% of the situations or something

[@Ed-el6pp]

Kanon i also reminds not to use speed rely weapon like bow. So i was told to play tank. Does dual wield can be a tank? New AA player here.

[@CopperRavenProductions]

I am still not sure whether duel or 2h... damn it Jim!!

[@KanonXO]

Put a gun to my head and I’ll say two handed great axe for battlerage + shadowplay builds for players with sub 100 ping for Hiram then dual wield main hand axe for 100+ ping and or crafted erenor gear!

[@CopperRavenProductions]

Kanon is crafting even viable in this game anymore? I do not even see regrade material in the auction and just plain weapon world drops. Also does Hiram gear drop at later lvls. For example you can not purchase a bow nore can you purchase a instrument. So if you destroy them for the infusions to get the stat you want, you're screwed. As of now my bow is crap and I may have to reroll just to get my bow back......

Wait wait - so you're telling me the quest gear can be upgraded to Divine before it caps out? This means I can use the upgraded quest gear until I get a legitimate random Hiram drop (say helmet), then breakdown the quest helmet I upgraded into infusions and scrolls and turn around use those on the new Hiram helmet? Did I get that right?

Tell that to exit lag that made the script, I mean it’s a sponsored ad so....

-doesn't cover how melee attack speed is calculated and how attack speed affects weapon attack speeds, e.g. "faster" weapons such as dagger, which won't give 20%(20% faster compared to 1.0 att speed weapon) but more like 15% additional attack speed with a DW + shadowplay passive build (~82% att speed), and how axe wouldn't be 10% slower but 8% compared to 1.0 -doesn't mention 3% additional cutting dmg from piercing weapons on cloth -by autoattacking, ur offhand would do additional damage applied by it's weapon type and it would also change attack speed of it depending on the type of the weapon, you telling me that some Swiftblade skills would take only the damage from the axe I find very "I TALK CRAP I DIDN'T TEST LUL", ye I think that's exactly what it is, and cuz u didn't say "ONLY THE DAMAGE FROM OFFHAND..." it's a miss to clarify the other stuff about it so it's like u said that it doesn't -ur rough estimation on ping 10% attack speed is VERY ROUGH, my test showed 25% which was recorded -ping does not affect attack speed at all, ur skills animation will be exactly the same, it's more of a constant GCD added on top of the skills GCD that you used which varies yet, you still covered more than most youtubers, gj on that I guess

@@josefplacek4200 Ping is directly related to lag... ping is literally the millisecond latency of response time. You can change your DNS which can definitely help your ping and 1 in 10 cases is such a random number. If you traceroute your connection and notice issues you can even VPN if you have enough tunnel bandwidth which can reduce ping. The advertised company is possibly using a combination of all of these things to reduce lag easily for someone who doesn't know even the basics of network management. It's hardly fooling people, it's providing a service.
