I think Staff is fine, good dmg. Problem I see is that late game it falls off as DW will eventually make up for the dmg edge that Staff gives and then some meaning the atk spd from DW. I definitely see staff fanatics though! It’s also a lot easier to gear up one weapon.

Great video. New player. Been playing archer but have a fanatic alt that I seem to enjoy a lot. I see this is a popular class but are there any viable stealth mage builds or any builds with stand out utility abilities that you can think of ?
@Xslye5 жыл бұрын
Fanatics don’t stealth much because other tree passives are better. Unless you’re playing melee, stealth doesn’t make sense in this game later on. Only time I could see it is arena or 1v1s which in most cases it’s whoever ganks the other first. Utilities wise, a heavy CC class is useful, witchcraft spec, occultism(zealot). Night cloak is not a mage but it’s a tank cc/utility. Pretty insane. Mage is DPS.

Hi. I’m new so excuse the noob question. I keep seeing people dual wielding but that doesn’t make sense to me. The staff has the highest magic attack so why do people dual wield when the scepter is lower m attack and other weapon (usually) dagger has no magic attack. We don’t melee so the secondary weapon is basically useless? Thank you for the advice.

dual wielding allows faster GCDs...thus equaling more DPS. and with staff - how are you going to equip a shield and dps.

You’re thinking early game. I don’t lose to archers or melees unless they out gear me by 500+ GS and even then I can half combo them. Cloth is tanky late game. Cloth I suggest max HP, INT, and resilience. 3.5K toughness, you won’t be one combo’d trust me. Cloth with sustain cannot be one combo’d late game from melee or archers. Group fights you shouldn’t be focused else you’re playing wrong. 1v1s, burst them down fast. Small scale, same thing as 1v1. Fanatic is craZy good.

You will have a very hard time to get the correct stats on plate Hiram if you did not choose it at first. Reason being is that you will need to farm those plate Hiram drops which are very rare.
