Any chance of a guide on spellsinger? Would love a guide that's up to date and you seem really good on that class

[@r6guy]

or fanatic if possible? :D

[@mongobaracuda]

What happened to your twitch?

[@Krieghandt]

You missed the point of daggers: Proc, proc, proc and long synergy chains. So, are your procs and synergy more important then raw damage(deathwish)? If not, don't go for daggers.

[@user-yb6ft9zw6z]

here is your answer folks about attack speed. Higher attack speed benefits on auto attacking, while slower atk speed but heavy hitter benefits from skill damage.

[@Shlobalobadingdong]

Thank you for the video. I'm still new to the game using a 2h for some reason as an Archer and this helped immensely

[@mercster]

LOL... for some reason I didn't worry or research this at all. I picked dual katanas and said "fuck it".

[@Pancakespls]

[@ExtrienV]

Question: The battlerage passive Deadly Duelist reads 'Equipping Two-Handed Weapons or Dual Wield Weapons allows you to Parry ranged attacks.' Is the skill right, or are you. or did you mean that dual wield will parry arrows without battlerage and the 2h weapon wont.

[@ExtrienV]

In a duel, I was parrying a basic bow shot with my 2h axe

[@SomeAssh0le]

Hey Belamy can you make a video on how to play spellsinger in pvp? How to open, what you most best options for damage are at different times, how to respond to getting chain stunned and fucked sideways, etc. All that situational stuff that as a new player I don't know I'm just trying to hit em with freezing arrow and arc lightning and I die before I get halfway through the freezing arrow cast

[@davidfrisbie8216]

Question: For Hiram gear, how do we "Replace Effects" after we run out of free changes? It appears there is a slot to the right for "Material". TY!

[@paulb5571]

Serendipity stones

[@IISkylesII]

I don't know if that ever got changed, but a few years ago I was looking up wiki's to find out what weapon I'd prefere and what effect each weapon type has. I believe I've read that Longspears had a chance to "greatly reduce enemy's physical defense". I bleieve I've seens then number of 7000 armor beeing tossed around, but can't really be bothered to search old forums in hopes to find it again. But I can remember getting some insanely high crits on full plate tanks that outgeared me, so I believe that those numbers could be close to real. I'm not sure if they reworked how weapon types work, but I'm gonna rock a longspear in unchained again. Hopefully not to many people pick up on it. It kinda feels nice beein the underdog and the unfavored weapon ^^

[@caifreer4]

All weapons had their unique procs, they got switched out for this system

[@IISkylesII]

@@caifreer4 ah, didn't know that. Thanks

[@jwsykes7628]

This was great help. I just could not understand what I should use. This clears it up. You did hint at armor being similar though. I’m still confused why you would choose one set of armor vs another. As a mage why would you wear plate or leather? That sort of thing.

[@0d0gn]

Plate is super common. Its mostly newer players that use plate and there are alot of newer players.

[@AeyLaen]

What class were you using for most of this video?

[@timothygorden7689]

@belamy Prime what gear is better than hiram and are dungeons still worth running since hiram gear appeared ?

hi thanx for video.Unchained Is new class weapon Gunn Pistole?

[@illeire2627]

What does melee attack affect?...overall damage or only “white damage” (autoattack damage)?

[@SubiqT]

Because you need for farm hiram gear at endgame, it doesn't matter which weapons I picked at the start and I can change later?

[@Viridriell]

They can be transformed into hiram, try to pick your class the second you start the game

[@F.Castle]

If the offhand is just about the stats then why not just go shield with mages or archers ?

[@JustNatsuYT]

You cant put critdamage/def pen lunagems in sheild for additional dps

[@Sorrowhgaming]

Very informative, thanks man!

[@JustNatsuYT]

Just quick question, isnt dual weild always stronger? Just since it means u getting far more lunagems for critdamage/def pen

[@ponyysher9963]

what do you think about enigmatist at this meta ?

[@balysle1828]

Hi Bellamy! I'm playing Fanatic and was considering doing leather with scepter and shield. Would you recommend using a weapon other than the shield for dual wielding? I was considering doing plate with dual wield, but I'm worried about getting deleted by mages. What is your favorite armor/weapon setup for AAU fanatic?

[@Solofein321]

what is you build during that pvp round???

[@td900100]

so not relevant to the video but still something I'm going to ask. why does Belamy carry both t6 health pots? I understand that the t7's might be comparable amounts of healing or maybe even less than the t6 depending on one's health total. can anyone answer this for me please? been looking to get into Alchemy in aa unchained and him having two health pots piqued my interest.

[@lswallie]

what about creating a 2nd set of gear, how does one go about doing that? lets say you got a full agi set but want to go melee/str. How do you get more scrolls and infusions?

[@valfreyaaurora4922]

If you want to change sets before hiram (from archer to melee), you can use an ADVENTURER's evenstone (caps for emphasis, as there is a different type of evenstone you don't want to use) to get back your infusions and scrolls. This will delete your current piece and let you buy another one from the weapon/armor merchants. If you want 2 sets (i.e. keep both), you will have to farm hiram gear in auroria to get the secondary set.

[@davidfrisbie8216]

Question please: If we are missing Synthesis Material (RARE) Story quest Infusion: Rank 2, HOW DO WE GET MORE if all the quests to get them are already complete? ty!

[@bridles100]

Break a piece or two to have infusions for this method. Create a new chest piece and make it arcane with one blue. Crush it and get back two greens. Create a new wrist and make it arcane with one green then use a scroll on it. Put one green and two blue into to make it heroic. Crush it to make one green and three blues. Have fun

What weapons would you recommend for an Executioner?

[@TheVPulse]

I would also like an answer to this one, since executioner is meant to be a melee counter which in most cases it means you wont need slashing weapons, then its Longspear/Greatsword for 2H and Shortspear+Axe/sword? this is my main issue, some ppl say Executioner biS is 2H but @Belamy Prime says its a matter of choice and ping, i really would like to go DW because of the parry agains archers and my over 100ms lactency but im worried about the offhand, axe or sword?

[@TheVPulse]

Wait i just tested DW vs 2H Spears and actually you do parry with both so whats the point of DW beside faster skill animations?

[@lNihito]

@@TheVPulse Its just about making more burst or really fast animation, if your weapons arent really upgraded you are going to lack on damage as DW against many people. Also DW gives you the chance to swap beetwen slashing and piercing on right hand by playing shortspear-katana or katana-shortspear

[@thyto3073]

What are the best weapons for archer?

[@beertje6394]

Does your AA content apply to unchained as well? Like your guides and stuff. Cause I am completely new to the game, never even heard of it before unchained and now I am clueless. I found your youtube channel and I like your videos.

[@robaroo]

Wheres the healer love mate? :)

[@robaroo]

@Illidan Stormrage Edgewalker all the way 😂😂😂

[@SC2Prototype]

I took a Greatsword instead of Spear/Axe, because the attackspeed just felt "smoother" for me. I hope it wont gimp me later, but in the end its only 10% dmg tradeoff for 10% more attackspeed and 0.1sec faster gcd

[@Mokaaaaaaaa]

best 2h weapon for darkrunner @Belamy Prime

[@ibannezer]

Can you rush a healer levelling video before launch please

[@BelamyPrime]

no theres only 1 hour left fk you

[@cumhurinci8682]

Which class is that at the begining and as a darkrunner longspear choise good or bad??

[@Millicente]

When videos say don’t get rid of your starting gear because that gets upgraded to hiram later do they mean the gear you have when you first make your character or the first set you get from questing

[@Millicente]

@Luke Griffiths oh ok thank you. That's the gear set that is labeled with your race name? or something like that?

[@TheAntonio6579]

Hey, do you recommend plate or leather for darkrunner ?

[@TheDexDrive]

i think Leather is better because you have "good" protection against Mdmg and Pdmg

[@jaernem]

You also have higher skill damage with leather.

[@Atljeepboy]

I'm thinking of going Mage (cloth) and going with Scepter/Shield to fill in my phys def. but I have never tried scepter/shield before so need to know what stats I should put on them to help with my phys def?

[@valdrrakdraconis8206]

i too was coming to ask this, I wanted to wear a shield for some more tankyness? it this viable?

[@BelamyPrime]

shield are perfectly fine - with a hiram shield as mage i would go Int, Evasion & Magic attack rolls

[@ArobeeTV]

Found this while I'm battling the login queue boss. I can't decide if I want to play a Blighter or a Darkrunner. Also not sure what weapons I want to use. Is a DW Blighter viable, or just go sword and board?

S&S blighter is awesome and you'll feel like you're playing a bit differently because everyone and their dog will be playing Darkrunner.

[@brunhildetutkal8836]

I play as a fanatic too im using cloth armor and a staff.. It works for me pretty well

[@Kenstro949]

Wait isn't sword just better than shortspear? 1.0 atk speed vs 1.1 and you can swap hands with a katana vs not being able to with a shortspear? Or am I missing something?

[@Jordan-im9jr]

As he said, it is your choice. There are differences between the sword and the spear but of course it's win-lose and lose-win. There isn't 'best' weapon in archeage. It depends on what are you going for

[@modumsnus]

What stats should I aim for as Darkrunner. Kinda got lost in some of the stats. I am guessing, Resi, melee crit and Defence pen is okey / good ?

Why darkrunner ;-;.

armor strength , max health resilience instruments etc melee attack parry or attack speed , weapons strength crit dmg crit rate

[@vencibushy]

I strongly disagree on your opinion about daggers. I tried daggers with the new swiftblade. I combined them with archery and shadowplay and created a death machine that would kill anything in a blink of an eye. Going stealth is critical as this is one of the main ways to close the distance to the opponent.
