Lol , looks pretty fun xD More vids plz . rly good :D

[@ArtfulDoge]

thank you for your kind words sir

[@kruuz.k]

I watched so many videos and this was the one I liked and enjoyed the most.

[@ArtfulDoge]

this comment is gonna give my girlfriend a good nights sleep

[@caniix]

ohhh yesss more juicy rapier gameplayyyy pls

[@ArtfulDoge]

gotta juice for the boys

[@Z.8.W]

I would feel naked playing without evade, but you making it work ! great one

[@ArtfulDoge]

A few people have said this, but I have ran it like this since S2, evade would be great for chasing people down but riposte has more value I think

[@jay_castro5860]

I started getting used to grace tree on rapier and man it took me a while but it’s great. Ever since I saw this video I crafted a new rapier with flurry and man that invulnerability is night and day compared to evade. Love these videos bro

[@jay_castro5860]

Also I haven’t yet mastered VG so I’m using it with bow, FS, and spear. Super fun with flurry and repost

[@ArtfulDoge]

That's amazing man, I am glad you're seeing some success with it! Keep it up 🤙🏼

[@DonPabro]

art, why r u using Lifetaker? is lifetaker only apply on ranged only weapon?

[@ArtfulDoge]

I use it because I get more value from it because it scales with dex, so it does more than just tickle ppls bums, however testing soon a regular vg with scream and keen speed!

[@Ersb99]

Bro how much time it takes to craft a sick weapon like this ?, I want a busted hammer and a hatchet, but I can't find it on the market, Soo I have to make my own ?

[@ArtfulDoge]

Yeah if you want absolute BIS like this you have to craft, costs vary server to server but it will be around 60k-100k and it's done with an Azoth Inductor :)

[@Ersb99]

@@ArtfulDoge it will take me 2 weeks at least right ? To level up my crafting level ? , Im level zero at everything 🤣, I only have gear 680, but having a blast im OPR by Perma cc'ing people

[@ArtfulDoge]

@@Ersb99 People will sell you their casts, so you will pay extra for it but you can still get someone else to craft it for you! It's what I did on the rapier for example cause I don't have 250 weaponsmithing. Yeah mate as long as you're having fun blasting cunts, keep sending it!

[@pubadubgthreemeninatree8596]

this has been my favorite build since you released the last video. I run with 150 con

[@ArtfulDoge]

150 con chad move

[@KonurayOzbek]

Can you make a pvp build for healer? If we bring nature damage to weapons and armors, will it be successful in pvp? for example rapier

[@ArtfulDoge]

Sadly it won't really be successful, you could play flail in medium armour with the artifact lifestaff and still do some okay damage and heal still for sure, like a paladin build!

[@MegaSickunt]

Hey bro, really enjoying the vids showcasing this build! I'm starting to gear towards this, and was wondering why you not running Sundering Riposte perk on the gear. Is it not worth it?

[@ArtfulDoge]

I was thinking about this the past couple of days actually, and you could certainly put it on somewhere instead of a health slot for sure! I think I am gonna put it on my chest when I get round to doing a 3 perk cast for it

[@MegaSickunt]

@@ArtfulDoge Thanks!

[@MegaSickunt]

@@ArtfulDoge Also, what are your thoughts on a Leeching Flurry/Abyssal Attunement/Plagued Crits or a Leeching Flurry/Pen Backstab/ Plagued Crits. Do you see that working, or is the disease from Scream enough?

[@ArtfulDoge]

@@MegaSickunt I weighed it up, and I thought if you have screamed them and land a full flurry this is usually enough, as I wanted to get as much damage as possible, however it could certainly work as 1v1 it's not that often you can get a backstab flurry anyway

[@MegaSickunt]

@@ArtfulDoge Ty bro! Just crafted the same rapier as yours. Time to slap!

[@pubadubgthreemeninatree8596]

just got a leeching flurry, pen backstab, rogue rapier. is rogue and pen backstab overkill u think?

[@ArtfulDoge]

Nah that will do just fine till you can craft one like mine! Sometimes you don't always get the chance to backstab flurry them, but if you can scream them and get the roll behind them sheeesh surprise sex for them

[@Sepperel]

Another question is it still possible to get Tumblr feet wraps in season four

[@ArtfulDoge]

Yes sir I believe you get them inside OPR boxes

[@Sepperel]

@@ArtfulDoge thanks

[@Niszczonatorek]

Until daggers are coming out, im gonna borrow this build

[@ArtfulDoge]

When daggers come out I will blow my load! Lemme know how it goes

[@benrici]

Would Ankh be better with shirking heals?

[@ArtfulDoge]

it's a trade off, I used to run it but I just prefer thirst because its more on demand and better for 1vX, if you don't plan on being a chad then stick to Ankh, but you would also lose 15% def bonus for something

[@david2012slayer]

ankh debuff you 25% the stealing life from your rapier, and probably is more usefull than shirking heals

[@Jayson_Tatum]

Think a lightning version of this rapier would work with Boltcaster?

[@ArtfulDoge]

For sure it would!

[@david2012slayer]

I play a similar version with boltcaster and its good. But that rapier with backtabing perk and the void guantlet do way more dmg than mine. I defenitely going to try this build, looks fun af

[@ArtfulDoge]

​@@david2012slayerit takes some bobbing and weaving but it's the most fun I have ever had on NW

[@Travelplays]

what song did you use in the video :D

[@ArtfulDoge]

I believe it's called: Nightwalker // Splasher!

[@Sepperel]

How do I get grasping futility legendary all I can find is epic

[@ArtfulDoge]

it drops from the pvp track, might be because I am max rank

[@mjong14]

Niiice build and gameplay. I gotta try playing without Evade. Also you kinda showed your mog from showing your gears btw but will subscribe anyway for that big 1000.

[@ArtfulDoge]

haha I know it's more there so I don't have to repeat myself :) let me know how it goes!

[@palshamon7135]

where is the dagger !!! ???? i need it

[@ArtfulDoge]

I am gonna go full cream pie when they drop one day

[@ItsSirPsJ]

I got an assassin creed 1 Altair transmog u might like

[@ArtfulDoge]

Oh yeah, what are the pieces?

[@nightmare-mo1uo]

attument better or vicious？

[@ArtfulDoge]

Because of the amount of void damage I stack, I am running attunement

[@tpgblast6621]

"using aimbot is forbidden" got me dead. bro think its a flying rapier 🤣🤣

[@ArtfulDoge]

that dm had me baffled, like what does he mean

[@KevOfPeen]

light melee is definatly the way. i run GA/BB dropping 40 bombs left and right

[@ArtfulDoge]

That's a killer combo, few friends love that build! Might give it a whirl soon

[@sneakymitchell7802]

Will be funny if devs add daggers

[@ArtfulDoge]

One can dream, daggers would go hard

[@sneakymitchell7802]

@@ArtfulDoge that what she said

[@bykaruso505]

hi geiles Video, danke dafür....ich komme eigtl aus dem PVE aber habe dein Build heute versucht, ich bekomme nur aufs Maul xD...ka was ich falsch mache...vielleicht einfach meine Unerfahrenheit im PVP....lg

[@ArtfulDoge]

Ayy good job for trying! Frankly any light melee is going to be verrryyy hard to play right now, but it's all about bobbing and weaving in and out of combat, you do your thing, get out reset and go again, you don't sustain and join in big clump fights or you insta die

[@lSuXeRl]

Why you think the leeching is worth on weapon? its not better to got this perk on armor? i think most value of that perk is become invulnerable and its same on armor or weapon.

[@ArtfulDoge]

When you leeching flurry into someone that you have hit with essence rupture you are getting 80% lifesteal from that flurry, which will basically top you and keep you in a fight, after the leeching flurry nerf (used to be 1 second not .5 seconds) it's harder to frame things well with it, also if you put this on your armour the value of the lifesteal is literally halved

[@MrLaMoutte]

Disgusting, i love it

[@ArtfulDoge]

Absolutely vile

[@HolyGreegree]

been here since less than 150 subs this will take prob no time , humble him real quick 4:17

[@ArtfulDoge]

I like your confidence, much like I like humbling fools

[@po-prostapoziomica5559]

Too bad lifetaker dose not apply dot in mele

[@ArtfulDoge]

Would be insane if it did 😂

[@laurak299]

I don't have any luck hitting with Flurry and likewise, people don't have luck hitting me with it. Maybe 1-2 then dodge and thanks for the shirking heals.

[@ArtfulDoge]

Flurry sticks sometimes and others not, the best way to get the most value from it is to bait someone to all in you and you full flurry them and take zero damage

[@ko1baskin]

I know him. He's a toxic disgrace who's always squatting in the arena.

[@ArtfulDoge]

They probably deserved it
