Man opr is addicting when you got a solid build setup. Great video man!

Aye he’s back at it again. 🔥 video as always

Miss ya buddy! You still playing on East?

[@stainlessseal1767]

@@RAW_Fit ya not sure I haven’t played in a long time now

[@godz4681]

I go spear GS as well but I went with 300 dex and 100 strength because I want attributes bonus of getting out of cc by swapping weapon and also spear scale better with Dex while GS can do both

[@winzzy2866]

Just the video I was waiting for. I was thinking about doing Venom with SnS, but am interested in GS now as well...

[@RAW_Fit]

I am working on that one next ;) I have a venom and SnS build in medium I'll be testing in war. But for opr light is always best :)

[@winzzy2866]

@@RAW_Fit I have to think a sword with Trenchant Rend and Plagued Strikes on it would be disgusting...

[@RAW_Fit]

@@winzzy2866 trenchant rend is ok trenchant strikes is better!

[@winzzy2866]

@@RAW_Fit True, there just isnt a named upgrade with strikes that I like. I could third perk it but then I give up plagues Strikes.

[@RAW_Fit]

@@winzzy2866 roll the glacial tarn replicas they are pretty cheap. Lock in trenchant strikes or add trenchant strikes to a named item?

nice video and GOOD MUSIC new sub

[@RAW_Fit]

Eyy let's go! Appreciate it!

[@clashwithcutty7175]

question...steadfast recovery does bleeding if you are in defiant stance but will you ever be in defiant stance to gain the bleed? I am wondering if it is worth it going down that tree

[@RAW_Fit]

Occasionally I will steadfast into heavy as a defensive/regain moment, it's nice and yes as you said it's just 1 more bleed to add to the tick!

[@clashwithcutty7175]

@@RAW_Fit Sorry I mistyped, the bleed requires you to be in defiant stance. But because this is your only ability on that side of the tree, one cannot be in defiant stance ever to apply the bleed...right?

[@RAW_Fit]

@@clashwithcutty7175 why wouldn't they be in defiant stance after they do rupture or steadfast... Steadfast Into heavy. If they are stammed targets it's guaranteed.

[@Mextliz]

The trench perks dont get applied with the Coup De Grace. So, the poison and bleed will be the only thing applief with the sweep

[@RAW_Fit]

Trenchant crits/strike is applied to heavy attacks, coupe de grace is a heavy attack. There for yes they do apply to the sweep stab.

[@Mextliz]

@@RAW_Fit you can test this using the trench rend perk. It doesn't get applied I've tried it. Not with the new season tho.

[@RAW_Fit]

@@Mextliz might be an untended bug! Thanks for letting me know!

[@Mextliz]

@@RAW_Fit I found it odd myself. Figured the key difference was a heavy signified just a long click where a trenchant meant a full heavy - charged completely. Let's hope it's a bug cause id love to try this build myself

[@RAW_Fit]

@@Mextliz I think it's a bug because if you recall the heavies use to be only fully charged for it to count at one point and I think the swap in coding might have reset that and now isn't applying to half heavies or any thing labeled as a heavy attack

[@CROWbarIX]

Quick tip bro drop the heavy atk fortification is only for 2 sec and as u said is involving sweep>coup the grace and swap that pasive is ded u rather go for top right passive in right tree imo

[@RAW_Fit]

I hope they fix that issue but I think what your referring to only counts towards "trenchant." I can test and try it later today.

[@RAW_Fit]

The heavy for 2 secs fortify procs. Good value as you get stuck in that animation and any extra DMG mitigation to exit is nice.

[@ddyang9172]

I had this build already made for season 5 but sns is still out shining this even with keenspeed on gs its just not sticky enough to viable even rapier feels better

[@RAW_Fit]

SnS is next, I will be making all viable builds with venom, this was just the first :)

[@Evvrett]

Why Emeralds over Opals?

[@RAW_Fit]

@@Evvrett just my preference at that point. It's simply double the DMG output as an opal but half the uptime potential. Also the life steal part was new so I was enjoying the "new."

[@Evvrett]

@@RAW_Fitnice! Thanks for the reply man! Follow up question, why runeglass on the Spear but no runeglass on the GS?

[@RAW_Fit]

@@Evvrett prob my budget lmao use runeglass on both

@@RAW_Fitemerald effects life steal healing too? That be nice clutch to have

[@RAW_Fit]

@@sneakymitchell7802 it has lifesteal built in, read the description 😉

[@GlenironPa]

Bloodletting on the ring since Venom bleed works on both weapons? Blood letting, Hearty, with Thrust damage on a ring..banger. Sword Hvy is also a thrust attack. Double bleed, thrust damage both melee weapons...ouch. Leaping strike is also thrust damage. Gonna have to get some vigor on the gear cuz....well. Bleeding is what it's about now, imo.

[@RAW_Fit]

Yea I was thinking if I wanna a go full bleed blood letting would be juicy!

[@GlenironPa]

@@RAW_Fit just saw the "Red Hot Slag" is a magnify ring with Hearty and Blood leting on it and you can upgrade it at the kiln with whatever else you want on it. I'm going for Thrust damage. What do you think?

[@FunniesRS]

@@RAW_Fit if you could find a way to run something other than great sword with int to use 250 int passive for 30% extra dot duration too it would stack quite long, i do that with my bow/musket build and i can hit someone with poison shot and they'll still be taking damage 20s later, anywhere between 300-800s with a full nature harnessing build/nature dmg/poison duration on ring, maybe a musket/spear build, i'm not too experienced with the gauntlets yet myself to know which would pair best with it, ice or void. see you on the battlefield - Fight4Bread

[@GlenironPa]

OMG...idiot me...Venom is poison on both weapons not bleed. It still rocks though. It's the woodgrain ring that has poisoning duration of 32% and thrust damage. I'm gonna have to see which ring works better.

[@RAW_Fit]

@@GlenironPa funny you say that I was making note of that today remembering it's a poison as I got a poison ring.

sweep on armor, pvp back stap for venom

No way! Bleed builds always maximize bleed DMG! Otherwise what's the point?

U forgot they improved spear tracking on aa and abilities cause apparently that weapon needed it thé most

[@theberliner2k9]

I am pretty sure you would have killed 90% of them without dot ticks from venom

[@RAW_Fit]

You must have missed the clips of me watching them run away and die. 😆

[@RAW_Fit]

Venom hits very hard with trenchant strikes and trenchant crits... The dots are just the icing on cake.

[@theberliner2k9]

Ye, I am not saying that the dots dont hit hard. My point is: Why spend perks and artifact weapon slot for dots when you kill those peps anyway with like 1 more hit... I dont see the value of dots that much...

[@RAW_Fit]

@@theberliner2k9 dots keep pressure on the opponent, they provide a lot of value, sorry you don't see it

[@CRooKeDCoP]

@@theberliner2k9 watch the clips again , when they break distance and drink a pot. The dots bring them right back down therefore he can easily keep pressuring them and they are in panic mode.
