The BEST SLAYER FIGHTER Build Currently | Dark and Darker

[@milkmaster9247]

The legendary return to slayer fighter, I will always watch your ranger content and enjoy it, but I know I am not the only who can welcome this change of pace. But ultimately do what you want, keep it up man!

[@the_last_ranger]

I enjoy the Ranger content. The MS cap being lowered, the item changes removing a lot of MS, the original nerf to sprint (the recent change made it way better), nerfing Francisca damage so they could buff Barbs Axe Specialization and then making Franciscas unstackable and giving an equip time to them basically hit Slayer Fighter with a bunch if indirect nerfs and you can really feel the difference unfortunately.

[@Mm-dn5gc]

Dude i joined the game for free at the steam release and ive played nothing but slayer fighter despite everyone and their mother telling me its trash. I just really liked the dual weild and high action spd gameplay. I absolutely loved this video. Nothing wrong with Ranger, i just like to see my class being played and people having fun with it.

A beautiful return to form. Also last words of this video have me excited for you. If you feel youre near that point in your streaming career, thats huge. Big love lorr never stop

Slayer Lorr is back and it's Raining blood!!

[@Toothydeere]

Hey Lorr, I absolutely love your videos and the vibes you put out. You have insane aura, full glaze! Your music is fantastic and your videos never miss. A cool thing I just found out today is that Magical Healing actually applies to Healing Potions with a 50% ratio. Healing from potions also counts as a Buff, so Buff Duration and Magical Healing can make potions more potent. That Frost Pendant you got was even better than you thought, an extra 1.5 HP from potions is a pretty cool deal!

[@thelorr]

Thank you, sir! I appreciate you, and this knowledge 🙏🏼

[@jacksparojr]

Are the francisca axes better to use than the drum? the drums do more damage and you can pick them back up

[@fishyspiky5669]

Would it be worth using a similar build without the copperlight gear for under gear score 25?

[@dyslexicape4249]

Since you have weapon mastery and your not really using the castillon would a stiletto not be better for the 5% armor pen?

[@rayjarvike]

More expensive

[@thelorr]

More expensive yes but that would be a better idea.. yeah!

[@bennyheppner4589]

He's back ive been waiting for this moment

[@DimePwnz]

8:50 shouldn't you use stiletto since you are using weapon master anyways? +5% armor pen

[@Tonyredgrave117]

I was curious but would stiletto be better as a secondary since it has built in pen or no?

[@OG_Koma]

Started playing slayer myself because i found thelorr videos waaay back when, still love your content but you on ranger just felt weird; you are THEE slayer fighter guy. Glad you're back to it please stay

[@NaThaNkIng2166]

Really enjoyed the video, thanks for going step-by-step about certain things. It really helps me learn the game better, whether it's how to fight or what items to use. You're my favorite Dark and Darker creator.

[@rickybarnard6624]

For slayer fighter I've been running a stilleto over Castillion for the 10 percent armor pen. Both daggers have the same move speed penalty so I opt for the free pen.

[@Timmcd]

Does the stiletto armor pen apply to the falchion swings?

[@xaedris]

Yes hence why double dagger builds are popular or were (nerfs to pen hit a bit)

[@Timmcd]

@@xaedris Rad, thanks.

[@papajero4074]

I tried a lot of Slayer the last few days and pretty much had the same experience. You constantly need to outplay, space and use max Falch Range, if you're caught once (Smite, Faithfulness Cleric for example) you're pretty much dead. But like this it's pretty good to be honest, Slayer also performs pretty good against Rogues, being able to outrange them and there are sooo many Rogues right now :)

[@thelorr]

There’s for sure benefits to slayer! No longer scared of rogues or cat form in exchange you must outplay every other class 🤣

[@fade9004]

Hey Lorr have you considered running any builds that stack resourcefulness to throw opponents off with the increased cooldown reductions? Enjoy the vids.

[@thelorr]

Will try one soon!

[@vtaught]

yo if i have armor penetration on my dagger will it apply on my falchion since i have both of them in my hands? its a stiletto dagger btw

[@mikey102ish]

Would it be good to go Castillon Dagger for the armor pen?

[@rayjarvike]

Hey thelorr, nice videos While I enjoyed ranger, I think a lot of people rathered slayer - even though both are just use ranger weapons and finish off with weapons For me, it doesn’t matter what you play, I’ll always love your methodical gameplay, keep it up ❤

[@SillyLittleDemon]

the percentages are better anyway, easier to understand, because they're relative to a baseline (100%) so like it's weird to even want that in the first place, let alone expect other people to want that

[@ИльяВульвач]

i love return of slayer so much. thelorr means THE SLAYER

How long would it even take to fire all 120 of those arrows? Seems like overkill tbh

[@Joel-wj9ql]

Seems like your time playing ranger has helped your slayer skills. Hyped for next video, keep em coming man!

[@KommisarFuklaw]

If you’re running weapon mastery you may as well run one of the armor pen daggers over cast dagger 👀 Also like Warhammer + Shortsword for armor pen and the sword bonus :) Nice build!! Slayer is a lot of fun, hope they get more hats this year lmao

[@julianhjort]

flanged mace with combo attack slayer build is cracked too bro, cuz of the armor pen and the high flat weapon dmg AND the fast hit animation

[@shoutingzombie]

You’re the reason I play slayer fighters. Big fun

[@cornguy9292]

If you have 1 weapon with armor pen and 1 without does it give the armor pen to both?

[@Slanderbot]

It's funny you say wep master needs a nerf, and I agree, as does most of the community. So what does Ironmace do? BUFF IT! :D

[@Sneezas]

Lorr is one fire clearing out the smeagol caves! Nice vid man keep up the great slayer vids!

[@blazinggames1988]

I’ve been doing dex, move speed, true physical slayer builds with a bow and not having much luck. I take arming sword and short sword for turn and burn and it just doesn’t hit, but having the ability to max move speed with weapons out and have the burst of falchion seems like exactly what I’ve been looking for, thanks for the build and the vid :)

[@Joel-wj9ql]

Arming ssword is better for stand and bang, just can be tricky to land lots of the strikes as they are mainly overheads and stabs Yea falchion and cast overall best I feel, especially lmb rmb rmb lmb rmb combo. That second swing of the falchion comes flying out of nowhere after the second cast swing and then depending on situation you are in a good spot to land the big boy cast stab. Play your cards right and you will burst literally anyone down with one combo and not even take a hit Don't feel pressured to try land the cast slashes either, often they are just useful to feign miss to bait an enemy swing and is good to set up that falchion out of nowhere

[@Mm-dn5gc]

​@@Joel-wj9ql i always thought that castillion was mainly a support weapon for stats and fighters focused on landing hits with the falchion, because trying to land hits with cast means u have to get in their face and by doing so u lose the falchion range. Not to mention if u are too close u dont hit them with the tip of the falchion blade anymore and u lose some dmg like that. Ive been trying Armin + short because i love the combo but its a struggle against every longsword user, u have to use angles on every hit and u end up hitting limbs.

[@richardpagel6959]

Is the survival bow really the bow to go? I thought at least taking a recurve bow. It is not that much slower but the dmg is much higher in comparison.

[@thelorr]

I’ll give it a try some time!

[@ivanfranebijelic7009]

I've been kind of experimenting with running a shortsword with a flanged mace or war hammer. This lets me have the AP for the tanky boys and the shortsword for anyone else. Sword Mastery also does seem to apply to the mace while you have the shortsword equipped, but I'm not sure. It's the same speed as falchion + dagger but with more versatility with your moveset and the targets you can attack.

[@WrenchnWitWillieG]

I’ve spent the majority of my time playing slayer fighter and MS and DPS are priority… I stack strength and physical damage, and true with action speed… I’m an arming sword gamer because you can hit them twice before they can get a second swing off and I’d say as long as they aren’t PDR stacked 2 head shots with the arming and they’re down. But yeah you’re right if you’re not faster and kiting you die as a slayer

[@undeadxshina2251]

why wouldnt u do stiletto dagger so u can get that 5% armor pen

[@cemi4840]

I have been using war hammer/short sword fighter with slayer, dual wield. sword mastery. Then you have a good side to side swing for mobs and a stupid fast short sword for pvp with +7 weapon damage, +20% armor pen and +15% action speed. if you take adren bumps it to +30%.

[@air1s821]

Why not use the offhand dagger that gives armor pen

[@Rwnds7967]

I think it might be better for weapon mastery to have an action speed penalty on non-native weapons instead of even less damage. It makes more sense thematically and also nerfs bows on fighter in the right way. Maybe -10% damage, and minus 5-8% action speed would be fair.
