Wand and Spear as a Class First Look at a New Contender for Sleep Bombing in Throne and Liberty

[@cali4806]

Finally somebody thats not copying everyone’s spear/dagger builds.

[@frankie2340]

And you coping him?😂

[@VextGamingEU]

Ha ha was also going to be picked up fast woth GS and Dagger :p

[@MutilatedBus]

Great ideas, thanks for sharing. I think you're onto something here. I was theory crafting an incredibly similar build for crossbow/spear centered around 600-1000 heavy attack divebombing people stuck in CC every minute. Death From Above is going to be such an obnoxious ability lol

[@VextGamingEU]

for sure its going to change backline diving, i think spear anything is just a flank squad/flex groups wet dream at this point.

[@alexeypalamarenko8393]

Thanks, Vext for sharing the info for free. This build is very different from the one for wand/dagger: many pieces have changed, and you’ve shifted from evasion to endurance. Are there any alternative, less BIS but at similar to your previous ones? That would be really helpful because otherwise, with minimal game changes, having to switch to a completely new build is huge grind and lots of lucent lost.

[@VextGamingEU]

Lots of people were wanting to work towards harvester 2pc so for those there's minimal chance to my collision resist build. There's always going to be other options though you'd just need to spend time looking at what you have and how it could transition Unfortunately any switches this significant will be costly

[@mikamannermaa5202]

According to the tooltip, the Additional Blitz only works on Gale Rush, which is the Rush that you do against friendlies. Not the Storm Blitz which is against enemies, so slight adjustment on how it plays may be needed. Edit: Having said that, the tooltips have been known to be wrong before.

[@VextGamingEU]

i noticed that but felt it strange as it doesn't track with the skills chain usage unless it adds an additional friendly target charge which would be more insane, i didn't get the time to test it fully on KR which is a pain but tomorrow will get a lot more opportunity

[@maurilurks]

In what order would u be using these skills? I’m excited to see how wand spear would be like!

[@VextGamingEU]

The cc changes made the idea of chain cc redundant and it won't work as originally planned seems to be a non starter of a build

[@gajeel9675]

Hey, nice video! Is there any chance that endurance would also work for Wand/dagger? or do you have a recommendation for Wand/dagger like Meele evasion or Meele/range endurance/evasion? For Small scale I dont know if Magic/range evasion is good.. PS: Im new to this game =) maybe im dumb

[@n.crypted]

Hey man great video and fine explanation on this! As a wand dagger player from day 1 of global, I don't feel confident with wand and spear due to your massive downtime inbetween engagements. Another reason is because most servers are popped by Greatswords, and I feel like two greatsword peelers would be good enough to cancel you during an op. But hey, much is yet to see till later today, and I'm rooting for you especially if you pull this off! I'm planning to go for a Spear/Dagger, but i can easily Pivot to Wand Spear to test and if you do make this work.

[@VextGamingEU]

I dont feel there will be massive downtime, the jump should be around 45-50 seconds give or take and were already playing around 30 second CD's i dont intend on using jump for all engages either be good to see today and hopefuly be ready for pvp tonight on it

[@Fontikx]

What about vampiric build via bloodleeching aura with juns spear?

[@VextGamingEU]

Doesn't seem to do nearly enough for the investment unfortunately

[@maranexpvp7241]

was hoping it would be good for wand. With how its looking to pair with dagger, it will be the perfect 3rd weapon to use with wand/dagger.

[@VextGamingEU]

definitely

[@TheSkullhunter82]

so for this build you suggest to move from evasion to endurance?

[@VextGamingEU]

You'd have to qoth no evasion passive

[@TheSkullhunter82]

@@VextGamingEU i had evasion because i move from evasion tank to wand and dagger. so now i have to focus on ranged and magic end right?

[@andrefrancisco8180]

Thx for video! do you will do build for dagger as well?

[@VextGamingEU]

Possibly yeah

[@andrefrancisco8180]

@@VextGamingEU thx man. you were the reason I swap combo. I m really enjoying wand/dagger!

[@rakennavarro2557]

Isnt Sleep bombs kinda useless now? I mean Sleep now depends in your hit chance and pretty much everyone runs with Magic/Ranged eva builds with Daggers so good luck trying to sleep bomb whiout missing on someone and your combo ending up being interrumpted.

[@VextGamingEU]

Had absolutely no issues whatsoever :) definitely not useless at all and still used heavily by competitive guilds in all pvp

[@phoenixkaigaming]

Yeees I can’t wait to play spear/wand

[@VextGamingEU]

Me too itll be fun to test!

[@phoenixkaigaming]

@ I just hope it allow use to heal allies away from you with Vampiric contract… with dagger wand with a curse applied to enemy you heal the ticks of your weapon attacks. Your able to mark an ally and it’ll heal what ever ally you have marked. Only Bow allows you to be far away for the heal to work on damage. But with dagger you have to be right on top of your ally it feels odd… hopefully spear range is as far as bows…. But yeah seriously I rather be a melee healer. I enjoyed dark blighter… still has a great role but I’m definitely changing to what ever class name they decide to call it I’m it. 😂

[@phoenixkaigaming]

Heavy attack heals 🫶🏽

[@phoenixkaigaming]

My thing is mana regen is doing to be bad….

[@phoenixkaigaming]

Feels like should roll dps/support and bring in party buffs. The damage buff on clay salvation is going to be a staple for me.

[@barunasetyapratama1971]

Thanks for sharing. So its possible to play wand/spear? we need new wand combo with a new skill :)

[@VextGamingEU]

Definitely looks like it'll work

[@barunasetyapratama1971]

@@VextGamingEU Aright, i will be wait for ur build bro, thanks :D

[@Churuya]

Should i buy Tevent Wand now or wait for it to become cheaper? Thats not my main spec, so i dont want to hurry bombing people if it cheaper/expensive in Korea for example.

[@christopherwillson8942]

You really only get the Tevent wand if you're whaling otherwise just get the Leq. Wand

[@VextGamingEU]

Its hard to anticipate pricing but on KR they're not cheap either

[@hfdgsjhdagfh]

How much are they going for in the kr server​@@VextGamingEU

[@popemasta8319]

Now im more excited for spear as im a staff wand user, i know spear will be good with staff but i was wondering about wand, looking forward to this

[@VextGamingEU]

its not looking great :P

@@VextGamingEU :( why

[@Vaguenificent]

@@VextGamingEUwhen’s a new video coming out with how the spear testing went?

[@VextGamingEU]

@@Vaguenificent it went terrible lol not a lot to say I'll try and do a summary soon

[@Vaguenificent]

@VextGamingEU I figured as much just cause it seems it’s more made for dagger, staff & SNS I’m staff/tevent wand & debating if I should go for dagger or stay staff, I’m liking the ability to be able to sleep bomb and all that but I feel like once that’s done and over with that’s it lol do you get some good damage from the dagger alone or do you depend more on your wand for most 1 on 1 engage?

[@pedroernst2645]

Cool!

[@VextGamingEU]

Hoping so :P

[@codex458]

Whaaaaaa… there’s no way I would’ve known any of this…. I mean, not me who’s been saying I’m playing spear/wand since it was announced…. Nooo siiiiirrr not me… who would’ve thoooought any of this would be possible…. Certainly not meee… noooo siiiirr.😂 /s I can’t wait for these couple of hours until it goes live.

[@VextGamingEU]

It's going to be fun!

[@codex458]

@ you’re absolutely right.

[@gaetanotiralongo6795]

Teoriccally u cant sleep people with movement speed decreased, and the death from above slow them
