I have a sword build so plz dont suggest any axe or hammer skills here. Well I dont know if i shoould use crippling slash with gash, dragon slash or quivering blade. Another skill ive been thinking about is Hundred blades. Any suggestions?

For pve, whatever floats ur boat. With the new FGJ a dragon slash build is quite fun. Crippling slash is not really that useful in pve and quivering blade is imo not as good as dragon but still not bad (4 adren galrath)

For pvp, whatever ur guild's build requires usually crippling is the elite of choice (i think...)

Hundred Blades sucks.
Quivering Blade is myeh at best.
Crippling Slash is decent enough, has its uses keeping melee off your squishies.
Dragon Slash is where it's at though, chaining +42 sword attacks ad infinitum wins PvE.

in Hardmode crippling slash is awesome, as it stops your foes from running in endless circles.

Dragonslash, specially with FGJ, simply owns faces ^^

PvE? Dragon Slash, most probably.
PvP? Crippling Slash, most probably.

Dragon slash, no question.

Off topic - Alex, how on earth did you miss the massive cat thread last night? You're the guru patron saint of random cat pictures or something.

Massive cat thread?
... Where? What? When?

... I'm sorry, but... I've been going through a lot lately, you know?
Was probably crying over the internet, pouring my heart into a depressing poem, or slitting my wrists...
Pick one

And... Can I get a special title for being a Saint?

Crippling Slash is roxor in HM, lets my squishes kite. DSlash pretty much eats PvE NM though

Arkantos · Aug 23, 2007, 09:17 AM // 09:17

D Slash for sure. That along with a conjure and the buffed FGJ, you'll simply own.

Conjure > FGJ > D Slash > S&M > D Slash > S&M > D Slash > S&M

20 seconds of rampage.

stueyman2099 · Aug 23, 2007, 09:37 AM // 09:37

Disagree with that combo there. Should look more like

Conjure -> FGJ -> Dslash -> Dslash ->Dslash -> Dslash ->Dslash -> Dslash ->Dslash -> Dslash ->Dslash -> Dslash

Arkantos · Aug 23, 2007, 10:41 AM // 10:41

I still prefer having s&m in there, provides a hell of a lot extra damage. 2 hits, 2 conjures, unblockable.

stueyman2099 · Aug 24, 2007, 11:14 AM // 11:14

The dragon slash actualy ends up doing more damage. at 16 spec you're looking at a +42 (which is armor ignoring unlike the conjure bonus) as well as the conjure bonus. Against higher level enemies with high armor, this wins out. Against a 60 AL, it's close, but I'm pretty sure that the d slash still wins. Don't get me wrong, I have s&m in there too, but when fgj goes up, its masht eh 3 button till it breaks time.

blue.rellik · Aug 24, 2007, 12:11 PM // 12:11

Well S&M would be used when FGJ runs out

Both pretty much rapes face though

Age · Aug 24, 2007, 10:26 PM // 22:26

For both PvP and PvE Dragon Slash and put together a 4 attack chain.

jimmyboveto · Aug 29, 2007, 03:46 AM // 03:46

Y, D-slash for sure. Check out the build I posted, been using it more and have been able to consistently H/H places in HM around Cantha with no problems. Just make sure to take enduring harmony, its a must have for any FGJ build.

For PvP... crip slash usually does the trick. There are many warriors running conjure crip builds in RA/TA nowadays.
