Arrow Ripotise Builds

Post your ripotise builds here
THERES MINE I ALREAD PUT IT IN ANTOHER POST THO
((((Taking more than a minute to kill a group/wurm form a pro build is junk!))))
Alright i know theres alot of ripotsie builds out there but i felt i shoudl make my own if u have the same build dont worry i didnt steal it i made this all on my own
(((((Ive only done one 15 atr quest)))))
TACTICS- 12 +1 rune i strongly suggest buying a tactics helm but im to cheap to get a new one lol
STRENGTH- 10 +1 rune (put more if u can)
SWORDMANSHIP- whatever you hae left +1 rune +1 hat (dont get the hat if u have a tactics one)

Now first things first, desert griffons, these are legendary for poping golds, not to mention the gold coin drops arent that bad, even since the nerf they still drop a lil good. Now the first choice is destinys gorge, just run outside to the scar and this map shoudl tell you the rest, try to look around for the lone sand wurm, just keep up dolyak and glads when its recharged only use sheild/bonettis if u go bellow 50% hp

heres me

Now next up is sand wurms, eh the bleached shells dont sell very well any more but sometimes theyll drop golds and u might run across the occasional shell buyer (or u can try and sell collector shields >_<) Now to start go out dunes of despair and take the first left, sprint past those RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOers until they stop follow then go activate/ go through the portal, then u have 2 choices u can go left and kill all the griffons/sand drakes u can find or go up and run through that area with alot of big rock pillars, go to the rcok pillars run around killign all the wurms then go back and kill all those griffs and drakes, heres the map

2 wurms!!!!

Alright to wrap it up (i might update it later) theres the droks trolls, now this can be tricky with my build jsut use ur inner proness, i know u have it, if u want tweak it a lil bit hell even post the changes, just try to ALWAYS have a stanc eup and rember that bonetis ends when u use a skill, with that in my here are my screens/map

heres some dead ones i forgot to screen shot when they were fighting

heres the profits of exactly ONE run no golds but still some money raked in

lol the emote was supposed to be a cheer looks liek the robot or soem shit lol
neways ill update this with more meele ownage farming if i can find more to do wiht my ripotise

I dislike the fact that the Riposte skills are sword only but I'd like to find out an axe variation of this build.

This comes to mind...

16 Tactics
12 Strength
Rest to Axe Mastery maybe?

Gladiator's Defense {E}
Bonetti's Defense
Watch Yourself
Dolyak Signet
Cyclone Axe
Shield Stance
Sprint
Healing Signet

Bwahah! Though lacking the fight-back power of the Ripostes, it still can generate a TON of it's own self-healing hp and armor and with a strong Adrenal engine like Cyclone Axe, Bonetti's and Watch Yourself can be up for a helluva long time... ^_^

I use:

Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Gladiator's Defense {E}
Shield Stance
Sprint
Healing Breeze
Mending
Healing Signet

With Mending on I only need to use Heal Signet when I have a lot of mobs on me, or when fighting spellcasting crits like Hydra, and Healing Breeze is for emergency when Mending gets removed or something.

Max Tactics, 8 Healing, the rest in Sword - since Rip/DR/Glad depend on tactics for dmg, not on your sword skill.

A Riposte is a fencing manoeuvre, and you can't fence with axes. Um...just thought you'd like to know.

Here is my griffon farming build:

gladiators defence (e)-get it from last mission in the desert
bonettis defence
riposte
deadly riposte
heal signet
mending
balthazars spirit
healing breeze

the stratergie is to first cast the two enchantments.
In the fight keep the stances on at all times and when you renew bonettis defence before you do do both ripostes
Allways remeber that bonettis ends when u use a skill.

i use
8 healing
12 tactics(+3+1)
the rest in smite

The best things are the skills are all very easy to get AND you don't have any points in sword so You don't need to find an uber sword all it takes is 100g to but a superoir tactics rune.

from what i can see in the first pic is that you have swordmanship at 6 but your using a sword that requires swordmanship of 12.

surely you dont get full mods off the sword then wouldnt that be a waste of using that sword for not being able to have full usage of the mods on it

I like my build. It is intended to kill griffons as fast as possible. I prefer killing them in goups of three as fast as possible than 9 at a time but slowly because u need to heal. So here it goes

Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Hundred Blades (E) or flurry : both can get adrenaline fast
Thrill of Victory
Dolyak Signet
Bonetti's when your energy gets below 5
Mending
Whatever u want (Healing signet recommended if u want to solo more than 5/6 at a time) or sprint

With mending on u won't need to heal so all u have to do is spam ripostes and HB. If u solo a group of 3 they'll drop fast cause u'll get more ripostes per griffon.

I've also farmed Sand wurms and Hydras with this build (for the hydras u'll need healing signet) and also sand giants (but that's too risky cause)
