Well I'd say you're improving. There was one time in that video when dashing and fading in combo was a net positive. Though to be honest, it just seems like your defense is not up for blocking. In BM1, an FB's HP shouldn't be moving at all really with fewer than six or seven people or it just plain isn't effective. Backing out after a few seconds before actually killing anyone in a group is kind of a no-op.
Thanks. My defence isn't the greatest nor my resist and tend to have a huge target on my back. Honestly my intentions were to just distract them because I knew that i'd just die going into a huge group like that. Did manage to get a warrior and a wiz and think a bl's attention for a few seconds. That was my goal, to slow the push a tad bit. Was worried about being rooted so I tried to stay on the outside that way if I got rooted it wasn't right in the middle of the group where I'd just roll over and die.
Appreciate you pointing those things out though. I'll keep them in mind.
in the first kill where you rooted the Blader, was there really a point in dashing for such a short distance, mind you, when he's rooted?
nice tactic on the distracting though, wish fade in combo actually detargeted
I dash every time there's a distance between me and the person im trying to kill. Unless my force kick isn't on cooldown then i'll tend to use that instead. Think that If i had used a filler without dashing my character would have walked a bit before he engaged. Also, don't like to start my attacks with sod or cataclysm even if they are rooted. Dash/Fade is 2nd nature to me at this point. Takes no effort anymore, its muscle memory.
Thanks, would like to improve as a player and any constructive criticism is welcomed.
Will be uploading another one this coming monday, hope to keep you guys entertained for the next few weeks maybe months.
Awesome sig BTW, cracked up the first time saw it lol.
When attacking in a big pack of enemies he starts to do fillers and HP downs on 1 guy only. Whenever he tries to do 3 big AoEs, his combo stops because of lag and Downs from enemies. The guy is good at running away.
Fun fact, some HP absorb and high limit per hit, can make AoE heavy combos make you last longer when surrounded.
Am not trying to play for score. If score was my goal then yes i'd stick to my aoe's. Trying to kill someone by spamming aoe's isn't going to do that unless i outgeared them by a lot which i don't. High hp absorb and hp limit is not going to save you from 5 guys teaming up on you unless you have the defence and resist crit dmg to back it up. HR 20 is not sufficient alone. These days everyone is walking around with +15 forcy weapon and a lot with amp sloted gear.
Ive noticed a huge difference from say 4-5 months ago in dps compared to now. Before I was much less geared and could withstand an entire root. Now I'm more geared and die almost instantly. Ive adapted my gameplay to people's dps. So yes, i do run a lot because im very well aware of 1 root = death. In the end I'm contributing to my nation. 1 person distracting a group of people worth it? Think a lot of people would agree it is.
What are you doing in war? Farming? I like farmers, we need them and i get to do what I like because of them which is defend but you guys dont do anything special. Anyone can do it.

got called out for macro comboing on stream
I deserve a mention on that list too pls
If you're dying in one root, you shouldn't be engaging in that situation to start with.
To really be effective defending you have to either make the opponents hit *you*, or kill them outright. I think it's clear you don't wipe out waves, so your only remaining option is to make caps hit you instead of the guard. But when they do that, you run within a few seconds.
Look at this. Before other people showed up, notice how all five procs are hitting me (and debuffing, which I notice you rarely get if at all). Those 30 seconds, three of them wasted 20% of their BM3 time and 2/3 of the FB blew their root. Not only that, but I got my team to come kill them because I knew I wouldn't do enough damage on my own. When I backed out, it was after 50 seconds of constantly taking damage.
Or here. Within one combo they were all either dead or low enough the wizards could pick them off, and they had done a whopping 3k damage to me as well as wasting a panic cry.
Or here. Are you really sure one root is one kill for everyone? How many procs do you think are there? I count eleven or twelve. After the root hits, only two or three are actually hitting the guard. Not to mention pretty much every debuff in the book except for panic cry. At the end of the first root, my HP is somewhere around 45-50k.
Notice how technical ability is essentially of zero importance.
If you can't do things like that, it's very likely defending is not an effective strategy for contributing to your nation. If it's just what you like best and that's why you do it, that's fine.
Didn't say for everyone. Was obviously speaking of myself. Also the roots don;t ALWAYS kill me. Sometimes they don't even have a FB pushing with them which makes my defending a lot easier.
Any time off the guard is dps wasted. If i can manage to get them to concentrate on me for 10-20 seconds then thats worth defending for. My defending isn't as bad as I'm making it out to be. Pretty obnoxious when it comes to it.
This thread made me become autistic. I'm out. I can only count to potato :C
BTW a lot of innovators showed signs of autism including albert einstein.
Ten seconds really isn't worth it. You spend 20-30 seconds moving there, then 20-30 seconds moving back to being useful. So in total you're actually spending 50-70 seconds to spend ten of theirs. I've seen how fast your HP drops when you're fighting people who actually matter.
I'm all for you enjoying yourself and doing what is fun for you in war. But don't try and flatter yourself by thinking it's the most useful thing for you to be doing.
even 10 seconds is worth it. Lets assume there are 6 people hitting guard and lets assume they are each hitting 8k each. You do the math. Thats a lot of damage wasted for 10-20 seconds.
I'm being logical you just refuse to accept you are wrong. Its who you are and thats fine i don't care what you think because I know what i'm doing. Not here to change your opinion. Its just that to me. Everything that is said i take into consideration but if you get over your ego and really think about it u'll realize it is productive and it does benefit the nation. It's all about being smart and knowing when to defend and when to farm. Apparently not many people understand the technical aspect of war.
Want to make it clear that everything you guys say i take into consideration even if it's against what i believe to be right. I'm not full of myself like a lot of you guys are. Stay open minded about things people suggest and in fact love the suggestions even if a lot of them are people just flaming.. cough cough derale or delay or w/e da fak ur name is lmao!
Anyways I'm done. Enjoy the video/s. Only wanted to post my stuff for the people who actually appreciate it. Will be posting a new video possibly monday or thursday. Whenever feeling not lazy :D.
Selling 190 GL pretty cheap if anyone cares. Has event gear/arionel/both rings/most runes trying to get rid of it quick so selling it dirt cheap. Pm if you are interrested.
Saying I'm wrong doesn't make me wrong. =/
I didn't post the clips to boost my ego. If that's what you think then you missed the point. I will try to be more clear.
If you can't sit in a group (group meaning five or more people, not one or two or three) of their strongest players for 45-60 seconds, or kill them all before backing out, you have no business defending. That's just how it is.
I would never think of defending if I didn't have 25k defense abilities.
You spent twice as long trying to say I'm all about ego as you did actually supporting your point. My ego isn't what makes me tank.
And if you're saying that you don't tank as well because your gear isn't as good, that is exactly right. So don't try.
How much alz for dance classes with you?
I want your moves Xd
Remember in BI?
The side to side. Xddd

Toshiro it is a bad defending, If you notice, they don't even try to hit you, and their FB could easily run out and root you and just go back to kill guard.(idk why he doesn't do that haha)
Jesus is too outgeared people now. If everyone have your money, you would not be able to stand there for 60 sec and tank. If you meet 5 with the same gear level as you, they would hit 5k crit on you (or if they have a BL with aof available) you would not be able to withstand one root. FB is not the class to solo tank like that it is just this game is broken that why FB can do this stuff.
Btw, the way you deal with tanky people is by not hitting them when they try to defend, if they try to kill you, run and comeback, if you get root and die, use odd (depend on the situation). One person can only do that much to a team :)
Where is jesus now btw o.o quit ?
Of course I wouldn't defend if people were hitting me 5k. But they don't. If you watch the video, there are a lot of 100-300's, some 500-700's, and like one person in each situation hitting about 1k. Cherry (who I hear people talk about having huge damage a lot, and out gears me) hits around 1.3k. They've got a long way to go for 5k.
I don't think it happens much in the war I recorded but with FB the majority of my roots are to keep people doing nothing in the middle of nowhere for 20 seconds. I know I've made people mad with that and they probably call me a coward but hitting the guard is more important. :)
ETA: Toshi is correct, I don't play on the FB anymore, all the gear is still there though.
FB are the worst DPS class btw, and I know cherry, she had like 2 slot amp the most in that video and her weapon was not 8 amp 40 cd FC either.
and enso has like 0 slot amp on fb
he does no damage right?LMAO
My point is cherry wasn't that great and FB dps is not good either that why she deals low damage on jesus. How many amp jesus has doesn't make him any tankier.
BTW I don't think cherry had more gear than jesus. (in term of alz).
For what it's worth, I agree that FB has one of the worst DPS out of the classes when it comes to PvP. Cherry was just an easy example to pick out since people hype him up quite a bit and he was around when it wasn't 10+ people in frame. However, it is abundantly clear from that video no one was hitting anywhere near 5k.
Double amp pieces for highest is PRICY and at least double amp of each piece is alot already
Assuming it's 9b; 6x9 =54b from scrolls ALONE
Cherry may or may not have the 42/8 blade in the video but doesn't mean he isn't out gearing every other fb
Jesus is using what empty/mcr forc at best with a 40 cdi/80mp helm for armor (with ext 3/4 and 4/4 on boot) and you're telling me that's more pricy than double amp pieces? uhhh
I meant she only had like 2 scroll amp.
The thing about damage is that it become a lot stronger when you "break" your opponent "defense" (it hard to explain it clearly and please don't take the word in "" literally).
I believe with 100 bil I can make a WI hit you 5k or more with aofc. (i think your gear is about that much)
I said 100b because I think your set is about 100b, it is just an estimated, who can be correct about these stuff.... (i heard that you have 8/40 FC weapon and belt 15 and ext 4 stuffs, I thought they should add up to 100b).
The difference between a WA or FS and FB in defense is not that much (the real difference is HP not from def). I believe if I do 5k on your FB, i would do like 4k5 on WA or FS with your gear.
Enso's fs was WAY more tanky than the fb and that's without the 15 guard. I don't think you'll even scratch it.
