Hi all I'm an Italian player who finally next week will pass under GOA servers...
Now, I'm playing with 1.60 since 2002 and I've some question to ask about SB of newest patch (1.7x and NF).
I''m using the tp 39 Axe, 39 Lext Axe, 39 Critic and 30 Stealth 29 Envenom in 1.60 but I think that after multiple patches it won't be as good as now... So i want to know which is the best tp for new frontiers!
And also: 2 weapons or one? axe or sword? if 2, what is the best velox?

Thank all!!

Basicaly any of the main specs work tbh, just need a few ToA items and your ready to go.

Your gonna feel like a gimp for a while :( LA nerf is 1.62... but generally the spec hasnt changed much...combined weapon of 51 (spec+rr+skill) high'ish LA and ok CS and usual stealth and rest env :)

at rr3 for critblade
37+14 weapon (dont use any weapon styles from that line)
44+x Critical Strike
35+14 stealth
31+14 envenom
29+14 left axe

at rr3 for shadowzerk
37 weapon
44 or 48 LA
36 stealth
36 envenom
21 or 9 CS

Critblades use CS styles only due to low weapon spec with poor dmg output on weapon (sword/axe) styles if using CS styles that wont be noticed.
same goes for Shadowzerks only with using purely LA styles.


ps. i'd love a server with 1.60 patch and never ever get a new patch ^^

cool scout spec Saifang, how do u do melee against SB?
ive allways wondered how "my" scout spec would work...
30 stealth
45 bow (or 50)
39 thrust
37shield (or 29)

looks pretty promising i think...

you'd still get wtfpnwd by assassins... :( mainly due to dual-wield making your shield useless and your one melee weapon meaning evade evade evade evade evade evade

Don't mean to boast, but the melee is kinda omg, I block equaly to any slam scout also as with MoBlocking3 I have 34% chance from spec, compared to 33.5% with 42+15shield. I found rr4 or below with relics boringly easy mode, can't really say about higher RR assasins as I rarely met them alone if not at all Aloca kicked my bum with good play of abilities tho low RR NS and SB are no problem. Want to make a video soon, but will take some time to gather footage with my limited play hours lately, if your interesting in how it performs.

Can't really gimp a scout, that one your wondering about I had simular before NF, only difference was 42shield 40bow, worked ok, has slam good melee and bow dmg, but doesn't have the UMPH! that you might want. You may want to visit Critshot as they have had many discussions on specing lately.



But back on topic, was about SB's :)

Might want to read up on some guy named Wyrd(spelling?), he's been testing how much specing in lines effect dmg etc.
