Gearing is pretty straightforward as well. Warden on one tree without a second big damage attack means Wardicator, but the mastery is nice because Laser Sword gains so much from it. Int Mastery just isn’t useful at all with AoPM’s buff, so it had to go with Warden Mastery. Int just squarely hits the -20% sweet spot for Detect Vulnerability too, so that’s perfect for most bosses. With 45.7% Crit Chance using Primary Int’s Expertise spec with 422 Dex, along with Ego Surge, crits come very easily and give a lot of energy to supplement MSA.Īt 52 energy per Focus stack, a single crit can power a full Laser Sword combo without breaking a sweat, much less with MSA ticking in the background as well. It’s a very standard Int/Dex/Con AoPM Form of the Tempest to support the mishmash of damage types on the build. The nice thing about this kind of build is power has an obvious purpose. Pull with Rebuke, throw out Shadow of Doubt like candy to get MSA going, hit single targets with Laser Sword, hit groups with Pyre, heal yourself with Conviction, heal yourself again with Rebuke if Conviction is on cooldown, heal other people with Rebuke, resurrect people with Redemption. The build was originally Primary End with Thermal Reverb and Flashfire, but I had to switch to Primary Int, Molecular Self-Assembly (MSA) and Shadow of Doubt to manage incoming damage from bosses like Gravitar, because she just won’t stop targeting me that purpose, Shadow of Doubt works as well as Jellen did in Phantasy Star, and it’s great support for other tanks against Frosty or other party members in Gravitar too. Shadow of Doubt is Jellen, a damage debuff in the original game which was afterthought at first, but I had to throw it in after seeing the aggro it pulled. Rebuke is Resta and Grants rolled into one, Redemption is Giresta and the list goes on. It has Pyre, because that’s Gifoie to let it burn like Ellie Goulding. Laser Sword‘s base damage is very nice, but with Hybrid mode, you get no threat reduction, so when you hit hard and have no threat reduction, expect things to want to kill you.įunctionally, all the techniques I wanted from Phantasy Star have a rough equivalent in Champions.
No Phantasy Star melee character is complete without lightsabers, so this build has Laser Sword.
Overall, Etincelle does all the things I’d expect a Wartecher to do – sometimes a little too well because she pulls aggro a LOT! But is honestly one of my favorite Champions Online builds to play right now. a character that is survivable, hits hard in melee and has an assortment of pseudo-magical techniques to do stuff pseudo-magical techniques are supposed to do, like buff, debuff, heal, resurrect and hit things at range.
I’m a big fan of the Phantasy Star series, and I always wanted to make a Wartecher kind of build in CO, i.e.
