Talents
Guide
A PnS build that utilizes hard chase and heavy damage mechanics while running 5 Ethereal for escape situations. We rock Bulwark 4, resil 4 and Curse 3 for that guaranteed stun damage with javelin
It's a heavy hitter that will make sure those pesky strixes stay as far away as humanly possible or face the Wall as we bring them down to the ground
This build also works well against Sorcs and Mercenaries (hammer merc is a hard matchup)
You should avoid trading with hammer merc at all cost, time your javelin hits between their SA stages to catch them for free damage. Do NOT trade with their SA, it's better to cancel your charge than to trade into them because they will always get free hits
Our biggest weaknesses are Black Arrows, Hammer mercenaries and Really skilled Greatsword WK's
This build can solo mistlords with ease while holding your shield to block the most of the damage. Otto is a cakewalk!
