And THANK YOU for the wonderful page. It's really saved me a lot of headache, and I'm sure it'll do the same for everyone else. And I'm looking forward to it. Thank you in advance!
Thanks for the equipment overviews. The sets are more straightforward than I was thinking they would be. One note on the AradDB, is that after choosing a class, at the top left there is a blue "equipment use" button, which tallies up all the top 100 players and sorts each gear by it's pick rate. No, it's not a complete build, but it at least keys in on what the core gears are for the character. My F.Brawl for instance, it's rather obvious that it's mandatory to get the poison bracelet.
These are just the "meta picks" that most people end up using. There are some very interesting (and silly) builds that aren't featured on the page, so maybe look into those too! Also, GOOD POINT. I should've shown that in the video. Next time for sure.
Dang, this is what I've been looking for, didn't knew the guys who made gear farming for spectre event to also make this, that really makes things faster. I'm interested in Freeze status builds, shame there are no presets for them... My Asura would be thankful for them since he freezes things all the time
Great video. Very essential for a returning player. I’m from the OV2 OV3 era (aka very straightforward) and this was starting to give me a headache with all the different builds. Thank you for this information!!
Smh I was set on a Bleed build the instant 110 cap dropped and am already part way through it and here comes this video 😔 jokes aside thanks for the heads up and explanations, was really confused on how I'd build out my other characters, this website's a godsend.
Just in case you may have misunderstood, Bleed is absolutely the most popular build as it does the damage very quickly. But the other Bleed pieces are just alright. The shoulder is quite good, but if you want to use the ring, you need to use the belt too.
@@vandal3136 I wouldn't recommend using Ender's Gaze without the Genius Engineer's Belt (Reversible Leather Coat and/or Accelerator are also okay), as the +175% MP Cost Increase on it is kind of absurd without a way to recover some MP back. However, [Ender's Gaze, Genius Engineer's Belt, Genius Engineer's Boots] is the holy trinity that almost everyone uses for raw damage output, so definitely keep it!
Thanks for the useful guide. I still find it quite difficult to choose a build for each of my characters. On AradDB the builds showcased are most of the time unattainable. Either they use the whale equipment, or Advanced equipment that I can't access because I'm too weak. So if I'm trying to find out which build would be best for a character, how would I do that? AradDB only leaves me more confused.
There are a few ways to approach this: 1) Knowing exactly what kind of playstyle you want for a character (e.g., focus on lower leveled skills, a lot of speed, very low cooldowns, a bunch of fun elemental procs, just a ton of raw damage, etc.). Once you've kind of got a general image of how you want to do content on the character, it'll be (hopefully) easier to narrow down what kind of setup you want via process of elimination. 2) Aiming for meta setups from the start that are proven to be effective: Mana Burn, Archon, Command, Cybernetic Speed, Status, etc. And prioritizing key pieces from dungeons that don't drop anything else so you can maximize your FP efficiency (e.g., Heightened Fury is the only piece that drops from EFL, so select it from a box and run Nasau Forest for Mana Burn pieces). 3) Picking up and using whatever epics you get, constantly running content and experimenting with whatever you find along the way, and seeing if you can comfortably transition into an effective setup at a certain point. This is mostly for alt characters that you're not necessarily investing any resources into, but it can also help you learn the strengths, weaknesses, limits, etc. of gear combinations much more directly. If you want more specific questions or opinions, please feel free to DM on Discord.
I don't know if I am blind or not, but there are some epics missing from DFcat that are listed on builds on AradDB. They don't drop from any of the normal dungeons, so do they drop from the advanced dungeons?
There are bottoms, sub-equip, and a magic stone from Meisters' Lab, which we will get in September. They're all very strong, but have some possibly costly conditions (e.g., total equipment quality being over 1100%, total reinforcement/amplification scaling bonuses, etc.)
@@SynchroneityDFO Thanks homie. I had figured it was Korea only after checking Noblesse and Castle of the Dead Drops. Thanks for taking the time to respond to my comment.
since arad db doesnt work anymore, is there anything else in english which i can use to look up top players? and could you recommend a specific build for male striker?
You can use DFCat's ranking page here: dfcat.net/rank I'll probably make a short video explaining on how to navigate the page soon, as soon as I have some free time. Also, Male Striker builds are kind of all over the place. Most Strikers use Rhombus earrings, so they max skills like Flash Kick, Mountain Pusher, Bone Crusher, etc. Some people max Lightning Dance, some people max Flame Tornado Kick, a few max Spin Kick and/or Whirlwind Kick. It's honestly up to you.
Generally, I would only recommend replacing bits and pieces to replace set effects. For example, if you're using a proper 5/3/3, I would only start replacing your accessories or special equipment when you can replace all of them with 105 epics (with the exception of a Mythic, which you can keep using); while for armor, you can start replacing them with two or three pieces. As for 3/3/3/2 setups, same deal. Replace entire sets with 105 epics when possible until you're fully in 105 epics (with a Mythic, ideally).
@@SynchroneityDFO hi, sorry to bother you again. but does this apply even if replacing say your accessories set will break your ozma / sirocco set? or in those cases should i wait till i get 11/11 first? ty again!
@@rinuskoe99 You can hold off until you can replace all three Sirocco slots if you want (especially if you don't have a 105 weapon yet), but Ozma set effects don't matter at all.
Mana Burn is solid and very flexible. You can watch my video on it here: ruclips.net/video/7NTHSCMnaCQ/видео.html Personally, I recommend the Archon build to get started, which I'll be uploading a video of very soon, so please look forward to it. And lastly, the popular late-game setup is the Command build, which involves manually inputting your skills for damage increases and cooldown reduction. It's really strong, but... yeah. Manualling all of your skills can be kind of a pain.
An optimized Mana Burn setup is (currently) a fair bit stronger than Archon. However, I personally find that Spectre's base MP costs are VERY high, and you'll find yourself running out of MP very quickly with so many MP Cost Increase options. That, and Archon will be getting some nice buffs in the near future, so it's a good starting place, imo.
@@SynchroneityDFO I heard some people use only 3 piece mana burn, what other pieces do you recommend for only 3 piece mana burn? Is this a good compromise, or would Archon still be much stronger than this hybrid build?
tactical support is pretty strong, it fits in a lot of sets and has great dmg vaule and utility (by recovering hp/mp). what do you think about touch control panel in terms of damage? kind thinking to swap
If you're referring to the Tactical Prop Drone subequip, yes, it's a very good universal subequip. But if you can maintain 90%+ MP fairly easily, I'd say Touch Control Panel is a clear winner, as having to pick up the boxes can break your rhythm (and is sometimes impossible to get to right away).
A lot of the item details on the website don't match perfectly with what's actually in game. The poison set belt for instance; it actually gives you 1 of the 3 effects of either speed, cdr, or skill atk; not all 3. Just make sure you look in DFOpedia in game as well to match the details.
- Mana Burn is questionable on, as his MP costs are quite high. - Archon is pretty good, and becomes much stronger later. - Command setup is VERY good, but naturally requires you to use manual inputs for your skills. - Object build is also extremely good, but only if you'll exclusively be soloing. - You can always transition into a Cybernetic Speed setup, status setup, petrification setup, etc. later on, as you unlock higher content.
Hey friend a have a question, i get from the event of Fame Up, the level 105 equipment for free but... I end up choosing the equipment whit the bleed efect, the 5 pieces of armor, the necklace, ring, brazzelet and the other 3 sub equipment. Now a side of the bleeding efect, when I use skills whit high mana price, my hp is depleted to 54 - 60%. This effect can be solved? Or should I just use other set until I get a better set level 105? Also I use it in my Neo Avenger.
Could you maybe take a screenshot of your setup? Skills shouldn't be depleting your HP unless you're using things like Manipulation, Destroyed Life, Chaos Curtains, etc.
@@SynchroneityDFO Mmmm I will see if I have any of those equip, thank you very much. I remenber some of the artefacts, i have equiped: Lie after Lie, Inner Face, Corrupt Soul, Painful Wound Bound Freedom, Black Star, Cursed Heart. I think those are all, that are accesories.
Would you happen to know which one would be good for who? I've reached lvl105 on a Kunoichi though I have no idea what's good for what and I don't wanna just throw on random items on her lmao
Kunoichi does VERY well with the Command setup (Rightful Duty + High Tech Boots, e.g., i.imgur.com/a8xgSiR.png), buuuuut it means you have to play her fully manual. If that doesn't sound like something you want to deal with, you can absolutely just go for something like a normal Archon build, e.g., i.imgur.com/aVRQMrw.png There isn't really a wrong choice in terms of setups, to be honest.
You can't really go wrong with a Mana Burn setup (you can watch my video on it if necessary). For Dragoon specifically, Rhombus earrings and Gray Cat Stone are recommended (though not required).
Way at the top on the right, you can click on "Normal" to only show the normal dungeons, and "Extended" to show the advanced dungeons. Unless you mean the map layout that shows when you click on the dungeons; make sure you do NOT click on the advanced dungeons first. For some reason, that seems to bug out the rest of them.
@@darthrevan8 Right, so don't click on the advanced dungeons (Noblesse Code & Castle of the Dead). Those don't have typical map layouts. If you HAVE clicked them, hit the X at the top right and click on a different one.
Looking for a good soul bender set that will buff my summons and what not. Also looking for a set up that can farm fairly easy solo. Tried to make sense of site but couldnt given some of the items seem to not be listed as epics.
I would personally recommend starting with Mana Burn with Rhombus earrings and Gray Cat stone, and maybe transitioning into a different build down the line. e.g., i.imgur.com/SLeKllc.png I do also recommend the Culmination weapon, as it makes Kalla incredibly powerful.
@@SynchroneityDFO Thanks i will try some of that im a katana build and using land of primordial beginning torso. I got the earring them pieces of epics might give me a road map.
