Zweihander+1 applies Breach on hit and those weapon-given ailments get 100% to be inflicted when used with those skills which can't be dodged. Fear+Breach in a single blow is a very interesting combo.
This has been my go to and it has been devastating even though its not the highest damage weapon. It allows you to absolutely shred any enemy not immune to fear and even those immune really don't enjoy being breached
if you craft +1 leggins you can move further than Vyce with some classes, it gives you an opportunity to heal. also inflicting falsestrike on Vyce and dodge on yourself with consumables you can dodge tank the battle. It's a tricky battle for new comers, but utilizing things given to you makes it a lot easier.
Very ggood guide, before going in depth with specific class builds Id love a general class overview of all the classes, with the pros and cons for each on a base level :)
Amazing tips and guide I went with berzerker Denam and with berzerk and High impact been able to hit for like 800 - 1200 dmg on 3 targets it has been insane.
I'd argue that a +1 Zweihander would be better than a +1 Baldur Blade, the slightly higher damage and int boost of the Baldur Blade is nice, but the breach effect on the Zweihander combined with the fact that skills like fearful Impact guarantee on hit effects Guaranteeing that breach more than makes up for the damage difference imo
I know this video is a year old but I just wanted to say that I took on vyce with a terror knight denam and had given him 3 mending salves and I was able to eek out a victory 😂. It’s possible just not likely
In vanilla TO, used to be able to level as a ninja for a bit to counter the speed loss caused from the equipment and slow growth of the Terror Knights speed. Not sure if it works in reborn but might be worth a try.
Good video, But you skipped character creation 😕 I recommend a Mind build +HP for Terror Knight. Choose cards: Sun, Hanged-Man, Empress, Death, Lovers- ideally but Magician, Strength or Temperence work as well, This will give you the max on mind skill helping all your terror debuff spells
There is an item that inflicts weaken on enemies and I don't think anyone is immune to it. Use it on these bosses and you will cut their damage by like half. If you use the fortify item on yourself at the start its even better. Vyce will be doing like 100-200 damage on you with his finishers.
I didn't have much problem with that final battle in chapter two, I had Denam as a Terror Knight as well but I also ran three mend leaves +3 and tried to keep my distance, using my offhand crossbow to whittle him down a bit and gain a bit extra mp while making sure to pick up all the attack up and crit up cards to make sure the enemy couldn't get them I was also running hammers and had Denam as a knight for the better half of chapter 1
I had my Denam as a Rune Fencer and was able to beat Vyce pretty easily, but Leonar is just impossible. Even with lucky card drops, early skill activations and a quickness buff he can use finishers every single turn for over half your health. I'd like to see a video on how to beat him - I know ninja with a bow is an option, but I'd like to know if there are any other viable strategies for it
Are you fighting him alone or in a group? In chaos route he challenges you to a solo duel and I laughed and went "naw brah. Fight my fam." That definitely made life easier. I also tricked him into killing my ninja, and landing on a debuff card. That was wonderful.
Thoroughly confused as to where there's a spoiler, honestly. Explaining combat mechanics isn't a spoiler, really. If someone were to tell you about the beautiful character interactions that happened before and after the fight, then yea. And I won't do that here 'Cause the content creator for these videos seems to like to keep things chill. So I'll respect that vibe.
Heey I'm getting to chapter 4 now would be REALLY nice if you gave us a guide about how to recruit Deneb, as it is a task which should start early on! Thank you
Darn. Does fast-swapping to Knight ASAP at the start and maxing out with it until you gain access to Dark Knight cause a very big problem, or should the stat differences be relatively minor and not matter too much? Knight's been great as a "babysitting class" where no matter what happens, I know that specific unit will never be in any meaningful danger, and is able to provide life support to others.
That shouldn't cause any major issues for you. You just might need to level a new weapon skill but that isn't hard, and stat wise TKs and Knights are quite similar.
Not a problem dude! I keep up where I can. 😁 It's almost never worth restarting, as with charms and the World rewind system there are very few mistakes you can't rectify.
it's not as terrifying as an old man running around in light armor and hitting people with caldia or the other fan. it's a bit less painfully slow like that
Terror Knight with Zweihander is better than Baldur Blade imo. Zwei +1 causes breach on hit making your Terror knight (Pancakes in my game not Denem) into a debuffing fiend. Anything not feared is breached.
my denam killed vyce in warrior class, all i need to do is to change denam element to vyce's element weakness which in my case was air, killed vyce in 2 hits as denam slash with his warrior crit buff dealing 500+ crit damage
Hello. I went to the Forrest dungeon and recruited multiple fae in there using Canopus. Just get them low enough health and make sure u move Canopus right next to the fae unit to recruit. From wat I can see, if you look at a unit's information, you can inspect the characters name and see how they feel about you and that might be wat makes them likely or less likely to be recruited

Not at all. Have you gotten to the end of Chapter 1? If not, don't read on. The choice at the end of chapter 1 dictates if you take the Law or Chaos path.
Thanks for the guide! Terror Knight Denam is pretty fun but I’m considering making him a warrior again eventually. We’ll see how warrior stands in later chapters. Haven’t been one since chapter 1
@@TitaniumLegman Warrior and swordmasters deal humongous burst damage ..Best melee damage dealers. Double impact with a 2 hander and inthe case of swordmasters mighty + fallinblade combo Will score about 600 damage as far as level 28 . This Will 1 hit ko most squishies. So.. Warrior : damage tanking monster . Swordmaster: damage dealing monster with support . Side note. Swordmaster kinda mitigate the fear effects with their buffing dances . Even breach can be removed with said dances bcuz the fortify buff overides the breach debuff.
I put a timestamp and warning at the start of the video, and warned people that I was going to discuss spoilers with a five second countdown before doing so. How much more do I need to do?
Not quite. Instill shadow grants you bonus damage. You get bonus damage on any damage you deal to an enemy that has an element you are effective against. These are two different mechanics.
Should still have time. I kept Denam a warrior through the PSP version to Rogue and then Ninja; this time I quick changed him to berserker for the start.

Loving this too.
Absolutely been using this weapon on a terror knight and the Voulge + 1 on rune fencers to butter up the crowds

I just used two healing salves and tanked the hits. Not very flashy but I did prevail. Luckily I procced meditation numerous times.
in the previous encounter (before the duel encounter) with vyce I used item to give him weaken status, but his finisher moves still hit like a truck
Terror knights make chapter 2 a breeze. Fear is one of the best debuff in the game.
Especially when you combine that with the claymore plus one
Breached and fears opponents are a breeze
Nice! I was wanting a guide going over terror knight builds and how they changed from the previous release.
I'll probably do a more in depth guide once I make more progress and see more about how they play, but I hope this one helps!
Very ggood guide, before going in depth with specific class builds Id love a general class overview of all the classes, with the pros and cons for each on a base level :)
Ooh that's a solid idea, I'm adding that to the list.
Yes please.
Check the new vids!
Very informative! You just got a sub!
Well thanks friend! I'm glad you found it informative.
Amazing tips and guide I went with berzerker Denam and with berzerk and High impact been able to hit for like 800 - 1200 dmg on 3 targets it has been insane.
Yeah I definitely want to try 'Zerker Denam that sounds like a blast. I'm glad you're liking the guides!
I'd argue that a +1 Zweihander would be better than a +1 Baldur Blade, the slightly higher damage and int boost of the Baldur Blade is nice, but the breach effect on the Zweihander combined with the fact that skills like fearful Impact guarantee on hit effects
Guaranteeing that breach more than makes up for the damage difference imo
You should use 2H with breached. That with feared is insane
IMO drop the baldur blade and pick yourself up a zweihander +1 having the breach effect and fear is devastating
any effect on chapter 2 battle of 1v1 with vice ?
I coincidentally finished Chapter 2 with Terror Knight Denam yesterday. I took Vyce on hit and run with Drain Heart.
Oh the Drain Heart play was smart, well done.

Not a problem dude! I keep up where I can. 😁 It's almost never worth restarting, as with charms and the World rewind system there are very few mistakes you can't rectify.
Three White Knights, Gildas Ravness, and Mirdyn builds. The three of them together with Velocity shift are broken.
this xD I only got 2 but Velocity is insane xD
Agreed velocity is 👌 Lets keep it quiet though so they don’t nerf!
How broken?
Velocity shift is just free speed, essentially making your whole team 30-40% faster for ko cost. By my estimate.
at the end of chapter 3 i had to revive my white knights a lot, so many free turns.
Is it better for terror knight in thunder element for 2h sword skill or dark for dark instill?
I prefer Dark, but realistically both work well.
it's not as terrifying as an old man running around in light armor and hitting people with caldia or the other fan.
it's a bit less painfully slow like that
Having gone Defense focused Terror knight, Breached and applying weakness to Vyce made the fight a breeze.
Yeah, coming back to this now I can definitely see how I'd handle this.
Terror Knight with Zweihander is better than Baldur Blade imo. Zwei +1 causes breach on hit making your Terror knight (Pancakes in my game not Denem) into a debuffing fiend. Anything not feared is breached.
Fair! I didn't have a zweihander at the time tho.
I almost always do a Ninja Denam, but this is interesting...
Ninja Denam would be great as well I'm sure, but I do love this TK build.
Bro...once your addicted to Vigor, its hard to get off it.. Need to go to rehab.
This was my exact build for chapter 2 except had pincer attack in place of constitution and 2 hand hammer
Oh yeah I can see that working too!
my denam killed vyce in warrior class, all i need to do is to change denam element to vyce's element weakness which in my case was air, killed vyce in 2 hits as denam slash with his warrior crit buff dealing 500+ crit damage

Any idea why I can't recruit a Familiar with Canopus's 'Recruit Fey' ability?
**SPOILER WARNING**
Dynast-King's Mead helps wonders.
Hello. I went to the Forrest dungeon and recruited multiple fae in there using Canopus. Just get them low enough health and make sure u move Canopus right next to the fae unit to recruit. From wat I can see, if you look at a unit's information, you can inspect the characters name and see how they feel about you and that might be wat makes them likely or less likely to be recruited
Long story short. Go thru the phorampa Forrest and recruit your fae units there using canopus
Aside from wut luke said, you can't recruit roque class anything so if you fey (or any race) has them..tough times.
For me, breach was an absolute must. Too op....

True, but there's a LOT of new players who don't know the old ways. Plus terror knight got a lot of buffs so I wanted to see how it plays now.
denam vs vyce is so easy you get two hand blade magic leaf turn one run away turn two fear impact plus heal denam counters vyce breach then he's free
I just unlocked Terror Knight, should I switch Denam and go into training mode until Denam gets good with 2H swords? He is level 1 with 2H swords.
If you want to use him as a terror knight, yeah! You can build him however you want of course, I just personally found this to be a fun, strong build.
