  • Disclaimer - This is my opinion. Does not mean truth. Does not mean solid.
    This video was made for a select few. These few players that tried Mystic Knight, and did not like it (for whatever reason) This is my attempt to help those players understand the vocation and to try Mystic Knight, with these easy tips.
    This video is not for everyone. This video is for those who gave up on Mystic Knight, because they felt Mystic Knight was simply a Fighter that could Enchant.
    Mystic Knight should be treated as Shield for the Primary weapon and Sword/Mace/Staff for the Secondary weapon. This simple approach fixes many problems that players have with Mystic Knight.
    Another thing that happens is we get in the idea that Mystic Knight is a Fighter that can now Enchant our Weapons. This holds Mystic Knight's full potential back. We can easily fix this by carrying the Permanently Enchanted Weapons and switching, rather than applying the Element.

      @@agentsmith9858 Here's how to make MHW a more fun game, don't play the meta. The same could be said for any game, but MHW has too much variety when it comes to builds for someone to run out of ideas in a day. Not only does the 70+ armors influence your style, so do the 100+ weapons and the 60~ monsters that you can fight. There's no one approach to tackling a monster, but most people seem to think that that's the case. Sure, you can run Crit LS like every. Single. Hunter. Out there, but you could also do debuff daggers or mount based glaives. The possibilities are quite endless. It's weird hearing someone say MHW is a regular game when I've never actually played any game quite like it aside from Dragons Dogma

You can also go anywhere you want from the beginning meaning you quickly get in to an area where the enemies are too strong for you.

    Some more helpful knowledge, if you have a ring that takes the dark riposte up to the third level, I found that it is one of my most useful MK spells! What it does is it torpor's the enemy, A LOT! Also the holy riposte is also quite handy; the spell it casts moves out slowly and stays a while, so that means if you are right next to your magic cannon, the cannon will go berserk and start shooting uncountable amounts of blasts when your holy riposte spell touches it lol!

      For Perfect Block I have 2 tips.
      1 tap the block button when you want to perfect block, Hold the block button when you need to block.
      2 never purchase and have Prescience equipped while you're practicing perfect block.
      Prescience never allows to know the timing. And Fighter's Shield has different timing than the Magic Shield. Magic Shield is slightly earlier and a longer window.
      But practice. Start with Goblins. Then go to Saurians, then Wolves. Eventually you will be practicing on Exuquy (which can be perfect blocked)
      Also, just in case (you probably already know) you must purchase the core skills Deflect and Reflect in order to perfect block. And the Shield's stagger # needs to be on par to the enemy's attack. Weak shields cannot perfect block strong enemies.

    Oh GOD I LOVE this class!! It’s what I’ve wanted from so many games. I went up to my first drake I ever found in the game shortly after getting this class. I had leveled it up a bit and I just started becoming comfortable. I remember taking the fight to the beast and buffing with everything I had. it reared up at me like it was going to blow fire, so, utilizing a special block, (It’s been a while since I played so I can’t remember the name.) I held strong against the flames as they sprayed in a wide arc all over my shield. It was incredible. I easily withstood the might of the brutal attack and it was just awesome. I had no doubt this class was perfect for me from that exact moment!!!

    @ladonmccabe 7 месяцев назад +1

    I know you say that Mystic Knight is a counter class, and that is true. But what I found, and the reason I fell in love with the Mystic Knight, is that its also a combo class. So many of its spells pair well with eachother, and were definitely made with that in mind. Vortex Sigil into Ruinous Sigil, Ruinous Sigil into Great Cannon, Magical Reposte into Great Cannon, Great Cannon into Great Cannon lol, you get it.
    And the staff, while not a strong damage dealer like the sorcerer or the mage, is far from useless. It should be used as a tool more so than a weapon. It also gets a spell no other class gets: Sopor. Paired with a fully maxed out rusty staff, it becomes downright crippling, not only putting them to sleep, but poisoning and inflicting torpor. The synergy is unreal, as the torpor slows ALL of the sleep animations: going to sleep, staying asleep (i think), and waking up. I dont have to explain why that's insane. Heck, you can charge a stone jungle before the enemy can even attack. The Mystic Knight also benefits the most out of using the expanded skill rings, imo. There's a lot of times I run two of them for either running the 3 main elemental repostes, or the one for frost/fire one and one with 2 of sopor/vortex sigil/stone grove just for fun.
    Overall, Mystic Knight is a class that, if you are willing to put in the work, is very rewarding. Easily my favorite class.

  • @KubinWielki
    @KubinWielki 2 года назад +4

    I think one of the issues people might have with Mystic Knight is simply the paradigm shift it requires to play. Even its closest cousin - the Fighter - is a more "offensive" vocation by default. That is to say - MK is *incomparably* more defensive/reactive in playstyle, as the class absolutely requires - as you said it yourself - to put the shield (and thus the defense) first.
    I think most people tend to miss this and try to play MK as "fighter but magic", trying to be as offensive as the fighter inherently is, thus dampening the MK's potential.

    • @Death2all546
      @Death2all546 9 месяцев назад

      What bothers me, trying to learn mystic knight, is that there seems to be no way of attracting enemy aggro.
      Counters/defense is meaningless if enemies aren’t all focused on you. And the only solution I can find tends to be “get rid of all your pawns and solo everything”.

    Good explanations here. You clearly have done your research and testing and it clearly shows. Whenever I play Mystic Knight I rely on Great Cannon too much, and so I end up equipping the elemental trances on myself which impedes the potential of the class.

    people don't realize how much of a nuke he can be, between cannon, demonswrath, sigil, and elemental ripostes, he's almost untouchable and can simultaneously build up to nearly blast arrow level nukes should he want to. Totally underrated class, and a real tactician's choice.

      I think the point I realized people were playing mk wrong was when I brought a lv. 27 mystic knight to fight grigori, with average gear and a few demon's periapts, I used demonswrath on the first knockdown and oneshot him about 3x over. I went back and did the same without the periapts, and it was easily 85% of his hp, in one SINGLE attack.

      I remember just bursting out laughing because I was so fucking shocked that people had been sleeping on demonswrath all that time, I tried it out on your recommendation (your poorly explained skills explained video) because grigori was weak to dark and I figured it'd better than dark riposte for burst damage on knockdowns. Two tusk tosses and one demonswrath later, dargon gone.

      DemonsWrath is soooo powerful. I love that skill. It is might awesome against Grigori and Dark Bushop. But often times the Charge runs out before I can use on Dark Bishop, or I end up killing him with Dark Cannon too soon.

    Watching old DD videos like this convinced me to get the game on the switch, so far I’m absolutely adoring it, and boy am I glad I went with mystic knight

    "The Mystic Knight sucks" said no one who has *ever* paired magick cannon and holy riposte.

      @@renanschafer7203 this is true, only in so far as you would have got 12 of another weapon if you had switched.
      The BBI 3s are the easiest ones to notice this with.
      Grab a BBI3 armor and purify it, if you get boots, reload and switch class, you will always get different boots. Maybe red boots, maybe yellow, maybe blue, but always boots. I'm pretty sure it is like this for every BBI item.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who plays like you do for MK, and I'm sure there are others who do the same. Proper play and understanding equals ridiculous devastation and destruction.

    the mystic knight was my first hybrid vocation that i had taken in my first playthrough, and through many of the new game+ playthroughs aswell bitterblack. it was fun and easy to learn what the vocation wanted and expected from me.
    i didn't think people had such a problem with it.

    As the MK tactics originator on the GameFAQs forums on the launch of the game. You're close and I approve this video. But you're wrong about holy, because Holy riposte + Great Cannon = Divine Gatling that instantly obliterates bosses.

    I beat the entire game because of Mystic Knight, so I can vouch for your theory!
