Thanks a lot for the tutorial. I don't PvP at all so there were definitely some things that I didn't take advantage of, most notably Five Point Strike for the knock up as well as Dual Strikes causing daze for Take Flight. I did beat Junghado twice but I was unable to do it consistently, I'll definitely try this build out for the next time I fight him. By the way, I noticed that you didn't use Maelstrom at all. When I fought Junghado, I used it to avoid his multi-strike attack when Guardian Tempest was on cooldown or I used it to avoid his stun attack that he tends to do after using his counter move. I'm still not too clear on how to avoid his knock up attack after his multi-strikes so I'll definitely try giving Q and E a try the next time I get hit with it.
+Than211 Great ! :) Glad that video helps... I forgot to change to Maelstrom on the last fight... U r right.. Maelstrom is needed to counter his multi strike after the Red AOe... I actually skilled my "Tab" to counter on last fight.. and I manage to counter him a few times thus I survive it.. it really depends on individual but Maelstrom is a better way to go for the counter and include Q & E will be perfect. :p Hope u try it out and get better result. :)
+oppai dragon I cant remember the name of the sword... its a sword use for sacrifice during evolving and it has no stats or whatsoever... it drops from a level 50 dungeon.. :)
Thanks! This actually helped bossing so much. When should I use the f attack during my draw stance? I noticed you never (or barely ever used it and just kept on spamming LMB)
+Trendons Oh.. I do use it but sometimes with animation cancel... most of the time I just use Flicker cos its so much faster and sometimes I try to combo both to do animation cancel :P
+Trendons You alternate LMB and F buttons; you can just spam those two buttons like crazy because F doesn't do anything while you're in Lightning Draw unless Lightning Flash procs. Essentially, what this will do is it will use Lightning Flash whenever it becomes available and as soon as you use it, you cancel the animation with Flicker. It's not really something that you really actively time, you just mash the two buttons and hope for the best LOL
dude nice video first of all .. well i main BD on eu server 200-250 ping(without WTFast) and i can't go trough 5th floor which requires a certain time... dunno whether i give up or max out my gear..
Ashley I was wondering , can blade dancers solo content like BrightStone Ruins and Such,im lvl45 with true infernal 10 and i feel their quick burst but it just dies out so fast , and also which do u play more or well played more BD or Summ
+Daniel Vega I use to play lots of Summoner.. I am sure Summoner can solo Brightstone Ruins with its stealth mode on long distance attack and have the cat to tank. U really need good Soul Shield with tons of HP and a very good weapon to solo them... Skill Z for 5 times immune for protection... keep pressing Q or E when the boss jumps at u... U need to take out the long distance attack globe super fast... u might be able to solo but still tough. :)
Vile mew If for Solo play... Summoner is definitely better... I ever saw a guy on the China server solo clear a lvl 50 Legendary dungeon himself. :) He brought me along to clear my Hong Men quest and all i need to do is stand there and watch.
This is really good. I like the build. I am coming back to it. The only thing is, you don't offer up any suggestions as to if you have less skill points to invest, what it is that you would sacrifice first. I am just pve and am leaving out five point strike and phantom grip, I dont find them very effective. I am just HM1 right now, though soon will be hm2
+Butcher_ Bird_44 u need 5 point strike and phantom grip on lvl 7. To CC the boss. For the points u r lack off... u can try to take out Sunder and Rolling Typhoon as this is a lighting draw build... :)
I am not really up for Mushins right now, though I may consider it. I just ran Blackram Supply chain for the first time, and I basically alternate between the lightning draw, and then when it is out, I run the rolling typhoon. I don't really like how vulnerable you are during knockups, but they still happen a bit seems like, so I do that rising blade after the 1 skill and it seems to do well. Though, I see potential there, and I will try to develop it. I almost have HM2 so I will get another 6 and those two will get the skills as I could really use those, and we will see from there. I haven't been PVP at all BTW, I am kind of mad they want 10$ for an alternate build page , and I don't like how hard I have to work to play pvp lol It is too intense for too long. Maybe some day. Thanks for all the help Ash.
Butcher_ Bird_44 oh oh... thanks for the updates... yup the alternate page build for $10 is too much... I use to hate changing my skills... Played for a year with the same skill tree for pvp and pve.. haha... and I didnt optimise the class till recently.. For pvp, a few skill change really can go a long way... but having the hong men extra points also helps alot... u can add all of them without changing. lol Cheers and hope u find the best build for your play style ! :)
Thanks man. I don't mind changing skills, what gets me is that I can't always remember where to put them. So essentially, I kind of start from scratch each time or be in pve and things aren't working right in battle and I may or may not have the awareness to know the difference. But, I am slowly getting there, and it is clear at times when things aren't quite right and I have to adjust them. But it looks like I am going to have to pvp to farm soulstones. Too high a demand for weapons upgrade and crafting. I get my but whooped a lot on open world pvp around Misty Woods right now. If you have any tips on what to do and what to watch out for around there, that would be great. Seems like the flicker is kind of useless in pvp due to targets moving a lot.
Butcher_ Bird_44 hmmm... for the open world pvp, it really depends on the gear and soul shield... having good gears will definitely give u more chances to survive... Also look out for channels that is dominate by your faction and u can do your quest peacefully on it without getting whop by opponents... some times i do my quest on wee hours on NA cos I am in asia... Flicker doesnt do much on PVP but Lighting draw is a must have for burst damage... esp skill it confirm crit when use on knockdown enemy... I farm soul stones to sell without upgrading my weapon, cos its super ex now.. .its a good time to earn gold... and when there are more ways to earn soul stones like now in china... participating in 1 vs 1 .. .2 of the quest gives 30 over soul stones altogether... therefore if this is intro to NA/EU... soul stones price will drop... U might only use 1/4 of the gold to upgrade the weapon by then. :) Hope this helps :p
Ashley I pass mushin 1-7 thanks to ur guides but now I'm stuck at 8-15.... Please make a bd guide from 8-15 for this not so good bd xD thank you so much for this vid!!!
+Sebastian Olivera For starter, u wont have enough points to build the full lighting strike in the beginning... its best to use Sunder. When u Q or E, Sunder will be at full speed and u can RMB them till u do your typhoon strike.... Skill your V to dual strike... after setting this up u should be lvl 30.. The rest of the points can go anything u like after this skills are done. :p Lighting build should be about lvl 45 and above... :)
+xiao feng currently at lvl 45 with the hong men skills points u get but not the hong men skills u can unlock... its been awhile since I unlock Hong Men skills... here is a guide for the chinese server which will be the same as NA when they update their content www.freedomplays.com/blade-soul-unlocking-hongmun-skill/
AWuerth For room 3... u have to hit them 1 group by group at a time. :) Remember to change your Flicker attack to mass mobs or u can try to use Sunder follow by typhoon slash. U should clear the room easy. :) Hope u can do it soon.
+XGS TwoFace I cant remember the name of the sword... its a sword use for sacrifice during evolving and it has no stats or whatsoever... it drops from a level 50 dungeon.. :) Yes on China server playing Soul Fighter now ! :p
+Sparks TheReaper (HIMURA X MACHINA) I use ping booster like WTfast and Xun lei .. they are stated in the program :) But somehow u can check ping from Task Manager... I am not sure thou.. u can try forum if anyone knows. :)
Mokie Hi hi .. thanks for watching.. .I did made one for LBD vs Destroyer... and also others compilation. Maybe u can check out my channel? :) Will try to do more next time :p

+xIReAcTiionSx Awesome !!! :) So glad that the video helps. :p

thanks lots for the video. gonna try this once I hit lvl 45
+lil Nan ELF Cool ! Glad that u like it :)

YAY!! A new video from u! :D I only come to F4 ._.
thanks for the usefull video!!
what sword is that you are using?
+oppai dragon I cant remember the name of the sword... its a sword use for sacrifice during evolving and it has no stats or whatsoever... it drops from a level 50 dungeon.. :)
wah what a usefull video for me :D thx ashley
+xiao feng Great !!! So glad that the vids can help :p
I will try it later, thanks
+BabyLoveMe Great ! Hope that this video can help :)
I love the video and thanks for listening to the fans xD. But if you can can you do an updated assassin skill tree?
+CloudV3 I try oki... cos now playing a new class of Soul fighter on China server... will find time to do a new guide for Assassin. :)
Thanks! This actually helped bossing so much. When should I use the f attack during my draw stance? I noticed you never (or barely ever used it and just kept on spamming LMB)
+Trendons Oh.. I do use it but sometimes with animation cancel... most of the time I just use Flicker cos its so much faster and sometimes I try to combo both to do animation cancel :P
So to animation cancel, you press f and LMB at the same time?
+Trendons You alternate LMB and F buttons; you can just spam those two buttons like crazy because F doesn't do anything while you're in Lightning Draw unless Lightning Flash procs. Essentially, what this will do is it will use Lightning Flash whenever it becomes available and as soon as you use it, you cancel the animation with Flicker. It's not really something that you really actively time, you just mash the two buttons and hope for the best LOL
+Trendons Yes... almost the same time and also what Than211 says. :p
Very nice video :)
Can you do a summoner guide video for mushin tower, like this please?
+Sakura Sure... will do it up soon ! :)
Very nice!
+Mahmmoud Δ Thanks ! :)
+Ashley Ng Is that your final Blade Dancer skill tree?? I like the Light draw thingy style
Mahmmoud Δ Yes. that is for the PVE with Hong Men 5 level... so its final :)
I see, but is Blade Dancer is the only class you have? I was wondering about Blade master, It as similar as Blade Dancer
Mahmmoud Δ Oh.. I never play Blade master for a long time. :) I do have all the 9 classes. :)
dude nice video first of all ..
well i main BD on eu server 200-250 ping(without WTFast) and i can't go trough 5th floor which requires a certain time... dunno whether i give up or max out my gear..
+Kiohara Rei Hi hi.. you should max out your gear.. with increase attack damage u can take down the boss faster. :) Hope u can clear it soon. :)
Ashley I was wondering , can blade dancers solo content like BrightStone Ruins and Such,im lvl45 with true infernal 10 and i feel their quick burst but it just dies out so fast , and also which do u play more or well played more BD or Summ

U need to take out the long distance attack globe super fast... u might be able to solo but still tough. :)
+Ashley Ng Do you prefer Summoner over BD in solo play?
Vile mew If for Solo play... Summoner is definitely better... I ever saw a guy on the China server solo clear a lvl 50 Legendary dungeon himself. :) He brought me along to clear my Hong Men quest and all i need to do is stand there and watch.
This is really good.

+Mark August Diaz How many points u lack off? Do let me know and I will share with u which skills to take it out from :)
+Ashley Ng Its lacking 5 points. I can't add anymore on Lightning Draw & Storm Cleave. :(
+Mark August Diaz U can take out rolling Typhoon and also Sunder if u are using this Lighting Draw build. :) That should be 5 points. :)
+Ashley Ng What is more important Lightning Draw or Sunder/RT build? Sunder/RT Build is good for 3F, am I right?
Mark August Diaz oh.. it really depends on your play style... for this video i am using 99% on Lighting Draw then Sunder... :)
That top right thing... Action Replay?
+fumaxsu Yes.. Action recording software. :)
