As promised guys! a very descriptive video regarding the "Spartan Hunter" build. I'll upload a few more highlight montage videos regarding the Spartan Hunter build, then move on to the next one! What other builds would you like to see?
this is the best video ive see on youtube for new world. I have been looking for a way to hit more of my leaping strikes, my perforates, and that pointer you gave and the looking down tip. This is the video i been searhcing for
This is exactly what I was looking for, couple days ago I thought to myself "I want to try a build I don't see a ton of people using and is not the meta" then realized that after playing it way more people were using this build than I thought. However, this build is so fun to play! Your breakdown of this build is exactly what a lot of people need to see! Great work!
I searched a lot for appealing playstyles and yours was a direct hit! I play this now and it feels very rewarding hitting the combos. As a returning player i will have to spam arena and duels to not miss 80 % of my shots. Feels pretty hard to execute properly. But i think it is a good build to learn the PvP mechanics properly, was lacking that with ranged builds a lot. Cheers!
Hey Loved the video and guide much appreciated just one question i play on fairly high ping is it possible to replace the perforate with vault kick or the javelin throw and still make it work pvp wise?
Yeah for sure, I would recommend replacing javelin for sweep as it's more consistent and easier to land. But with sweep you are still able to combo with you're SNS, or use perforate/skewer to combo after sweep.
hey i love the guide! but im a bit confused what stats i am supposed to run on my armours/weapons and jewelry! possible we can get a sc of all you gear to know what stats we should go for/ example?
I'm sure great swords as of now are running rampant haha, I would recommend running runeglass of punishing (+1% melee damage), but make sure to make them based on Opals/Onyxs/Malachites or Diamonds, instead of Moonstones/Emeralds, as you will be losing less overall resistances (0.5% instead of 1%).
@@GodotNW I just hit 60 for the first time and am maining your build still! Got some decent pieces and a legendary spear that rocks. It’s definitely tough but I can easily lock down and assassinate light builds and go toe-to-toe with medium/heavy builds due to 42% enfeebling skewer + fortify perf + sundering Jav. Thank you so much again!!
Thanks for this video. I have been really enjoying going back to this combo though I don't have the best gear yet lol. Any advice with the javelin throw and accuracy? I find that during a fight at times it is hard to get the accuracy. Is it better to just save it for a stun combo? Would you say that it is better to have the skills like javelin perk on the spear itself vs on gear? One last newbish question you mention using shift for tracking?
As for the javelin throw I would personally practice it on a dummy to figure out the "bullet drop" range between specific distances, my personal motto is to always try using it even if you fail multiple times at first, eventually you will get the hang of it! As for gear two perkers is enough for this build to be effective, I would say it's better to have "Sundering Javelin" on the gear because most of the perks recommended on the weapon provide overall additional damage, however if you find a spear with for example; attunement, keenly empowered/rogue and sundering javelin as the third perk then for sure I would recommend getting it, my point being is don't sacrifice "Must Have" damage perks for the sundering javelin perk (on weapon). Essentially what I meant with the tracking is that the tracking on spear is so good, that sometimes you don't even have to shift to gap close with the enemy, because light attacks and perforate has in-built tracking within it. Hope that solved a lot of your questions!
Amazing guide! thank you for that :) Are you still using this build? Would you change anything now since I've been noticing some new stuff going on in the current meta like the new gems. There's lots of people running perforate protection so it seems dex users are countering it with those special damage types. Its been quite hard to survive in the open against muskets and bows
Heyyo, no I haven't been playing melee hunters as of late, the most recent build I've tested out has been with greatsword, although this build still works fine it requires more mechanical skill due to it's high skill ceiling, in compared to greatsword or hatchet builds, I would recommend having a couple of elemental aversions and a thrust protect amulet as stated in the guide to deal with those pesky muskets and bows!
haha obrigado! Com calma e tempo vais melhorar, so e' preciso de consistencia e uma mentalidade persistent! Eu sou Australiano mas estou a viver agora em Portugal por causa da minha familia que sao todos portugueses
i've been using rapier and bow, I wanted to try this out, I am level 51, even without having a lot of points into the weapons and being able to build it properly, it's really fun and powerful. I do miss my bow, but I feel this is worth the sacrifice.
Yessir! Although this video was prior to the runeglass patch, I would recommend punishing runeglass on gear, and elemental opals on the weapon, such as runeglass of electrifying/ignited opal
Good morning friend, How are you? I'm Brazilian, I don't speak English very well, I'm using a translator so I'm sorry if there are any linguistic errors. I came first to praise you, you are a very skillful and intelligent player, you thought a lot outside the box, I would like to ask for some help. I'm new to the game and I just reached 600 gear, I really like the spear, but I miss mobility, I don't like the rapier, I think it's ugly, I wanted to make the spear + great ax happen, I really liked your build, it works for 3x3 ? and 1x1? and the main question, can you chase skilled archers? in the 3x3 arena I have difficulty against ranged classes like mages and archers, reinforcement, could you try to make a spear + greataxe video? Of all the videos I've seen, you seem to be the only one capable of making this work. Great video, I saw it with translation and I loved it. I'll try to make the same build you created in this video, but I still miss the spear (I love martial artists, and the closest thing in this game is the spear).
I'm good thank you! Although Spear + Greataxe isn't the most optimal combination but you could definitely make it work with 200 str, 150 dex and 150 con, although it would be an unorthodox build utilizing the greataxe mostly for the utility/catch potential (charge, reap, grav/whirlwind). It will work in small scale fighting and also as a build to hunt down healers or ranged dps such as bows on OPR games. Right now I have two videos underway, a 1v1 Barri Tournament POV and a 1000+ Arena Wins video highlight so I wouldn't be able to produce a video regarding it anytime soon, however if you would like me to play it live on stream you could always request the build and I'll play it and talk about it in real time, my stream is www.twitch.tv/Godot , I usually play arenas from 1pm-5pm CET and wars from 7-10pm CET. One last thing, eu falo portugues por tanto se voce quiser comentar em portugues esteja a vontade haha
@@GodotNW CARAAAAAAAAACA TA BRINCANDO? FALA PORTUGUES? É BRASILEIRO ? ou só fala nossa lingua? fiquei muito feliz hahahaha. vou te seguir na live então e pedir build
Yes! spear is possibly one of the best PVE weapons in the game, high rend, fortification, CC's and low CD's, the only downside of running this in PVE is that it's a bit too squishy (because you're light with shield), in dungeons you will need a proper tank but if you're playing alone you could always run a bit more con, an example would be 100 str, 200 dex, 200 con, or 50 str, 250 dex, 200 con
I will also try this build to reconsider the usefulness of light armor in the current state of the game. I have tried every way to play bow/spear in the arena but the speed with which I get shredded the moment I am "caught up" is depressing. In 2-3 seconds i'm dead, with no chance of escape. this build is more aggressive but more importantly it has drastically more mobility thanks to skewer and leaping strike. i'll try to buy myself a decent set with the perks you recommend and see whether or not it's time to switch to medium...or heavy xD

Heavy armor sns pvp build?
@@KR4ZYKI77ERTV I could create a heavy armor build, but It would mostly be for arena or duels, as it won't be optimal for "hunting" purposes

Amazing to hear! I must say that out of all the hunter builds I've played so far this is by far the most satisfying one!
Muchas gracias! Excelente video, saludos desde Argentina 🫡
Gracias amigo!
Awesome build. With a build like this are you prioritizing STR on each piece? DEX or CON?
Mostly dex or con, safe to have what you're running most of (attribute wise), dex gear is also generally cheaper haha
any possibility of making an updated guide to this ? You have one of the best ways of explaining the builds in your videos which others dont have.
Hell yeah, we're going to be launching an updated SNS Spear build in about 3 weeks time! Next up will be Spear GS

You can run anything as long as you don't go above 150 con/100 str/250dex - Mix between Str/Dex/Con
Great video
Would you have an recommendations for runeglass gems on this build? :) seems to be a lot of great swords/GA/WH on my server 😅

@@GodotNW entendi, por isso fala portugues kkk
Yessss ma dude
what does attunement mean ?
It is a weapon perk that provides 18%~ bonus damage to your attacks.

Now only if we had a spartan-esque skin + weapons kins that would be sick..
That would be the dream!

Yes I'm using light armour, this build is still very effective in the new patch
Should I go back to New World?
It's a great time to get back into it, especially considering the new patch is around the corner!
