Erkawest Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Would be interesting to know if anybody bothered with the second wheel. I myself only used these 4 warrior skills the entire game, didn't need the test Triangle: Poison sword Square: Flame sword Circle: Second wind (heal) X: Spartan kick I barely used ranged active skills as they didn't help much imo. Only the bow special was good AoE damage during battleground fights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with the poison. Well that probably explains why it took me 96 hours to plat the game lol. Had to level up more to get through a few missions.

Took me 68h, my swords were either on poison or fire every fight and used the other after cooldowns etc, until lvl 3 when I could use permanent flame boosts on the sword. The flames melted through the enemies. Best was using flame/poison boost and then doing the special attack, the damage was crazy this way 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can imagine that it made taking down Medusa, the Minotaur & co pretty easy then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatar_Of_Battle Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 - Battle Cry of Ares - Shield Breaker - Second Wind - Rush Assassination I know doesn't technucally count for the topic but we loved the ability for closing the distance as well as being able to get up or down a wall smoothly while killing. It was different here and there but that was the final set and we didn't utilize the second weapon wheel because more times than not it got in the way. For those wondering why we didn't have poison/fire on it's because we had a set of legendary daggers with an auto poison ability. We set ourselves on fire more than our enemies so we stopped using it, and engraved a weapon here and there with auto poison. (I don't remember the name but it turned weapon damage into poison damage.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, mine were the Bull Rush, Second Wind, Shield Breaker... and the 4th can change every so often. Can't remember which I have on, but it's one I wouldn't really use compared to the other three. Bull Rush is good for crowd control and Shield Breaker, very useful for shielded enemies... man I hate those sort of enemies x.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's say I preferred the challenge... Lol. Well Spartan kick on captains standing close to edges was great. I remember an epic moment when I stood on top of a building, lured enemies to climb up to the roof then just kicked them down to the death. Was an easy way to clear outposts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a fort at the edge of a cliff I was in (too bad I died not long after trying to kill the leader in the fort ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dethfuse Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 My main wheel was. X: Hero Strike Square: Shield Breaker Circle: Ring of Chaos Triangle: Second Wind My second wheel only has Spartan Kick on X. I also engraved my dual daggers to have poison damage and engraved my two handed hammer to have fire damage. My bow also shoots fire arrows but I engraved it with the ability that lowers overpower attacks to 2 adrenaline. In combat I generally just use the daggers and focus on dodging. I use Hero Strike whenever it's up and I'll use Shield Breaker on any heavy shields. If my Adrenaline is full or I'm fighting an enemy with fire I'll use my overpower attack with my dagger. If I'm getting surrounded by basic enemies I'll use Ring of Chaos to clear them out. I'll also use it to stun a high health mercenary if they are doing a heavy attack. If I'm getting surrounded by tougher enemies I'll use overpower with my hammer since it can hit four enemies per overpower use. This is my late game build. Took me a while to come up with this setup but I'm really enjoying it at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirelli913 Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Just realized you can actually double up abilities. On one wheel, I have: Rush Assassination Flaming Attacks Sparta Kick Second Wind On the other wheel, I have: Hero Strike Flaming Attacks Shield Breaker Second Wind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have been good knowing when you wanted to just switch out one or two skills and keep the rest, like exchange Spartan Kick for Shield Breaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
