There are so many good skills so can you guys please tell me which is best as the main DPS in PvP/WoE? /wah OverBrand, Vanishing Point, Ray of Genesis or maybe PPA + Exceed Break x)
And do I need Int and Luk as a RG? /hmm

Mathspy

I am a RoyalGuard, and I wanna be WoE too. /ho

I won't answer your skills question cuz I am not sure yet, so I prefer not to ruin your build and get blamed. /??

But I can answer the luck/int question. Luck is not needed, but int is pretty/really needed, depends on which skills you will choose, some skills will need just 30-50 int, others will need 70+ and so on /ok

Sorry if I wasn't much help /sob

Thanks mate, you are a big help to me  /no1
Also, I'm wondering which spear to use? A battle hook or a Imperial Spear? I don't have access to BG/better stuffs now :<

Before I give you my advice, I'd like to note that it's based on rA one of recent revisions. If your server isn't using it, it might be useless...

Essentially, there are two ways to roll offensive RG, Inspiration or not. Inspiration can add some damage, but with its long reuse delay, relatively short duration, crazy SP consumption and amount of skill points needed, it isn't that good...unless you  cooperate with other RGs in Banding to boost damage of the Genesis Ray. If you decide to go this way, you'll need both STR and INT at 100ish base stat.

Without Inspiration, your main offensive skill will be Overbrand. It can be deadly if you have build focused on it. Drop the INT totally, and rely on SP consumables. High STR and a bit of LUK for max possible ATK, VIT for survivability and DEX for HIT/cast time. Support skills are up to you...I do recommend lvl 1 Shield spell for ATK boost (it is one of possible effects), Trample at least lvl 1, Earth Drive, Reflect Damage, Pinpoint attack, Force of Vanguard for HP boost. Branding, Prestige and Piety are situational, if you have RGs to cooperate with you'll use Branding, Prestige and Piety kinda depend on your servers' amount of MvP/miniboss cards, if GTB is common you will probably use neither.

And weapon. At this moment the best weapon you can use save for BG weapons is high refine Pike [4] with old good pre-renewal style carding. Later on, when rA gets real Renewal ATK, it will be probably Battle Hook. Imperial Spear might work better for Genesis, not sure.

I believe what Sarin Link said is really, but for me, I will get Inspiration either ways... it's such a nice buff, even with all it's bad points. Note that, I am not AN ATTACKER in WoE; for me Royal GUARDS are born to guard. So my build is passed more on defending skills, if you want to know details about it, PM me. But I believe you should follow Sarin's advice, since I am a noob RG~ /heh

Thanks guys  /no1
I'm now got stuck between Ebone Armor and Bone Plate. Which is better at +7? And which card should I use? (Porcellio or Peco Peco or something else?)

Sarin

Well. My personal favorite is +3 STR enchanted Diablo Armor, but I suppose you don't have that one available. Bone Plate is probably best offensively, but RG always has to find his balance between offense and defense. Best defense is +3 VIT or +3 STR enchanted Life Link, Ebony has jigh defense, but it's impossible to enchant and has not other bonus so it's not that good I think.

Even with 50-60 int, genesis ray still owns PVP add shield spell lvl 1 for extra dmg, with cross or rosa shield, sets can be valk set which is my favorite Or life link, use imp spear and imp guard for higher genesis ray dmg, dont waste time teaming with other RG's  use inspi instead, it helps you also resist strip even when your at FCP, when u get hit by masquradw, inspi is that important too, nd kRO said that Banding gives overawe movement to the player walking around the RG so go support build with banding also add genesis ray if you want, inspi+OB helpls in some lanes like RK lane and other lanes like SC then try other combinations with inspi like Vanishing Point, add MR to ignore def when you go MvP and PVM with MVPs and mobs with stone skinn and agi up mobs and players unless you have inca samurai and thanatos, u can remove MR
