Best CRIT SinX build for Episode : 11.3, Nameless & Moscovia

[jizmo]

Hey guys!

I'm not sure if there was a previous post about this but I would really like some feedback as to which build (gear and stats) are best for a CRIT SinX in PVP/WOE. If it's ok, I would like to know what the end-game gears are versus the lower (easier to get) gears. I am not very knowledgeable with CRIT builds for any class so I don't really know many things to work towards. As far as I am aware, the Morrigane's Set is good but I would like to know your thoughts. I want to work towards high damage per second but with at least a little survivability (if possible).

The current rates I am playing on is 7/7/5 with a max lvl of 99/70. I have only just started and have a lvl 60 assassin with no gear. What would be good to work towards first? and what would be considered "end-game"?

Also, I don't have a preference whether it be crit by gears or natural crit (by high luk). Whichever is best for high dps + some survivability. High dps is more important to me though

Thief Ring isn't available if I remember correctly and crit builds are not very effective in PVP/WOE.
But if you still want it:

You should work on getting Kobold cards first, it's very useful and should be fairly easy to get if luck is by your side with the rates.

Then for the accessory, Ring, Brooch, or Clip. Rosary could work if you need the mdef.

Clip isn't that great but helps you early on since you couldn't wear slotted Rings/Brooches/Rosaries pre-90, you'll have to rebirth anyway so it might be a good idea to get Clip.

The server should have BG by next month, get the valor carnage katar (more crit damage).

Other weapons you would want to consider are carded Jurs, or Infiltrator.

note: Morrigane's set is good but limits your options.

Crit builds are pretty bad in WoE/PVP because killing with one attack is better than doing good damage over time. They are excellent PVM fun builds though because you can basically level in every area as you can ignore monster DEF and FLEE.

Some general hints for stats:
1. Raise STR as much as AGI (but AGI first). Those two stats also should be your highest ones (both base stats in the 90s at 99 with STR total reaching 120, at least with buffs).
2. Usually you would keep VIT very low since it's a PVM build, but if you really wanna do WoE/PVP you will need VIT. Every point in VIT ruins your damage a bit more, though.
3. You don't really need INT as you don't use skills, though usually you can reach the next SP Regen tick bonus with 1-3 points into INT, which might be helpful in rare situations.
4. Make it so your total DEX with all bonuses (job+equip) at 99 is 20. That's the last point where the stat points into DEX are still worth the damage increase. Get the base stat early since early you benefit the most from it.
5. Get enough Luk to get a bit above 100% (like 106%) base crit to overcome the crit shield. Don't make it too high or it's a waste.

For highest damage you need the +10% damage +7 crit racial cards. Not sure if Jur[3] or Speciality Jur[4] is better. The latter is more expensive though (because needs more cards). Only way to have a global non-racial weapon would be using Mobster Cards, but those are too rare to consider usually.

For WoE/PVP you can of course use PVP Katar and Infiltrator, those are probably better than demihuman crit cards.

As for accessoires, see Gene's post.

Some tips to add to the posts above
A good ASPD is 182-183.
Getting more than that is not exactly "unnecessary" but feels like you would be wasting too many points.
Take in mind the +7 food from BG.


@Gene
Carnage Katar? I thought this server didn't have BG equip.

[Gene]

I might be wrong there, I thought only Glorious gears won't be in. But I guess every BG gear isn't available.

[NarueMoon]

I mean, I don't know either, I'm just assuming. Maybe you are right.

They decided no bg gears.

There's nothing wrong with 99 agi or 130 str. They both have very similar dps.

Came up with this

95% of people won't even have more than 10 luk so 100 crit is fine. You don't need mobster cards when you can use a hydra card. A lot of variations come out pretty similar, that gear is just preferable for that build.

Oh well if you are going the 1 VIT route that's fine.
I just always assume everyone wants stun immunity at least some VIT

I like that build btw I'll probably steal it and try it on DoM
