Leap build

[Turgeon]

I e just start trying this build yesterday and thats rlly a crazy build thnk to you guyz. Alrdy 133 done in less than 6 min. With such poor gear using 4wl2fury. With sw BOM that rocki always found shockwave so bad but in this build itz ez to learn how this spelle work very nice guyz thnk you very much

Naktl Thanks man! Okay, so tried casting leap, ITZ, SW and did get better results. Swapped cleave and RS but I seem to be able to do better with RS as secondary attack for whatever reason. As far as cooldowns, I have CR, CD, Vit, and AR on all gear. I know others use Pow instead and get by with minimal Vit but I simply cannot stay alive without lots of Vit. I think I've always been a pretty sloppy player lol

I am a new player and you are well beyond me for TL level. Here is what I would say about that fight, given how ignorant I am.

You spent too long with the Elites in a small group. I would have carried them with Leap and WW to other mobs. You also seemed to stop casting Leap regularly before SW once you got dug in with those Elites. The DoT from Leap is one of the primary sources of SW dmg, so you need to keep it up all the time? You cooldowns are amazing though. Just out of curiosity, why do you have Rend as your secondary attack? I think because Rend is a DoT that is stacks, so it’s advantageous to have it continuous. Cleave is duration I think, instead of a stack, so you can throw it intermittently and get the debuff. Is that right?

Those are the observations of a newb for whatever they are worth.

Spam SW and use Rending Slash for bleeds. With that ww proc damage you really should be getting a lot more SW damage because you're obviously pulling a lot of mobs. Find your SW rhythm, don't draw too fast because then it wont cast, at least for me on iPad..
Edit: ITZ only works when a foe is targeted.

Hmmm... so would you critique this attempt? I don't know what it is...I almost fell asleep during this fight!

Cool, I'll try that too.
The last 2 AnBs I ran an SCR with the epic boxes and drops. 2nd run i baught 3 SCR pieces. Actually it would probably be better to farm XP with ELR (faster for me, though that might be due to more practice) and then decide what to push with when you already have the drops. At least that is my plan for next AnB

[Naktl]

Argon thanks. I dont have SCR unlocked yet. I really want to make a Lightning based build using SCR, but won’t have enough Glory until after the next event I think. Did a fun BH Demolitionist build during ANB Gold, but didn’t get very far. I know for certain I have used the double tap Leap on Kara. I think the main thing is to tap someplace other than the boss? I should be able to go test it later today.

[Argon]

Naktl congrats on tl119, that's very good for the second overall and first warrior AnB. Mages are a lot of fun too, but they are tougher to reach high trials. Current meta is ELR with frostbeam, but I can also recommend SCR for mobiles.
Thanks for the double tap tipp. Not sure what the benefit is. I first thaught yeah, really nice for boss fights to reach the ground faster and run from special attacks. But in bossfights double tapping didn't work. Am I doing something wrong?

[Naktl]

Thanks. Don’t have ToS unlocked yet and the VoW was just the best drop so far. Will absolutely switch when I can.

[Loreg]

You might want to use ToS instead of VoWs as the former will give you critical damage, a lot lot of critical damage.

[Arawn]

Trial 119 is not to shabby at all for a second ANB. Especially if you're rotating classes in the events. You're obviously a much better player than me lol! BH was a lot more difficult for me to play than warrior. I doubt I'd make it to 120 playing BH...

[Arawn]

Okay, will give it a go

[Arawn]

Naktl Oh that's a cool thing to know. Thanks!

[Naktl]

I have TL 119 open, but not enough time left to kill Garm. It’s ok though. This is my second ANB and only started playing about the time of that War Supplies Event before the most recent Gold ANB. My goal was to get my first two 77’s CT. I managed to get a 77 Sanguinarius and a 77 Belt of Templar this event. I applied the CT and I think if I want to keep them I just leave them bound rather than salvaging them? Haven’t used the Eboxes or Jboxes, etc. from the event because I am not exactly sure how to best use them. Most of my gear was still low 70’s, didn’t optimize jewelry, etc. its not the worst, but the learning curve is a bit steep. So, sub par performance obviously with a lot to learn.

I ran a Demolistionist BH during Gold, which is not the meta, but great fun because of all the sticky bombs. A Leap Warrior during this event. Also a lot of fun just because pulling during TLs is really dynamic. Hope to run a Mage in the next event.

[Naktl]

Alternatively, if you are on mobile you can throw Leap and double tap a location on the ground while in the air. It cancels the player character animation, but not the Storm of Swords. Of course this means you can cast something else, or even just more basic attacks during the time you would have been in the air. So you can use the hang time to cast ITZ if up, or you can cancel the hang time and keep pressing the attack.
