Thread: Skill scrolls - what should I save up for.

Hybrid View

  1. #1

    Skill scrolls - what should I save up for.

    I have 12 of these scroll fragments, and I was watching the CW championships and noticed them using savagery a lot now instead of gutshot. I'm wondering if savagery would make a good choice to save up for (since it is cheap, and apparently effective - I wont argue with the choices of those in the CW finals)

    A couple of questions, would savagery allow the main to crit in banish easier? And is it a good choice in PVP, since the CW champs were using it it cant be bad can it? And what about the alternatives (gutshot, dervish, sweeping slash)?

    Savagery is just about as useful as Driving Blow.

    Savagery will help your main crit more in banish.

    Tbh, there's not much difference between Savagery and Driving Blow.

    Gutshot is useful only if you have Scipio deliver an Ultimate Gutshot alongside it.

    But a well placed Gutshot will kill an enemy's Supporter heroes and weaken them greatly.

    Why is no one using Sweeping Slash? It seems to me it can complement other AoE skills pretty well.

    Same reason why no one uses Dawnbringer anymore, because there are better skills out there.

    Technically, there are opportunities where it only hits 1 hero in the enemy's formation, thus not proving to be that effective.

    Also, the fragments don't drop that easily. It is a long wait to get to 50.
    I am curious to see if they will add more options later on.

    the right question to ask is here if your main needs savagery in banish. at lower levels the main is usually the first sacrifice and at later levels the main goes out anywhere between round 1-10. it wont apply the skill until round 2 and its not the same skill as lance got, its a weaker version.
    so in the end i wouldnt waste too much effort on getting savagery, but would mind getting skill scroll either. on the other hand, i think the main reason for players not using sweeping slash anymore is because at the higher levels you dont have enough PVE content (no more HR, no more quest = 0 ) to justify the purchase. i have been told savagery seems to be the same power as driving blow but you have a slightly raised crit rate when skilled.
    that being said i'd like to point out that if you add a lv12 crit to your main and star it up, it crits a lot as well, not as much as lance or pomp but still significant.
    sometimes i wish they would have added a stunshot to the main instead of dervish, that would really raise the strategies.

    I would suggest to get Gut Shot as priority 1.

    Then Savagery as it does more damage than Driving blow even though it shows exactly the same damage (especially doing Banish).

    I have sweeping slash, but depends on the enemy formation you may only hit 1 hero because it only hits the same vertical line as the placement of your main.

    I have sweeping slash and used it last CW. Verdict - - not that great. Unless your hapless foe lines up JUST SO, and doesnt change form ever. Went back to gutshot.....

    In terms of banish, my main is still the "sacrifice" at over 300 mil, and even with Tynon wanting you main to have the "best" of everything, the main in this game is very week, and so far the skill scrolls are nothing I'd want. Look at Heroic Realm and Pursuer or mud giant or others, the "mains" there are significantly better than anything the mains have available, 1,000 strikes etc, and they do a lot more damage than anything so far that I've seen with ANY hero in the game, I've beaten the "current quest" working on Sirius gear as well as trying to beat Ezekial and yet have seen nothing that makes me think the "main hero" has anything nearly as good as the bosses we have to fight. Would be nice if there was an actual increase in the mains skill with level beyond just the added attributes.
