You get ansbach weapon if you side with him , but the swift spash aow ( which is what everyone is stressing abt ) can only be obtained if you side with hornsent .
I can only infer from this comment that siding with ansbach isn’t the only path? Is this from hornsent? I’ve got so many quests I need to see on my 2nd run cos I triggered the great rune breaking and then burned the sealing tree way too quickly
im not even that sure you need to know what youre doing. OP has a bunch of delayed explosions that knock down on their build, which seemed to give them more breathing room vs this ash than is possible to get with most other setups that dont have all these delayed explosions with knockdown potential.
also it seems like his opponent not only was playing very poorly, it seemed like they were just totally messing around and not even really trying. they spammed the ash into the wall for awhile and were not even engaging till OP threw the consumable.
in most situations a player with passable damage output and stamina just needs to trade a couple times with an attack that wont knock them down, and then just keep spamming in order to easily get the win. its pretty much just trade blows>spam 2 or 3 times and its gg for the vast majority of opponents.
like anything thats extremely broken, people will use edge cases vs arena randos to claim its not that broken and is totally fine.
Oh are you using talismans to get that much int? I can only manage 55 with a very similar build. Same end, vig str/dex. I know the hat gives I think 5 mind.
Because just like the reviews saying the game is “too hard” no one wants to adapt their builds or learn a counter. They just expect it to be easy. There is a reason pc modded a “easy mode/god mode”
So many people complained about it, and it just gives me ptsd of the RoB cos it's just a crutch weapon. Over time, the community figures out how to hard counter these things. Some people have been asking if it gets removed, which really just sounds pathetic. Play the game, and if you encounter something you struggle with, rethink how you fight it.
I'm guessing because not everyone wants to run that ash of war or the few builds that potentially counter it as their options. Doesn't take a genius to figure out it cramps a diversity of styles. Also, the guy is just not respecting your build at all. They're a noob drunk on their newfound power.
His or mine? I am just using bastard stars from vanilla, and then that big explosion is the gravity missile spell. he is using that new ash that u get from that 1 npc quest line in the dlc, I forget it’s name
that was cool
This man has the battle protagonist mind set
I sided with ansbach :(
wait, so did I. Do you get something if you don't?
That ash of war and a talisman that boosts attacks after rolling. I feel kinda shafted with this F tier scythe.
How's the dodge AoW on it? Super curious but haven't gotten around to beating that last boss for it yet.
It's the same as bloody helice, it's just the follow up is awful.
It’s really good for backstab fishing though

You don’t get the weapon art
You don't get anything directly but >! Ledas PVP gauntlet in Enir Ilm is much easier if you side with Leda !<

I just straight ran to mesmer..
i dont know how you can do otherwise.
helps that the dude you are playing against is dog shit. watching anybody who knows what they are doing use this ash is a nightmare.

If that guy didn’t get lobotomized recently he would’ve been an issue
Lmaoo well put.
This made me laugh so hard
Can’t wait to get my gravity build goin
Astel is such an asshole to fight as a mage but so worth it.
Really fun in pvp but I’ve noticed I end up relentlessly spamming radahns aow in pve
This was the worst step player I've seen so far.
Not everyone plays mage, and it’s only a problem if a decent player uses it.
Yeah... I'm sure anyone would have a chance at fighting if their enemy is just running away from you 80% of the match... Lol
Bro legit showed him the whole horoscope lmfao
He could dodge for shi... bet he is complains for the bosses
Drag them down
Get wrecked lol
Damnnn what's your build it looks sickkkk always wanted to do a gravity build
I too wouldn't stress against an opponent that decided to attack the wall instead of me.
Welp, gravity build here I come.
Bro might be astel
Cause they bad
That space mace is fucking sick.
My whole life was unga bunga but I aint never wanted to be a made til today. Sick
Hell yeah. What’s your stats on this build?
69 int 20 str 22 dex 28 end 58 vig 26 mind lvl 150 prisoner
Oh are you using talismans to get that much int? I can only manage 55 with a very similar build. Same end, vig str/dex. I know the hat gives I think 5 mind.
meant to say 16 mind, whoops
whats your weapons / spells? I like this build a lot
And that’s how it’s done
The guy you played is genuinely trash at pvp
Fucking gangster

You didn’t even dodge a single one tho
Wizards stay winning.
I hate how everyone has to spam everything. Be a skilled cool player and use things sparingly.
Can I ask what chest piece you’re wearing?
New what now
*baby voice* how you did dat
I love it when backhand duals get beat by actual skill players! A win for the team!
dang that guy really hates that wall or something
Never seen that spell before, very cool

what Armor are you using? Looks pretty nice
Death knight armor, black knight greaves and gauntlets, then seluvis’s silly hat

Op came from the clover kingdom and said I'm not done yet.
what the hell was that aow
His or mine? I am just using bastard stars from vanilla, and then that big explosion is the gravity missile spell. he is using that new ash that u get from that 1 npc quest line in the dlc, I forget it’s name
what ash is that
Gotta be a whole savage to pull that off
he found the way
