WK Best for 3 skills?

by **Losthero2** » Wed Jan 30, 2013 6:52 pm

So I have been looking at the different threads and I have a few thoughts, everyone is talking up GL and GM, but in my opinion WK looks to be able to best take advantage of multi-skills. He has more than a solid enough defense stat to use shield/dagger, which so far for me, is DESTROYING these myriad agi teams when combined with SoB and I haven't even placed Berserk yet.

I am all about the metagame and I feel that double stacking attack skills is wasteful. Shield or Cloak/Dagger seems to be the only good reactive defense skill thus far. I know GH and Blue Beard have enough defense to be viable with shield skills, but their atk is so much lower than WK he ends up in a seperate class.

With Dispel being pretty ineffective the only other reactive option for all WL's except WK seems to be Riposte. So... Anyone got any thoughts on a better reactive skill for the other WL's?

Also, is the Recall line a reactive skill like The Shield/Shroud line or will it consume a turn on use?

Revive consumes a turn, siphon works perfectly well for the other warlords (had it proc for 11k heal against the last GM I faced ><) and WK can't hold a candle to GM. Why play the meta-game when you can be the best buffer AND one-shot an entire team as agi OR wisdom? You're trying to be too fancy

Because I already chose WK a long time ago. I gotta roll with it.

GM is wiping me (At least until I get this OPE Yulia finished), but I have been dominating GL teams. WK with SoB/S&D Flanked by Girt & Ghis is ruthless.

My fiance plays GL however, so I am trying to help her figure out what to add beyond GoW/Rush.

It's looks to be between Syphon & Riposte now. She doesn't have solid T1 fams yet though, so syphon may end up not being too useful if her flanking fams get OHKO. Has anyone with GL got any feedback on using Riposte?

And after looking into Riposte a bit more, apparently Aegis is the only epic or above that has the skill.

Syphon it is!

Edit: It looks like I went way off point. Shield and dagger is the best reactionary skill. Syphon is cool, but you wont see a pvp team rocking a pendragon. WK is really the only WL who can effectively use S&D, Meaning that running Buff/Attack/Defense skill gets the best results with WK. Im not saying WK is better for wiping teams from the go, just that his stats are best fitted for running 3 different skill types.
