War Kahuna build discussion.

[brutalg]

Well I finally got MC and after looking at the skills for a bit I was wondering which build (skill build + dura/stones) would be best for Pvp,farming, dungeon soloing...

Since EW:Lightning got nerfed i started questioning the effectiveness of atk speed builds on whunas. EW:Lighting used to be the best skill for champ farming and dungeon soloing but now it gets hard like this.
So want to try something else...

As for skills I went for buffs at first coz 30 of every stat seemed pretty op and everyone wants us for the buffs. The improved recks seem nice too and it would be easier to get dp's with the buffs and stuff.

I was set on 1/1/3 for skill build and full atk/cast spd dura with Vit/Str stones.

BUT when I checked the other skills i started to like the 1st and 2nd tree more too.

the 2nd Tree doesn't look all that impressive besides some decent passives besides: stun skill (nice damage, low cd, stun), maxed gravity amp might come in handy sometimes and ENDLESS LUCK!
Endless Luck seems like an amazing skill. With new attack skills ( enchanted slash and leviathan's torrent) and already existing ones (blasting rock cut, spinning blow) AND chips that work as an attack skill (I have lvl 1 chip on skill bar just for this lol) it's pretty easy to keep this up. when stacked 5x it makes for a nice 1200patk/1200matk buff.

The first tree doesn't seem all that special either besides Lucid Dream and Enchanted slash.
Lucid Dream, Breath of Life and EW: Water make for nice skills to keep our mp up during dp/farming When using a lot of skills.

Was thinking if I should actually go patk build... and wondering how well that would work when soloing dungeon mobs or during pvp...

What do you guys think about this idea? Or what other builds do other Whunas use here?

EDIT:
Ok after looking a bit to the first tree more I don't think it's any useful at all.
Lucid Dream seems nice but 4kmp cost and if you get hit during recovery the effect cancels. Enchanted slash costs way too much mp to keep up (might be possible to keep mp up with 30%mp cost passive and ew water but not sure.)

The 2nd tree still looks pretty cool tho.
A nice stun, maxed gravity amp is allright, a crit rate passive that works well with ur +30buff, a nice patk and matk passive from ur pet, endless luck.

So well was thinking about 0/2/3. With a Patk/crit rate build OR atk spd build.

IMHO irrelevant of how you distribute your tp
Go full agi stones and either crit power or str
Full eager/voracious/devouring.
Make sure your atk speed gets to 349 with gust
If you are over 349 atk speed get some crit rate gear stoned crit rate/crit power to change into as much of that as you can and still be over 349

I don't know how easy it is to get 350 atk speed on a huna but W/E

Edit: ND luck rings are better than unrelenting luck rings

Hmm so w8 Agi stones are better than Vit stones for survivability?

Well not getting hit is better than taking 100/200 less damage
And agi also adds atk speed

Oh yeah.
Still wondering if it's safe to just completely ignore vit. A single attack of a dungeon mob would do a lot of damage and a few attacks in a row would kill u.

Just not familiar with a build like this so idk...

Soloing dungeons will be very difficult as without full buffs and high + armor you will get hit quite hard but you can also heal yourself so

For farming champs & vi mobs use a longbow

Currently i got 6 agi / 4 vit / 2 str stones in my build with crit power axe and armor the rest is atk speed.
Dont have high +3ed armor/weapon yet but hits seem to reach around +25k with +250 atk speed would be nice if i reached 350 with gust but for now im concentrating more on crit power since im t2.
Id rather switch the 2 str stones i got for crit power but mage classes get heavy fast so i think ill stick with str for now .
TP's are 2/0/3 atm and reseting TP's is getting expensive so ill probably keep this combination.

[powerbruster]

just use a 1h axe if your scared to get Hit Lightning Stun FTW Still?

[brutalg]

Ok i'm reaching T2 soon so I'm thinking about my build again.
I always put as much vit stones in my equips as possible but was wondering if i should still go atk spd or just go full Patk/critrate/critpower and make good use of endless luck?

[brettkeanefan]

Reroll as a Magus.

Seriously, War Kahuna is a stinking pile of gouda.

[kriescher]

WH does an incredible amount of dmg, but you need to run 3/2/0 or 2/3/0,
no place for Protectorsforce for a dd-wh

[brutalg]

Nah soloing with enchanted slash is nearly impossible as it drains way too much mp and lucid dream isn't very useful as it requires you to stop fighting for a bit coz it cancels if you get hit. Besides lvl 20 of spinning blow, rock blasting cut the tree doesn't have anything useful.

I also need some defense too wich comes from my buffs and reck of earth.

Wondering if i should stick with atk spd/ crit rate/crit pow or go to crit rate/crit pow/patk for t2.

Soloing HC is nearly impossible for me as i:
1) Kill too slow (even tho ppl say my damage is nice)
2) lack defense.
should i just increase atk spd for more stuns? or just kill even faster?
