It only matters in the Anton Raid. Otherwise it's just a matter of rate of levelling or capability of killing bosses. Now that you basically like MvC-style assists with your alts, it's a lot easier to level.

You mean linking characters? Forgot that was a thing

 

 

Okay, who is the best pvp/pve per character?

 

Frankly, not even the best classes per character are relegated to one. They even got some adjustments in this new build, so anything I say about what's best for PVE has little weight. But as far as how they play in general is concerned, I can, at least, say what NOT to pick for PVE.

 

Soul Bender - Despite his style being glyph summoning, you only get 2 out of 4 (and a half if you count Tombstone) that do damage. On top of that, there's a flash-step cut, the Install skill Khala (which I honestly feel should have had a longer duration), and an Awakening skill that does a shit ton of damage, but only at the expense of all the ghosts you have on the field. And despite a buff to the overall class that gave him more melee attacks, it makes him more of a PVP class when you have a focused playstyle, All of the really good Bender skills you get at the later half of the game, especially once you get to Second Awakening. He's a tough class to deal with at the beginning and can be very situational. 

 

M. Grappler - Not hard to explain why he sucks compared to his other classes and including F.Grappler. His skills don't have the kind of abusive utility that his counterpart possess, and I've played the motherfucker up to maybe lvl63.

 

Battle Mage - Way too much of a PVPer when you look at her excellent single DPS combos.

 

Glacial Master - Most of his AOE skills are cube skills. I found him rather boring and underdeveloped compared to Elemental Bomber (but then I notice he can chain his skills now, so I wonder what they gave to GM).

 

Crusader - He's a support class, so unless that's your thing, you don't necessarily have to pick him. I bet you're wondering "Monk's a single DPS PVP class, so why not him?" Look up K.O.A.G.P. on Youtube. ^^

 

Summor - No. Just no. This is DFO, not Clash of Clans.

Hard to say. Anton Raid was removed but for Slayer, Soul Bender/Asura for PvP, Blademaster for PvE.

Asura can be just as much PVE as the rest, he's just high maintenance. And then his 2nd Awakening happened.

Yup. I linked my F.Striker with Lightning Dance as an assist. Combo stuff and have her reset with Lightning Dance and if things aren't dead, I can aerial chain a second time then robot oki with my Mechanic. Fight games combos yo ;O it's gonna be silly if I get a Launcher assist for my F. Striker.

 

And whether you like it or not, Summoner is pretty top tier for PvE and PvP.

Shot you guys a guild request on my fighter and slayer, TomoeGozen and SolNiceguy respectively. Never got to play during initial release so decided to give it a spin now it's pretty damn fun.

Anyway, you're welcome to add my male nen "WhiteGlint" to the guild as well.

 

Follow the instructions on the front page so I can add you even if you're offline. Also welcome to the community.

 

Will be implementing a new rule that will increase the limit in the guild to 1 main + 2 alts. Due to the way fatigue works and to prevent the guild from being flooded with alts, I feel this is a fair compromise that will allow people to rotate characters while still being able to play with others in the guild.

Crusader, bad in PvE? The hell am I reading :psyduck: Or did you just list the classes that are a bit harder to play solo? Because both sader and bender are great classes to have in parties, especially since their damage isn't half-bad, either.

 

Thanks to the FP system, I can juggle three characters without feeling too bad about my alt-itis. I'm going to keep rolling with my alpha f.brawler, resume playing the best class ever (f.grappler), and try something a bit more difficult to keep things interesting (BM). I'll try joining the guild with the BM today, the name's ShissouGinga.

PvE tier list was based on the Anton Raid instance which was recently removed from kDnF. Basically the idea was "this is Crusader. He is your god. All other classes on the list are based on how well they work with him and his buffs". So a lot of characters that were great in PvE solo were actually ass because of their inability to make use of sader buffs.

I didn't really say he's bad in PvE, cuz he does have some pretty good skills, but he's a support class who buffs himself and his party, so if that's not your style, you don't have to pick him. As I said, all I've listed are based on how the classes play rather than their damage output in PVE, solo or otherwise.

If I wanted to add an alt should I just post it here or leave it in the comment?

 

Just send a join request and your DLoop tag in the comment thing when you apply. Just a quick edit: It should go without saying, but all the same rules from these forums also applies in-game.

Yeah, if you have it, it's always active, so enjoy those bonus stats. They're supposed to compensate for the loss of Quest Points, and frankly, I won't miss those.

Dunno about you, but I kinda liked those quest skills, mainly because no other medium could allow me to have a handy amount of extra MP recovery, unless those dimension buffs get way better down the line (got two right now).

They do. The 4th one gives a huge MP/HP regen boost and 3% move speed.

I miss Mirkwood. Can we ever go back?

There's a Level 50-55 zone where basically all the old zones that got removed are trapped in ice in a nightmare world. They condensed all the old zones into a singular dungeon run and wrote it into the story.

I'm still currently trying to figure out who I want as my main.  Soooo many classes to try :<  (I'm currently trying to decide between monk and avenger for my priest)

 

Looking forward to Kunoichi and 3rd Female Slayer class.

Anyone know where to get a good rosary? I went Crusader on my Priest alt, but it gave me a cross when I want to run rosary.

 Auction House. They're pretty cheap.

 

Like I mentioned in-game, here it is. You've probably seen this as Neople posted it, but yeah, M.Brawler in PVP is exemplified greatly in these tourneys.

Another M.Brawler match: https://youtu.be/lmW-NSfDxGo?t=41m1s

M. Brawler oki is pretty goddamn OP. Net can just reset on tech or grab backsteps and then if you catch them, shotgun nails.

I probably missed that because of the guild chat being flooded by megaphone things.  Is there a way to filter those out?
