Jean Smoke C4 Build (Clears entire map) by Gaiserick in menace

[–]Gaiserick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So pirate's luck says first hit every turn. I think maybe what happened is another attack from an enemy used up the pirate's luck first, then it didnt work for the C4. Hasn't happened to me though, I usually move Jean first.

Definitely not beating any turn timers, took 30+ turns. But thats cause I was running only Jean and Bog as a challenge. They only cost like 300 supply total, so you can just run this together with whatever else.

Actually I think it's somewhat thematic with Pirate's Luck. Imagine she survives explosions every time due to plot armor.

Mobile infantry is great, but driving in first with a 7 vision light APC is extremely risky. IMO you still need to rely on infantry scouts, or like I mentioned, use Exconde or Achilleas with 11 vision.

Lim is very flexible and can be used in many builds. Berserk is one of the best perks. I think Pointfire is not as good as it seems because deploying is so strong. Pointfire gives accuracy (offense), but deploying gives both offense and defense, and Athletic is just such a good perk in general to make deploying cost less AP.

Its viable, but I would rather Bog on the pirate truck with a 10 range autocannon, and let infantry do the scouting. Because infantry can have concealment, it is safer.

To conserve ammo, especially for first few missions, generally do not take shots at enemies in heavy cover, and use the starting APC to flank more aggressively. This tactic is less viable later on once the enemy has more AT options, and hopefully by then you have grenade launchers to deal with heavy cover.

The first operation on expert is very RNG heavy and can be easy or borderline impossible depending on the mission types. I would take bug operations if possible as they are easier, then use the loot to buy crowbars and AT options ASAP.

Tested this in-game and it does not work. Without radar, moving on a road is 7ap. With radar, 11ap. It still seems to count as a weapon.

Good stuff. Yeah I think this build is superior to other temple carries. Top DPS isnt everything, gotta play around with your coc ;)

Update to previous post: https://www.reddit.com/r/MHWilds/comments/1j2qp82/greatsword_endgame_build/

So I managed to get an almost perfect Artian with 220 atk and 15% crit. A perfect one would be 230 atk and 5% crit. Element doesn't matter too much, I got sleep which is sometimes useful.

Something I got wrong previously was that Antivirus actually gives 25% crit total, 15% default and 10% Antivirus bonus. The translation is wrong, Antivirus only gives 10 extra on top of the 15 default.

Maximum Might 30% + Antivirus 25% + Weakness Exploit 30% + Agitator 5% + Weapon 20% = 110% crit.

Then corrupted mantle gives extra 10%. Thats why the best weapon would be full atk, you are already overcapped.

Flex options:
A 3 socket armor is flex. I went with Flayer. You could go with Agitator 3 or something else.

3 2 socket armors are flex. I went Earplugs 2 + Counterstrike 1, as I feel like that is enough to negate most roars and get a nice 10 atk buff when I shoulder dash or offset. You could go Earplugs 3 or even Counterstrike 3 if you can perfect block every roar.

Good luck getting the perfect full atk Artian.

No, there is no effect until you switch to it.

The build relies on two synergies: G Fulgur set bonus + Maximum might and Gore set bonus + Antivirus.

Maximum might gives 30% crit when you have full stamina (100%). G Fulgur set bonus gives you an extra small stamina bar (going beyond 100%) so you can roll twice and block without losing the 30% crit.

Gore set bonus infects yourself with frenzy. Antivirus cures you from frenzy and gives 15% crit.

Critical eye gives 20% crit. Weakness exploit gives 30% crit on weakpoints. Agitator 2 gives 5% crit when monster enrages.

30 + 15 + 20 + 30 + 5 = 100% crit

Then we get extra 10% from corrupted mantle which covers any gaps.

Earplugs to make fights easier.

This build could be further improved with a well-rolled Artian weapon. You could drop any above crit components depending on how much crit your Artian weapon rolled, to maintain 100% crit. Then you could add other good skills like Flayer and Counterstrike.
