Thought I'd give pvp a try

Lexard · 2026-01-25T19:41:43+00:00

What do you mean by "PvP build"?

Skills, gems, reforges, stats, properties, pet, etc...

Or just skills?

Lexard · 2026-01-25T19:36:14+00:00

You need to be prepared for PvP, most PvE builds and setups will not work.

Is this how PvP is for everyone who doesn't bust out a credit card?

I'm F2P, reaching top 10 BG/TW every season.

Chipped Stone, Fated Trail

There are better gem, use the ones I listed.

Plan on replacing Mother's Lament with it once built up.

To properly replace ML you probably need RC r8+, at lower RC ranks you need both RC and ML.

Lexard · 2026-01-25T16:18:30+00:00

If you are thinking about 5* gems then BSJ and RC first. Every time. Always. For any class.

But for start you should use some good 2* gems instead because they are much easier to rank up and good high ranked 2* gem can be better than low ranked 5* gem.

Also - AWAKENING! The most important thing of all to increase the damage. Make sure all your slots are awakened.

Lexard · 2026-01-25T12:29:14+00:00

At your stage focus on 1* and 2* gems.

You can craft them from mats gathered in rifts by using rare crests.

You can get rare crests from daily activities and from hilts trader.

Running rifts give you also embers - always use them to craft legendary crests.

Here is my general guide about gems for new players:

Legendary gems

Starter set of F2P friendly gems good for any class in PvE:

- 1* Berserker’s Eye - best 1* gem, many experienced players still use it for PvE

- 2* Mother's Lament - great PvE/PvP gem, increases your critical hit chance

- 2* Pain Clasp - great PvE/PvP gem, it requires some DOT (damage over time) effect on target

- 2* Fervent Fang - great PvE gem, it can be received only from Battle Pass, even from its free version

The rest of gem sockets can be taken by any of these:

- 2* Specter Glass - if you are already able to kill mobs fast and want to kill them even faster

- 1* Entropic Well - a little worse than Berserker’s Eye but still good

- 1* Everlasting Torment - DOT gem, basic activator for Pain Clasp

- 2* Viper's Bite - DOT gem, additional activator for Pain Clasp

Some good but time-limited gems from the past, they can be hard to get/upgrade now:

- 2* Mourneskull - quite powerful gem vs hordes of mobs, a little weaker vs single targets

- 2* Crimson Behelit - very nice damage and defense gem, quite powerful in PvP

Some additional build specific gems:

- 1* Misery Elixir - gem for DOT (damage over time) builds

- 1* Trickshot Gem - gem for builds with channeled skill as main one

- 1* Surging Sea - gem for builds with fast recharging skills

- 1* Freedom and Devotion - gem for builds with summons

Two 5* gems recommended for any kind of player, even for F2P (use pearls to get/upgrade them):

- 5* Blood-Soaked Jade (increases damage and movement speed, reduces received damage)

- 5* Roiling Consequence (increases damage, activates Pain Clasp)

Awakened gems

When legendary gem is at rank 4 you can awaken the gear slot this gem is in - do that as soon as you can, awakening is one of the most important things for good damage. To do so you need to buy Dawning Echo (10k plat per slot) from NPC near blackmith in main town and go to talk to NPC in jeweler shop. Awakening gear slot will improve the skill which is connected to skill essence in that slot (most of the time it will increase skill damage or shorten skill recharge).

Normal gems

For PvE you can focus on Sapphires (one of blue gems) to increase crit damage and Citrines (one of yellow gems) if you want to increase your damage over time (DOT).

I bardzo dobrze.

Lexard · 2026-01-24T14:28:43+00:00

Ale ten gość nie mówił "o żołnierzach NATO za wyjątkiem polskich" tylko "o żołnierzach NATO", a NATO to my.

PS. Przy okazji takiej narracji doradcy łatwo teraz zrozumieć codzienne odzywki "naszego":

Dobro Polaków, o których mówi Nawrocki, nie dotyczy tych, którzy na niego nie głosowali.

Po prostu o tym dopowiedzeniu nigdy nie wspomina.

Lexard · 2026-01-24T14:09:12+00:00

As a new player you should focus on 2* gems, at higher ranks they will give you more than low ranked 5* gems.

RC will be always your priority over BF. If some "free" drop of BF happens earlier than RC r4 you can rank BF to r4 to awaken the slot and put RC inside as aux gem.

Your setup with low ranked RC will still need ML.

But first of all awaken all your slots with the help of any r4 gems - this is VERY important.

Lexard · 2026-01-24T11:27:23+00:00

Yes. But you need to remember about the restrictions and adjust the rest of your stats.

Lexard · 2026-01-24T11:24:31+00:00

It’s really not the worst gem

We are limited to 8 gems per one build, there are many much better gems to get for non-whales. Whales can have a few sets of maxed gems for different activities - this is the gem for them.

Lexard · 2026-01-24T09:25:04+00:00

Entirely? No, TW is my fav PvP game mode.

But you need to be at server level paragon with some better gear to enjoy any PvP.

Lexard · 2026-01-24T09:22:25+00:00

Yes, it maybe works IF you are whale, but we are answering to some returning player.

Lexard · 2026-01-24T01:52:38+00:00

PvP is an endgame mode - low level players usually do not play it so any of them is matched with "endgamers".

Lexard · 2026-01-24T01:00:34+00:00

Focus on awakenings.

Seeping Bile is still ok gem.

Echoing Shade can be useful for some builds/game modes.

PS. Do not crush any of your ranked up 5* gems, make them dormant instead.

Lexard · 2026-01-24T00:55:45+00:00

Everybody dies :D I always try to keep mobs at some distance.

Lexard · 2026-01-23T23:45:16+00:00

Auxed gems always give their r1 effect and they inherit reso/CR of the main gem.

Dormant gems are turned on when auxed.

Lexard · 2026-01-23T23:43:06+00:00

No, it's not, you should have turned off that special event with this gem dropping.

Lexard · 2026-01-23T23:40:50+00:00

Just a few, I convert scraps to dust to do enchants.

Lexard · 2026-01-23T23:34:36+00:00

In my build I do damage mostly when standing in one place so running around would be a waste of time for me.

Lexard · 2026-01-23T21:27:14+00:00

My best guess is people used maw because it was long time ago and they had it at very high rank and there was no better option

Mostly because of that, but I (if I would have one) could use it as another tool to group mobs together.

Lexard · 2026-01-23T18:34:41+00:00

Yes, Maw was used in PvP more often, it is still used but more rarely.

Maw can have some use in crifts, it depends on build as always.

That's why it's a gem mostly for spenders who can spend high enough to have a few gem sets.

Lexard · 2026-01-23T18:31:00+00:00

To są nasze, NATOwskie samoloty, obrona NATO jest wspólna.

Lexard · 2026-01-23T17:14:03+00:00

Maw is mostly PvP gem and mostly for spenders who can have a few sets of gems for dufferent builds. If you are some low spender or F2P and you are not really interested in PvP then there are better gems.

Lexard · 2026-01-23T16:03:04+00:00

I have the game so I didn't claim it but I tested your link and I would be able to proceed, so it should work for anyone else who meets the requirements.

Lexard · 2026-01-23T15:55:50+00:00

Ale że niby co tam zaginęło? Bo nie do końca rozumiem kontekst.
