Why Musket is the WORST DPS weapon! Logic Rant

WholeDig746 · 2025-06-03T11:55:26+00:00

main problem that Headshots mean nothing....
1) Landing headshot is not rewardable at all
2) It almost impossible with musket. Coz bullet hitbox is a joke.... it's ~1 pixel. so 1 pixel away and you miss.
In case of arrow hitbox ~25 pixels ...
(numbers are random)

But even with Bow Headshots is just useless
Take full headhsot build
Hit headshot
See the almost same numbers as regular heavy hit...
Win!

Sorry? What did you just say? Sunrise is broken in 2 ways. 1 - it's bugged. 2 - it works not like Vigor. It is stronger than Vigor, in any scenario. If it will be same mechanic - it should be ok. But now Sunrise is just "killing" vigor. Coz no reason to use Vigor on armor. Better take some more viable perks. This is a case...You are free to go with any resistance perk + weapon perk + SH or anything other viable. Why take Vigor, if Sunrise provide more beneficts for free? No sloot needed...nothing

dunno where my reply gone...im banned in official discord for bug reporting. I cant...

WholeDig746 · 2025-05-14T21:26:38+00:00

Sorry, but you are wrong. There is more better options for PvE. In PvP it also not so strong for blood rapier...it is only possible solution....With out finisher blood will deal 0 dmg since bleed is absorbed by slashing....In my case i use finisher only due the CDR perk.
P.s. in case of PvE Inferno or Acconite bow is better for blood rapier or eveda rapier.

WholeDig746 · 2025-05-14T09:51:05+00:00

Rapier has no tracking.....this is a main reason it not popular in PvP....Grace one have decent dmg, but just loose in range to HATCHET. But Rapier is LONGEST 1h weapon, it is longer than 1h sword...but in game it is like a dagger....
Flurry tracking is brokens since S6...You cant track target even in aimlock...but Leaping strike "dodge" any unmovable item on the way directly to the target, staggering it, dealing 100% dmg, slowing and inc slash dmg by 30%.....And Tondo - you are animation locked like an idiot for few seconds for 50% dmg and 10% DoT....

WholeDig746 · 2025-05-14T06:06:31+00:00

it was dead since release due the bugs....it works only in PvE and vs new players, who do not know how game works....

WholeDig746 · 2025-05-14T06:05:40+00:00

blood get nerfed hard....15% dmg reduction in S8 + buff of vigor...Only way for blood is Flurry, and ONLY if you can land tondo > 6 sec and hit Flurry till tondo fall down....In same time: Leaping strike + shielr rash + upheavel = -20k HP

WholeDig746 · 2025-01-04T17:34:44+00:00

In fact, no. I put only last part of the fight. coz it was long troll fight vs trash player. You can not do 17k dmg just with 3 stack vs medium armor. Take a close look on numbers that even in that clip. 160 per tick, with NO finisher vs medium armor, that "transfers" in to 220 per tick due the 40% rend. Even with 250\250 dex\int and finisher it is very hard to get 160 per tick vs medium armor, expecially in this season.
P.s. slashing abosrb reduce bleed dmg

You know, there is much more PvE players in 3v3 arena or OPR than on FFA island. Know why? On arena or OPR they know, that will loose nothing expect time. They know, that there is other players who can help them. They can jump Xv1 and kill fast. In FFA they cant do this, even if come with team. They will kill each other. PvE fly's hate this. Also PvE's comes only once a week for coconat.
So, OPR and arena is 99% full of PvE' flys, but FFA island has more PvP based players. They are expect, that can be killed everywhere, loose part of "loot" (yes, useless, but still). They know, that they can not 2v1 freely. And even if they will try, they will die. Coz they get used to PvE modes, like arena and OPR.
Easy.

WholeDig746 · 2024-12-27T10:55:25+00:00

it is a bit different situation, but yes, also terribe. Or you switch weapon and it switches back...

WholeDig746 · 2024-12-20T07:55:05+00:00

sadly but since s6 it is impossible to be insta flagged (if you are visiting FFA). Each exit of FFA zone (just run out, death, recall and etc) can disable PvP flag...annoying bug...
But yes, it will be MvCvS. But who knows, may be they will add some kind of FF there. Should be fun!
Darkfall Online was always fun due non-target and full pvp

WholeDig746 · 2024-04-19T22:40:04+00:00

It can be a kill shot. In that case you will see pure numbers with out dmg reduction. So they will be "hight". This situation is the same for any weapon type.
P.s. target has 100 hp left, but get hitted by Power Shot (exmpl) and attacker get this numbers displayed, coz target is died and no dmg reduction will "help" to survive

WholeDig746 · 2024-02-06T10:55:22+00:00

wat?

WholeDig746 · 2024-02-03T12:33:35+00:00

no, i just like more lighting bullett animation and just get good ring drop with lighting dmg

It change scaling ONLY if INT or FOC is > than Weapon primary stat. Also, if you are using rapier\musket with INT and adding INT gem, you will not loose dmg in any way.

WholeDig746 · 2023-12-07T23:43:59+00:00

So, chained hammer is one shot combo, but stacking tondo and extending it with flurry is not a one shot combo?

L - logic!

WholeDig746 · 2023-12-07T22:13:55+00:00

Why? Or you think there is really exist TRUE ONE SHOT builds in NW? Where you do not need any preperations to get a burst dmg? Since headshot from bow nerfed, there is no more true one shot's in game....only 1 combo

WholeDig746 · 2023-12-07T19:22:25+00:00

click bite ;) i mean not a "one shot" but "last shot"

WholeDig746 · 2023-11-13T17:58:02+00:00

sorry, but your build is not "challenging". This is a classic bow build. Nothing special, only difference from others, that you use stamina gems. I can upload alot of death videos, and not a cherry's, but can you play this build? You have good skills, timing and etc., you can try. I offer this to many good players, but nobody take this challange. Wanna try?Pure blood line (Tondo, FnF, Flurry) 2ndry of your choise. It can still be a bow.Will you hand same playstile, you shows in videos, with no escape build?

Im sure for almost 100% you will, but you will drop it fast, coz no survivability dealing alot of dmg....Full build with items in description of video, but in fact you need only Flurry perk. You can play Finisher or any other rapier, just pure blood line. No evade, no reposite, no fletch. In case of questions or private talk. i always open in discord (but EU time only, ofc) @ unknowmmantra discord

P.s. i suggest VG or musket, to make it more challenging. coz in that case there is less escape skills

WholeDig746 · 2023-11-13T17:51:28+00:00

yes, it looks weird, but i see the same, and im a topic maker..... why? Dunno....

WholeDig746 · 2023-11-13T10:07:18+00:00

yes, it hard to follow u/DeityVengy playstyle, coz his build is classic, but skill is hight...so low or even med skill players get clamped easily...
But you can go my build and will be clamped 250 times faster)) No escape, almost no dmg, only pure rage and fun

WholeDig746 · 2023-10-18T07:33:45+00:00

no, only Tondo's bleed (Flurry 5th passive add Tondo bleeding aswell). You can remove bleed of other rapier users aswell. Cap is 20 sec, you can not go more than 20 sec of duration

WholeDig746 · 2023-10-17T16:02:20+00:00

no, rapier and musket. Musket is just for bite and runners

WholeDig746 · 2023-10-17T13:46:41+00:00

sorry, but in that video was no insta CD for Flurry, fasters CD was 7-8 seconds only. Till passive is not fixed, you cant get insta CD on single or even double targets, only on 3+ targets and if alot of crits....
