currently runing the first one but I'm thinking about swapping into witchcraft and wizardry, I'm mostly solo pve, sometimes duo with my mate when he is up, not much into pvp, what armor set and stats should I get on both builds ?
#archery + warfare vs witchcraft + wizardy

for warfare archery (im playing it since 1st day) u go for might(+dex in t4) with weapon power/precision in secondary stats armors either plate/leather 2p+2p or 4p
For witchcraft + wizardy u go full into int + spell power in plates/plates+cloth (best example from twitch is Etup i think)

Honestly archer/warfare does what witch/wiz does with less effort and restrictions. It has lower upfront aoe burst dps but it has shorter cds and more reliable sustain. Also archer is probs best pvp atm, can kite anything without resistance including kiting wiz
willow geyser
yeah + archery works nice with witchcraft passvies due to having 2 additional dots from which dragons arrow is the strongest dot in game rn
knotty salmon
so it looks like arch/war > witch/wiz
and this is how it looks with the amount of SP I have atm
knotty salmon
also Im very low budget atm and I'd like to swap from plate to leather - should I just look for might main stat + wisdom/int and get whatever secondary stat ?
running this acc, got rank4 ranger so maybe there's something better to wear, no trinket atm
dusk pond
so it looks like arch/war > witch/wiz
I definately think so, wiz/witch can push out damage faster but not so consistant and far less sustain as reliant on leech
knotty salmon
@willow geyser what do u think
willow geyser
Didnt play wiz+witch so idk
knotty salmon
I mean about gearing
strong sorrel
You could probably go something like Vit + Prec on plate or leather and u can try both builds easily, then for t4 you'll know which one you like and you could buy t4 gear tailored to whichever build U prefer

wich weapon you running ?
placid ermine
its actually fairly difficult to choose between witch+wiz and archery+warfare both are fun.. wiz prolly better for strictly aoe and archery warfare better for sustain and smaller pulls i think? at least up to level 30
tranquil goblet
Wiz has downtime aoe grinding archer/war jus chain pulls 0 downtime
I find arch war much more enjoyable overall
final galleon
wich weapon yall using ? bow, lightblade or GA ?
placid ermine
@tranquil goblet is the archer/warfare build the same as the OPs build?
tranquil goblet
No not really
I’ll post when I get home in about 30 mins
He’s missing very important skills and passives
placid ermine
ok thank you i feel like maybe i had been doin it wrong since it felt like 3/4 of the power of wiz and i'm not a huge fan of pullin 5-6 mobs then chillin for 30 seconds
tranquil goblet
I’ll toss my build in here in a bit and explain rotation and gear
proud pivot
Do people run War/Arch as melee or does it just greatly reduce the strengths of the build having a bow. Running War/Shadow right now but I like the dots/haste/aoe of arch and might swap.
tranquil goblet
bow/plate might build
careful aim and clear focus will be next 2 passives
then rain of arrows and dragon arrow
cards
feasting strike to heal, precision shot with max aether, quick fire with max aether earth quick with max aether
wind arrow builds your aether
guillotine is finisher with max aether
placid ermine
sweet ty!
tranquil goblet
self healing machine fast af boi
i use concussion with card to change it to confusion before i quick fire
final galleon
weapon used ?
final galleon
wich one is third ? Holy ?
tranquil goblet
weapon used ?
Bow, third is whatever archetype is lowest level so you always keep all archetypes leveled up. Third is your choice later. For me probably shadow

Can confirm build feels great with good self healing and can do pretty decent aoe for sure still need to optimize the rotation since I’m just learning what the abilities are
