@@sageer2585 first of all, LOL. Second of all it's true that barbs don't usually run blood exchange since it does not guarantee the heals (contrary to second wind) since u can just miss the window without doing damage (also you lose 20% of your max health for the duration) I tried it and failed miserably but then you have people like skinny Pete going toe to toe with full pdr fighters with no chest and head armor. I'd say the strategy is the same as second wind, try to bait it out and then avoid the fight until is done
Make sure ur not taking a fight with a barb after getting savage roared. It’s and aoe about that reduces ur attack by 30%, you can tell if you have it with the debuff about ur healthbar(it’s a lil pic of a barb shouting)
a few wipes back when chain lightning hit a lot harder and had 3 charges, i was able to go solo crypts (when it was exclusively for trios) and camp on the "four rooms" module i was climbing the ladder where the health shrine is, was sitting there waiting for a trio to come into this room, in best case someone trying to use health shrine then chain lightning once, intense focus, again chain lightning and most of time people were dead at that point, or the leftovers were easy enough to dispose of it was a disgusting scummy rat move, but i was new to game at that time and it helped me get my stash value up A LOT
I saw a video where someone did this but they pre killed the mummy thats in the room and would zap the body of the mummy forcing the chain. First time i saw it done it blew my mind,
6:20 Not every time people go into a dungeon are they bringing gear to make a build... Sometimes I bring trash gear just to farm so I don't lose anything of value.
It should be noted the blood exchange Achilles is an ALL IN setup. You throw all your resources into a single basket to get the most adv. for a single fight. If you wiff the Achilles you lose. If you use blood exchange at the wrong time you lose. If the enemy knows your setup you lose. If that happens run away and camp to reset and go again.
I can tell you why the wizard left. That room is 1000% a ranger room. His spells move at the speed of smell. Arrows move at the speed of light. Not a fun fight for a wizard.
You did well finding 2 of the most broken combos in the game - Achillies+BE and Logbow+Shotgun. I have been thinking that they should nerf those for a while now. More people should be playing those.
Tbh you could do this on any class really. I dont think shotgun needs to be nerfed though, its not really the shotgun, its the traps. BE is also easy to bait out, most people just don't.
Blood exchange is fine, very high risk high reward. Very punishable. Shotgun might be fine once they fix the jump grouping bug so ppl stop abusing its laser accuracy to get all headshots.
@@Slanderbot I run blood exchange sometimes and I'm pretty sure its literally only good because no one knows what it does lol. Incredibly easy to bait out and running it means you have to choose between achilles and rage which makes you way worse at running people down.
Ooh, I didn't know Blood Exchange ticks off of Achilles Strike. That's nasty. 11:58 😂 Poor guy. We've all been there. One cannot consider themselves a true ranger until they've accidentally stepped in their own traps.
Warlock with longsword and just kiting with curse of pain is weirdly viable with no gear. Sometimes you just parry people and win or harass someone until you win.
Can you help me understand why you use the felling axe over the battleaxe? the felling axe does less damage, swings slower, and has more of a move speed penalty than the battleaxe, so why do so many people use the felling axe?
@@dylancrosby2451 Lol you're literally just wrong, albeit i was incorrect about the move speed, with both weapons have the same base penalty of -35, except for while swinging the weapon, in which case you go 14 points slower while swinging the felling axe than you do while swinging the battle axe, in every other instance the battle axe is still better. It has a higher base damage at 49 compared to the felling axe' 41 damage. It has a faster swing speed, at 2204MS per swing, with each consecutive combo swing being faster than the last, and simultaneously doing more damage, the felling axe on the other hand has one attack, no combos and no variety, this attack is 2700MS long. that's a significant difference in this game. I could go on, about how the battle axe has a longer reach, etc. but I desist. Not sure what the point of your reply was, when you could simply look at the weapons in game and see that what you're saying is false. But I'm sure wherever you got your information is completely valid.
@@jaydynbristol8920 felling axe is fun mostly because you have faster recovery time if the hit lands, and it's a very satisfying animation. my favorite weapon to clear mobs with for sure that being said, whiffing even once is extremely punishing and mostly a death sentence, it's also pretty terrible against skilled longsword fighters (only one attack pattern as you said), plus you get outspaced by other barbs using zweihander or bardiche if you can't get in their face effectively. not to mention bunny hopping makes it much harder to lock down and chase kiters due to the shorter range. i think out of the 2h axes double axe is probably the best, but horsemans is great vs squishies where you'll still kill them really quickly while swinging much faster so more forgiving on missed hits. i know people use the viking sword but it just feels clunky to me
blood exchange is even better with weapons that have long sweeps. had 3 players rush me after my team got killed, popped this and went absolutely mental. all 3 went down even as they wailed on me nonstop.
Haven't played in a while. Is it still possible to stick Ranger Traps to doors with arrows? Last time I played there was this thing it seemed only Ranger mains really knew about where if you shot an arrow into a door, you could place a trap on top of that arrow, making it to where anyone who tried to open the door would automatically get snared as soon as the door swung open. Is that still a thing?
The class that is completely reliant on Strength or Agility? No, its not. But you can build a budget strength build and kill a geared out rondel fighter and get rich quick
did they nerf blood exchange with achilles strike combo? Or is it still possible a month later? (i don't want to go through the patch notes, my mind hurts when i read more than two sentences)
thats why they removed squire gear players from highroller, and because bis players feel the need to run through half the map while fighting then cry that somebody else looted one of "their" kills
@@haga7466 tbh? nah. imagine losing 20-30k gold kit because a cheater instakill you or two dudes team up to rush you down. i think going with a safe gear on hr should be normalized.
