the only bad thing about these videos is that now I wish there were guides this good for other weapons
this is so true
This is an amazing guide! For someone who just picked up spear it is perfect.
You're lucky!
Thanks man, your videos got me to try spears and it is by far the most enjoyable weapon line i've tried so far ❤
I am very happy to hear that! Spear is so much fun and just the perfect amount of challenging vs rewarding in my opinion!
1:41 i guess i know what i am now
7:30 and that silence after the statement ... let it sink in very deep 😂🤣
Very good video man keep it up
Thanks, man!
great video !! btw mage cowl got buffed in todays update. from 30 sec CD to 20 sec
Thank you!!
I haven't tried mage cowl for a while because the utility of other headpieces seems much more valuable to me than just extra damage. If I understood patch correctly, the overall DPS of mage cowl got a +10% buff so might be a good time to test it out, you're right.
very great video I wish other weapon has guides like this, also which passive do I use for my head and armor Quick Thinker or Balanced Mind?
I use my whole build to balance between CDR and being tanky. My favourite is using roasted snapper and going for cdr passives. However, if I use eel stew or mistcaller then instead I would take balanced mind!
@@VicZaneGaming what food can be a cheaper alternative
Hello Vic, very important topic that you did not cover I think ? What are the best stats on a spear when you awaken it ? Thanks !
Hey! Yeah you're right, I did not talk about awakening the Spear because I don't usually use awakened weapons myself. One problem with awakening spear specifically is that you really want to have access to Impaler for certain fights but 4.4 or 5.4 spears will not have it and attuning 6.4 gets expensive very fast.
For traits, however, I think CDR and Max Hp are going to be the absolute best (as with most weapons I guess). Next, I would choose Defense vs All. And finally: Ability damage, Item Power, Attack speed and Lifesteal all seem decent B tier traits to me.
I pretty much only play spear, and my high IP setup is Cultist cowl, mistwalker jacket, I feel like its really strong in most matchups, since the mistwalker is really op vs the traditional bloodletter build, but can be very tricky vs long range kite such as frost
That's interesting to hear. I feel like cultist can be very hit-or-miss. Against some builds it's strong but against some others not useful at all. Kinda same story with Mistwalker but I suppose you can win a whole fight sometimes simply by using it at the perfect moment. Do you change to inferno often?
@@VicZaneGaming Yeah, I switch to inferno in pretty much every matchup that my opp could bait my mistwalker, like Baxe
nice video. I can't decide between stalker hood and mercenary hood any help on that ? and how do you deal with carving swords using mercenary hood since you can hardly brawl against them without stalker hood ?
I do prefer stalker hood for more aggressive brawling and being able to execute. Against carving, food determines more than helmet in my experience. If they are on eel stew and you eat roast snapper, you can brawl very well. But you are very correct that merc hood should make you lean towards kiting more. Especially until you get Q stacks up. Carving can kind of keep up but with cripple it's still pretty kite-able fight.
@@VicZaneGaming thank you for the insight
I always wanted to use hermon spear and shield, like spartan warriors. What do you think about it? Will it be really bad for pvp?
It will very difficult to play it in Mists because of lack of mobility. Doesn't mean you shouldn't follow your dream to be a spartan warrior but it can be frustrating if you can only win against enemies who are being too aggressive and chasing you. It's a bit easier to make it work in corrupted dungeons although some of the same problems will apply.
I'm trying a lifesteal build on daybreaker, with merc jack, hunter hood and roasted pork which is alot different from the objective of ur build, what r ur thoughts on that🙌
I very much love the idea to play daybreaker as a tanky, sustain-based build. In fact, I will be speccing up daybreaker soon on EU and will probably try something like that out also. Roast pork and merc jacket seem decent but I don't like hunter hood. I feel much stronger when I have a helmet that allows me to make plays and daybreaker already suffers from mobility problems against mist builds (unless you hit a perfect E to purge their mobility). I would definitely prefer fiend cowl or helmet of valor.
@@VicZaneGaming i thought about that too, but I'm trying to keep it cheap until i get the hang of it, btw if u r streaming on twitch can u add a link 🙌🙌 i would love to join ur stream
hello what is the brawling food,
I can't spell the name to search in market. I'm fairly new so I don't know much about food.
It's roasted snapper. It can be tier3, tier5 or tier7 and its exact name will depend on its tier: "Roasted Puremist Snapper" (t7), "Roasted Clearhaze snapper" (t5) or "Roasted Whitefog Snapper" (t3).
I run 4.3 assasin jacket cowl of purity soldier boots torch and undead cape
What if i use hunter jacket 3rd slot skill for pve and inferno shield for pvp?
I like the idea in theory but there is one dealbreaker for me which is that too often there isn't really time to switch spells between PvE and PvP. I wouldn't want to miss out on good opportunities to fight because I wasn't ready with my spells.
On top of that - spear doesn't really struggle with PvE so the Hunter Jacket 3rd isn't really necessary. If you want to speed up your PvE clearing without harming your PvP readiness then stalker jacket feels like a better option.
What do you think about mercenary jacket?
I've tried it but I don't like it. I feel like on the 1h spear it's much much easier to get good value out of inferno shield than merc jacket heal.
And for inferno, I prefer one of the jackets with +30% damage (merc jacket gives +20%)
should i wear assassin jacket early game and upgrade to stalker jacket in late game?
That sounds like a good plan if by 'early game' you mean low IP and by 'late game' you mean high IP. But you can also just run inferno shield on a good leather jacket in late game.
May ask what passives should i pick for the helmet, armor and boots?
For plate boots, defense passive. For cloth cowl (if you are using one) I'd take the damage passive. However, for leather armor pieces I would choose based on the rest of your build to balance between both cooldown reduction and overall tankiness. I prefer to eat roasted snapper and take CDR passives but if you have plenty of CDR already from other sources, take the 'balanced mind'. You will get a bit more of this answer in part 4 of the guide.
@@VicZaneGaming Thank you, i really appreciate it🙏
Why not pair mercenry jacket and first w u will hit all the w's and will have suistaine ?
Forest of spears is unfortunately very weak in pvp because a) there is no way to force your opponent to just stand there and take the damage and b) some of the other Ws are incredibly valuable.
I think you'll find part of the answer in Part 3 where I discuss spells.
Was that a fawn drop?😂
what about passive on ur helmet / chest ? :)
Hey :) I cover this idea a bit in Episode 4 but the short answer is that I choose either Balanced Mind or Quick Thinker to compensate for what the rest of my build doesn't have and balance between tankiness and cooldown reduction. For example if you choose CDR in other places (food, mistcaller), then don't take CDR passives. But if you are more of a tanky brawler, take cdr.
Thanks for your answer, i’m also a spear addict and i have to say that every thing u said is just perfection.
But one more thing, do you use your stalker helmet when engaging ? Most of the time i keep it as my finisher but i’m pretty sure it will be up again to finish the fight if i use it very early (if no assassin jacket)
@@KingTogoday Yeah absolutely. If the enemy doesn't have invis that I might need stalker hood for, I try to use it just for trades during fight and not only for executing.
How much ip is considered high ip?
Good question. In my head tier 4-6 feels low, 7-8 feels midtier and 6.3+ feels high IP.
