After playing different varieties of straight MS or PDR - as well as a mix of both, I can personally say it’s all preference and what matches your play style. Full plate armor with max PDR is awesome for tanking some shots, but you’ll need to be able to since you can’t move quickly. Fast MS and low armor allows you to poke in and out of fights, but make sure to pop a potion of protection before you fight as to not get headshot into oblivion. I personally prefer a good blend of both. Get some good cloth pants, plate chest/head and pick the rest out for yourself based on rolls/attributes. It’s all trial and error my friend. A streamer can give you a “god loadout” and while it’s super helpful, it might not be exactly what you’re looking for. Give different things a try and see what works for you.
Started when the game went free. Picked fighter against my gut instinct because a lot of people said it's good for beginners. Still haven't been able to set aside the $30 for legendary edition to try other classes, but I'm trying to get better with longsword regardless. My biggest hurdle is aiming blocks, and I think a big help for this would be at least an option to remove the crosshair when blocking, or in general with melee. I keep instinctually blocking with the crosshair instead of the blade because it stands out so much more in the gloominess of the dungeons.
Like the other guy says, youll develope a sense for its place in 3d space the more you use it. Something thay may help is to appreciate how the sword point out from your body. This means that trying to block close will only work with the hilt/cross guard area which is close to your body. This is actually a good thing though because you can parry blows from a further distance than youd think with the length of the sword. Also dont even bother trying to riposte daggers, nigh impossible because their hitbox is almost always active once its already behind your sword
I took off defense mastery recently and put on weapon mastery to use bows because defence mastery only gave me 1% extra armor rating. Is the 1% AR worth keeping it?
@@Woobieeee shield mastery gives +50% action speed on your next block(which, if you're parrying with LS, this applies the +50% to your riposte) after successful block whereas counter attack only gives +10%
I feel like a fighter I need to do SO MUCH to have a chance against other classes. Especially against rangers and warlocks but clerics too. I know I'm a noob but I'm starting to think there's more to my experiences than just being bad.
@@DukeJohnny it’s cuz fighter is by far the weakest class right now and if you play long sword or slayer your even worse off even if your insane it’s hard to win fights against good players
Im currently level 128 on fighter with 100 levels being with the longsword. Its a tough beat out her sometimes, but if you dont stand up for your own drip then youre no man. stay strong johnny.
i cant get down with the riposte philosophy. For starters, having a philosophy of "just dont get hit" you see with a lot of kiting styles is better in general unless you get trapped, then the philosophy for armor is good as in "if you do get hit wear armor to mitigate". Waiting for a riposte not only denies kiting, but makes you DEPEND on armor by INVITING a hit that might not even come, and then its like "if you do get hit you MIGHT be able to do a strong counter hit". add in DaD's hitbox jank and youre just setting yourself up for failure.
Man what is up with mace parries here recently?? Seems like the past few months they’ve gotten waayy harder to land, when they use to be one of the easiest hitboxes to catch.
I’ve come to find the ultimate yeti sauce. You don’t even need to move you just crouch and look right then left and it repost he won’t hit his second swing but it hits you sometimes if you don’t turn enough or maybe just him repositioning? But makes it even easier and very fast

@@ronniepeter7611 in general Warlocks can outrange fighters who don't have bows from weapon master, Curse of Pain and healing from their own hydras can result in a really long and dragged out fight if the Warlock spaces the fight well.

Fighter isn't in a great spot right now, it's a decent class but there's better options in my opinion. Sparky is just a Chad and does what he wants.
It’s basically a Druid that is less geared dependent but can’t heal or escape. And that’s okay 👍
