Amazing guide and straight to the point. Do you have an update on your gear from the Valk montage from a few months ago? Also do you do T1/T2? Interested to see your addons.
Sure! Current Gear and Addons. I have done all Tiers and Uncapped, at the moment T1, 2 and 3. Addons: imgur.com/a/4CKYd6P Garmoth: garmoth.com/character/DNsj9xXMsu
@@scruffoon Thanks for the reply. Why do you prefer all out attack vs target openings or crocodile tooth? is it just cause of the +20 hidden AP instead of +8 and 2% more crit dmg?
Are u open to share crystals and lightstones, too? If u don’t mind, I’d love to know those and maybe ur dr build! And would you use same addons except dp+ / human ap+ on capped wars?
This is what I walk around in. For Capped I basically remove the stuff that doesn't get applied and replace it with Bleed or more % Damage like Crit/Back/Down etc. imgur.com/a/aRzEYXD
Kinda new to valk so I have few problem: 1. idk why but I can't use Q to guard, still can do on other char 2. my Shift+direction work in different way haha, it work with S+W only but won't swap to preawk like in the video
1. Maybe check keybinds? Q is default unless you have bound it to something else. Keybinds are Character specific, not account specific. 2. Shift W will stay in awaken, Shift A and D will put you into Main Hand. and Shift S will keep you in awaken for one dash, and then put you in main hand for the 2nd dash onwards. Hope this helps
@@scruffoon so weird man, I checked everything, reset setting and stuffs, created 1 in trial all good, but when switch back to my main valk it still have that problem haha
These are my PVP Addons - For Node Wars (Capped) just remove the Human Damage, DP up and DP down and replace with whatveer. Atk speed, acc, evasion down etc.
Valk, Warrior and Nova. There is an argument for Guardian but the DP buff is missing on the Q block, it gets damage instead. Scholar has really good DP buffs but doesnt have a SA Q Block like the rest sadly.
No problem. I chuck +DP addon on top of purification. Space while in Q block for the 1 minute DP/Accuracy buff. E buff. These are the main DP increases. @@dim3920
Most of the guide is pretty solid, but Verdict core? What situations are you using it in? With the KD only applying on the first hit it's not being great for fishing, and if you use it in a combo and the down smashes go thru you've just wasted that 4 sec of KD where you can fit in extra dmg. Especially where hasti, sacrum and F cores can be blended into a combo much better with no accidental d/s and are way better for fishing. Only other miiinor things: you can cancel vacuum with Q not just movement. Also if you are looking for that crit buff but don't want to use up a c/d cuz ur about to go in, your RMB shimmy also grants the crit buff and can be spammed. All around tho, solid vid!
Hey, thanks for the comment and input! The reason I say Verdict core is an option is purely the large AoE KD potential for NW, and ease of use to a newer Valk player. I use Enslar almost exclusively, but Verdict will most likely be used as part of an SA combo and i wanted to make sure the option was there. Valkyrie is lucky to have a good amount of Core skills that are worth taking so it will come down to each persons preference. Cheers
Take a look at awk valks in NW/sieges. They use verdict cores and get a lot of KDs. A KDed opponent is often dead opponent when the guy gets hammered by the rest of your team as well.
@GensUnaSumus09 sure, but again, with only one hit of CC, your chances of catching someone with that isn't the greatest which is why you see a lot of hasti and enlar core. If it works for you great, but there's a reason why Raiden and Military opt for other cores
Can still do it, the only difference is when you are out of stamina is slows down to about half speed. For lazy grinding I still use it and watch things on the side
I mean there are multiple reasons why both combos are very suboptimal, the first one you are not using air attack on puri, you are also not using your KD resistance debuff before the re cc or your evasion debuff, your enslar combo makes no sense, why would you recc with grab on a class that doesn't have a ignore grab resistance passive or a kd grab, they are just going to get up in the middle of your combo or res your grab
Did "protected valk train" get nerfed or am I just bad? Do I need to lock any skills? I notice I use vindicta when performing the combo and it stops me in place. Because of this I will just skip learning it until I get more clarity.
Just tested it again, still working. LMB, SPACE, Q, repeat. Don't hold them, press each one after the other and repeat. Also attack speed helps. Make sure alchemy stone is on.

finally not a 40 minutes useless mambo jumbo words guide, perfect for getting it and refresh for older players.
Cheers, this is what I am going for
easy to understand guide!
Thanks, that is what I am aiming for. Hope it helped
I’m slowly getting drawn into Awk Valk - I might just give in and make one 😂

Open world PVP generally using Iron Walls for DR. T1 Stomping, just cos its cheaper. T2 I take the siege resist set@@chetcongo1438
nice guide! do you enjoy grinding on your valk or do you tag something instead?
I have a scholar tagged,. I enjoy valk but it can get a bit tiring 3+ hours in
Are u open to share crystals and lightstones, too? If u don’t mind, I’d love to know those and maybe ur dr build! And would you use same addons except dp+ / human ap+ on capped wars?

@@thongchi5632 No idea to be honest, maybe its time for a new season valk
Do you have any "starting" guide like what skills to lock/bar rabams and stuff???
this guide is lit
I lock the following:
Absolute: Forward slash
Absolute: Charging Slash
Absolute: Severing Light
Absolute: Glaring Slash
Absolute: Flurry of Kicks
Rage Transfer
Rabams:
Celestial Cry - Heal
Divine Descent - Special Attack Buff
Divine Judgement of Light
what addons do u use for PVP node wars tho i seen it in PVE but that is PVE or is it the same
These are my PVP Addons - For Node Wars (Capped) just remove the Human Damage, DP up and DP down and replace with whatveer. Atk speed, acc, evasion down etc.
What would you say are the top 3 tankiest classes when built properly. Thanks
Valk, Warrior and Nova. There is an argument for Guardian but the DP buff is missing on the Q block, it gets damage instead. Scholar has really good DP buffs but doesnt have a SA Q Block like the rest sadly.
@@scruffoon thanks for the reply. Could you point out some of the main skills valkyrie uses to keep her dp buffs up? Thanks again. I m very much new!

Nice, man
How is the valk train since nerf?
Can still do it, the only difference is when you are out of stamina is slows down to about half speed. For lazy grinding I still use it and watch things on the side
@@scruffoon ah awesome, thanks.
I get that you were going for a quick guide, but you could at least include a decent combo in there, come on man
There are 2 combos in there, if you don't find them decent that's cool but both are good options in my opinion. Cheers
