Dex Guard with 4x upg

[White Arctic Fox]

So im wondering if i'd make a 4x upg weapon for my dex guard, what opts should i put on it (I know dex guards arent really viable for pvp but they are so much fun)

option 1: full crit
option 2: semi crit + 1 shiney teardrops of edonah
option 3: semi crit + 1x shiney Burner of marea
option 4: full dmg drop (shiney Burner of marea)

opt 1 or 2 seem legit but has anyone any experience with a dex guard + full 4xupg weapon that would like to help out

I suggest go with 4x Sword DD and Dag full crit or Full DD

well if i would use the epic rings too that would give me another 12% critrate so i dont know if i need full crit on my weapon or that it would be usefull to use the 8-10% hp/mp abso stone considdering a 115 guard has aoe it should be really easy to heal up when getting a few aoe crits in CS+ OS combo but i have no clue if anyone tried this yet...

i was planning on using a dagger and shield but i guess using a dagger and a sword would be possible too tho i Always played dex guards with shield + dagger. i never played with upgr weapons, i qui ran when they came and moved to jin and isen so i honestly dont know whats the best build lol

Ken seems ur a vit dekan, are vit dekans (dragon knight) with 4xupg able to kill temps/dhans with 4x upg?

[treintram]

Guards are one of the few that can get 100dd.
dead guard = no damage

I 100% do not believe that anyone should put anything BUT dmg drop on their 4parts and here is the break down as to why.

14% dd on the weapon means that you have a VERY limited option to who you can sell to after you make it.

People dont play crit based classes any more. While dhans are crit based classes many people have found that getting boost lvl 6/7 is more than enough to substitute the extra % they would gain from forging a crit rate weapon most dhans now a days are str. So all the bonus AA crits are simply just that bonus AA crits.

So what does that mean.

The weapon has a much much much lower resale value. IE 10-12k rps where as you have 65 dd weapons selling for 22-25k rp. Your upgrade wont be worth spit. Barely worth the value of the parts and stones to forge it.

IF you really wanna go dex guard.

Use an axe + dagger with full dd.

You still will get sub 5xx atk speed with this combo you will be getting close to or over 100% dd. This means that you being full dex wont be an issue when it comes to people hitting you such as templars. Dekans will still 1shot you. However with your aoe skill with order swing. You will be stacking up massive dmg in a hurry. Also in most pvp instances, they wont realize that your where the dmg is coming from untill you knights symbol someone for a massive amount of dmg.

My guard with 100% dd wasnt dex but still built up over 40k knights symbol no crit on people.

Again a good dhan will kill you and or dekans will 1 shot you but you will be pretty much immune to the rest of the dmg.
