    Step 1: consider fighting back when you’re getting hunted. Practicing in unideal situations generally yields more benefits than constantly being smothered by the “rules” in a fair fight. Even if they’re one of those guys that have 1.1k kills in 50 hours, allot of those kills just come from them either killing the same person over and over again during a practice (which gets them accustomed to the “rules” and is also why they’re usually incredibly petty when they lose) or from killing the average ravenna level 93 random.
    TLDR: more pvp can only be beneficial for your improvement.

      Fighting in unideal situations will not necessarely help you any more than any other situation. What matter's is to learn while you fight, and that needs to be done consciously, otherwise It doesn't matter the situation you will not be learning anything.

      Easy for people who dont go to college or don’t take much classes in high school of college. Really damn hard when you have so much work you can’t practice pvp. (I am the one swamped with work, the only thing carrying me in being good at pvp despite being rusty right now is meta magic and stats. Tho I do wanna start coming back because vitality sounds sick and I wanna use) Edit: yeah I’m afraid to say I broke my oath of never becoming a metal mage with 200 size

      College student as well. And yeah i get what you mean by just not having time, something that can help with this is just having specific and good practice. Have a competent sparring partner and understand your kit/moveset better. A competent sparring partner will piece you up when you make a mistake and that will be how you find what youre doing wrong the quickest.

    When you mentioned the very small difference between pve and pvp players I lit up a bit. I have less than half player kills compared to my hours on all of my files since release, I've never grinded renown or really ever been considered a 'pvper' and yet i can kill people that I have no business killing.
    I always used to say that 'the only difference between pvpers and pve players is pvpers have a fragile ego.' and while this is a bit of a generalisation, I'd say it does hold some truth in that pvpers believe themselves to be superior when the skill gap isn't that great.

    2. make sure to use different explosions on different magics like pillar and sphere , if they're in the air you can use pillar and if they're on the ground use sphere

    man it's people like you who rekindle my spark to keep playing arcane despite its unideal conditions (on my end, a very low-end pc and the lack to truly commit to a game for hours on end, and the community doesn't exactly do wonders for both of these given how toxic it can be)
    my mindset has switched to playing arcane solely for enjoyment--not following the meta and just finding solace in minor things that people normally wouldn't look too far into, like the scenery, getting immersed in the progression, trying to make my own stories for my files
    and yeah while that can combat my wants to actually play on a level alongside the majority that can actually DO things in the game with no relative difficulty, at the very least i'm not siphoning my life away purely for vassal, just taking my own pace yk?

    Thanks man, I suck at pvp, its honestly a bit too fast for me, not to mention my builds tend to be confusing and kinda bad. As an explosion conj, I often would just try to dance around and see when I can get a hit. But knowing to stay a distance more often will be useful, thanks! (Also my weapon set up tends to be weird cause I set it up for mobility (dual swords), massive aoe (The assassin guy's beast claws), and crazy damage (dual bronze flink-locks, I know its really bad for PVP, but it is often devastating in pve)
    I'd love to see a part 2!

  • @dryleavesonfire
    @dryleavesonfire Před měsícem +3

    YES, ive been saying this for so long. Hybrids tend to heavily rely on one aspect of their build and neglect the other, only using it when they have no other option. This isnt inherently a bad thing, but it will in no way match against a hybrid player who can use BOTH aspects well. A hybrids whole shtick is about being a mix. You cant out magic a mage, you cant out weapon a warrior, and you cant out strength a berserker. Your selling point is being able to tap into MULTIPLE styles of combat where others fall short.
    Also, its good to be creative with how you fight. Having an unorthodox playstyle would be funner than playing a recommended build that gets stale quickly. You can use sword draws and snares to dodge, you can use reflexes to hide an incoming attack (slightly makes the attacks start animation less noticable) etc.
    I also agree with your point about aiming. Sure, its a very important skill (essential if you want to be lb), but its ineffective if you dont have good TIMING/POSITIONING. Every move has a cost. Is it worth it? What are the chances of it landing, and what are the chances they are going to take advantage of your endlag and succeed?
    Id also recommend playing around with other classes, whether that be making alts or sparring different kinds of players. By learning the ins and outs of every move in ao, your situational awareness increases too.

    • @stereotypic_asian
      @stereotypic_asian  Před měsícem +1

      100% agree with everything here. The only reason why i became knowledgeable on all methods of combat (and able to make this series) is because I have 9 saves with various methods of combat and playstyles. And because im so used to so many different classes, from both playing against and playing as, I always have a good fighting chance against anyone I play against.

    Conjurers are split into conj and monj based on their playstles (weapon conj and magic conj respectively)
    Generally as a copnj you main your weapons and use magic purely for leap and or snare, because thanks to synergies, weapons are WAY more effective than magics at dmg output. Which is why most people play conj and not monj

    Theres more than one reason why you should go in the air.
    Some attacks like beam or blast have an explosion that is larger than the attack itself. If you are in the air, they will have to hit you with the attack and not the explosion, making it harder for them to hit you.
    You also constantly move in the air, usually down due to gravity. After doing an attack, there might be some time standing still before you dodge. If you are on the ground that is esentially more time on top of the endlag.
    Do note however that I almost entirely PVE (and only play classes that have magic). This is just what I believe is the case.

    A useful guide that doesnt only go in terms of mechaniqs but also mentality, AO is still far from optimized so keeping a good mind whilst playing instead of ranting problems can be a game changer into getting yourself in the flow of things during PvP and having good fundamentals of what you should use for your advantage.

    I mostly overcharge my beams so I remain in the air for too long making me vulnerable to attacks so I learn to slightly charge my beams and attack at medium range.
    I use Auras (cuz I’m mage) to increase my speed of my attacks so I’m less vulnerable as well. I also practice blocking and parrying a bit more to negate damages done to me and
    lastly, I am trying to go my best not to be afraid to use surge since it helped me turn the tide in battles quickly as I’m able to deal out high damage without much aiming

  • @scouty1922
    @scouty1922 Před měsícem +1

    I'm going to throw in my two cents here and speak from my experience -
    The strongest tool is punishing. All builds can do it, and almost all builds are vulnerable to it. Also, learn your opponent. I excel and punishing mistakes I know my friends will make, it's like another boss fight, but you need to keep thinking on your feet. They likey match you in strength and skill, so be creative and unpredictable. Lastly, movement. Not moving is often bad, but sometimes can bait out attacks (shift to dash while charging works so well). You also can't always be airborne, and if you use up all your movement, you can leave yourself wide open. Have mutliple midair options, ways to rapidly change elevation, and dash to evade when necessary, though using it to get it/out of the opponent's face or confuse them is effective.
    Also, Knights and defence builds- Get up close with any opponent with 1000 health or less. You can almost always trade hits and come out on top

    Yeah, honestly, the difference between PVP and PVE players is 1. gear, and 2. Meta knowledge. Just getting a decent gearset, dosnt even need to be sunkens, will MASSIVELY help, and the same is true for your attacks, makeing a good weapon or good spell will massively help. As a mage, here are some tips I can give:
    1. Blast shape should be cube, the AOE makes it really good, just try to aim for where the enemy will be, not where they are.
    2. Beams are nice, but deal less damage than blasts
    3. Shockwave placed explosions are really good
    4. PULSAR PULSAR PULSAR, its OBSCENELY strong

      Horizontal slash can really punish if they don't go off the ground. It also helps if there's lots of rubble or piles.
      Also snare is actually pretty good now. It used to be so inconsistent, but now even with a small magic like lightning you can totally use it to punish opponents for getting too close. It can also be used in pve when fighting captains since they can't attack you while you have them grabbed.

    Obligatory not a pvp sweat but, another tip i think should be accounted for is that, the gear you run can also change how you play in some cases, for example I run a 184 power, 1k defense 6 drawback build with vindi, triasta and sunken staff (yes i know, all size warrior gear) and i find that playing hyper aggressive as if i was a warlord is really effective.
    second tip for people playing warlord, if you need practice using your fighting style, do some pvp with thermo, since you cant charge it before a fight anymore, you have to use it mid fight which can serve as god practice for actually using your fs.

  • @CindersGD
    @CindersGD Před měsícem +3

    I think the main thing to remember about pvp is that this game is more build dependent than skill. Using something that's comfortable and practical is more useful than something that yields theoretical dps. Don't cave in to people complaining about your build because whatever you use, someone is going to talk smack about it. And yeah practice practice practice.
    My personal way of getting better was using an extremely hard build until I just got robotic aim, it's nice having a challenge to push yourself once you are familiar with the fundamentals.

    • @stereotypic_asian

      Movement in AO is by far much more interesting than most rpg games. Movement in AO is what makes the game unique and fun. I remember fighting a light conjurer flying high into the air getting ready to airstall and rain hell only to see me approaching up to the same height with my leglord and him panicking a bit. AO's movement is just as an important skill to aim and blocking unlike most other games and I hope to see it expanded on in the future.

      its not them, its u. dont be intimidated by players with lots of pks and hrs, its a good opportunity to fight them. even tho u might lose, dont be afraid to fail you'll usually learn a thing or two from fighting good players. Take note of their class, weapons, build, playstyle as you will expand your understanding on how to play with or counter certain classes which is esp useful for climbing lb. As you with the current ecosystem of aoe demons running rampant, parrying is ur best friend and dont take fights you know you wont win ( watch out for gankers ) even tho they might call you "runner" or "fodder". I've seen people with half decent aim climb lb

      Heres another thing. High PK most of the time means they just fight anyone they see, and 90% of players dont pvp. That just means they mostly fight easy opponents. Of course not 100% of the time, but you might actually have a good chance to beat them. I can fight against some players that have more than 4x the amt of PK as me and still win sometimes. PK does not equate at all to skill.

    • @stereotypic_asian

      Same thing here but to a much lesser degree. Aiming at someone above you is much harder than someone below you. Though it isnt considered nearly as scummy since theres too many different movement options that can shut down airstallers.

  • @BlueSoulGamer
    @BlueSoulGamer Před měsícem +3

    AO PvP is so one sided 9 times out of 10 unless you are at the very top of your game and have the best builds and experience to help fight back. That high skill ceiling coupled with the expectation of always having the best gear and abilities possible makes the whole idea of PvP in this game more frustrating than fun.
    Because of this fact, many players don’t realize how easy PvP is because the few times they try it’s an absolute landslide in the other player’s favor. They just convince themselves they aren’t good enough and never try again.

    • @stereotypic_asian
      @stereotypic_asian  Před měsícem +2

      While I dont agree with needing the best builds to do well with PVP. I completely agree with the one sidedness and soul crushing feeling of never being able to compete with pvp. That was one of the reasons that made me start this series actually. The community for the game can be extremely toxic (both pve'rs and pvp'rs) and I hope by making this series, the gap in between them will lessen and somewhat ease toxicity.
      Having a constant cycle of hatred for a different type of player as well as constant shame and doubt in your own skill is probably one of the main reasons why AO was never able to fully flourish and reach a wider audience.

As it is still very possible to find charts and plan builds without them, they just make it more convenient and easier. But i 100% agree with the wiki part. Having to decide your class at the very start of the game and only receiving info about what youll awaken to at around 8-10 hours into the game right before you awaken is atrocious. And the only band aid fix is one free stat reset. Really poorly thought out.

When people go for a build where they have to put points into more stats, like conjurers who have to put points into sword and magic, they don't do lower damage with a sword and instead a warrior does more damage since he has more points in the sword?

    • @stereotypic_asian

      Class stat points do NOT affect the damage of a weapon. Player level will but not stat points. Stat points are ONLY to unlock different moves or options on moves. A 50 wep savant with 50 power on a old sword will do the same exact damage as an 150 wep conjurer with no imbue and 50 power.
