What's the best fighter build for abyss
 

I've got a cleric and every time I go into abyss to try and lvl up I get killed by some random fighter. Well, I started up a fighter and I was wondering what the best build would be for him. I like to go into the abyss for those lvls that don't have quest and I just wanted to know what build is the best for pvp. Tired of getting killed lol I'de like to get some revenge.

well umm i would recommend pure STR or 25SPR rest STR

The SPR is a nice boost for your sp and magic def. plus it gives you extra crit.
i currently have 15 spr rest str and am lvl 44 and im ok in pvp...if im against someone that doesnt use CS items...

Ya im a 25spr/full str build if you wanna lv fast either two are the way to go
if you dont really care about crit. then i suggest full str

Noone's mentioned that you have to use Axe yet =)


Axe for PvP is a must. Use an Aim scroll if you're missing.

Build matters a little but gears, SC items, and skill empowerments are more important.

But my recommendation: Pure STR or 25 SPR/rest STR build, high-end armors, enhanced axe, use aim, vit, and def scrolls. Once you stun and close in for the kill, it's all over unless you happen to have a non-enhanced axe and kill like a granny.

Id go 25 Spr rest str. I used to be full str wasnt so good cause i could still be easily killed. Plus crit higher means better damage so id go with what everyone is recomending.

I have 25 spr rest str and str/end gears. I am pretty good at pvp. At the 79 cap raise I was one of the "strongest" fighters on the teva server. I may still be, I just play my archer more. Str gear is important, it adds a lot. Dex is not bad but after 85 it is less important.

I've bragged about it once, I will do it again, I am a DEX/END Fighter with STR and SPR equips, And it works wonders in they abyss, THoguh not a lot can be said for the FBZ's, Where level 89 nubs will surely smack you down ith total +9 BK-age.

Free-stat END is not so good. Much better to invest into STR and have END equips. Why? Because the STR from free stat ignores the defense of your enemy. END has a similar effect to defense but it's hardly noticeable. Though, when I'm whacking someone with my BK and they're whacking me with theirs, you can definitely tell who's the pure STR build and who isn't. The extra HP doesn't mean a lot when you're up against someone who likely has an extender...

DEX is not a bad thing but yeah, its usefulness is negated after 85 unless you are a full DEX build, but even then, I'm not sure its utility outweighs its cost. Best to throw on a t3/4 aim and evade for that. But you can't directly scroll for damage, so putting points into STR is never a bad investment.

Yeah, if possible, go for STR/END armors. The END is important to avoid being too squishy, and the STR is always nice to have. Though nice/godly gears with such stats can be costly unless you already have a penny on your main.

Thanks for the info
 

Is the end+25 sp build not any good at all in pvp even if you have all +str equips and +9 axe?

I wouldn't invest in END if you want a pvp-built fighter. END is good for HP and block rate (it also gives you a negligible amount of def...), but you won't be using block rate if you're using an axe. So the only thing good about it, then, is HP, and it doesn't matter if the HP that comes from it is from armor or free stats.

On the other hand, it does matter if you have bonus points set into STR versus not having any and having just STR armor. For the same amount of points versus STR on your armor or weapon, you will do more damage. So I highly recommend going for a pure STR build or 25 SPR rest STR buld to maximize damage dealt. Then use STR/END armors to increase your damage and to add a little bit of an HP cushion.

Thanks for the info
 

I really appreciate all the information you all have given me. It has helped out a lot.

Just keep in mind that the main fighter components can all be taken care of quite easily,

END/STR in stat points
SPR/DEX/END/STR in armor, Godly or not, You get the boosts you need, Though the armor takes away some bonuses.

DEX is really only PVP necessary, Though Spirit is also only fro crits. really, Stones null the SP problem. But like i wil lcontinue to say, Why waste on SPR what you can buy for 700sc? Crit boosts ftw.

No, don't go END into free stats. I am END/STR hybrid and wish that I were pure STR for pvp now. The END gives a little bit of extra HP and overall, it's a decent build but it's much better just to slap on an extender or t3/4 scroll with a STR build in pvp.

Oh yeah, and fyi, SPR on armor does not increase your crit rate, so if you absolutely need that crit rate, you must put it in your free stat SPR instead of having SPR armor. SPR on armor is mainly for a little bit of extra mdef and SP. Some fighters even carry around mage-killing armors with high SPR and END, though it is hard to switch mid-abyss to a mage-killing set and generally not worth it unless you have the room and money to have an additional set of armor. But if you want more crit rate, I also suggest looking at weapons with completed licenses in addition to cash shop items.

Depends.

Because of the level limits on the abysses, you'll generally be able to get owned by someone who can't usefully train there. To PVP, and steal/hold a spot against other players, you want pure STR or 25 spr/ᴥ STR. To train quickly while there, (with a cleric), you'll want a more tanking-oriented build. Your choice.
