1 Hand and shield

[Thanatos]

Hi , I've never played fiesta [downloading client] and i was acknowledging the different Builds stats and guides.
Then i decided to be 1 handed and use a sword with a 2 str and 1 End build
So my questions are :
Is a sword and a shield good for 2str and 1 end ?
Will y be able to tank some how[please tell the problems i could have] , and what are the problems i would encounter with the build i use ?
Then last what is better for me , Creating scrolls or Creating potions.

Thanks for your help ^^

PS : This is my first post , who normally should be in newbie zone but i don't have any interesting things to say about me ^^

Well END gives shield block percentage, albiet a small amount, and the only way to use that is with a shield. Although you might want to go pure END instead of a hybrid build.

Here is some info about your build when you cap(level 79):

Strength: 63
Dexterity: 0
Endurance: 31
Intellegence: 0
Spirit: 0

Damage: 75
Defense: 15.5
Aim: 0%
Evasion: 0%
Magic Damage: 0
Magic Defense: 0
Critical Rate: 0%
Block Rate: 3.1%
Maximum Health: 155
Maximum Mana: 0

A pure STR build:

Strength: 94
Dexterity: 0
Endurance: 0
Intellegence: 0
Spirit: 0

Damage: 112
Defense: 0
Aim: 0%
Evasion: 0%
Magic Damage: 0
Magic Defense: 0
Critical Rate: 0%
Block Rate: 0%
Maximum Health: 0
Maximum Mana: 0

A pure END build:

Strength: 0
Dexterity: 0
Endurance: 94
Intellegence: 0
Spirit: 0

Damage: 0
Defense: 47
Aim: 0%
Evasion: 0%
Magic Damage: 0
Magic Defense: 0
Critical Rate: 0%
Block Rate: 7.2%
Maximum Health: 470
Maximum Mana: 0

And finally a 2:1 END STR, your build reversed:

Strength: 31
Dexterity: 0
Endurance: 63
Intellegence: 0
Spirit: 0

Damage: 37
Defense: 31.5
Aim: 0%
Evasion: 0%
Magic Damage: 0
Magic Defense: 0
Critical Rate: 0%
Block Rate: 5.65%
Maximum Health: 315
Maximum Mana: 0

Then i decided to be 1 handed and use a sword with a 2 str and 1 End build
So my questions are :
Is a sword and a shield good for 2str and 1 end ?

I guess. It might be better though to go 2 End : 1 Str first until you've added 50 points to End so you hit the benefit cap. Then put rest in Str.

Will y be able to tank some how[please tell the problems i could have] , and what are the problems i would encounter with the build i use ?

You'll kill slow. Slow as hell if you dedicate yourself only to 1-hand. Always carry both your 1-hand and shield combo and an axe, for when you need to alternate between taking and dealing damage. Shoudn't have any problems tanking really.

Then last what is better for me , Creating scrolls or Creating potions.

More practical benefit/ profit potential from scrolls I guess. Pots drop like mad in the Abyss. Though you could still sellT2+ HP and SP stones. Scrolls though are the hot money-maker and the extra buffing is always useful.

[Thanatos]

Ok thanks , but if i use an axe , wouldn't my build not be convinient to use it with ?
T2 ? what is that ?

[Ivramire]

T2 = Tier 2 pots, heal more than Tier 1 but higer lvl requirement.


Axe should be had no matter your build, End/Str build is decent enough with it.

[ThievingSix]

Although you won't be able to use the END fully without a shield.

[Thanatos]

So ok , 2 End 1 Str an Axe for grinding and 1 handed sword and a shield when tanking a boss ?
But i think Tanking is only useful when bossing ? or in this game there is another use for it

[Ivramire]

Yup.


Shield also for partys and KQs if you need to tank.


Axe through everything else.


Axe is also better PvP-wise.


And you might have mispelled something in your sig.

[Thanatos]

Ok so if i want to be pure attacking and fast grinding i should go full str ?
