TheOtherTed Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 ...Archery/Tactical Arrow, or Archery/Ninja Training?
MoisesG Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 I think both are good combos. What is your playstyle? If you like to play at range, then go Archery/Tactical. If you like to blap, then go Archery/Ninja Training. My advice is make both and have fun playing. 🙂 1
CrudeVileTerror Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 You may want to check the Beta first, since there are some changes in the pipeline for both those Sets.
TheOtherTed Posted November 10, 2020 Author Posted November 10, 2020 I like ranged and blapping both just fine. Maybe a pros/cons list will help. I'm re-creating my TA/Archery defender as a blaster, so I'll start with that first. TA/Archery def Pros: I know the set well Those sweet, sweet Leadership bonuses Smooth rotations Between TA and Leadership, high potential to be the secret tactician on teams Cons: I've hit the soloability wall - I like teaming, but soloability is a strong requirement Arrows. Always with the arrows. Archery/TA blaster Pros: Something new - I've made a couple of false starts, but the set is still largely new to me Soloability Smooth rotations Battlefield control/management potential similar to TA def Cons: Arrows. Always with the arrows. Mobility. Maybe this is a "me" thing, but on my false start playthroughs, I always feel like a turret Sorely missing those sweet, sweet Leadership bonuses Archery/Ninja Training blaster Pros: Soloability Neat little toys that may fit the concept better (a near-future super-soldier with high-tech cybernetics) Vanguard katana complements the Vanguard bow nicely - will admit this is the major reason I'm considering NT Cons: Still missing those sweet Leadership bonuses Rotations not so smooth. Martial Training and many other blapping sets have a nice flow to them; Ninja Training feels, well, in a word, choppy The whole Leadership bonus thing again So - anything to add to the pile? Anything to remove? Other things to consider?
Shred Monkey Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 If you want to stay at range, tactical arrow... if you want to go into melee, ninja (or martial). All are viable options. That said, I think one of the big benefits of Archery is that you have no reason to go into melee since there are PBAoEs like other many other primaries have.
