[KOTBS] Newbie questions.

Post#1 » Sun Apr 23, 2023 4:39 pm

Hello i have few questions about KOTBS:

1. What should i run for low levels RvR/Scenario: SnB or 2h?
2. What sets should i focus on? because there are 2, one with strenght and one toughnes.
3. Was looking some KOTBS guide topics but cant find any link to talent calculator. Some build for low level to follow should be helpful.
4. What to priority in renown training?
5. I know spell rotation is dependend on situation but whats basic rotation or what skills are worth to look for.

Thanks in advance.

1) I suggest SnB
2) Take as much toughness as you can
3) https://builder.returnofreckoning.com/c ... 57,8056&t=
That one will do for t3 scs
4) before 30 grab stats (toughness and wounds) for maximum bolster. after 30 take as much parry and block as you can
5) Permanent uptime on shield rush and thats it. Slow targets, stun healerd, punt tanks, live your best live and dont forget to stick to a competent dps.

1. If recomend 2h mid tier sc. KOTBS is rly tough in that bracket and its dmg doesnt fall behind drastically like in t4.

2. I'd go with PVE sets all way long to save crests for late game sets. So 28 is PVE t3 PQ set called Mayhem: https://wiki.returnofreckoning.com/Knig ... Mayhem_Set

3. 29 lvl: https://builder.returnofreckoning.com/c ... 0,8055,503

Get focus mending and slice thru, than AP. run resistance/ heal / ap auras for love from people :P

4. Parry, ctbc, parry, parry, ctbc MORE PARRY. You have lowest avoidances of all tanks in game. You wanna get as much parry as possible to mitigate dmg from guard nad dont insta drop from mdps. In the end you will still have lowest parry possible [kotbs doest sin with high ini either...].

5. Crippling, arc swing [later on], shining blade, punt tanks [get banish darkness tactic later on!], smashing counter [later on] on heal/dps and just follow your dps and assist with precision strike. Rest is situational like you said.
SM 82 / IB 82 / KOTBS 82 / WL 82 / WP 72 / SW 75
CH 77 / BG 6X / BO 6X / WE 6X / MAG 6X ...and others.

Repel darkness, kick away tanks from dps / healers they guarding. I am sure you are experiencing the same while being tank ;)

In mid tier you can go str, or go more tanky - all depends on your personal preferations and game style, at that lvl your dmg is not that much behind others... gap is huge in T4 - there go wounds/toughness 2h utility / support tank.
Your dmg can never match other tanks there... So no point trying.

p.s. Only thing worth taking for crests at this point is sc weapon.
