Spirit Turtle Resistance: Whenever you are dmg by a critical hit you regen HP per sec (very good good in pvp since most people goes for crit type ) and add Turtle status on enemy nearby

Guarding Powerlvl 10: Increase Attack by 1762. Physical dmg on 8 meters and IF the enemy has the status of Turtle Resistance, Add an additional damage of 5000 ! (P.S i tried it and it gives you Double Damage! every Guarding power you use if it has the status of Turtle Resistance on it)

Spirit Hare Hurl lvl6: Increase attack by 1801 Physical Skill and gets the Effect spirit hare blessings which will give you Damage Reduction by 20% for 4 Sec (P.S you can spam this but it doesnt stack)
Cooldown = 2.5 sec

Forest Divine lvl5: Increase Defense,HitRate,ParryRate and Dodge Rate by 10% and have a status that will make you have Stun Immunity for 20sec (Makes me think of Master/Wanderer without stun LOL)

Doesn't guarding power's 2nd dmg deal only around 500dmg in PvP?

idk i have lvl 45 FG and i do great dmg with guarding power in pvp with same lvls of me. It was all my plan for it.

Guard Blast is better. :<

~60% more damage [you can see the extra damage because it double hits] with the Refined: skill. All those extra points in that Guardian skill for ~270 more damage. There are better ways to use it. Guard Blast gives a %, so in my opinion, it is better.

Kimi, once you reach level 60 and have 12k+ attack [though, +15 means over 20k], you'll notice that that extra 5,000 damage doesn't make much of a difference.

From the tests I've done, it seems like the 2nd damage from Guarding Power is regarded as a DoT that only lasts for 1 tick. The damage has nothing to do with your atk power or the enemy's defense, and the damage is reduced by 90% in PvP. In the long run, Guard Blast would deal a lot more damage to a target than Guarding Power

kimsiyan

ahh okay thanks for the infos

Anyone know what is the bonus damage you get from Guard Blast Mastery?

also, is Maple Flavor really useful? Wouldn't the points be better spent on the HP Passive?

kimsiyan

i think maple favor is useful. i fought someone with lvl 1 maple favor and it really does have higher chance

I'm a level 60 Forest Guard. I've used Guardian Field and I dont like it at all. I very much prefer Guard Blast. Guard blast seems faster to me and seems like it does more damage. Maybe it's just me but I didn't notice much difference with Guardian Field.

Also Maple Flavor is kinda useless for PVP I think. PVE build it would be good but that little amount of healing is useless on someone with crazy dps

IamNick

Yeah, Maple Flavour is more like an extra slot for health potions.

I guess the info is not updated into ST wiki yet. Though it has been around since last year, the damage you deal in PvP is actually 1/10 of your original damage. Those who deal OHKO is probably someone who can get somewhere around 100k outside PvP. Used to have a friend that dealing ~500k before the dmg was nerfed to 300k.. Those kind of people will bypass your defenses, unless you get more ele resist and crit/mcrit resist.

You can calculate for the rest it goes.

The reason maple isn't that good in PvP is mainly because the magic is always hit. You get it triggered in occurrence of between magic attack and normal attack, when normal attack hits you and triggered it. Behold the power of global CD ;D

I like it when you said extra slot for health potions. It sounds like free pot ;D

Oh btw, seems like you have spend 11 points in 2nd class skill.
