Thread: Video: Gambler PvMP

So i don't care of music , i would appreciate, if you could post some normal video? Where i can see your rotation and where i will not get headache
Please !

I made extra dagger for gamble And yesterday i had some nice fights, its really fun, although the rotation is very different from QK. And what i am really missing is provoke-daze after improved faint attack.
I know i had bad timing, overwriting each gamble with other to soon and etc, but i will keep practicing

By popular demand I made another video with the same fights (minus the long WL one) at normal speed because some told me it was too fast and couldn't see my rotation or what was going on (and they were right).

Thx Pale, very nice

need new video of you vs spiders and wargs.

GL out there.

This wont be a problem once I get pvmp armor

Palesnik:

for you, sir, as master gambler, i have question: what armor set will you collect? or some 3+3? and why?
Thanks...

I will probably go with 5 pieces of the gambler set and the draigoch helm (to have 122agi 67vit instead of 67agi 101 vit without losing to much finesse) or 6 pieces of gambler if 1 audacity realy worths it.

So you think, silence on gambler strike will be useful if so, fights with WLs and Defilers will be fun

Yes folks, gambler is a viable traitline

Hmmm

1. Did you ever 1 vs 1 Xkillah?

2. Didn't Xkira beat you last month?

3. Post U6 - wondering if that's changed things

4. Nice to see someone not in QK for a change but nobody runs mischief in the moors but me

As for the WL well it doesn't usualy take me that much time to kill one. Took a while because he slow-kited me. If he drags me into the NPCs I just TaG and problem is solved.

Gambler gives more survivability than QK with the debuff gamble and by stoping the enemy more often so you take less damage. It's just a different approach and I dont's see this as a flaw, especialy when you are facing more than 1 enemy. Kills are slower on ranked/p2w creeps only, rest dies pretty fast. Sometimes slightly slower fights are just more fun to me, but I understand how you can see this as a flaw.

Sorry for double post - sick today, forgot I'd already responded to it.

ALOT of creeps are using their brands + the store in combat brands which even dusty in the eyes won't work on, so how has this affected you since the release? Especially with spiders and wargs?

I bought some coffee but to be honest, I tend to forget to use it in the "panic" of non-arranged 1 vs 1s (my server has imbalance of creeps to freeps and getting zerged happens daily if not hourly, so I'm always in a rush to kill fast and move on)

Could you post what traits you use?

d'oh thanks!

I tend to follow the same procedure for all creeps: (from stealth) LiE>Reveal Weakness>Cunning Attack>Counter Defence>Startling Twist>AIM>Gamblers Strike>Crit Chain>Flashing Blades.

I run gambler in the moors and I am going with 3 unseen and 3 pandemonium.

The Knives out bleed (panmdemonium) is VERY NICE vs wargs

I also like the stealth lvl and off hand damage from unseen (I also use 5 unseen in PvE for DPS fights)

The 3 set bonus on the chance set looks nice but most of the times it only stacks 1-2 times. I have to use touch and go to leep it at 3 stacks. I have also heard that the 5 set chance bonus silence does NOT prevent defilers from healing (only using some attack skills?) I have no idea if it is true or not, but I would hate to grind out 5 pieces of the armor set IF this is true.

Seems like the 3 set pandemonium is good for servers with a high warg population. I just can't decide whether the 3 unseen or 3 chance set is best...

How much is DoT from Knives Out? And how much it stacks?

Nice one pale, it's cool to see one of few gamblers around atm, QK does more damage aye, still MM trait-line is realy good aswell, with the trick spams and riddle duration, it's very effective!

havent seen you around at all the last few weeks?

u6 make you rage quit also?
