Title: Headgear card for sniper
Post by: yukiko miyamoto on August 22, 2011, 08:30:10 pm

What would be a recommended headgear card for a sniper? Would Bloody knight be good? Thank you for your input.

BK would be horrible for sniper. It actually depends what you want to do on your sniper. DPS? Spam skills? What is it?

^ This.

Also are you looking at iRO cards or at our cards? Some cards have been changed.

What type of headgear are you looking at too for sniper?

I wanted to put it in an awe so that it would increase damage. I never use any offensive skills. Would there be another helpful card other than gryphon?

Kiel card (-25% after-cast delay) for sharpshoot spammers

Stormy Knight card (+20 flee) for flee whores

AWE would do jack shit to you, it adds STR, your damage depends on DEX xD. . .

MVP carding.

Gryphon - Universal card for any Sniper, most Snipers go this way, and usually it's my personal favorite. Adds CRIT wich is fundamental for a SQI'd Sniper.
Kiel - Specifically used for Sharpshoot spam [SQI'd], since its the only offensive Sniper skill that got a considerable cooldown. You require 2 Kiels to have an effective spam though.
SK - Not so used, it's specifically made for flee Snipers, useful in PVM maybe if the character is used properly (not letting yourself get mobbed).

BK *could* work but it doesn't really adds that much damage to be very noticeable.


As for any card that isn't MVP, there aren't much options for damage, since most of them are defensive.

most noticeable is vanberk but again that truely only shines in non sqi woe.

Eh, I forgot about Vanberk, I like that card though. But for DPS Snipers XD.

Never tried Vanberk because I heard the proc rate isn't too good.  It could be ok though, but Gryphon you can't go wrong with for a DPS Sniper build imo.

Gryph is just as good.

Thank you for all your responses. I guess gryphon would be my choice.
