WilnerGW.3275 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Hi. Tittle says all. What are the best 1v1 builds for side node dominance in the game right now? Besides the obvious answers SpellBreaker and Mirage, is there any viable duelist to play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kako.1930 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Soulbeasts and holosmiths are ok for dueling. They're not on the same level as mirages though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiritsuga emeya has some videos on YouTube of his/her build and gameplay that are pretty cool. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive tried it and its like more an assasin of high priority targets in team fights. I might try the boonbeast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's close to what I've seen working well but I think they use more survival skills. Metabattle is kind of outdated though, so that's the closest I could find on there. ?

StabbersTheThird.6053 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I play Sic'em SB Ranger. It kind of duels. You just have to remember which skills do what. However, it sounds like your priority is lasting, not killing a target. In that case I would highly suggest Holosmith or Spellbreaker because they spend of lot of time alive.

Lasting or killing, it doest matter. As long you win the 1v1, its ok! haha Playsing this SB sick'em Build, can you duel some good mirages/SpellBreaker?

breno.5423 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Mostly builds works well at 1v1. Its easier to tell you the worst ones for duel, which are the ones with poor mobility/escape, and those that cant hold capture (stay a long time into stealth for example).

Duel mirages? No. I just murder them. Spellbreakers are duels. All of your skills matter against spellbreaker. You gotta use zephyr to break the stun when they go hundred blades, and then you gotta use greatsword 4 to block one of the 3 hammer stuns and then immediately swap to longbow and use longbow 4 OR use greatsword 3 at just the right time.

kipthelip.5802 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Mirage and Spell Breaker. I mean why would you play anything else if you wanted to win duels you'll lose to every one of them thats your skill level and quite a few a little below your skill level because the class will carry. So if you want to win duels you answered your own question already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falan.1839 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Mirage is an amazing 1v1er (especially with the Chaos/Staff/Infinite Horizon build that is popping up everywhere) that also has a lot of mobility and the unique advantage of portals that can be used for your team in myriads of ways. Spellbreaker was hit a bit by the RR nerf, yet is still a strong duelist with a good mix of dps and sustain and able to survive 1v2s for a good while. Also has the high dps variant without Defense Traitline and with Sword available for higher pressure (aka Tramawarr). Holosmith is still very strong in 1v1s, very good CC application, mix of melee and range attacks, and able to resustain itself quickly, a bit fragile vs very high burst or 1v2. Protection variant and Eli variant are both viable, although Spectrum Shield is not recommended anymore after the nerfs. The boonbeast come closest to the classic bruisers of the HoT meta, very tanky with decent pressure and some annoying mechanics to bully people of node (muddy terrain). Weaver is a capable bruiser, very sustainy, a bit low on dmg and somewhat vulnerable to +1s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sephiroth.4217 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 play a 1 shot build and end the 1v1 before it's even begun... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
