Hardest Builds To Master In Throne And Liberty

Key Takeaways

• The Seeker build provides great support but lacks damage output and survivability.
• Ravager is a high-damage melee build that requires quick reflexes and comes online late.
• The Scorpion build is a top DPS choice with extreme glassiness, high mobility, and fast skill rotations.

Throne and Liberty features seven different weapons to create builds with. Some of these can be easy to master from the get-go. However, a few combinations make for some of the most complex and demanding builds in the game.

Weapons that see a higher rate of occurrence in harder builds appear to be the Dagger, Longbow, and the Staff. New players should run easier builds for the first time before changing things up for one of the builds listed here.

1 Scout

Longbow + Crossbow

• Lacks Escape Options
• Glassy

The Scout build makes use of both the Longbow and the Crossbow. This results in a build that is great at dealing out short bursts of high damage, but it comes with two fatal flaws. The first is that it suffers in both mobility and having escape options.

If things go south or players find themselves in a bad position, things will be over fast. The second issue is just how glassy the build is, with players having little to no wiggle room for error. Players that run this build will need to have a deep understanding of how to deal with whatever bad situations may befall it.

2 Ranger

Longbow + Greatsword

• Demanding playstyle switching
• Glassy

The Ranger suffers from the same issues as the Scout, but not to the same extent. While this build can also be pretty glassy, the introduction of the Greatsword allows it to take more of a beating.

It also lets players make a last-ditch effort to destroy whatever tries to close the gap on them. Players are able to deal great damage at any range, but will only be able to charge into combat, not get out of it. It is best to use crowd control, play defensively when in melee, and deal out short bursts of damage at range to keep moving.

3 Spellblade

Dagger + Staff

• Not easy to learn, let alone master
• Resource Management Skills

Some builds are easy to play and hard to master. This is not the case for the Spellblade, which is hard to play and even harder to master. Players may struggle just to try to learn how to play the build, and this can be very demotivating. It does offer a lot of mobility and damage output that can make it shine as a Dagger build choice.

Players will need to manage their resources, as this is a build that will have players burning through their mana to attack and reposition constantly, and without a Longbow, will not have much self-sustainability to pull it off when played recklessly.

4 Seeker

Wand & Tome + Longbow

• Bad damage output
• Low survivability

One of the best support options in the entire game is the Seeker. This is due to it using the two best weapons for players looking to play a healer. To make it the best Support option, it had to take a severe hit to damage output.

Players will need to play to match whatever their allies are doing, which means needing a very flexible and adaptive mindset. The build also has abysmal defense and is easy to take out. Players who want a support that is easy to run and tanky would be much better off with a Crusader.

5 Liberator

Longbow + Staff

Another build that makes use of the Longbow is the Liberator, this time paired with Staff. Again, players using a Longbow will be able to deal out high amounts of damage in a short amount of time. However, this build is very stationary, meaning it will just be standing there, wide open to attacks that it has little to no way of defending against.

Players will need strong allies that can protect it, especially since this build is just as glassy as earlier Longbow builds. Players will need to know where to go and what to do with any downtime or hesitation costing them damage output. This is a solid build to go with when it comes to large-scale PvP matches such as Castle Siege.

6 Ravager

Dagger + Greatsword

• Quick Reflexes
• Comes online late

Ravagers may very well be the highest damage-dealing melee builds in the game. They can dive into combat to deal massive amounts of burst damage and crowd control but also have the option to escape the moment their burst damage window closes.

This build requires players to know when to engage, and when to disengage and does not give a lot of time to make decisions. Players will need to train themselves to react at a moment’s notice to use a Ravager effectively. Players will also not have effective use of this build until most of their gear is purple, and this can make leveling this build a rather daunting ordeal.

7 Scorpion

Crossbow + Dagger

• Extremely Glassy
• Low cooldowns mean a lot of skills per rotation

The Scorpion is one of the best DPS builds in Throne and Liberty. This build will see players dealing out insane damage numbers, being highly mobile, and always having the means to escape against enemies. Players will be dipping and diving between ranged and melee combat while avoiding any damage.

This massive amount of mobility can make it a very survivable class despite being extremely glassy. Players will also have to learn to activate skills multiple times in a single rotation thanks to this build’s low cooldown times, and failure to learn these complex rotations and when to alternate from escaping can tank damage output.
