| Author | Thief set compared to Full art lvl 10 |
|---|
Hi,
A question to the more experienced players:
I'm playing a lvl 10 barbarian. What would more powerful to me? A thief set or a lvl 10 full art set without milthril arts?
I just want to know in which cases a thief set pays out...
I've never seen a high level character wearing a thief set in group battles, so here are shop arts obviously more powerful.
What about ambushes, hunts and merc quests? |
For group and duel i would say level 10 arts are better.
But for ambushes, hunts and merc i would say thief. It makes your units faster 10% more powerful and gives resistances.
Check chrisl battle he uses theif set for most things. |
chrisl is a DE, so the thief set works very well. i think the thief set is less useful to barbarians and other factions.
Since I'm not level 10, and I haven't fully tested the shop arts vs thief set, I can't truly say, but that's my guess.
I know that thief set works very well for DE in ambushes, but I'm going to test out shop arts for knight combats. |
yea that thief set...makes shrews +9 speed ^^
For Group battles as others said, wearing thief set = suicide.
For NPC battles it is awesome.
But I hope you do wear at least thief cloak in group battles (or long bow), and maybe even the thief dagger--don't forget the thief amulet :)
Cheers,

Thief cloak and thief amulet is useful in every battle.
but thief sets got a low def and will die out soon in the group battles.
thief arts is very nice for ambush and anti-ambush, especially for elf and de, but I don't think they are so useful for other fractions. |
| Yeahh I agree with Master TI .. I think Level 10 arts are better ONLY in PvP .. but for Hunting, MGs and TGI, Thieves are the best .. I am curious if they are compare with FULL GH set .. ?? ANy ideas ?? I think GH is better .. in everything .. :) |

I'm not sure about the GH set. Hunting definitely is better, but I doubt it's better in anything else. By the way the GH set bonus against neutrals only work in hunts. |
| Yeahh hunts and mercenaries as long as I know .. ^^ but at PvP .. I never try them .. ^^ |
Set_sveta (necro) used enchanted Thief set in PvP pretty efficiently.
Overall, it's a matter of preference I think :) |
As the person referred to above, I thought I should give my opinion as well :)
I love the thief set, especially with a couple of enchanted weapons. The thief set also gives +29% initiative and increases the speed of all troops by 1, it provides the following stats with all primary points except one put into attack:
[Attack] +21
[Defence] +9
[Spell Power] 0
[Knowledge] +2
[Luck] +1
[Morale] +2
[Initiative] +29%
AP: 52
Hence the idea is to strike fast before the opponent gets a chance to move and kill the most dangerous troops before they get a shot. This works very well for merc quests, ambushes and hunts. For PvP I havent really tested it out much but the one 3vs3 I did participate in with the thief set it was quite deadly in the beginning especially with the shrews with speed 9.
The thief amulet is great when combined with a full arts set instead of the luck amulet as it gives you +1 morale and +3% initiative as well. |
Thanks for your opinions so far!
But don't you think a warriors pendant is a bit better for barbs then a thief amulet? |
I would still use Thief amulet :)
But you can alternate. I like having +1 luck whenever possible, just for the "thrill" factor. But I personaly preferred Morale over Luck as a 'living' being army hehe.
Cheers,
LS |
