Gear Advice please

twilightwarrick · April 2019

HI so maybe I'm not really sure what I'm doing despite being over cp300 , playing a stam nightblade, running five pieces hundings rage and five spriggins is that not a good mixed combo
was going for the penetration and weapon damage, however I see a lot of ,would you say pro players, on their lets plays , recommending something like 5 med 3 heavy 2 light, could I have some advice please, I do feel a bit light on health and regen, however I m getting 4k weapon damage and have 50% crit chance,
Another quick question how long can you buy back goods from a vender, sold some items week ago I wish I hadn't, thanks

I think you mean 5M 1H 1L, and that is for the undaunted passive (which is a bit up in the air if you need/want it for stam).

You don't want to just say "X streamer is using this set up, so I shall do the exact same thing!" You need your build to work for you. If you want a starting point, Alcast is a decent place to look, but you always want to modify the build to suit your playstyle. You will Never pull the same dps as these streamers do by just copying their builds.

Typically the advised stamina gear is Relequeens and Berserking, but that may not be possible if you don't run trials. You also don't mention a monster helmet, which you should be using.

Honestly its difficult to know what your issue is without knowing your full build. Mundus stone, Food, Rotation, and CP distribution all play key roles in dps output.

On the (unrelated) note of buy backs, its based entirely on # of items sold. If you've sold too many items since the ones you want back, they're probably gone.

Edit: On the note of health, the recommended is 16k minimum, but you may want more if you feel you need it. Personally I usually shoot for 17k. Health regen is completely irrelevant in PvE.

Hundings and spriggan is good enough for normal trials and your cp is good enough too.

Do you have all the passive for your nb skill line. Also you should have all skill line in dw, bow, medium armor, fighters guild, undaunted and assault.

Google a good cp points allocation from alcast, he's got a great recommendation.

Also get a monster set velidreth or selene is good for stam nb.

That gear is most definitely gone on the vendor.

Hunding's and Spriggan's is fine. The difference between CP 300 and 600, is quite noticeable. Let alone your allocation.

We don't know traits, enchants, mundus stone, food, regen, blue/purple/gold quality. The list goes on.

Aim for 17k-18k health, and as much in to Stamina.

Rather than worrying about penetration (which is important) for a beginner set stick with Spriggan's or Night Mother's Gaze.

If i were to suggest, honestly - just follow either the Alcast or Dottzgaming Stam NB builds. If you follow those to the absolute tee, you can then work backwards from there as to why you might not be happy with your damage output.

Otherwise, this is all speculation.
