The hybrid hero. In my years of playing, it's always been looked down upon since there are no benefits to being a hybrid hero unlike hybrid dks. Maybe except for being 'unique'. however i propose a hybrid hero build anyway but the heroes ive seen still say it's not a very good build.
In the fighter stages, you have maxed sword mastery, FA, pg, booster, rage. The standard crusader build looks like
70-100: max combo(30), sword panic(30) and coma(30).
100-120: max shout(30) and relax(20).
[indent]But what i propose is:
the fighter build stays standard (maxed sword mastery, FA, pg, booster, rage)
but the crusader builds looks like
70-100: max combo(30), sword panic(30) and coma(30).
100-120: max axe mastery(20), max axe booster(20)[/indent]
This build sets up a 'standard' build for sword fighter and crusader by 100 but instead by 120, the hero has both sword and axe mastery and booster. through the levels 30-100, you're still the same as any sword crusader; have mastery, booster, FA, combo, etc.
Relax just saves mp. A little mp saved isnt so bad but it's the same argument for magicians: drop mp eater or not. some mesos saved is some mesos earned but it seems irrelevant to save 30 mp (60 mesos) every 10 seconds you're taking 3k+ damage training in leafre.
Aside from stunning goby houses and questing, I rarely see crusaders use shout. the popular training places such as himes, and wolf spiders, shout actually slows down training.
the less-to-no usage of relax and shout lead me to propose the build of dropping both those skills and build a (pointless) hybrid hero. now, im not trying to encourage people to use this build nor am i trying to find alternative builds such as dropping rage or FA. im just curious to why this particular build is considered bad.
