BROKEN BUILD - The BRUTE | New World EXPANSION S3

I have cooked up one of the most broken builds I have ever seen. With this build you will be a menace in a 1v1 and will easily win against the wast majority of builds in the game.
This build offers great sustain, chase and escape, high damage in both ranged and melee distance. Good CC. Self cleansing. Heavy dots and high burst damage as well as disease for antiheal.
If you wonder what kind of armor I run for this build then stay tuned for an updated guide after the expansion hits live. I was running all of these tests in random gear with terrible perks and you can see how powerful it is. I will get back to you with what the BiS setup will look like for this build.
With the expansion coming up we are going to see a lot of fun new builds but this is definitely one of the strongest I have seen so far. I tested a lot of different builds with the new artifacts and none even came close to the power and versatility of this one.

I am going to release an updated build where I go over the attributed and armor perks soon. Currently working on putting it all together! I recommend stacking shirking heals and health, then get the "ankh" amulet from PvP track for increased heals from the shirking heals.

@jiggyspice6809 9 ай бұрын

Yeah it depends on your playstyle. For me I would never use the wall personally since dodging is disabled when u have that shield equippped. So you will never be able to kill anyone ever, they can just dodge you forever and you can't chase them at all. It might be good for tanking on points in OPR or something but for the most part you will just be a big chunky target dummy that nobody wants to fight. But anyone can literally just walk past you and not care about you at all when u have that shield equipped. Kinda like the brute in OPR, nobody really cares about it, just dodge its attacks and ignore it. So for me I want to kill people, not just survive. That's why I would just never run the wall. It's more of a PvE tank shield in my opinion. Maybe its good in wars though, I'm not sure.

@piratalafayete 9 ай бұрын

@@jiggyspice6809 that's a fair point. I guess the wall works in duels because your enemy have to eventually deal with you and can't really escape. But yeah, for point tanks full con and pve it could be interesting

hey bro, id like to know if you think the flail could be paired with a strength melee weapon, like the hammer, to make a 'bruiser' type build that could be useful in a dive group, to buff party, debuff enemy players, and also do decent damage? id like flail to be main and i was thinking hammer for stuns and cc as secondary

@jiggyspice6809 9 ай бұрын

Maybe, I felt that overall the flail is kinda weak as a main weapon. The lights and heavys have short range and kind of bad tracking, I didn't feel like it was super viable as your main dps weapon, but perhaps in a dive group that's totally different. Most of my testing was based on solo play. The flail is super good in war though, and I think it will have a position in dive groups for sure. It can remove CC's for teammates, has insane buffs and debuffs. Yeah flail will be making a huge difference in the war metas

@bellgrand 9 ай бұрын

1. Pestilence is tied for the strongest artifact along with the Abyss. People are sleeping on how ridiculous it is. 2. This build is only possible because the Shield is counted as an armor artifact for some reason. I actually think this is a mistake, since shields use Weapon Matrix and count as weapons in every other instance. (And yeah, you mention this. I just think it must be fixed. Same for that cleanse bug.) 3. Still, FL/BB might be really strong even without Michael.

@jiggyspice6809 9 ай бұрын

Totally agree with you! The main reason why I think shields no longer will count as weapons is because on PTR no shields have any attributes anymore and instead the swords have full attributes instead of half. So I think it is intended.

@bellgrand 9 ай бұрын

@@jiggyspice6809 I feel that the way that they have balanced the Shields points to them being weapons. I mean, the power level of some of these perks are wild and gameplay defining. Most armor perks just double up on an existing armor perk. It will be even more clear when the artifact round shield comes out. This is beside the fact that they use Weapon Matrix, are sorted into the weapon section of your inventory, and use weapon labels. Lol.

Playing flail as an int build could work, you mostly use flail as a secondary weapon for its utility from the abilities and then another weapon as your main damage weapon. Not sure what the best combo would be. Sounds interesting though, I might try it eventually.

I haven't figured out the best perk combination yet. You will run 5x medium pieces with a kite shield to stay as medium equip load though. Then 5x Health perk and 5x shirking heal I think will be the best. As for the third perks I am still undecided, maybe refreshing. you want to get exhaustive net shot perk on one of the armor pieces though since that one is really strong. I will make an updated guide after the expansion hits where i include full attribute spread, the full gear loadout and which heartrune is best.

So I chose to not include gear in this guide since I am still experimenting with the actual gear loadout. I would say at least the "health" perk is essential on every armor piece, it's going to result in even higher self healing from the michael shield as well. As for the gear I used in this video, it was all random strength gear. Not a single piece has good perks on it. I am running 5/5 medium pieces though, that way you can stay medium with a kite shield. I will make an updated version after the expansion launches which will include gear, gems and jewelry as well as insights into which heartrune compliments this build the best, of which there are a few different options.

I agree, tank builds aren't really fun. I definitely would not classify this as a tank build though. You can only take 2 heavy hits before getting stamina broken. The best way to counter true tank builds is to run dot heavy builds that can still apply damage through shields or while they block. Turtle builds are definitely very boring and I totally agree with you on that, but like it or hate it. S3 will be a shield meta without question. though I think we will see more kite shields than tower shields.
