The full con build

The full con-build is something I tried out 2-3 weeks ago.

What is 100 % con-build?

Pretty much what you think it is. You put all your points into con. Your damage comes from Lizard tail-pots, reflecting enemy damage until he/she kills himself/herself. Usage of def or evasion pots are optional.

Why 100% con?

There is no getting around it, the servers are far from perfect. Per usual i play with a lag ~500 ms and especially early before I got better equipment i often died before I had time to do anything big. That's when I thought of going full con.

Pro:

Easy to play.

Good against high DPS users.

Good against Gobilns and Samurais.

Con:

Very limited playstile.

Very low dmg output.

Reflected damage is reduced first from your def-% and then your enemies def-% making your output lower than the enemies.

As Darwinnair (Gonorhea in game) stated in comments:

"A HUGE boost to full con that makes it viable for higher levels : devil egg artifact --> deals 10% of your health to the enemy. i am not 100% sure if dmg potion works on the buff, and if defense applies on it.  dealing 3000dmg / second is really a good burst

note that def and eva potions will reduce the effectiveness of lizard. i would suggest lizard + 1x str/as + 1x poison + 1x hw + massive largest heal pots

strategy : start with lizard and heal. When you reach your 2nd last heal pot, or when enemy health is low, activate devil egg and all the other potions, and keep your finger on your last heal pot."

The total damage output is still lacking, and if the enemy has a scarab and lizard tail, your use of devils egg kills yourself. The opponent has to adapt quickly to your build in order not to burst himself though.

Final words

This build works early levels pvp against glass cannons, but if the enemy has a balanced build, you will pretty much only suffer a slow death. This build should result in about 50 %-win rate (speculation). What this build is really good at is hunting goblins and samurais. Maybe even rattans, but think the con-build is to limiting overall at level 27.

Goblins are the glass-cannons making it obvious why it works.

Samurais are a bit different. They have low hp and high dmg, but not even close to goblins, but the reason why it is so good is that the samurais boss spam of holy water is without any effect. And the boss quickly kills himself on you. This doesn't work on beyond though.

This is an easy to play build, so have some fun, don't expect to kick ass though, just some satisfying kills against glass-cannons.

Was this full con guide useful ? (please help us improve it in the comments section !) Yes totally ! Worth reading... No.
