Weapon builds

A long time ago, I used to think that double Forcium amp weapons for FB was the way to go. Yeah...no don't think so that was a total nub time frame. The biggest question I get asked in game is "what is the best weapon set up for Force Bladers?" This isn't a easy answer question since FBs have such a variety.

Osmium Build (Osmium PC Dmg Sword/Lapis PC Dmg Orb): Some things don't change over time and neither does my opinion on this build since you can get such better options these days. The plus side...you have nice Crit Damage...but your attack suffers greatly. Good luck trying to break 1k attack with this build.

Amp build (2x Forcium S.Amp weapons): I went this build at one point and it is a cheap gear up if you are not yet able to afford end-game weapons. I pretty much call this build the "temporary" build since you don't want to use this long term. It will basically allow you to run things but you will have problems excelling if you maintain this build for long.

Mix build (Forcium S.Amp Sword/Lapis or Topaz PC Dmg Deathblow): This is an option a lot of Force Bladers go with...I myself used this build for close to a year before upgrading to what I currently have(we'll save that for another post though). It basically will give you a nice balance between both attack and Crit Dmg. You can usually do most end game things with this build as long as it's not solo play. With solo you may run into problems.

Redosmium Build (Redosmium Sword PC Dmg/Topaz PC Dmg): This destroys all the other builds mentioned before it. While I was against Osm build, Redosmium is squarely in the middle of Osmium and Forcium. You will be able to have a nice balance of Attack and Crit Damage while being able to extend on your endgame activities(although soloing things like IC2 and Pluma might still be slightly out of reach).

Extreme build (Forcium PC Dmg Sword/Lapis PC Dmg): This is what I use...except for the fact my blade is 34 Damage and not 36. Pretty simple...you can basically do anything with this(obviously...Forcium Deathblow come on lol). There is very little room for improvement here, apart from upgrading to Topaz or Forcium Damage Crystal/Orb.

Other: You also have the option of using 2 slot Forcium weapons. I actually was lucky enough to test out a 2 slot +11 orb awhile back. Your DPS will be roughly equal to that of a Lapis PC Dmg DB. I noticed my non crits were higher while my crits were lower compared to a Lapis. With Illusion Castle B2F dropping 2 slot on a regular basis this may also be something you want to look into.
