HOW TO FIGHT A DARKRUNNER BREAKDOWN - Primeval PvP | Archeage [3.0] 

My preferred opening on most classes is, buffs, shadowstep > leech > snare > snipe > overwhelm > shadowsmite > backdrop(or just moving away) > throw dagger > Charged/piercing > concussive(shackle from shadowsmite about to end) > boneyard > then either float or hunting pack depending

yes yes yes i needed this video

Great video. My only suggestion would be to pause it at intervals and highlight the tells that indicate what action you are countering. Also because I suck, a non-music version and a rotation breakdown would make my day. :)

When a Darkrunner fights you and you wear cloth, you are the one that ends up broken up.

You should do a video about fighting a darkrunner as mage

Good vid man. I only say good and not great cause I dont like DRs or Primes lol. But Still like the vids you are bringing out. They are helping a friend of mine that is trying Prime this time around. On the vid setup I would say lead with the guide and then cut to the music vids for the end.

Crazy how archeage classic is bringing me right back here for guidance lol, have you heard of it and do you intend on playing or nah? its popping off big time, a lot of people playing

saving grace is most DR are two-handers now. keeps them from parry proccing like crazy like the old days. you can actually put out damage now.

Its quit easy to anticipate leech engage and counter it accordingly, even if u stealth away. Tho it could be smth specific to me, since when i started (back in the old days) daggerspells were everywhere, going into stealth +shadowstep+banshee combo, so i had to learn how to counter it.

Hey there, im a primeval myself on eu prophecy, around 4700 equipment score, Im not a pro in any case but i have my own way of dealing with darkrunners. But let me say something first. Your way and my way get fucked up even with 1 resist, DR's are so op that even someone with 3000-3200 gear score can kill you in 1 combo no matter how geared you are. One other thing is that balanced arena is 9/10 loses against DR, it ain't balanced at all. 13991 hp is bullshit, giving me shield buff and divine buff and i have 13991?? I have with celestial and dual weapons outside arena 16100 Hp..... Ok let's see, the combo im using atm and works really good is, sleep> snare(walk back a little so you cant get slept)>snipe(the target now gets tripped cause he was snared)>overwhelm>shadowsmite(tripped again)> concussive shot(he is now silenced)>dropback>throw dagger(increased ranged because of dropback)>charged bolt(this will stun, since you hit with throw dagger and slowed him). By then or earlier any DR will have died with my gear BUT if a resist happens it gets rly tough...... Plus obviously more casual gamers wouldn't have my gear so it would be even harder. To be honest DR is such a cheat... i went today with my alt lvl 51 DR in arenas and won 8/10....(the balanced ones-600equipment score on me).

Can you show us your build mate please?

the point is being faster

Don't forget to vote on what you want to see me fight next!! www.strawpoll.me/12102628

As archer you are also kinda lucky everyone is running 2h, they cant parry ranged attacks with that.

@Rythmn can you please make a video about your keybinds that you are using for Archeage? Keep it up love your content

You see, that's why I rerolled classes. On NA servers it's fine, but move to Prophecy EU and there's a constant server lag that makes it impossible to use movement defensively like that. I thought it would better with time, but we're well into the fresh start servers now, and they're still running on a toaster. Also, very sexy snail.

do u not play wow or something anymore

hey Rythnm what did u take out of archery talents to get concussive shot plus bone yard? Btw.. love your vids man keep it up.

What's the name of that nodachi

what button did you set leech to ?

is archage still p2w or not? thinking to start again so

what song is that. plz link it.

Qué arco tienes?

not bad, though im surprised you dont do leech > snare > snipe. it will trip the target. I'm also surprised how little darkrunners and melee users in general dont use liberation, that shit is a life saver against other DRs and leechers. and would easily allow them to get you after the concussive. Pretty good though, just wish there was less leech. that mythic ping is OP >.< SEXY SNAIL

Fresh servers laggy as fuck, my endless arrows like a auto attack...

noob question : how do you change your mirror warp direction keybinds ?

Great vid, the explanation of what your thinking helps. Two days late, but worth a try: Sexy Snail forever!!!

how to beat a dark runner: use defense.

Enigmatist and or defiler

Song list? :)

primeval vs cleric pls

song name?

Primevals are soo easy to catch as DR. Key is timing lol

What is the best Healer class at the moment for dungeons and zergs? Sexy Snail, by the way I am on EU server so do not know if that code will work here.

you won't beat a darkrunner who knows how to play, unless extreme RNG is in your favour just how it is

tbh it would be nice for you to show case your viewers how to win without leech. Opening a match with shadowstep leech is zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

why they just dont backdrop/shadowstep/leech u, i dont understand ^^

end of video op!!!! o/ SEXY SNAIL!!!!

I love this you are the best. I want more open world pvp and stealing trade pack cuz u make it fun!!!! love u ^.^

so basically I'm going to get rekt with my 3.7k GS lol good video man

Rythmn as an Australian I'll have higher ping I can get it to roughly 130 with a VPN is primeval still viable with this ping?

I refuse to play primeval since it is all I see >:( also did you say sex snell? o.o or snail?

Its easier to kill most darkrunners like this because of the two handed meta and they have low parry rates even with battle focus as you can see all the fights are against 2h weapons but its a trade off as dual wielding parries more but does a lot less dmg. Keep an eye on their buffs and general rule of thumb as an archer though like Rhythmn says, dont get caught hahaha.

Rythmn vs Kooncoon who will win? :3

If I ever see you in arena (Idk how it works if you go against just your own side or both) Im just not even going to try... /beg

"sexy snail" :O

Sexy Snail That's the weirdest comment I've ever written on RU-vid. You're welcome.

sexy snail!!!

such a sexy snail

So many bad dark runners...

sexsy snail

Hey Rythmn as a darkrunner with more then 5000 hours as the class and previously playing primeval for about 2000 i would have to way this guide is pretty deceiving, you showed one or two people who beat you and the rest were people with no experience, all the people in this guide used two-handers to start with, meaing they dont get the parry buff against archery which i can guarentee you even as 2h darkrunner i still used this passive meaning all i had to do was switch to a shield and any shitty weapon and any primeval would do next to no damage, most of these darkrunners didn't even spec liberation, like seriously WTF?? and @Trigga Darkrunner is the most broken class in this game, primeval imo is one of the worse balanced classes in the game if Rythmn didnt use leech the person he would be fighting would have to be a complete idiot not to win!

SEXY SNAIL! that shet is soooo cute xD

SEXY SNAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TEXAS FOR LIFE!!!!!!!!!!
