My end game Sampire

[hirikawa]

I have been playing various templates of warriors. I wanted to share a modern one that I have created in recent months. The idea of every Sampire build is to hit as hard as possible and that's how this template is created. Many things I write here are pretty obvious, but I will try to highlight the less obvious ones.

I just wanted to mention that idea of this template is to maximize everything, not to be cheap. (Solaria's Secret Poison and Cameo set it is expensive).

Hope you like it! I spend a lot of time on this setup and I'm still updating it if possible

Version 2023 (Not actual. New template is posted in post number 18)



Highlights:

1) 150 Hit Points, 186 Stamina, 65 Mana.
2) Use Super Slayers from Weapons + Super Slayers from Talismans (Enchantress' Cameo / An Bal Xen / In Corp Mani Xen / Conjurer's Trinket). This allows mixing slayer types or stack two of them (to achieve max Damage Modifier without Honor / Enemy Of One). Super Slayer does stack together.
3) Weapons:
- Double Axe Super Slayer set with 100% Elemental Damage, Max possible HML, HLL, HSL, Hit Area Spell (use Hit Fire Area with Fire weapon, Cold with Cold etc.) Slayer property does affect Hit Area Spell so you do a lot of damage with this spell, although it only hits surrounding mobs not the one you are targeting.
- Bladed Staff Super Slayer set with 100% Elemental Damage (do not need to be Elemental!), Max possible HML, HLL, HSL, Hit Lower Attack.
4) 30 HLD from Mace and Shield Riding Glasses.
5) 100 DI on suit (to use weapons without DI).
6) 45 HCI (5 from Town Bonus)
7) 45 DCI
8) +63 skill points on gear - this is the most important point of this template.
9) 120 Swordsmanship, 120 Tactics, 120 Anatomy, 120 Bushido, 118 Parrying is a must. 120 Swords and 120 Tactics must be a real skill for using Special Moves (Onslaught).
10) Rest of the skills are switchable depending on situations:
- 100 Necromancy to 100 Lumberjack
- 85 Resisting Spells to 85 Chivalry
- 100 Necromancy to 100 Healing.
The most time I run with 100 Necromancy and 85 Resisting Spells.
11) I found that Chivalry is not very needed nowadays. To use Sacred Journey spell I use switchable equipment to add +60 Chivalry skill points (+10 from Luna Lance, +10 from Sign of Order, +20 from ring and +20 from bracelet). I use Enchanted Apples for Remove Course, Trap Box for Paralyze. When Renevant is spawned I consider it as a bonus (extra Life, Mana and Stamina) so I do not need to dispel it.
12) Use Counter Attack a lot! and of course Evasion and Confidence.
13) 18% Damage Eater - Most people will say that this is not needed on Sampire. I found it comes very handy in situations when you need to run from heavy spawn or when you cannot target for some amount of time (due to EC bugs / mobile connection / whatever).
14) 13 HPR, 21 SR, 13 MR - Same as above, most people will say that this is not needed on Sampire and the reason i like it is pointed above.
15) 45 LMC and metal armor provide a heavy bonus to stamina loss reduction. Only 5 best pieces count, so there is not need for metal equivalent of Mace and Shield glasses.
16) On the majority of my armor pieces Powder of Fortifying can be used to have durability back to 255/255. Some items are without durability, and some have Self Repair hidden on them (Cameo, Minax Sandals). Only Solaria's Secret Poison, Legendary Tunic and Jewelry cannot back to 255/255. Non destructible items come very handy when you want to use your Sampire a lot.
17) Overcapped Stamina (with 35 SSI need only 150 stamina to swing 3.25 weapons at max speed) and Strength to prevent loss when under the course. I also have Rose of Trinsic petals in backpack for additional +5 STR when needed (and it last 5 min each). You can keep a few Rose of Trinsic in backpack and gather petals from there. It's never-ending supply.
18) Use Paroxy Dragon for 12% damage reduction or / and Exceptional Dragon Barding on Swamp Dragon for 20%.







What can be improved / changed depending on taste:

1) Add more skill points. Resisting Spells could always be higher. In my opinion skills are overlooked in some Sampire templates. Those are weaker compared to templates with a lot of skill bonus points .+60 skill points is a lot better than no skill points added at all. How can we get more then 60 skill points:
- Use 20 DCI and armor refinements to have more space on Jewelry
- Get Legendary Antique Jewelry with more skill points
2) To gain more stats use Prismatic Lenses and Legendary Gloves instead of Gloves of Feudal Grip. Chest could be Balron Bone Armor.

PS. that 1 point in Fire Resistance will be added when I will finally enhance one pieces of armor

Topic has been updated with final version of this template (if i do not upgrade it again )

 

[Merlin]

Very impressive write up and build. I love the way you show the breakdown of all year gear and provide the stat sheet in Excel . Excellent work!

 

[Keven2002]

Nice work! Great read.

 

[psycrow]

very nice topic! im building my sampire, but dang, it's hard to find good equipment playing solo.

 

[hirikawa]

Thanks for comments!

The best way is to farm gold and buy what you need if your are on ATL And the best way to farm gold are those events like Treasures of the Feudal Lands.

To do more basic and cheap version of this template you would need lower skill points of jewellery and add there HCI and more DI. This way Solaria's Secret Poison are not needed. Also it is possible to go with more stamina and less SSI on suit.

I'm very new to ATL, i'm still learning about the game.

 

[hirikawa]

Some random thoughts about why not everything is not best option even if it looks so. This might be useful for people who started making templates and want to learn some thing

Balron Bone Armor vs my Legendary Chest Piece. Why I won't use (probably) Balron Bone Armor on my template.



Mana + Int is the same on both items. Resist are also almost the same (Balron can be Enhaced to have more Fire Resisit).
Balron Bone Armor provides 5 STR, 5 DEX and 8 Stamina. But it loses 2 HP compared to my current item. I also lose 9 Damage Eater (I only need 9 to reach the cap) and some Regens (3 points overall). I have already overcapped STR and DEX so those are totally not needed. Hypothetically I could use more stamina on my suit (like 210 to have it overcapped too) and would only need 20 SSI on suit. Than I could get rid of some SSI from for jewelry. But 10 SSI imbuing weight is marginal there (36 points), so it would not leave much space for anything else. That's why I think 10 SSI on both jewels is a must and best choice out there. Rest SSI comes from Cameo Talismans, and Epaulettes which is best in slot item for warriors (I think so ).

Balron also provides 3 LMC vs 1 LMC metal piece bonus, and can be POFed.

Still I consider it as second choice for this template and I won't switch even if I already have a few of those. The only real upgrade would let me add more skill points, for example on jewelry. But that would cost me removing more DI or DCI from that place which is not possible by current available pieces.

 

[hirikawa]

Okay here i come again. I build new variation of Sampire with new items With current event Solaria's Secret Poisons are back and Corrupted Paladin Vambraces too. So this build is a lot more accessible then ever. And it can easily solo Paragon Skeletal Dragons from event.

Version 2024 (Not actual. New template is posted in post number 18. This version of template works without Town Bonus or 5 SSI that comes from Cameo Talismans - so An Bal Xen, Conjurer's Trinket can be use).







Highlights:
1) 150 Hit Points, 184 Stamina, 96 Mana.
2) Use Super Slayers from Weapons + Super Slayers from Talismans (Enchantress' Cameo / An Bal Xen / In Corp Mani Xen / Conjurer's Trinket). This allows mixing slayer types or stack two of them (to achieve max Damage Modifier without Honor / Enemy Of One). Super Slayer does stack together.
3) Weapons:
- Double Axe Super Slayer set with 100% Elemental Damage, Max possible HML, HLL, HSL, Hit Area Spell (use Hit Fire Area with Fire weapon, Cold with Cold etc.) Slayer property does affect Hit Area Spell so you do a lot of damage with this spell, although it only hits surrounding mobs not the one you are targeting.
- Bladed Staff Super Slayer set with 100% Elemental Damage (do not need to be Elemental!), Max possible HML, HLL, HSL, Hit Lower Attack.
- A few more specific weapons like Bladed Staff with HML, HLL, HSL, Hit Lighting or Double Axe with HML, HLL, HSL, Spell Channgeling.
4) 30 HLD from Prismatic Lenses.
5) 100 DI on suit (to use weapons without DI).
6) 45 HCI
7) 40 DCI
8) +95 skill points on gear - this is the most important point of this template.
9) 120 Swordsmanship, 120 Tactics, 120 Anatomy, 120 Bushido, 120 Parrying. 120 Swords and 120 Tactics must be a real skill for using Special Moves (Onslaught).
10) Rest of the skills are switchable depending on situations:
- 100 Necromancy to 100 Lumberjack
- 85 Resisting Spells to 100 Chivalry (+15 from Gloves)
- 100 Necromancy to 115 Healing (+15 on Leggings).
The most time I run with 100 Necromancy and 85 Resisting Spells.
11) I found that Chivalry is not very needed nowadays. To use Sacred Journey spell I use switchable equipment to add +60 Chivalry skill points (+10 from Luna Lance, +10 from Sign of Order, +20 from ring and +20 from bracelet). I use Enchanted Apples for Remove Course, Trap Box for Paralyze. When Renevant is spawned I consider it as a bonus (extra Life, Mana and Stamina) so I do not need to dispel it.
12) Use Counter Attack a lot! and of course Evasion and Confidence.
13) 12% Damage Eater, 8 HPR, 24 SR, 8 MR - I found it comes very handy in situations when you need to run from heavy spawn or when you cannot target for some amount of time (due to EC bugs / mobile connection / whatever).
14) 45 LMC and metal armor provide a heavy bonus to stamina loss reduction. Only 5 best pieces count, so there is not need for metal equivalent of Prismatic Lenses.
15) On the majority of my armor pieces Powder of Fortifying can be used to have durability back to 255/255. Some items are without durability, and some have Self Repair hidden on them (Cameo, Shanty’s Waders). Only Solaria's Secret Poison, Kaelvok’s Cincture, Legendary Tunic and Jewelry cannot be back to 255/255. Non destructible items come very handy when you want to use your Sampire a lot.
16) Overcapped Stamina (with 35 SSI I need only 150 stamina to swing 3.25 weapons at max speed) and Strength (a bit) to prevent loss when under the course. I also have Rose of Trinsic petals in backpack for additional +5 STR when needed (and it last 5 min each). You can keep a few Rose of Trinsic in backpack and gather petals from there. It's never-ending supply.
17) Use Paroxy Dragon for 12% damage reduction or / and Exceptional Dragon Barding on Swamp Dragon for 20%.

A few more words about template:
- Legendary Tunic can be obtained really cheap. You can find better piece with more HPR / MR and even 15% Damage Eater. The most important thing is that you need at last 18 Fire Resist on it and then enhance it using Forged Metal Of Artifacts and Agapite Igots to get it to the 25 Fire Resist. That's why Balron Bone Armor won't work (and its ugly )
- Corrupted Paladin Vambraces are also enhanced.
- New Azarok's Legplates and Gloves of Holy Warrior adds another +30 skill points to template. It comes very handy when you swap skills to Healing or Chivalry. Basically by changing Necromancy to Healing you can convert it from Sampire to normal Warrior with 115 Healing (and 120 Anatomy).
- With those new items my template have a lot more mana (30 points), but we lose some regenerations and 5 DCI.

If I will find another variation of template I will post it

- With those new items my template have a lot more mana, but we lose overaped Strength and 45 DCI.

The other possible variant for this template is to have Minax's Sandals, Gloves of Feudal Grips and different jewelry (8 HCI, 15 DCI, 10 SSI, +15 Anatomy, +15 Parrying). It will have lower mana by 20 points, it won't have extra 15 Chivalry points, but we will have 45 HCI and 45 DCI on suit. So there is no need to use Town Bonus which can be handy on some dead shards.

If I will find another variation of template I will post it

Really great write up! Thank you for sharing your changes.

My one question for you would be to ask if you feel like you have enough mana? In example, it appears you are overcapped on hit points (suit has +32, but you only get credit for +25). Perhaps you could switch out Chest slot for a piece that does not have Hit Points and perhaps a little more mana? Similarly with the sash slot, you can swap the Corgul sash for the Warlord Sash. You would replace +1 Stamina and 5 DCI with a 10% Eater and +4 Stats, in which case you could pick one with Intelligence. You could then refine an additional five points of resist into the suit. Just an idea for another variant!

Great work!

Even on 65 mana (previous 2023 template version) it was ok. That 97 mana comes handy only when I have not put Chivalry on template and occur encounter without Slayer type. Let's say for example on spring event with Pirates. But overall more mana is better than lower mana

I have 27 HP, not sure why that number 32 appear on screenshot. I found out that in EC sometimes i have wrong numbers in some places (like for example damage output). Will fix it later.

About refinements I'm still thinking if i should go that way or not Need to do some tests. Thanks for suggestion!

You were actually right, I did mistake in spreadsheet and did not notice that. Which made me really happy because now I included Kaelvok’s Cincture. Town Bonus for HCI is not needed anymore, and we have a bit more overcapped Strength. Also better Chest piece appeared with 12% Damage Eater. Template have been updated

 

[kaio]

120 Swords and 120 Tactics must be a real skill for Warrior's Gift Mastery

This is not true, you get the "full" gift even with 90 weapon skill, and 0 tactics. What matters is the level of the primer.

 

[Anon McDougle]

The mana upkeep is what real skill affects

 

[kaio]

The mana upkeep is what real skill affects

The only thing that scales with sword/tactics is the extra special moves that comes with the primer, which has nothing todo with the warriors gift which is still based on level of the primer and nothing else.

 

[Anon McDougle]

They were speaking of onslaught and the other move it's the wording

 

[hirikawa]

Yes I was writing about special moves that comes from primer there. It was mental shortcut I should have not use term "Warrior's Gift Mastery". Thanks for pointing that out I will fix that.

Soon I will post suit version with new Shadowbane Tabard included

 

[hirikawa]

Ok here is another variation of previous template. The goal is of course to put as much as it possible and make it as variable as possible. This variation includes new Shadowbane Tabbard (why this item? read "A few more details about template") and requires Cameo Talismans or Town Bonus (for 5 SSI). It let's you use boots of your choice. Tunic also does not have much requirements.

Version 2024 B (current version).









Highlights:
1) 150 Hit Points, 196 Stamina, 100 Mana.
2) Use Super Slayers from Weapons + Super Slayers from Talismans (Enchantress' Cameo / An Bal Xen / In Corp Mani Xen / Conjurer's Trinket). This allows mixing slayer types or stack two of them (to achieve max Damage Modifier without Honor / Enemy Of One). Super Slayer does stack together.
3) Weapons:
- Double Axe Super Slayer set with 100% Elemental Damage, Max possible HML, HLL, HSL, Hit Area Spell (use Hit Fire Area with Fire weapon, Cold with Cold etc.) Slayer property does affect Hit Area Spell so you do a lot of damage with this spell, although it only hits surrounding mobs not the one you are targeting.
- Bladed Staff Super Slayer set with 100% Elemental Damage (do not need to be Elemental!), Max possible HML, HLL, HSL, Hit Lower Attack.
- A few more specific weapons like Bladed Staff with HML, HLL, HSL, Hit Lighting or Double Axe with HML, HLL, HSL, Spell Channgeling.
4) 30 HLD from Mace and Shield Reading Glasses (Blackthorn equivalent of it to have 5 metal armor pieces for stamina loss reduction).
5) 100 DI on suit (to use weapons without DI)
6) 35 SSI on suit. (to use weapons without SSI). Last 5 SSI vomes from Cameo Talismans. If you plan to use other Slater Talismans (An Bal Xen / In Corp Mani Xen / Conjurer's Trinket) 5 SSI from City Loyality Town Bonus is required.
7) 45 HCI
8) 45 DCI
9) +95 skill points on gear - this is the most important point of this template
10) 120 Swordsmanship, 120 Tactics, 120 Anatomy, 120 Bushido, 120 Parrying. 120 Swords and 120 Tactics must be a real skill for using Special Moves (Onslaught is used a lot and 20% resisting is achieved on 240 skill points combined).
11) Rest of the skills are switchable depending on situations:
- 100 Necromancy to 100 Lumberjack
- 85 Resisting Spells to 100 Chivalry (+15 from Gloves)
- 100 Necromancy to 115 Healing (+15 on Leggings).
The most time I run with 100 Necromancy and 85 Resisting Spells.
12) I found that Chivalry is not very needed nowadays. To use Sacred Journey spell I use switchable equipment to add +60 Chivalry skill points (+10 from Luna Lance, +10 from Sign of Order, +20 from ring and +20 from bracelet). I use Enchanted Apples for Remove Course, Trap Box for Paralyze. When Renevant is spawned I consider it as a bonus (extra Life, Mana and Stamina) so I do not need to dispel it.
13) Use Counter Attack a lot! and of course Evasion and Confidence.
14) When using Axes special move Onslaught is used all the time on this build. Armor Ignore when using Bladed Staff.
15) 45 LMC and metal armor provide a heavy bonus to stamina loss reduction. Only 5 pieces count.
16) Overcapped Stamina (with 35 SSI I need only 150 stamina to swing 3.25 weapons at max speed) and Strength to prevent loss when under the course. I also have Rose of Trinsic petals in backpack for additional +5 STR when needed (and it last 5 min each). You can keep a few Rose of Trinsic in backpack and gather petals from there. It's never-ending supply.
17) Use Paroxy Dragon for 12% damage reduction or / and Exceptional Dragon Barding on Swamp Dragon for 20%.

A few more details about template:
- You can take Tunic of your choice. Balron Bone Armor (is ugly ) gives a lot of Stamina, Mana, Strength and Hit Points. But you can also chose piece with Damage Eater or more Regens if you like. Basically it only needs to have 18 Fire Resists and 5 HP- rest are stats of your choice.
- You can use Boots of your choice. No requirements here.
- New Azarok's Legplates and Gloves of Holy Warrior adds another +30 skill points to template. It comes very handy when you swap skills to Healing or Chivalry. Basically by changing Necromancy to Healing you can convert it from Sampire to normal Warrior with 115 Healing (and 120 Anatomy).
- New Shadowbane Tabbard comes with 10 HCI and 10 DCI. Imbue weight of those is a lot bigger than 10 SSI which comes from Lord Morphius' Epaulettes. Shadowbane Tabbard also includes 8 LMC. Overall I think it is better piece than Lord Morphius' Epaulettes.
- Corrupted Paladin Vambraces are enhanced.

What could be improved / changed?
- Remove 10 DCI from Ring or Bracelet, or from both and use Refinements with at last 20 DCI on suit. This can add extra 9-18 skill points on your Ring and Bracelet (Chivalry or Resisting Spells).
- Remove 5 DCI from Sash and use Warlord Sash for 10 Damage Eater

PS.
Post your end game Archer templates (and other templates too). I would love to see some!!!

16) Overcapped Stamina (with 35 SSI I need only 150 stamina to swing 3.25 weapons at max speed) and Strength to prevent loss when under the course. I also have Rose of Trinsic petals in backpack for additional +5 STR when needed (and it last 5 min each). You can keep a few Rose of Trinsic in backpack and gather petals from there. It's never-ending supply.
17) Use Paroxy Dragon for 12% damage reduction or / and Exceptional Dragon Barding on Swamp Dragon for 20%.

A few more details about template:
- You can take Tunic of your choice. Balron Bone Armor (is ugly ) gives a lot of Stamina, Mana, Strength and Hit Points. But you can also chose piece with Damage Eater or more Regens if you like. Basically it only needs to have 18 Fire Resists and 5 HP- rest are stats of your choice.
- You can use Boots of your choice. No requirements here.
- New Azarok's Legplates and Gloves of Holy Warrior adds another +30 skill points to template. It comes very handy when you swap skills to Healing or Chivalry. Basically by changing Necromancy to Healing you can convert it from Sampire to normal Warrior with 115 Healing (and 120 Anatomy).
- New Shadowbane Tabbard comes with 10 HCI and 10 DCI. Imbue weight of those is a lot bigger than 10 SSI which comes from Lord Morphius' Epaulettes. Shadowbane Tabbard also includes 8 LMC. Overall I think it is better piece than Lord Morphius' Epaulettes.
- Corrupted Paladin Vambraces are enhanced.

What could be improved / changed?
- Remove 10 DCI from Ring or Bracelet, or from both and use Refinements with at last 20 DCI on suit. This can add extra 9-18 skill points on your Ring and Bracelet (Chivalry or Resisting Spells).
- Remove 5 DCI from Sash and use Warlord Sash for 10 Damage Eater

PS.
Post your end game Archer templates (and other templates too). I would love to see some!!!

Great job! just a side note, if you refine the armor to get all 75 resists, you will be 4 fire resists short from cap. That said i have imbued a ring with fire resists, and i cant swallow that. I am using it, it works, but i just find too 'ugly' to have fire resists as an imbued mod on my jewelry.

There is another solution for that, you could find Legendary Armor piece with at last 17 Fire Resists and Enhance it with Agapite. That piece can have Damage Eater on it. But it needs 5 HP so you will have less Stamina than with Balron Bone Armor.
