*** POISON TRICK NO LONGER WORKS, FIXED *** Remember folks, cookie cutter kills creativity. While these may be the coolest builds found, lets get out there and find the builds that havent been discovered yet, or maybe the thematic builds that aren't min/max but just hit the spot between effective and fun. I made this build as requested but would love to hear from you guys what builds you have come up with and how they work? What have you been able to achieve and what is your fondest memory you have made so far playing the server! Let me know in the comments!
Hello Broken. I just found this server and I am checking in to builds. I really like the sound of the SHD, SHM, ROG but I heard there was a nerf to poison or the reapplication of poisons but nothing specific. Is this build still viable?
@@jerky00000 The nerf just made it so poisons last 2 hours or until death rather than forever... not really a big nerf on its output but a nerf on the wallet. haha. ITS A REALLY REALLY fun combo!
Thanks for covering this! The first response I had to my friend who told me about the server is if someone could roll a mag/nec/bst. I mained a cleric on live for many years and I ended up with sk/clr/bst with a big ambition on being able to swarm pull. I’d love to see more videos showcasing individual class synergies, like how you mentioned bards can give double attacks and such. 29:19 reminded me of the voice of space brain from the old Comic Book Girl 19 movie reviews!
Thanks for the kind comments. Hell yeah. The big thing i want to get into doing is abstract builds. Stuff that works but shouldnt. The poor folks who were watching me stream the minion build had to watch me yawning for about 6 hours cuz it wasnt very engaging. I really enjoy stuff with utility and quirky interactions.
great video and thank you for sharing all things THJ! I started a Mag/Nec/Brd and it is really fun and strong! Having Fading memories allows me to melee and get up to all sorts of shenanigans. :) For whatever reason, folks are sleeping on bards on this server? Hope you get more attention as this server is really something special. I am really hoping the content (end game) continues to be difficult and forcing duo'ing as opposed to pure solo. I am not sure if folks are soloing Pharadar yet...I have to duo with a friend.
@@jaymorningstar244 hahaha awesome jay! There are people out there with 1500-3000 AA that are soloing PD and there are some class combos that do it easier than others but I agree playing with our bros and brodettes is the best! In my humble opinion bards are one of the strongest classes to group with something, they can be a little complicated as you can frantically click spells without canceling them lol.
Playing bst bard nec, like someone said bard gives fade and a tonne of good support. Song of stone is really strong, johnathans procs like crazy and nec gives vamp embrace and lifetap spam for surviving. Really happy with the build so far
i was thinking monk/shaman/ranger with the snare ability and improved range attacks being things I missed a lot when I would push the limits of soloing with my monk in borderline exploitative ways at times on EQ and later started boxing/trying out soloing with a sham. are the raid encounters tuned for soloing/duoing from a damage hp standpoint at all? do the leveling mechanics and gear mostly take care of it? or do you have to scrape 20+ people together? having done a lot of solo/duo/small group kills on older raid mobs on eq, the boredom from the sheer amounts of HP and just dragging the fights on was really the worst part if you were playing with 1 or 2 others who knew what they were doing and weren't worried about a wipe from a dumb mistake
Hey, Monk Shaman Ranger is not a bad combo at all. Raids are not tuned per say.. Gear/AA/Stats are more tuned to allow you to solo/duo certain targets. In fact, if you try raids with more than 2 people, the game actually makes it HARDER on you.
Hi there. When you talked about the AA's for the War/Clr/Bst class, you mentioned on the tooltip things like "Spell crit" and "Spell Dmg", I'm finally at the point where I can start grinding AA's, but I don't see those listed in my AA section. SCR I assume was "Spell Casting Reinforcement"? Do they have different names? Thanks!
funny you mention war/nec /sham. that's what i've been since nov 1. it's great and it's strong. it took me awhile to build into it. but i can solo it all atm.
Love this, thanks... I've been meaning to do a Ranger, Warrior, Bard since I believe the warrior crits effect bow damage now. I started with a very safe build, Mag/Enc/Clr, but I need to pivot into something more fun
@@brokenstoic101 yeah, I’ve been eyeballing that AA. By the way, I’ve been rocking your tag as I’ve been running around the server on most of the characters I’ve tried 🙂
Hey man, honestly, i wouldnt pick any of them if they dont speak to you.. If you want to have longevity and be able to cover all the server's content.. Pick a tank, Pick a priest, and pick a dps/cc and ride it out!
Great video and great content! Question: for the Rogue you mention that you can use 2 poisons - I am level 10, trying out the build - I bought two Bites of the Shissar level 1 - and I drink one, but I cannot get the second one to go into the ammo slot. I've tried left clicking, right clicking, double clicking... Thoughts?
You know almost as soon as i dropped this video. They took out the poisons working in the ranged slot. I would encourage you to skip "bite" poisons and stick with "anger" and "sloth"... Bite potions have charges rather than a duration. Anger has a 2 hour duration and can proc as much as you want, you will find it seems to proc way more often as well.
Heck yeah, all great combos.. They allow you to start at level 1 with some AA unlocked so if you want to be a ranger with a bow, it can work. If you want to run a monk with some fast attacks or a shaman with an early version of torpor. It all exists.. Monk/Ranger/Shaman could be amazing.. So could Bard. It all depends on you.. I think Monk/Ranger/Shaman would give you the survivability and damage output that you want along with some really interesting options for dps through dots, nukes, and fists/feet.
I use a modified version of sparxx that was made by one of folks on our stream team. Xackery. If you click my discord link, you can find it pinned in my THJ channel! I will look at including some of these links in future videos though!
Druids can be used with the most synergy with Necromancer for Magic based dot builds. They also get crit AA like a wizard and can be used along side fast casting classes to spam proc sympathetic strike for big numbers. I also think Druids arent a terrible option alongside stuff like shadowknight, monk, warrior, etc for a support/priest role.. Shadowknights and Rangers both get some damage shield boost aa and can be used together either in a melee or ranged role. Shadowknights have some fast casting lifetaps that could be used as nukes/heals and use the druid aa and druid buffs to support damage/survivability.
@@hunger4wonder there are a ton of current builds that include monk. Hell my main up until recently was a SHD/BER/MNK. I would really love to see more of other peoples builds and ideas.
WAR/BRD/BST super fun. Is it as good as WCB? No, but it’s close and I always wanted to be a dark elf bard! THJ is the best mmo experience I’ve had in a long long time.
I am just starting THJ and fumbling through a lot. Realizing that I have forgotten as much as I've remembered. My first build is BRD/BST/MAG. 3 pets seemed just silly so I decided I'd add utility of BRD's run speed and mana regen with song based dots. And then the 2 non neutral/evil pet classes.
Nice.. Mana is not really a huge focus here but BST/MAG support each other really well and bard supports everything. There are so many songs that can help and they hit all your pets!
Haha you are the 2nd person to bring this build up to me today. I gotta poke around at it but with luclin on the horizon, i doubt much kiting will be done. All those wonderful summoning mobs.

Been playing Pal/Rng/Bst. Tons of fun!
Nice, I bet that is a really fun combo!
Awesome video thank you!! 16:55 cant do that anymore unfortunately
Good call, talked to Cata about this.. Although you can still use the poison. Just has a limitation now.
Very awesome video. I can’t wait to try THJ
Truly amazing experience, so much to do and so many combinations to try and it only keeps growing!
great video and thank you for sharing all things THJ! I started a Mag/Nec/Brd and it is really fun and strong!

Nice! that sounds like a fun build. Lots of DOT options, buffs, and bloodlust! WEEEE! haha.
FYI if you are already in SHM Bear form you can use ancestral aid and it will stack. you just can't use it first.
Good looking out. I will make note of this and bring it up in a future video!
does the rogue backstab trigger when firing a bow? because ranger nec rogue could be fun if so
@@CIkler bows can be shot in melee and so you can use backstab while shooting a bow. Bows also trigger rogue poisons.

Absolutely no problem, i didnt mention the AA by name. Things like "Destructive Fury, Fury of Magic, and spell casting fury."
funny you mention war/nec /sham. that's what i've been since nov 1. it's great and it's strong. it took me awhile to build into it. but i can solo it all atm.
it takes a good amount of time to get it rolling but it is real good.
Love this, thanks... I've been meaning to do a Ranger, Warrior, Bard since I believe the warrior crits effect bow damage now. I started with a very safe build, Mag/Enc/Clr, but I need to pivot into something more fun
Heck yeah! That sounds like a fun build!
I just made a mag/enc/nec. I'm having fun with the ability to charm and enc buff :-).
@@ScottCStew just wait until you get doppelganger!! It's amazing when fully leveled up!
@@brokenstoic101 yeah, I’ve been eyeballing that AA. By the way, I’ve been rocking your tag as I’ve been running around the server on most of the characters I’ve tried 🙂
@@ScottCStew Hahah thanks man
Perfect, thanks!
Im not from the government and im here to help!
Nice vid. I'm new to THJ and mostly a casual player. I'd like to finish all dungeons. Which classes combos would you recommend?
Hey man, honestly, i wouldnt pick any of them if they dont speak to you.. If you want to have longevity and be able to cover all the server's content.. Pick a tank, Pick a priest, and pick a dps/cc and ride it out!
I dunno right now I’m loving my warrior / cleric / Druid
oooo, do you play this like a melee or like a caster? I think both could be a ton of fun!
@@brokenstoic101 I think of it like a Uber pally.. so naturally I play as melee
@@anglsbadboy79 Nice!! Sounds like a fun combo!
@ it is so far I’ve wrecked naggy 2x, woushi just on principle for killing my Druid on live ages ago an the one in over there as well
@anglsbadboy79 haha keep at it!!
Hey man you spoke about putting poison in ammo slot can you elaborate it dosnt work on my rogue
They fixed this sadly and it can no longer be done! =(
Great video and great content!

@@brokenstoic101 got it! Thanks for the follow up - much appreciated!
I am a Monk at heart. I wish I had some haste and tracking. I would want to have a Ranger for sure with it, but Bard or Shaman? would be tough choice.
Heck yeah, all great combos.. They allow you to start at level 1 with some AA unlocked so if you want to be a ranger with a bow, it can work. If you want to run a monk with some fast attacks or a shaman with an early version of torpor. It all exists..

what ui do you use i tried downloading sparxxUI but cant get it to work on this server

@@brokenstoic101 yeah thats funny i was checking the game discord and saw his post on it and already got it downloaded and working thanks!! :)
I love my SK/WIZ/ROGUE
@@bradleypatterson8378 hell yeah, what's your favorite part?
@brokenstoic101 how tanky and how much dps it does it's great
What's a DRU build we can do. Wisdom
Druids can be used with the most synergy with Necromancer for Magic based dot builds. They also get crit AA like a wizard and can be used along side fast casting classes to spam proc sympathetic strike for big numbers.

No monk combos :(

@@brokenstoic101 Oh, i meant on these top 5 ones :)
Hope to see more videos from you on Heroes Journey :)
The Shang Tsung build: Monk, Necromancer, Enchanter. Although Monk, necro, almost anything else could also be amazing.
@@DTSephiroth I like this with boon of the garu, dopple, runes, reverse stun aa, and the list goes on. Solid idea!
I actually created this toon. I'll let you know how it goes.
WAR/BRD/BST super fun. Is it as good as WCB? No, but it’s close and I always wanted to be a dark elf bard! THJ is the best mmo experience I’ve had in a long long time.
Hell ya!! Its a super fun refreshing server for sure! War/Brd/Bst sounds like a ton of fun!
Has anyone done my favorite three-box combo yet, SK, Shaman, Bard? I imagine that'd be a really fun one!
I have seen a few of this and think it would be REALLY good!
I am just starting THJ and fumbling through a lot. Realizing that I have forgotten as much as I've remembered. My first build is BRD/BST/MAG. 3 pets seemed just silly so I decided I'd add utility of BRD's run speed and mana regen with song based dots. And then the 2 non neutral/evil pet classes.

No ranger necro bard? Kite god??
Haha you are the 2nd person to bring this build up to me today. I gotta poke around at it but with luclin on the horizon, i doubt much kiting will be done. All those wonderful summoning mobs.
Reverse Kite God; Ranger / Necromancer / Rogue
@@DTSephiroth Have you tried it? Would love to see it in action!
you need to turn the bass up on your audio
@@Amp5150 I actually turn it down, lol.
I am thinking about more first character budget friendly thats why i looked , had feeling mostly meta builds would not be budget friendly.😂
With new expansions that come out, old gear becomes cheaper.. Gear progression isnt a bad idea for some content either.
I call it op and broken.
The classes? OoooOOoooo no, these are by far not the most OP or broken classes, they are just the lowest hanging fruit.
