This is the best format you've done with your guides, love it. Going through thought process and scenarios is really good to make it understandable. 10/10
That makes at least two of us. I also like the theorycrafting presented as well, so I can tweak my Wardancer to fit my playstyle and skills and how that works with the mechanics.
A tip to early game/ mid game wardancer when you can't have this build yet, you can put the bleeding rune (preferably purple+) in energy combustion, it gives out very decent damage because the bleeding will keep ticking as long as you keep hitting the circle on the enemy.
Great video and very informative as always. Looks like the red glow of energy combustion before exploding is something we don't have at global yet. Unless I suddenly turned color blind. Looking forward to that.
Dude... i already feel like i am repeating myself due to the fact that this isn´t the first time i comment on one of your videos but thank you so much for all your content. The way you analyse and explain everything is just so well thought, easy to digest and it´s easy to tell it all comes from someone that´s experienced and knows what they are talking about. Whenever i try a new class i always come to your channel for info on builds, proper way of playing and what to expect of the class in the future. Hope your channel grows a bunch, since you certainly deserve it. Will keep supporting you! Thanks =)
IMO you have the best class breakdown/guides of any other lost ark content creator, you should really make a destroyer guide next since it will be released soon on global servers.
This is the most helpful Lost Ark video I've ever seen, especially as a new player who loves my wardancer but feels that I'm nowhere near as 'OP' as people make the class out to sound. Seems like it'll be a long road to get my wardancer there, but I feel way more prepared to tackle it now. Thank you so much for your detailed videos! Would love to see a video that summarizes cheap/easy classes to build and feel good playing + what they need most (engravings vs. runes vs. ???), especially any that feel like they come online in T1-T2. All of the info available seems to be about how classes are powerful or feel good to play at end T3, but most of us aren't there yet.
Yeah, Wardancer before Fourteen sth ilvl plays (from my limited experience) indeed like a wet noodle.^^ - I feel that Deathblade actually provides some of the best balance, throughout the full game: She obv gets stronger (and possible MVP material, with high player skill) at high levels, but already gives at least feel-good vibes early. Compared to mow-down-everything-then-fall-down-cliff, like it is probably (as Korea seems to suggest) the case with Berserker. I would say, for Blade: A tier for endgame, clearly way below the "big 3", Gunlancer, and supports, and likely some others. Somewhat at the higher end of expensiveness (but likely cheaper than some; e.g. Gunslinger, who needs great Tripods) . Moderate actual skill requirement, but with quite a high possible ceiling. And, as mentioned, some of the best class balance in the game: Probably (unless you are exceptional) never too great, except for dedicated PvP, but also never truly terrible, including "true endgame". The 3 defining factors for quality for the gear are: Tripods, and, from jewelry and ability stones, stats (like Swiftness or Specialty) , and engravings. - Runes are what you hopefully pick up somewhere along the way; they are not tradable.
The QoL change to make EC turn red when it’s about to expire isn’t on NA. A nice little addition that will help me in those situations where I lose track of time remaining during hectic moments.
I was a tad baffled by this that I had been doing something wrong, only to find out that it just isn't in NA yet. LOL thanks for the additional confirmation that I haven't gone crazy
damn wardancer looks pretty crazy, I hope that Striker is next so I can play both videos together to compare and contrast the two classes. Keep up the amazing work ATK.
I've played both on the RU server prior to the EU release and the real difference is in the endgame ,with striker being more selfish- focusing more on slow burst dmg rather than consistent dps without any real party buffs except for one foe crit debuff. WD is generally played faster and has higher dps alongside its many party buffs.
This is one of the best guides for a Wardancer I've ever seen; before watching this I was considering turning her into an alt even though I have loads of fun playing her but now she doesn't feel so gimped anymore so she's still my main, thank you!
I love the fact that you cleared the skill in the Bar and showed the counter. And spells on by on. Very nice to follow along when you just created and picked up your wardancer. Great work!
Okay I'm 1360 WD and this video is extremely helpful. I've realized that getting enough esoteric bubbles is vastly more important than 1 or 2 tripod dps skills. I'm gonna play around with my tripods and use more esoteric generation tripods over damage tripods. At the end of the day, more frequent rotations of skills does more dps than a few damage tripods. Great video for beginners and ppl maining the class! I learned a lot! :D
As a war dancer main I felt weak asf and like a massive hold back in literally anything co-op. After watching this I followed the build but made my own tweaks and honestly have been loving it so much. Definitely feel a lot stronger to say the least and when I tested it in training at 1415 I’m able to dish out 5mil damage in one cycle of my skills ( dunno if that’s a lot for 1415 but yeah) I use 2 esoteric skills and am able to do max build up fairly quick. Yeah I definitely wish I could thank you because I genuinely loved this class in beta and wanted to use her but after reaching guardian raids I felt like I wasn’t offering much. Thanks again🤍🤍🤍
Appreciate these vids, lot of the guides floating around just say what to do but don't really give much of the thought process behind what you're using and why. I started out wardancer but ended up swapping to scrapper because it feels horrible right now to play. I could see myself main swapping back to it in the future when I can realistically get the character to this point where it feels good. Have a soulfist as well and similarly it feels horrific to play right now but I'm betting I'll enjoy it a lot more in late game.
I'm impressed with your guides seem to keep getting better. Please please continue teaching us how to understand the class instead of just how to play it.
This video couldn't have come at a better time for me, I really appreciate the level of detail you went into on this one since I noticed that WD is much more complex than other classes when it comes to gear progression. Really love your content and it makes me happy to see others do to!
OH SHIT THE GUIDE IS OUT! LET FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Wardancer OP My Brain is blown, I am running 1st intention right now but I didn't realized the value of keen blunt due to all the crit rate synergies. The timing of the last hit on energy combustion with the synergy was something that I never thought of. That is a ton of extra DPS being left on the table.
A huge tip for Esoteric Wardancers! Winds Whisper is better with Quick Prep tripod when it's at least level 4! This lines up the cooldown exactly with Wind God + Blast Formation. This becomes evident in Loawa's player statistics where 67% of Wardancers in mid/late T3 are running Quick Prep. If you don't have level 4 Quick Prep then use Wind's Whisper tripod. This lets you burst 33% more often and is thus a dps increase over time compared to getting 15% more crit chance per usage.
I'm one of the 2.4% of players that has a Wardancer on NA West, but I'm also one of the few in that population that chose to play Esoteric lololol. Shes definitely feels weak and I'm almost never MVP even if I play perfectly, but at the same time she still feels useful because of her party buffs. Plus the burst window is so frantic satisfying with the tornado and big explosions lol, but very hard to land if the boss has a small hitbox :( She's super fun though. Glad I picked her :D
Im with you, once i through a bleed rune on and went with a 2 esoteric skills instead of 1 like most guides said i started getting mvps. I only have 280 skill points too
@@brice9013 Double spender is for sure the way to go but it's stupid hard to play compared to other classes. Low mobility, many animation locks, strict burst windows, git gud or get smeared across the floor lol.
this video only applies to KR version as EU/NA do not have the same tripods. For instance Wind's whisper, we don't have the crit tripod as specified 1.01 time stamp, which makes a huge impact on the build
Thanks for the guide ! Always a pleasure to watch your video. You make amazing content. I really love wardancer. I made one as an alt and t1/t2 was quite painfull but now she's in t3 and I feel way more powerfull and less squishy than t1/t2. I probably change my main for her in the future.
Super nice video, I have been leveling my WD on the side and planning to making it my main Bcz of play style, but it feels lack luster right now at T2, but seen that the future for WD is bright I am gonna keep at it
I enjoyed your older guides such as the red or blue gunlancer video, where you showed the skill first, and then explained what it does and all that. I don’t play either of these classes but I found your older guides to be at a better pace for newcomers who don’t know anything about the game. Keep pumping out the quality content!
Man I love these videos, not only you give us good builds but also explain why they are the way they are, hopefully you do an Scrapper one soon cause she is my highest alt and idk shit about her lol, keep doing a good work king.
Im so hype to watch this you literally make the best lost ark content on youtube, i told all my friends about you we all love the content. Keep up the great work! Also love the streams i was laughing so hard when you were talking about that one canadian dude loooool😂😂
Ah mhy ghod he did it 😍 ty! Ive been feeling so down since my wardancer feels so weak but u explaining all the details and when and how it actually starts making dmg helps and Im gonna keep playing it. U said alot of notes and info I havent been able to find online and in other guides, this is gonna help alot! Does anyone know any wardancer youtubers or streamers?
Interesting, I think this explains why it feels a bit weird playing this class right now. I feel like I'm doing well but my DPS is just not quite there compared to other classes I've tried. I guess I have to be patient and wait until I'm well geared for it to pay off.
I’m a 1413 wardancer engravings lvl 1 eso lvl 3 grudge lvl 3 cursed doll lvl 3 adrenaline lvl 3 keen blunt, and i do 30% less dps than a 1412 artillery and a 1412 sorc. It won’t have the best dps right now but i still love this class and stilling to it all the way. Doesn’t matter if you are the highest dps What matters most is that you love the class you are playing
I'm hoping you will consider remaking some of your older How to guides. You can tell the progression you've made in making videos and this is by far the best one. Hopefully you can remake your old ones in this same format because this was amazing. Thank you
i knew i wasnt crazy when i was starting up esoteric WD. kept thinking to myself "why does it feel like i'm missing something." so far i only have grudge 3 with no class engraving, but at least it still plays the same without it somewhat. (WD is an alt btw)
Hello Albert, First of all thank you for your videos. They really helped me out greatly during the Western release. You think you can maybe make a Video for Scrapper or one of the upcoming classes like Arcana next? I heard Koreans are very impressed with Scrapper performance lately. Has there been some new findings for a new build or something? Keep up the good work.. much love.
Dude you are AWESOME!!!!! Whenever i watch one of your videos, i wanna play that class you are explaining everything very well !! Waiting for sharpshooter and striker videos. Keep up the amazing work bro.
This is a FANTASTIC guide that really highlights why I felt like my Wardancer was MUCH weaker than my Pally in T1 and T2. You mention that you recommend First Intention over Esoteric for new Wardancers, but I assume you mean "for new Wardancers that are in T3 and already have all the engravings/runes they need unlocked". In my (very limited) experience, Esoteric performs MUCH better than First Intention when you are still lacking cooldown/runes/engravings/skill points. Would you agree, or am I missing something here?
Loving your videos bud, keep it up :)!! Stupid question but my energy combustion does not glow red right before its about to pop, is that because of the tripod lvl or what's the matter with that oO?
Wardancer feels terrible to play atm. mana problems, cd problems, low dps. I really hate it. I think I'll just park her in T2 untill we get thoe relic accs, it's a shame because she was my first character but my Blade, Gunslinger and Sorc feel so much better to play
Good job I watched your video. I do have a gunlancer 490 item level and was thinking about my future alt and made a wardancer. Looks like I'm gonna delete her and go for something new player friendly. Any recommendations? Great video, thank you.
Great video and explanation, just recently hit 1370 with my WD, been enjoying it tremendously but still not sure the way get the right tripods etc, what I really should be focusing on.. so you by chance have any written builds to for eso wd?? I did look at the top of the video and didn't see anything, why I figured I'd ask
Ty a lot for the guide!... as a main wd 1350 ilvl grudge 3 fi 3 and ambush 3, i kinda have a love-hate relationship with it. I really like when the support sincs with my buff and the other dpsand myself take advantage of it, but i really dislike the downtime between burst, basic spam and the fact that a random sorc with 30 less ilvl can easily out-dps me. Its a fun class, but frustrating a lot of the time. Idk, i may as well sit her on 1355 and focus on my demonic or sorc to t3 and "main" those till lancemaster.
It definitely feels so bad to play w/o all the endgame stuff. Her design in general is just terrible and the fact that her power comes mostly from t3 items just shows that she needs some kind of revamp for early tiers or even early t3
Really appreciate this video. My wardancer alt feels the most satisfying to play out of all my characters. She'll probably be promoted to main when valtan comes out. I'm running her with first intention right now since I'm lacking pieces (judgment, gems, tripods). Which would you say is highest priority to start working towards for NA/EU?
Great guide.... but if any F2P player wants to main Wardancer as main... don't. Wardancer in T1 and T2 is a joke and I'm not even exaggerating. If your not going to pay up, you will be stuck in T2 and early T3 for a long time and it ain't gonna be a good experience.
Lol stuck in T2 and early T3? A bit exaggerated innit mate? Sure Tier 1 sucks but it's Tier 1, it doesn't matter in the long run. I'm F2P as well and she's felt hell of a lot better/very smooth since late T2 and even early T3 like 1340 she feels pretty darn good at this point, I'm keeping up with my fellow Slinger friend in terms of damage whilst still providing good buffs to the team. I don't suffer from mana issues unless it's an extremely long drawn out fight (happens on Igxreion but not on actual Abyssals with mech checks), and her cooldowns are fine for me. Yes she feels shit early game but so do many classes feel absolute shiet in Tier 1 and Tier 2, and how important and long is Tier 1 and Tier 2 really?
@@edisonsmathsclub5787 late T2 still sucks for wardancer. Koreans even say wardancer sucks until ilevel 1500+ with certain set that comes from region raid. Im at 200 hour and I just got into t3. It was not an ideal time. If someone is brand new at the game Im not going to recommend a class to the guy saying that it will get better after hundreds of hours. Theres a reason why wardancer is one of the least played class in global
Hello Albert, could you please explain what do you mean at the “Roar of Courage” spell description you say that it provides crit rate because it lower the crit resistance. How those both are mutually connected since resistance is not the same with rate? Thank you. Kind regards from Macedonia!
i love this guide .. maybe some time ill create a wardancer :o.. also can you do a guide like this for soulfist aswell ? or you dont have any indepth exp with her ?
This is the best format you've done with your guides, love it. Going through thought process and scenarios is really good to make it understandable. 10/10

Hello Albert,
First of all thank you for your videos. They really helped me out greatly during the Western release. You think you can maybe make a Video for Scrapper or one of the upcoming classes like Arcana next? I heard Koreans are very impressed with Scrapper performance lately. Has there been some new findings for a new build or something?
Keep up the good work.. much love.
very nice guide, now i see why when i tried esoteric i feel so weak compared to first intention
I must be weak. But I feel strong. I love my wardancer. And Lancemaster is going to be my 2nd main when she comes out.
Thanks a lot, this was very helpful!
Yea I heard wardancer was S tier but picked gunslinger instead because I wanted 16 skills instead of 8.

In my (very limited) experience, Esoteric performs MUCH better than First Intention when you are still lacking cooldown/runes/engravings/skill points. Would you agree, or am I missing something here?
been waiting for this
Loving your videos bud, keep it up :)!! Stupid question but my energy combustion does not glow red right before its about to pop, is that because of the tripod lvl or what's the matter with that oO?
Awesome guide! But I just have a little question, does wardancer rely a lot on back attacks?
best guide for our pace in NA
Can confirm wd feels so bad in global servers but I trust kr players when they say shes a hard scaling class
Wardancer feels terrible to play atm. mana problems, cd problems, low dps. I really hate it. I think I'll just park her in T2 untill we get thoe relic accs, it's a shame because she was my first character but my Blade, Gunslinger and Sorc feel so much better to play
THANKS ATK!
loving the guides as usual! would you consider reape-- scrapper next? =)
Thanks for your awesomes videos and your time. Love Battlemaster
@ATK What Valdan set would you recommend for a 1445 FI wardancer?
Good job I watched your video. I do have a gunlancer 490 item level and was thinking about my future alt and made a wardancer. Looks like I'm gonna delete her and go for something new player friendly. Any recommendations? Great video, thank you.
Will you do a striker vid in the future? I would really like to see how my main class will do on later content in the global sv
Great video and explanation, just recently hit 1370 with my WD, been enjoying it tremendously but still not sure the way get the right tripods etc, what I really should be focusing on.. so you by chance have any written builds to for eso wd?? I did look at the top of the video and didn't see anything, why I figured I'd ask
Hope there's a striker one soon. Heard the difference is subtle and would like to know it
Cant wait to be popping off
Great video ATK!, when will you do a video about Striker or Scrapper?
Thanks for the guide.
I saw the Korean outfits and that made me stick with my Wardancer even tho it's a pain to level
Ty a lot for the guide!... as a main wd 1350 ilvl grudge 3 fi 3 and ambush 3, i kinda have a love-hate relationship with it. I really like when the support sincs with my buff and the other dpsand myself take advantage of it, but i really dislike the downtime between burst, basic spam and the fact that a random sorc with 30 less ilvl can easily out-dps me. Its a fun class, but frustrating a lot of the time.
Idk, i may as well sit her on 1355 and focus on my demonic or sorc to t3 and "main" those till lancemaster.
It definitely feels so bad to play w/o all the endgame stuff. Her design in general is just terrible and the fact that her power comes mostly from t3 items just shows that she needs some kind of revamp for early tiers or even early t3
Yeah the all dps are equal is such a bullshit
@@inocybe91 the game is balanced pretty well at 1485 or so ilvl
@@owtgaming2993 Being balanced for 1% of the population and after 3-4 months of playing the char isn't a well designed balance(in my opinion)
Love these videos man
I think that this doesn't feel up to date? Wind's of whisper no longer grants Crit rate or am I wrong?
Really appreciate this video. My wardancer alt feels the most satisfying to play out of all my characters. She'll probably be promoted to main when valtan comes out.
I'm running her with first intention right now since I'm lacking pieces (judgment, gems, tripods). Which would you say is highest priority to start working towards for NA/EU?
Great guide.... but if any F2P player wants to main Wardancer as main... don't. Wardancer in T1 and T2 is a joke and I'm not even exaggerating. If your not going to pay up, you will be stuck in T2 and early T3 for a long time and it ain't gonna be a good experience.
Lol stuck in T2 and early T3? A bit exaggerated innit mate? Sure Tier 1 sucks but it's Tier 1, it doesn't matter in the long run. I'm F2P as well and she's felt hell of a lot better/very smooth since late T2 and even early T3 like 1340 she feels pretty darn good at this point, I'm keeping up with my fellow Slinger friend in terms of damage whilst still providing good buffs to the team. I don't suffer from mana issues unless it's an extremely long drawn out fight (happens on Igxreion but not on actual Abyssals with mech checks), and her cooldowns are fine for me. Yes she feels shit early game but so do many classes feel absolute shiet in Tier 1 and Tier 2, and how important and long is Tier 1 and Tier 2 really?
@@edisonsmathsclub5787 may i ask what is your build? FI or Eso
@@edisonsmathsclub5787 late T2 still sucks for wardancer. Koreans even say wardancer sucks until ilevel 1500+ with certain set that comes from region raid.
Im at 200 hour and I just got into t3. It was not an ideal time. If someone is brand new at the game Im not going to recommend a class to the guy saying that it will get better after hundreds of hours.
Theres a reason why wardancer is one of the least played class in global
What a great guide! Could you do one on Striker?
Hello Albert, could you please explain what do you mean at the “Roar of Courage” spell description you say that it provides crit rate because it lower the crit resistance. How those both are mutually connected since resistance is not the same with rate? Thank you. Kind regards from Macedonia!
As usual Albert insane with his content!
Crazy vid bro. Worth infinite gold and more!
Thank you man!
Are more classes comming too?
i love this guide .. maybe some time ill create a wardancer :o.. also can you do a guide like this for soulfist aswell ? or you dont have any indepth exp with her ?
