Musket is not under powered by any means. I’d gladly duel any class with any armor set and be shocked if I lost.
Really nice…
Medium for OPR or all the way medium even for skirmishes?
I have a light PvP setup for open world.
Wars/OPR I’ll run heavy chest, heavy helm, medium gloves, medium boots, light legs (Medium setup)

Hey.
Thanks for the vid
Would like to hear your thoughts on musket, noticed you tried many builds throughout the vid and you seem experienced
-
Masteries, which do you consider over / under valued
-
Elemental gems on musket over rally?
-
Have you tried running burning / thrust ring?
-
Have you tried 200dex/250 int glass?
-
Thoughts on nimble? (Replacing ill-gotten gains)
You’re fun to fight against on El Dorado
Cheers,

Nice video. It was fun to watch. You have 500 attribute points I notice. I currently only have about 433. With 600 GS I think you still have only about 450, right? How do you get to 500? Is my math wrong, or are you using the +40 food?
thanks a lot appreciate it
Here are the masteries I’ve settled on after trying everything out.
Rally is great if you don’t get hit at all, like if you camp up on the rocks as your playstyle. Personally I’m always in the middle of everything so my health is rarely ever full. Especially once the fight starts. Get hit once and your gem becomes useless. I choose lightning gem because it doesn’t leave a tracer behind so enemies have a hard time figuring out where you are at first.
I’ve used thrust and burning. Burning is a must have. If I didn’t have a super nice ring already, I’d get one with +fire damage +burning and run a ruby. This would amplify the sticky bomb, regular shots, and the burning damage.
Thrust is usually negated with onyx gems.
I personally run full emeralds in my PvP setup because most of the time I’m battling other ranged.
I have tried the 250 int for extra burning duration, but it’s not worth it. 300dex/150int is the way to go for the dodge crit + more base damage.
Nimble is a must have as well.

If you don’t lose enough, maybe the musket/rapier combo is too powerful?
600 gs I can get 300 dex, 155 int, 50 con with food.
You start off with 5 in each category and the food gives +40 attributes.
+295 dex, +150 int, +45 con. This is 490 points which is the max you can get with food.
If I lose it’s because I misplayed or get too aggressive. If I prioritize keeping distance and not get into a melee battle too early it’s hard to lose.
If I get jumped/surprised and lose my positioning I will lose some fights without having range advantage.
Interesting, will have to try that. Played the 250 int build but the base damage buit as you said, gauranteed crit on dex was too good not to have
Personally I hate sticky bomb cuz it’s so clunky but your combo looks fun, will try it, maybe with 2 traps.
Hopefully Musket gets some TLC, lots of dead mastery choices… Power Shot, Greater accuracy, energy burst, ugh.
If you play the super passive game only pushing after you’ve chipped them down, full glass is doable, just make everything a rail gun fight while they try and LG you 
I recommend trying Empowered amulet + empowered shooters stance on a cripped powderburned target… Blow people up before they even get to you, IDC how many hearty-iframe-dodges they have
Cheers
Have you tried 300dex 150con?
you need the 150 int for the elemental damage buff.
50 con is plenty enough to survive for so long.
here, take a look lol:

Well that’s broken. I wonder why people don’t flag for pvp. There’s zero counter play against those 2 weapons.
the riposte into trap one shot is nasty but if people swing their weapon the musket probably wont hit the shots.

or just duck.
I prefer to riposte, trap, sticky bomb, head shot, boom, body shot, swap, fletch. Rinse and repeat.
Awesome moves my man. I only wish everyone on our server had 5k hp like many of those targets seemed to have 
That’s not a dig. Just insane how low hitpoints so many of those players were. If I hit a couple big crits on most targets I face every day in OPR I’ll be fortunate to see them lose 50%. Even light armour targets.
Really enjoyed watching your riposte->trap->sticky routine. That was hilarious. And some of your longer range stickies were glorious.

50 con!!! Why is a tank class even a thing in pvp?
Is the burning perk works with the powder burn too? Im not sure if it counts as burning damage.
Same lol, thats my problem too. Everytime I see videos like this Im like lets go play some opr… And then I see how low and insignificant my dmg to 200cont tryhards even light users facetanking me…
