yes, so? run it, its insane
u have to look behind u lmao, musket is supposed to be a no con sniper build
also, u should be running 300 dex 150 int at LEAST, get that extra elemental dmg and run a nature, lightning, or arcane gem.

Nature best. It’s almost as invisible as lightning, has probably nobody running resistances against it in pvp and it deals extra damage to Baron so some great steal possibility
Musket is actually the weakest weapon in the game. There is a reason why in wars companies slot maybe 2 max if they slot any at all. Literally the only thing musket can do is consistently hurt people from very far away, but players who make threads like these also never press their shift key and walk in a straight line.

Using war to judge a weapon is kind of skewed ya know? Most people dont get into wars. most pvpers play opr and 3v3. In 3v3 its kind meh. In OPR its god tier. Every opr is muskets with 20+ kills sitting safe 100m away kill stealing.
Have you ever played an OPR where those war companies make 5 mans and end up on one team and suddenly all those musket players are totally useless because of the presence of healers and players that know what they’re doing and are playing the objective?
Musket is literally only good at one thing and that’s hitting people from 100 meters away in large open areas where players are not organized and there are no healers around. Musket only works because it kills unorganized, unaware players.
You know if musket came out this year rather than on launch it would be way different; shooters stance would be machine gun stance, bear trap would hit people for 3-4k dmg if they step on it AND get rooted, stopping power would be a lazer beam that goes through people.
Sound like any other weapon that came out a few months ago? lol

Thats true of literally any weapon against premades.
Thats an entirely different convo.
Have you ever played against a premade full of muskets all shooting the same person? They literally delete people.
Yes that’s really annoying but once again that only works against players playing improperly because the musket can’t shoot you through the fort and basically if someone throws a green circle on the ground and you press shift a few times while standing in it, it effectively nullifies most of that damage anyway.

I mean yea sure. But they are still oppresive af and have no counter other than another musket. Its depressing. Also, youre considering people that actually care about winning opr. I think people have stopped caring about that months ago. Alot of folks go to opr just to solo pick people off and not contribute to the group.
At least when people complain about bow being OP, they provide a video proof- showing what they were wearing and how much they got hit for… Almost every musket, ice gauntlet, and fire staff post about being OP always have overexaggerated numbers with zero video proof.
Please do not nerf muskets, it’s really, really unnecessary.

Could you share what perks are needed for max musket damage, or is this a closely held secret only shared in clandestine musket communities?
Picked up FS/IG recently, after discovering I have a pretty good set for it.
Gotta say, it’s so much freaking stronger than muskets. Large AOE to slow, freeze players off you, a no brain ability that hurts (fire ball), a movement ability that hurts and increases the hit of your next fire attack, and a grit ability that can hit 3k-5k, and pushes players back. Also can’t forget a turret that you can place, that literally just shoots players (so entertaining seeing it get a kill on someone trying to evade me).
Never even took ice tomb…a get out of jail free card. Armor also wasn’t even fully optimized for pvp. Most pieces were the con things off the pvp track, a couple pieces that I use for my musket set, and a couple that came out of OPR caches. Fire staff from OPR, and crystaline curse.
No where near optimized, and feels so much better than musket. In light…with 150 con, 3 resil pieces, and only 1 eversion, elemental eversion at that. Also only slotted 3 emerald gems.
Never even died to a musket once. Bows? Yes…muskets…no. Despite being shot at by some, I actually know the shift key exists and I know how to push S and D on my keyboard.
Also funnily enough, I’m at 10/10 for 3s that I’ve done with the FS/IG set…me solo queing…
Also got multiple kills vs musket players, via sneaking up behind them and dropping ice storm and unleashing abilites.
Legit, ima say it again, if you’re dying to a musket over and over…get good.

Musket has been the worst weapon since release, and everyone agreed on this.
Only worth to be used by the right hands.
Now, without any buffs, people is asking for a nerf. Insane.

The right hands is code for “aim botter”. 
Lmao he said 8k
The problem here is not the musket itself, but the players who use Aimbot and don’t even try to hide it.
There are entire guilds in Abaton using aimbot and getting away with it, it is clear when a player uses aimbot from the one who doesn’t, amazon should take action against these players urgently,
