What is the most OP build in game right now ?

Personally, I don't think CoC is op.
It is squishy, and can kill itself to Reflect if not careful.

And people overestimate how many Spells are fired and how much Damage they deal.. >_<

In comparison, Mjolner makes a CoC build look like nerfed-Cleave. :P

I think that the most OP build is currently one by Ghudda.

Attacking the server is more powerful than attacking mobs.

Other than the fact that the builds are entirely different. Flubby version is the cheap version for most people. Fyndel is for if your items don't suck.

That was my understanding of it too.

Besides that... I clicked on Flubby's thread to get a look at low life builds and compare them and his guide (I'm pretty sure it was that) gave me aids.

CoC is not OP at all.

There is a vast difference between decent builds, powerful builds, insane clearspeed builds and then OP builds.

To give an example of each tier in that order: RF builds, Elemental buzzsaw, critical splitarrow and CoE + lowlife buzzsaw/wanders.

Currently that last combo outshines pretty much everything by a wide margin. It's not exactly a specific build though(there is many variations).

This is if you don't put any thought into how you do your CoC.
My CoC build is completely immune to reflect, to the point where i can go full dps on a reflect mob inside of a reflect map with -max resists, while also effectively outdamaging mjolner users.
Lightning thorns is all you have to really worry about, and the squishiness goes away.

Nothing comes close to the Fyndel build in terms of overall clear speed/ survivability/ reflect/ uber atziri capability. That being said there are still lots of builds that are perfectly viable. I have been having tons of fun with Mjolner lately. It's not as good overall as my low life spectral throw, but it's way more enjoyable :D

My opinion:
Tier 1


1)Low life crit spectral throw

2)Low life crit wanders


Tier 2


1)cast on crit/mjolner

2)Aegis Aurora builds(it's a clasic,but it's a proven OP build.First lv100 on invasion was a fairly cheap aegis build+It was the FIRST melee in ALL leagues to hit level 100.Not to mention Gellig's aegis build is able to go AFK on atziri,palace dominus and creamtorium)


Tier 3


1)Crit Split Arrow/lightning arrow builds(used to be tier one,but ST,wanders,and cast on crit builds do what it does,but better,both survivability wise and clear speed)

2)CI crit melee(after VP nerf it's crap without acuity.With acuity it's still pretty powerfull,but being melee without block in a game with so much desyng/lag,makes it fairly unsafe to be higher on the list)


Now there are other rising builds like arc,flameblast and detonate dead,but i do not have much experience with them to rate them.And finally :


crap tier


1)Dual weild melee builds
2)2 handed melee builds

one version of those build been made using rmt.

Most op build those days is 3 dragon icewall.

flameblast / detonate dead

can be t1 but the damage doesnt scale as high as the critspecs do.

advantage:
between 1 and 5 actions to kill multiple screens of monsters (+ necros / fractured / 2-phase monsters / incoming monsters after damage took place)

disadvantage:
less peak damage
damage over time
