Hello, Im Noir and I play most, if not all of the supportive classes in Helheim. Despite these classes needing a low amount of investment gearing them, I tend to gear my characters competitively enough, to either DPS or OFF-Tank for custom party content (i.e. Purgatory, GA, Fortessa Dungeons). Overview: Nightwatch is the 4th job class upgrade for Rebellion. A range DPS class that offers different type of playstyle depending on the weapon of your choice. This class can be played as DPS, a support-slave and even as a tank. This guide is made with custom end-game party content in mind and will focus on 4th job skills, and some utility skills that are available to the class, pre-4th job. Pros: Versatility in Playstyle because of multiple types of weapon that are available for Nightwatch and their skill set. Can be an effective DPS if geared properly. Easier to join parties because of your 'Anti-Material Blast'. A good farmer outside custom content. No Weapon-Size Penalty Viability as a tank / off-tank. Cons: Low base Health. Ability usage restriction base on equipped weapon. Expensive to gear if you want to be an effective DPS in parties, as meta classes deals twice(or more) damage than you with the same gears/equipments.

AMB (Anti-Material Blast) have a 70% chance to increase the damage the target receives from demi-human sources(all players except Doram Classes). This build is the cheapest to make as you are only required to have 100% VCT Reduction(can be obtained thru status points or equipments) and 1.0s FCT Reduction to cast 'Anti-Material Blast' without interruption. From this basic build, you can opt to transition to a Tank or DPS. Another option is increasing the 'utility' you offer to the party by compounding a Kraken Card(gives Hide+Raid skill) on your garment, and resurrecting dead party members during custom party content. Anti-Material Blast Equipment: Full VCT Reduction from Stats Full VCT Reduction from Equipment Other Notable Skills: ───✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──── [B.] Tank I consider this build as an extension of my AMB-Slave Nightwatch. Depending on the custom content you are doing, Nightwatch can also be an effective tank because of their 'Platinum Alter Skill'. Platinum Alter creates a health shield based on the user's maximum HP. This ability have 0s CD and 0 ACD and is spammable as it only requires at least 1 coin to gain the 25% HP shield (Rich coin is not necessary to spam this ability, using Flip Coin for that 1 coin cast requirement is enough). The only downside of this class as a tank is that you don't have a natural healing skill, which makes it expensive to sustain during runs. Your goal with this build is to stack damage resistance(size, racial, property), elemental resistance(Deviling, Khades), RES and MRES, DEF AND MDEF. After that regeneration and healing would be a nice addition to make this build more effective. As a tank in custom content, you should be aware of how much you are able to tank, being overconfident can sometimes result to multiple party wipes.

Its cooldown is half of the Rebellion's Round Trip making it more spammable while dealing higher amount of damage. Can be used with Gatling Gun(Weaker damage, Larger AoE, built-in Defense penetration) or Shotgun(Stronger Damage, Smaller AoE). The Vigilante At Night Equipment ───✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──── [D.] Crit-Rifle NW This build focuses on the crit modifier for both Only One Bullet and Spiral Shooting, as both skills has a chance to deal critical damage when a Rifle weapon is equipped. For this build, you should be able to cast 3 Only One Bullet (with 0.30s Cooldown) and 2 Spiral Shooting (with 0.50s Cooldown), provided you have the the necessary ACD reduction and low ping / latency. Quickcharge Only One Bullet + Spiral Shooting Only One Bullet Spiral Shooting Equipment: ───✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──── [E.] Crit-Pistol NW Magazine for One Equipment: ───✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──────────────✧❁✧──── [F.] Grenade DPS ( + Auto Grenade DPS ) Basic Grenade Hasty Fire in the Hole Grenade Dropping Auto-Firing Launcher Wild Fire and Spiral Shooting with Grenade Launcher (Weapon) Although both skills can be used with a Grenade Launcher (Weapon), be wary of the amount of skill points you have if you want to invest on this skills.
