Basic Dexxer
A straightforward Chivalry-based melee build with strong sustain, flexible weapon choices, and reliable PvM performance.
Overview
The Basic Dexxer is a simple and reliable melee template built around Chivalry, weapon damage, and strong self-sustain.
It can be adapted to several different weapon styles, making it a good starting point for players who want a traditional melee character without committing to a highly specialized setup.
Aspect Options
Recommended Aspect options include:
- Water
- Earth
- Fire

Equipment
- Grinding Light weapon and Shield
- Grinding Medium weapon

A shield provides high armor while a two-handed weapon can be used when additional damage is preferred.
Farming/Gameplay
Use your weapon to deal consistent melee damage while Chivalry and bandages provide sustain.
A shield setup provides additional armor and defense, while a two-handed weapon trades some defense for increased damage.
Additional Notes
The recommended starting skills are 50 Weapon Skill, 49 Tactics, and 1 Chivalry.
Training Credits can be used for 50 Healing and 50 Parrying.
Dexxers can be slower to develop than some other builds, but become much stronger as equipment and Codex investment improve.
Prioritize accuracy and swing speed. Chivalry’s Divine Fury is particularly useful for reaching swing speed goals.
