These builds look normal, very effective and definitely meta, but i don't really think you can do much for your team as Captain Taka. He doesn't have any CC in his kit at all, the only thing he really can do to benefit his team is apply mortal wound. It's very innovative, no doubt about it, but just trying to give my opinion.
Thank you for your feedback, as the title says I was at one point trying to update this to 3.3, and obviously that is a long gone effort.
However, you do raise good points without the usual "u suk, git gud" I normally see and I honestly apprreciate seeing someone who can make a point without that mess. Yeah, Captain Taka is more for fun test or display of skill than a really effective build path. Expoect everything here to be scrapped soon though as the meta has long shiftged and my guide revolves around VG patch 2.5 or something like tat.
Yes! A WP Taka lover, thank the heavens. Sooo I have one question for you, in my usual builds I tend to rush Sorrowblade and literally never build TB. As for why, 1)You benefit more from raw weapon power and SB does more in my kiting playstyle. 2)Your passive doesn't appear to benefit much from TB. I'm just wondering what your thoughts on this were. I've played Taka since before Fortress was released and only played him CP like 3 times. Thx!
Ah, I see you are a fellow WP Taka lover as well. Your guide is uber long but it is very detailed and I did not even knew about some tactics! Though most of them, I always do but I thought I was just playing regularly, while those are actually "takatics". I am quite pleased. Our playstyles differ but I see why you use such playstyle as you succeeded in explaining completely! Nice!. Please also do check out my Taka guide because I would like to know how a pro Taka player rate my guide! Hope to see your comment in my guide soon.
This build is AWESOME. Havnt seen a good updated Taka build in a while. I love to play wp Taka but everyone says it sucks. This build proves them wrong. Although there is no bp I can realize why cuz it's only good for early game and damage will fall off late game so it a dead weapon @Slint***asnNinja
Hmm...
Tension Bow is for burst, and the armor pierce.
Breaking Point is for prolonged engagements where you are the main center of attention and are usually snowballing.
This let's you build up stacks.
TB let's you do hit and run and also have enough damage and pierce to fight if you need to switch targets.
Hey m8, awesome guide, I love taka as well. I love building carries with no defense, and I've even been successful with a full wp vox (best was 17/1). But I couldn't really do it with taka, Any advice?
Hey, i just read your guide, actually i prefer sniper but idk i am interested to play with taka and be pro with that. And one question for you, wp taka or cp taka that very effective for newbie like me. My username id is Neroxe btw if u want to play together :D
I don't know if I'm weird but I am only good with WP Taka that has Alternating Current as the only CP item. I simply stealth and kill in 3 sec. With CP, but X-retsu does not deal enough damage until I am tanked out of my skill by reflex block and then my basic attack feels like nothing. Just my opinion, I hope you do not underestimate WP Taka as WP Taka's basic attack hurt as much as Kestrel's Glimmershot or Petal's munion explosion ULT.

Building him no defense is when you are snowballing against a Ringo, Celeste, and SAW/Vox or ranged comp without Kestrel.
Without defense, Taka literally lives on the knifes edge, and requires his old set up of crit and lifesteal.
PS sorry for late reply
WP is also much harder since you need Kaitem to dodge debuffs otherwise you are dead.
But I'm mainly talking about ranked, lol.
