Upgrade Paths Recommendation Thread [STICKY]
Mrmorrises Platinum Sparx Gems: 7014
#1851 Posted: 18:37:04 08/10/2012
My upgrade path recomendations for Magic and Tech element. Mostly for pvp.

Spyro: I prefer sheep burner. The daybringer flame is also Spyro's best option for a ranged attack.

Voodood: Marauder earns my recomendations for the godly melee damage outpuft and some pretty neat combos(Mostly magic axe)

Double Trouble: You've heard it at least 300 times so why not hear it again? Take the channeler path.

Wrecking ball: ULTIMATE SPINNER!!!! No contest. The giant forcefield ball is awesome!

Drill Sergant: megadozer is the way to go. Infinite ammo for the auto blaster makes DS quite formidable on top of having a very nice bulldoze charge smilie

Trigger Happy: I prefer golden frenzy for it's bouncing bullets(Best upgrade on that path IMO)

Drobot: Go master Blaster. People may advise you in general to not go down the path that makes them a "One trick pony" but just because they're a one tricky pony does NOT mean they are bad at it.

Boomer: Demolition troll, the triple dynamite plus SIX stronger troll bombs makes this guy very formidable.

Let me know which ones you agree or disagree with.

Spyro: Blitz Dragon is the path u gotta go down because i never used the daybringer flame ever plus its slow with little damage (40 i think but triggs yamato blast is fast and does 160)and it only gave me the fire shield while the dash on blitz went from 10 to 45

Voodood: Marauder is the right path because the tripwires arent the best attacks

Double Trouble: GO DOWN CHANNELER ITS SO OVERPOWERED for long range (extended beam that does 20 every second) and close (magic bomb repeated twice that does 65 damage per bomb)its better.

Wrecking Ball: i dont know ive never played as him

Drill Sarge:Battle Dozer because of the homing rockets

Drobot: ive been on both paths and master blaster is better because like 5 lasers hit u per second and it does more damage which adds up. i only picked the clockwork path because i thought the bladegears would do 42 damage but it only does 28 (23 on masta blasta)and its slow

Boomer: Demolition Troll the troll bombs make him strong better ranged (same with the bombs) and its harder to get to him

Triggs: Golden Money Bags, ive had him on both paths and it takes way to long to Destroy an enemy and the bouncing bullets don't even do that much

I would recommend all of those except for Flameslinger. I prefer the excellent hit and run skills given to him on pyromancer, the more fire you have on the field the better. This helps Flameslinger at what he is best at, hit and run.
Bean Sprout Blue Sparx Gems: 893
#1859 Posted: 03:30:16 12/10/2012
I agree with Pyromancer. The field affects it gives outclass the upgrades to the projectiles.

#1860 Posted: 00:52:53 15/10/2012
Alright here are my new recomendations for the Earth element tell me which of these you agree or disagree with.

Bash: Either path is very good, both have their pros and cons.

Terrafin: Sandhog. It's so cheap, the way he can damage his enemy underground. Fighting him in player vs player is sooooo frustrating as well.

Dino Rang: Both are good, I prefer Earthen avenger. The boomerangs are still decent on it and the quad stonefist traps are much more useful than they seem. And extra armor never hurts.

Prism Break: Crystaleer is the way to go. The beam is still pretty good on it, the enhanced crystal eruption helps you with rushing melee attackers, extra armor is awesome, and the triple crystals are quite useful.
Bean Sprout Blue Sparx Gems: 893
#1861 Posted: 00:54:30 15/10/2012
I would say Grand Boomerang master on Dino Rang. The Boomerang shield does 40 damage a swipe, and it does 2-4 swipes each attack. And it is easier to use than to try to plan out the stonefist traps.

but the supernova isnt even that good plus if somebody is close to u then ur dead
this is for smilie

earth recommendations are
bash-granite dragon is easily the better path
dino-rang i dont have him but from wat ive been hearing i think grand master boomerang is the better path
prism break-crystaleer ive had a lot of experience with him and crystaleer is better
terrafin-i havent tried his other path yet cause i got him recently but i like brawler i just hate how the underground thing is a bit too slow

As if you weren't doomed if anyone got close to you on Marksman. And this is just if your fighting a melee character.

Floral Defender. The Cacti do great damage, and the mortar or life combined with the MIRV mortar can leave four cacti per mortar shot. IT is great defensively, but the damage the cacti do makes it an offensive contender as well.

Quote: Hazard335
Since any maxed out Skylander on either path can go threw Story Mode with ease, I chose to go the path that's best in PVP.
(I only ever played on the 360)


Spyro - Blitz Spyro [same for Dark and Legendary] (Stun Charge is very useful, Daybringer Flame is useless)
Voodood - Marauder (the most underrated path in the game, mainly because it takes a little practice to master using the Zipline)
Wrecking Ball - Ultimate Spinner (it's difficult to control where the Force Field Ball goes, but the Tongue Whap is completely useless)
Double Trouble - Channeler (best Magic Skylander, this path should be the obvious choice to everyone who has tried it)

Drobot - Master Blaster (best Tech Skylander, capable of very fast amounts of high damage)
Trigger Happy - Golden Money Bags [same for Legendary] (better then the other path by a good amount more then people think, Golden Yamato Blast is completely useless, Golden Pistols hardly suffer in the trade off, and the mines that spawn when your coin toss lands on heads are pretty useful)
Boomer - Demolition Troll (its hard to even get near him with his 6 Troll Bombs and 3 Dynamite Sticks)
Drill Sergeant - Megadozer (very fast and underrated, best when continuously using all attacks at once, and grazing opponents instead of ramming them head on and coming to a dead stop)

Bash - Granite Dragon [same for Legendary] (Gaia Hammer is extremely powerful to the point where your opponent will be scared to approach you)
Terrafin - Sandhog (best Earth Skylander, being immune to damage underground makes this path so cheap)
Prism Break - Crystaleer (Crystalline Armor is very helpful, while the Energy Beam just sucks no matter what path your on)
Dino-Rang - Grand Boomerang Master (another underrated path, his Boomerangs are extremely useful)

Whirlwind - Tempest Dragon (Tempest Matrix is very useful)
Sonic Boom - Medea Griffin (best Air Skylander, her babies are extremely useful, and her Roar hardly suffers in the trade off)
Lightning Rod - Lord of the Lightning (this makes him good at a distance, his Cloud Zapper Satellites just don't do much of anything for him)
Warnado - Eye of the Storm (best when continuously using all attacks at once)

Sunburn - Flame Lord (Immolation Teleport is obviously useful in a lot of ways, when Flamethrower Breath is useless unless you have time to charge it up, which then makes him pretty much immobile)
Ignitor - Soul of the Flame (best Fire Skylander, Flame Form with the Incinerate Explosion and Flame Mortars is extremely effective)
Flameslinger - Pyromancer (almost impossible to get near, and Napalm Tipped Arrows give him more strategy)
Eruptor - Volcanor (makes him impossible to approach)

Zap - Slime Serpent (automatically electrified Sea Slime is very useful)
Gill Grunt - Water Weaver (best when continuously using all attacks at once, he can put out much more damage on this path)
Slam Bam - Blizzard Brawler (Ice Prisons are useless on either path, when his Brawler Combos are awesome)
Wham-Shell - Captain Crustacean (best Water Skylander, his Malacostracan Mace can really deal out the damage in a wide area, when Starfish Bullets just cant on either path)

Camo - Vine Virtuoso (Melon Fountain might be good for defense, but it is just to easy to avoid the flying melons)
Stealth Elf - Pook Blade Saint (best Life Skylander, very quick, capable of crazy damage with Shadowsbane Blades, and Sylvan Regeneration is helpful)
Stump Smash - Nut Crafter (Meganut Propagation is very useful, and the ability to slow down opponents with Pollen Plume is helpful)
Zook - Floral Defender (great coverage of Cacti that knock opponents back as well as damage them)

Cynder - Nether Welder (best Undead Skylander, Spectral Lightning can go right threw most walls and cover a wide area, while Shadow Dash is still good for playing keep away)
Ghost Roaster - Skull Master (Ectoplasm Mode just makes him to slow, while Skull Charge is a very fast, high damaging attack that can hit multiple times in a single charge)
Chop Chop - Undead Defender [same for Legendary] (the Arkeyan Shield allows you to get close to opponents while blocking attacks, and when your there the Shield Stun Bash used continuously is your best attack)
Hex - Bone Crafter (being able to hide behind your damaging Wall of Bones while charging up Troll Skulls will deal out very high damage quite easily)



just got done editing in allot more details to my PVP Path list, for everyone out there that's still looking for path recommendations smilie

no way Siren is better then Medea.

expanding roar is almost useless, and who has time to charge up the roar?
thats 2 pretty mush useless upgrades.

when on Medea, babies that hatch fully grown are invaluable.
and you get an extra baby.
the damage they do adds up super fast, and babies are just an overall pain for your opponent.

Well I will help you with the ones I have! smilie
Stealth Elf- Pook Blade Saint seems the obvious choice, HOWEVER (and I have not tried this yet, but) Forest Ninja seems to be great in Story Mode! Probably not as much in PvP (unless you're playing a newbie!) So for PvP, Pook Blade Saint, and for story mode, just try out Forest Ninja! OH, and I chose Pyromancer for Flameslinger, and it is just AWESOME! I love it! Especially the "Napalm Tipped Arrows!" For Stump Smash I chose Nut Crafter, easy! No contest whatsoever.

Drobot - Not going to lie, Master Blaster is a good idea.
Trigger Happy - Try the Golden Moneybags. They're pretty strong, especially in Battle Mode.
Gill Grunt - I'd say Harpooner, but then I'd be lying. Go for the Water Weaver path.

This is what I did for my characters:

Trigger Happy - Golden Money Bags (I find the throwing an enormous coin then it shattering into more coins brilliant!)
Drill Sergeant - Either one (Drill Sergeant is my least favorite skylander out of everyone)
Sprocket - Operator (I find the other path to be horrible. This one lets you upgrade your wrench and perform awesome combos)

Gill Grunt - Water Weaver (It's awesome to never run out of water. Face it)
Zap - Tesla Dragon
Chill - Ice Lancer
Thumpback - Anchor's A-Yay!
Slam Bam - Blizzard Brawler
---
Eruptor - I chose Magmantor. DON'T DO IT VOLCANOR IS MUCH BETTER
Hot Dog - Pyro Pooch I believe (A shooter, with combos? FABULOUS)
Ignitor - Blademaster
Hot Head - Either one. I think both are great
---
Warnado - Wind Master
Whirlwind - Tempest Dragon
Lightning Rod - Typhoon Titan (And it's much better than Lightning Lord in my opinion)
Jet-Vac - Bird Blaster (He's horrible either way)
Swarm - Barberous Avenger
---
Stealth Elf - Pook Blade Saint (WOW, these names are original)
Zook - Floral Defender (So cool to just stand behind the cacti and just rapidly launch mortars with the target lock. You're like invincible)
Camo - Melon Master (I love the melon fortress)
Stump Smash - Smash N' Bash (Both are cool)
Shroomboom - Barrier Boost (Paratrooper Promotion is horrible in my opinion)
Tree Rex - Treefolk Dasher or Lumbering Laserer (Doesn't matter)
---
Hex - Bone Crafter
Chop Chop - Undead Defender
Fright Rider - Sir Lance-A-Lot
Eye-Brawl - Punchy path
---
Spyro - Blitz Spyro
Wrecking Ball - Ultimate Spinner
Double Trouble - Channeler
Pop Fizz - Mad Scientist all the way
Ninjini - Swords of Might
---
Terrafin - Brawler
Prism Break - Crystaleer (The top path)
Dino-Rang - Grandmaster Boomerang
Flashwing - Super Shards
Crusher - Crusher's Crusher path

lightning rod on typhooon titan path is underrated. why people prefer lightning lord i dont know lightning rod is far more versatile
on the typhoon titan path it makes zapper field godly lightning lord has a key weakness that cant be ignored if its attacked the lightning summoning stops.that being said lightning lord is still pretty good

for sonic boom, go with Medea Path. it's a lot stronger than the other one, you can use the eggs as a short-range projectile that deals 80 damage, and the baby are a lot stronger

I disagree . Shade Master Hex dishes out good damage per second . This is a fast game for charge up powers.

If you have a skylander player 2 partner your bonecrafter is useless because your friend has killed them all by the time you release the skull rain and your bone wall annoys them .

Too late, my friend, choice has been already done smilie

Anyway, I don't play the game cooperatively (didn't even knew it was possible), and in such a case I could simply choose anothe character, I think...
Also I have to say that I'm quite satisfied by the choice. It's still slow, that's true, even after having purchased the speed-up in the charge for the Rain, but after all I have a very different character now. Choosing the shooting path, wouldn't I had just another gunslinger..?

Ofcourse, to be sure on which path I would prefer, I should try both of them, but as for now I don't regret this choice.

Once more, thank you very much for your constant help! smilie

No problems. In the end its preference . I actually at first made bonecrafter Hex but I reset her for Shade Master because of those reasons i mentioned . I only play the console game with my little brother .

Yes if you get bored or curious you can always reset and try the other path .
At higher levels with accolade bonuses yadda yadda . You need just an hour for a reset Skylander to get most of their powers and levels back .

Coop is always fun then there is also Player vs Player mode .
