no cap
has decent counter damage, reduces 4 cd and resets cd if you block something with it so it's always up when tanking
like, for the kaari lord spin i can 1-rmb-rmb-1-rmb-rmb-1
feels great
Whats this blade strike propaganda
i am not sponsored by bdx i swear
i've been using blue blade strike since day 2 of moonwater patch and switched to purple recently
I mean, i use it bc i was gigabroke and was chep hm back then but π€π€
Time to invest in purp
Huh
Tho firsy you need a 4 purp so u can really care about it i think
Blade strike is amazing π
Legendary Stone Slash and Blade Strike would be nice
speaking of, what would the reasonable price for a purple stone slash be
i aint paying 8k for a few seconds of a tiny crit increase bro π
But with blade strik would be more π
i feel like 4k is still alot smh
im guessing it's only this expensive because it's shared with puncture and hs users
legendary searing would be lit
I mean, stone slash is used for anything if mob doesnt move and u dont nees bd
Cause well, more dps
5% crit rate is a lot
Ye. And with blade strike cdr can be very good
are you still on about my lmb
Wts Purple Stone Slash for 10k - NA
didnt you get something nice for lvl 50
no
what was your 50 and bp
i got multislash / cyclone

2 seperate builds
who is everyone
the other one is flash step
im starting my gabler arc
How hard could it be to release arena and once you're in lobby you can select any build without needing books. Take note ncsoft, revive pvp
wym?
i already have it from lv 50
getting 2 bound ones is pointless
i have a feeling that my alt will get something good
on lvl 50
and ill need to trade all the gear
but still more 2 levels to go
I didn't get a good skill after reaching lv50, didn't get a good one on last BP, didn't get a good one this BP
spam cs
i am
using 30 pots
im getting 52 tonight
kaari alone gives more exp than poh
and training groups taking too long
what was the tipping point
give me ur punc mister
hes cap

just about anything could be the tipping point in this game xd
i sold them
π«‘
to that guy
π«‘
broooo where are the NA Sunstroke sellerssssss
why did you quit
why not
Someone send me a purple pierce pls ty
How many?
combination of no events, all content just being target dummies with no mechanics, disgusting approach to game design (why can only the top 5% clear the content?) and layered RNG just being far too awful
One is enough I'm not greedy
I didn't hit a purple box transmute in 45 attempts then saw a certain someone get 45k + 8k books from 6 attempts
that's healthy i think
all valid reasons
understandable
game just has no future and unfortunate NC don't seem to care
Damn its ill's fault
that's why i took his money
Always has been
farmed BSH for 6+ hrs a day
for 2 green books per run
i'm glad only the top 5% of players can clear that content
it's really worth it
π
Itβs just the same as poh or chef
idk how many bsh runs i did and didnt get a single cr cd piece yet
spenders hate the content
it's boring
Sadly it looks like it will be like this until Silverfrost
The loot is horrendous
no events is just literally wtf
events in live would let you get a decent amount of progression from the rewards
suddenly for neo they lost the ability to do them?
the few "events" if you can even call them that, that neo has gotten, have been completely off-game
π ±οΈruh
i think you take the ap at this point
Probably temporary
huh it really is
most broken player
i was there like 20 mins ago
@north burrow i would have at least waited until next weeks news
what news
we haven't had news about anything ever
we're 2 months into the game
and our only event
has been to run dungeons 3 times
for some green card boxes

oh and the pvp one i guess
which was also awful
gotta believe
well
EU is still being ddos'ed
after 6 weeks
i already had 0 expectations for this company
and they somehow delivered even lower
Anyways
Cyclone or Vortex for bd pierce?
Vortex is amazin for bd but i feel like with cyclone having so much more recovery, would it be better?
Maybe it's time for me too XD
vortex
purple searing falcon will help on the future with focus issues
What does it do btw
another fissure
Market is dead
go buy these (EU)
That's godlike omg nice
Cyclone only 15k, that's a steal
i sold one for 12k yesterday π
He's EU all good, they got like 30 players gg
lmao
NA #1
does na have more after banwave?

it got reversed i thought
Yeah, we all got banned, got unabnned a couple hours later though, gg
Mhm we all good now
bait used to be believable
π
Duuude it was so scary. I thought they caught me HACKING π
i told my dudes dont give up, but we all know that were all fked
Are ncoins account bound? So if you come to NA, will you have them?
What was the reason for the ban wave? i bet they added a strong filter
which monday?
ah, like the game

Yo ascalon MY BOY
I see you sellin your items and quitting
Wassup MY BOY, come help a fella out ππ

All the ones i saw were listed for 9k+ and all sold
Stats on core and belt?
how big is 51>52
you miss a lot less. i went from like 6-7% miss rate with detect and 1100 accuracy, to like less than 1%. in terms of how hard your skills hit, i can't really tell.
in bloodmane.
some other people said it was ~10% dps increase.
i've heard that the actual damage you do increses quite a bit on lv 52 as well
on bsh
is it 12ap?
yeah 12 ap
Ppl using whole BSH SS set or 5 and 3 from profane?
just like brightstone, bsh set is better but also a pain in the ass to farm
i think most people prefer profane/kaari with perfect stats than praying for good pieces for the other 2 sets
full
Sheesh
3 fm's
What happened in there
none of them can hold aggro
i get the aggro
avoid kick
fm gets kicked and dies
bc apparently they were being melee xd
and none but one of them had any cc
so cant cc poha neither xdd
Sounds like a fun run
supa fun
Which server you on?
I'll be done with bsh runs in a few and go through the rest for dailies with the party, i'll probably have a slot if you wanna join in
any top EU players play pierce? except maria?
im gonna do a bug run and done tbh
i mean usually is not like this, but i guess those parties still exist lmao

haii chi! do you play it cuz puncture too expensive or you like the gameplay of pierce?
Mkay good, I really haven't found anyone that really enjoys the activeness of pierce with managing BD. Everyone wants the boomer hold macro and sleep
I love it
Have you been gettin good dps w it so far? :o
I'm starting to stack purp pierces now, so hard to find any on f5. :p
pierce is a lot more fun until bosses stop giving you attacks you can block
focus management is already painful for puncture at times
can't imagine what it's like for pierce when you can't block anything
I've heard it gets a lot better with mantras!
But obviously yeah, it's hella annoying at some times zzz
But I can't help but enjoy the gameplay, I kinda wanted to see if anyone else was playing it besides maria, so I could touch base and maybe talk a bit more abt the build. xD
It's good but i've gone the long way
Wymm :o
Ooo that's so pretty
You take Vortex over Cyclone?
I wish I could test both options ahhh
Also what Ascalon said, if boss starts doing red attacks
Low CD more focus might be better than longer cd with BD.
its pain
Ye, we just shoulder for that one attack and pray for more to block hahaha
As long as you have stuff to block its rolling smooth
you kinda need the BD from vortex for comfortable uptime
Right. :<
I just figured maybe it would be ok to let it go if boss attacks a lot.
To take advantage of cyclone
eu prices are funny
sec boss fight
the "big" skills are cheaper than NA
but random skills are like 2-3x
Frrrr
Prices have started dropping a little.
Because a lot of ppl are quitting
Sellin for cheap, RMT, or give to friends, then quit.
Lemme see <3
talking about meme skills
Na price check?
17k aint no way
Ikr π
huh, alright, i guess ppl sill pay more for that there
that skill is barely worth 7
It's not even that good ahhhh

I KNOW xD
I start thinking pierce actually why is not in meta
was gonna check eu
Cuz losing DPS for animation bdr and use more focus for getting bdr buff
but there isnt HS
Pierce is not in the meta because it requires active playstyle.
lmao
saving up for puncture now
And people just want to hold their macro and look pretty
Nah, the animation really drag down the DPS
Casting cdr takes time
it's still higher dps than puncture
Plus, the effort you'll be putting to out damage puncture is quite a lot and you're also hella punished if no bloackable attacks
it's been calculated and tested
And we need... 2 gold books for extra sec cdr
Yee it is stronger but you just need to put in the effort, people just prefer holding 1 button
the problem just lies in how hard it falls off when you can't actively block as much as you need to
It's literally the payphone meme
Did you 34 Rmb into v or v first
for 30% of the fight
Not that bad, u have c
isn't it a 36s cd
Now that I have blade call, I V V first
Enough to cover up the focus tho
Blade call is going to be so huge now I'm happy
Don't you lose badge with blade call?
I do but the 3s BD is so worth IMO.
5 sec 1 focus cost helps
Will be there soon
The flock blade version 3s bdr
Yeah I heard the Flock of blades will have BD with a kr patch
I got a bound one from my level 50
so I'll be ready
i was gonna go check the new kr flock
Yeah!
It ALSO gives 5 focus*
Mhmm
Which build do you play Ascalon?
Also, does your name come from guild wars 1?
i played puncture
well
started hybrid
but swapped to puncture bc way more fun
and nah not from gw1
How much does puncture sells in eu?
although that game was goated
20-25k
Na is like freaking 40k or smt
like 20k
WTB> LMB cyclone NA
i sold my 3 for 15 though
not that bad tho
DM Elluel in game and ask I got one for sale
But ye Kazami hmm
@spiral sky ive made some good coin off of belts
Flock of Blades purple might be the move @winter acorn
got trash
And blade Call for now
Yee
Im okay with 900 so far
Do you have the Detect Set?
What else do you think we should go for?
Blade Call, Honed slash, Pierces, Vortex, Cyclone, Stone Slash, Soaring Falcon, Fissure, Shoulder immunity
Any other books from my list?
I don't think so
oh
Fissure probably?
U need that knock down
shoulder immunity too
way too fkn good
the KD is that important hmm
i was thinking maybe scale ripper instead of boot
Helps the team
Nop
I'm thinking about dropping honed slash, and use dragon clash instead
You can have 6 sec bdr when daze or stun
nono that's dragon rise ascalon
If you team can land stun or daze
you get BD when foe is dazed ye?
Probably better than honed slash, since that thing actually takes 2 focus away
i always sync fissure with honed so i have no issue
and having a condition of daze is hellaaa fkn annoying
kd is the main cc people will use
mhm
unless you scale ripper
then sure
but at that point id remove boot, put scale ripper
and remove a pierce or wtv and add Dragon Rise
If you really want the extra 6s bd or something i think
Running with Static probably help
kd is still the primary cc
but it's so inconsistent that it doesnt seem worth it imo
Yea ik
this is why book stacking is just a horrible system
My group usually does kd and stun
it's AWFUL
slam damage
Not many slots left for bdr tbh
but WHY DO IT???? when you can get more DAMAGE :D
good game design
Insanely horrendous
That's y some class are giga op
yep
Like wind bd, like sunflower like excute
idk if i'd call sunflower giga op
i don't think that's a book stacking issue as much as it is a pure summoner issue
class is just shafted in neo
Smt like this
WTB heavenly slasher NA 8k
that 20k on market is troll
i just wanna know who came up with the stacking idea
bc they shouldn't be working in game dev
π
BM kinda sucks at book stacking meta
Half of the dmg is unstackable
They're making NCsoft miiillions tho
B>LMB cyclone 19k NA
dark in on crack
huh
If i use 15 blessing pots, they won't go to waste after daily reset?
nah blessingd earned from hm pots are saved and carried over
It isn't, knowing the mechanics. The only hard part is having dps to clear it (for f2p)
no, stam from pots carry over and ur daily 100 gets prioritized when u use stam
u also still get ur daily 100 if u have stam as long as the previous days daily 100 was used
Nice
unless u consider the haran pack p2w I'm f2p and started playing roughly 1 1/2 months ago
im full f2p, didn't get the pack and i do 15k in bsh2, and 18-20k in bsh1
If only i had cyclone... my dps would go around 20k prob
i think dps uptime is better in bsh1 vs cs, at least from my experience
this is what I have for 15k bsh2, and 18-20k in bsh1
Are both these numbers with or without sum

without def reduction
im usually 14k in bsh2 tho, i was almost 16k once cause we had insane dps and he stood still for most of the fight
yast is scary right now
i heard he got perma banned but idk
damn
so u dont normal hit the dps req for bsh2?
im bleed duty π
its normally like 14-15
used to be a lot worse LOL
i think mujin has the highest variance in dps due to the fact almost everything he does is a cc
I guess yast isn't coming back
what was the ban for
god knows it's NCsoft
puncture hella cheap rn
WTB Heavenly slasher NA pm

broooo
lmao
wtb> LMB cyclone 20k NA
thanks for buying it
was yours?
i upgraded to purple yea
what did you sell it for
4k
oooo
4k for that gubong?
wasnt lying
cheap af
oh wow cores went down in price
theyve been pretty low for a while now yea
How many seconds can a sum trap you? it felt like forever
it served me well hope it does for u too 
even the purple ones werent selling
had a purp mujin that was crit hp, couldnt sell even at 15k
i think eventually bought by anthem for 12k
@spiral sky are u sure u can get poh and stuff from fusing devas
show purp
If only i had cyclone so i can use pierce more. Not bad for half a build
aren't devas cinderlands?
@rain nimbus
ya, but he said purple to purple has everything
maybe its only good if u are fusing for legends
price LOL
transmuted
it was the 4th or 5th chest
didnt roll double crit naturally but only took 4 frags (one junk salvage) to land it
im asking you how much for it π
wait you rerolled it?
yea one of the chests i opened previously was so bad it wouldnt sell
so i salvagedf it into purp pieces
yes?
thats probably why i could only sell the blue gubong for 4k
junk blue cores are like 700 now
HOW
never said u can
i said u cant
purple is region locked
poh only moonwater
is it true that they will add the AP buff to all cores?
yea thats not true
cards are based on regions
so go for deva if u want legends
Donβt they all have .2% for purples?
deva ess is 1 dia
λΈμλ€μ€ μ μ€λν ν©μ±
λΈμλ€μ€ μ μ μμ λλ°
dunno saw mushin in viridian and monwater fusions
or im tripping
Casually spend 2000 gold and got shafted
Are purples still crazy worth smth on kr?
#λΈμλ€μ€ #νμΌκ²μ¬ #λΈμλ€μ€κ²μ¬
anyone selling heavenly slasher NA?
i have one up for 17.5k

what is the math behind pierce being better than puncture? cuz from what I can see, puncture always wins.
idk if pierce is getting buffed but from experience, i never saw a pierce build outdmg a puncture.
pierce is easier to stack is all I can see
even then.. I see 36+ pierce stack getting obliterated by 1 puncture ;-;
yeah pierce only does ~37-40% of your overall dmg. stacking it doesn't add that much value compared other builds that have 50-60%+
Bdr uptime
copium
In a perfect world
take out vortex wave and check the uptime again
even vortex itself makes pierce worse
thats 2 less sec of infinite focus to spam pierce
cyclone is basically infinite focus when u are tanking boss
since its 5 sec duration 6 sec cd
vortex is 3 sec duration 9 sec cd
Pierce's strongest point is the brust rotation
long fight puncture wins
And then game bugs out and u donβt even get bdr
and u also gotta waste more slots on bdr skills like HS , multi slash
When u could just be stacking puncture
not multi slash. blade call gives 3 sec of BDr
rush is better than multislash in command, just to run around scarlet
obv , ill never give up rush for a 45 sec skill
but im sure this "theortical" best involves multislash
how do i play puncture build properly? do i just tab-lmb spam until i have focus recovery skills / buffs up and then rmb spam?
R TAB T forever with pierce or puncture
ideally with low ping and high crit rate
And a good macro
oh so just throw t into my macro too?
and a computer that isn't a potato
that sounds a lot easier :P
That feels like a personal attack π
my computer is a potato. I just got wrecked in 6th place at WB because too many people there
QEs were not going off. Got KD'd 20 times. died at the end....
Same my pf could even handle the animations in dungeons and amicancling turned impossible 
btw whats pierce ratio are u getting on a infinite dummy at 80 ms
Also don't switch channels during WB. It resets your dmg progress on it
I don't know about on a dummy. On a bloodmane fight I had 188 cyclone, 185 tabs, 283 pierces with badge
Another on thrasher with 117 cyclone, 112 tab, 162 pierce
i just wish pierce was way more rewarding dmg wise.
Sell your pierces swap to puncture
feels bad playing pierce with no rewards when puncture is braindead with similar playstyle and more of less same dmg
i jst need the raw ratios
That's with 3.8k crit, crit lmb, stone slash. etc. 99%-100% accuracy
YOU MIGHT BE ONTO SUM
I can just say it feels bad
macro desyncs
I see a bunch of lmbs only, or lmb tabs
Just hybrid forever
i do wonder how much would our bms whale for the time stream weap if it ever dropped
Is anyone else unable to access the skill tree site?
there is one bm sword in eu someone trying to resell for 140k , dont think anyone bought
Itβs dead
Yast might never come back
@trim knot I see a purp pierce at 8.5k Slightly overpriced but not by much
im also debating swapping to puncture 
6.5k max id say
it's done.. my brother...
do it my love
come join me
32k
For real or joking? :(
there's 2 purp punctures at 35. Still too much but tempting me
there are 2 for 35k
so worth it if its your first tho
when you start stacking, i guess waitin til 30k is ok
but the jump in damage from only 1 is so huge that 35k is unironically worth it
considering they sold for 45k during this week fyi
it's truly sad, i saw some numbers earlier
the amount of effort we have to display as pierce
to simply be on par with puncture
without any room for error
owner got perma banned
yeah like don't get me wrong pierce is fun to play but too unforgiving
is truly sad. if the difference was actually noticible then i'd 100% advocate for pierce. i LOVE the playstyle, i love being engaged with upkeeping BDR, I enjoy it all
like every wb im 2 or 3 at the start til black dragon runs out
?????? holy fk
i told you man ahh
well expected since pierce burst rotation is super strong
NOOGET IT WAS YOUUU
it me
was me
and then it falls
yeah pierce bursts high for like 10 seconds and then it's just nothing
WHAT MADE YOU CAVEEE
list ur junk blues cheap and ill use my luck to turn them into punctures π
jas becoming hyouge jas now
yeah, I'm sticking firm on 30k ea. But I just couldn't wait. so 35k it was.
some of us here don't even have 1 purp puncture
tyty
are you still buying more at 30k lol
buy my blade call c:<
most likely
pierce is like a placeholder for puncture
gg my rank 2 in jeopardy
i will distract jas
stacking purple is worth it compared to timestream
you got this nadoo
Hexy you swappin?
yis

only wan

I only got pierce bro

hey another pierce 8.5
honestly I'm done with stacking pierces... I only have 4 slots for pierce. everything else is utility...
what i have 7
I have scale ripper, rush to run around scarlet
boot / flash step if you use either
rush is very good vs scarlet
I just walk around / through her to evade some of the yellows
@trim knot lmk how puncture works for you
time for blue train and field boss quests
@long tulip what exactly do you have for sale rn?
-100g
what couldve been
i need bloo punctures and cyclone nao
not the lmb the other one focus thingy
get me dat nooget
the lucky ones keep on winning
did you get puncture badge hexy
rip
use blue cyclone
i want to see it in action
if anyone else wants to buy purp pierces at 8.5k. I got 2 I can dump. Gets me closer to a puncture
thats what happens when DT is extinct and also 50k

dm touma kazusa
Hmm. They are 1 short of a purp pierce to finishing and there's 1 on market
arent u 200 ms 
hexy not streaming..
which one these is a cat BBR edition
join lb tab club when
surely purple tabs will come next patch 
im not sticking with tab
i have cyclone lmb
why wouldnt i go puncture now
now meaning as soon as i can afford it
is there any way to make it so applies show up on your screen instantly instead of having to go through notifications
every day im soloing waido and someone applies instead of inviting
dont think so
@odd daggerwhy your name still tab stacking is the future
it clearly isnt lol
purple coming later than other books.. scarse
its called a meme
is mushin dark shadow only available by fusing legendary?
I think you have a 2% chance to hit it by fusing purples. And the other legendaries split the other 18%
ah so thats the rarest
that should be the best single legendary to have
smite + onrush
I found a random simp 
wat stream is tis
It's all up hill
Grill
Something katsu
Idk the first one on twitch lol
hey guys, trying out heavenly slasher and noticed that im casting somewhat slow, timed myself and its around 2.5 casts/s. is that just a ping issue? (130ish)
it should speed up massively after 1st 3
yea its 2.5 casts at max speed
why so slow for u
yea my logs are showing mostly 2 hits/s, sometimes 3
anyone selling Purple Sunstroke NA?
Maybe frame rate or unstable ping
can u use dual strike to extend kd duration on bosses to?
yes

if you use it as soon as they are getting up, it will throw them down again
How did they know which account the Yast guy was using to ban them
What happened to yast
Yea thatβs why I donβt get why heβs banned
If it was part of the ban wave he should be unbanned now
oh you dont recommened huh xD
depends
very expensive bag of poo
ahh i only can get blues
then for blues best option would be hybrid i think
agreed^
hybrid? electric saber, sunstroke and DT
dt green works?
it can work, tho u may suffer a bit on focus
tho i guess blue SS will cover u
you need DT mystic badge sunstroke sould badge
my build is lmb tab rn
the mystic can be more or less expensive depending on what count u get
ok
keep in mind that with any drawss stance u will less able to tank properly tho
im still new so i will take care of that later
then u are set up, I will check first how many DT/ES you get in a sunstroke black dragon buff
aka 6 sec
if its 12/12 u may only need a moonwater mystic
if its less u may need a bit more
basically u want to recover your tab
so u get no downtime, thebetter the badge, the more u can "fck it up" a bit
POG
I'm happy for you 
If you can get legendary TDS, legendary Stone Slash and legendary focus recovery mantras stones then Lightning is best build 
it seems to be the only one with "gcd"
does that mean that tab stackers that do it because of their high ping could be on hs?
except it's tons more expensive
not tons more expensive , just higher barry to entry
cause eventually lb tab needs purple cyclone which is jst as expensive as hs
wouldn't hs run same lmb as well
nah
not like needed, but its a huge improvement for everything
pure hs run breeze
the thing about lmb tab
is thjat once u can get cyclone
u can transition to full pierce/puncture
since the only thing that changes is the stacked book
Can you go half and half with stacks tab and hs? Or is it better to stack one
better stack one
Gotcha
man even the blue books betray me
where's grandmaster for this thing tho
and why tf is it listed for 400 who the hell is buying it
@spiral sky is ahk some kind of magic , even though ping spikes my lb tab doesnt break lmao
Tbh razer is just dogwater
#1357788582617813132 message
u might wanna reduce delay on ur ping
if that one actually works I'll sht my pants
@clever nimbus made one
And? We still dry?
haven't tried it yet need to log my alt
just for salvage i guess
should be 4000
the game is fun, ncsoft made it unplayable for some reason
Hey
What's the best card sets RN with only purple/blues
I bought 1000s of essences
I have rn yunma smite bayleee onrush poh/devourer drain and rando detect
Who
hae mujin
He's grandpa?
yes poh's grandpa
Oh canon? Lol
yes
I need to check sets
They require some other new purples iirc
So I need them and hae
no
exactly those
until you're 55
then you replace devourer drain + detect with mujin drain





ya its not hard bsh1 is just 16-17k on cs
