Hell yeeeeee

fickle loom
#

you aint sly

#

blade strike investors

slender kelp
#

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

jaunty lark
#

Whats this blade strike propaganda

slender kelp
#

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

jaunty lark
#

I mean, i use it bc i was gigabroke and was chep hm back then but πŸ€”πŸ€”

#

Time to invest in purp

#

Huh

#

Tho firsy you need a 4 purp so u can really care about it i think

little moat
#

Blade strike is amazing πŸ™‚

winged reef
#

Legendary Stone Slash and Blade Strike would be nice

slender kelp
#

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 😭

jaunty lark
#

But with blade strik would be more πŸ‘€

slender kelp
#

i feel like 4k is still alot smh

jaunty lark
#

Its is

#

Iml searing bd buff has more value, so stone slash should cost a bit less

slender kelp
#

im guessing it's only this expensive because it's shared with puncture and hs users

#

legendary searing would be lit

jaunty lark
#

I mean, stone slash is used for anything if mob doesnt move and u dont nees bd

#

Cause well, more dps

gleaming pewter
#

5% crit rate is a lot

jaunty lark
#

Ye. And with blade strike cdr can be very good

slender kelp

#

that would be grief

spiral sky
#

im starting my gabler arc

twin lark
#

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

rain nimbus
slender kelp
#

i already have it from lv 50

slender kelp
#

getting 2 bound ones is pointless

spiral sky
#

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

twin lark
#

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

spiral sky
#

and i will have another problem

everyone will be 55

why not

burnt helm
#

Someone send me a purple pierce pls ty

gilded thistle
#

How many?

north burrow
# sage tulip what was the tipping point

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

burnt helm
#

One is enough I'm not greedy

north burrow
#

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

sage tulip
#

understandable

north burrow
#

game just has no future and unfortunate NC don't seem to care

gilded thistle
#

Damn its ill's fault

north burrow
#

that's why i took his money

burnt helm
#

Always has been

north burrow
#

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

#

πŸ‘

winged reef
#

It’s just the same as poh or chef

sage tulip
#

idk how many bsh runs i did and didnt get a single cr cd piece yet

winged reef
#

Except bigger hp to make whales feel better

#

Next content will be the same

north burrow
#

it's boring

winged reef
#

Sadly it looks like it will be like this until Silverfrost

gilded thistle
#

The loot is horrendous

slender kelp
#

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

spiral sky
#

firts luck in the game

rain nimbus
#

gz

#

do u have chef

#

or devourer

#

that chef poh 32ap one is bait tho

spiral sky
#

what now

rain nimbus
#

YOU USED YUNMA FOR THAT

#

lolxd

slender kelp
#

wtf LMAO

#

that is crazy

spiral sky
#

i got it on first day

#

on the 45 patch

#

didnt see the cards

rain nimbus
slender kelp
#

πŸ…±οΈruh

rain nimbus
#

you need the 32ap one then

#

do you have a chef

#

oh you do

spiral sky
#

u saw the cd/cr

#

2 slots

#

and said

#

what a steal

rain nimbus

i think you take the ap at this point

Yast is dead

#

When did that happen

Probably temporary

slender kelp

huh it really is

jaunty lark
#

most broken player

slender kelp
#

i was there like 20 mins ago

rain nimbus
#

@north burrow i would have at least waited until next weeks news

sage tulip
#

what news

#

there wont be any patch

#

probably just maintenance

north burrow
#

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

rain nimbus
#

gotta believe

north burrow
#

well

#

EU is still being ddos'ed

#

after 6 weeks

#

i already had 0 expectations for this company

#

and they somehow delivered even lower

trim knot
#

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?

merry prairie
#

Maybe it's time for me too XD

spiral sky
#

vortex

spiral sky
trim knot
#

Grrrr

#

Release it nyao 🀬

trim knot
slender kelp
#

adds an extra 6 focus regen over time

#

so you get 5 instant + 6 over a few secs

Yeah, we all got banned, got unabnned a couple hours later though, gg

πŸ˜‚

trim knot
#

Duuude it was so scary. I thought they caught me HACKING πŸ˜”

sage tulip
#

i told my dudes dont give up, but we all know that were all fked

trim knot
#

Are ncoins account bound? So if you come to NA, will you have them?

twin lark
#

What was the reason for the ban wave? i bet they added a strong filter

sage tulip
trim knot
#

No official response yet from nc

#

Gotta wait til monday for a statement

clever nimbus

which monday?

sage tulip

how big is 51>52

bronze bolt
# rain nimbus 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.

slender kelp
#

i've heard that the actual damage you do increses quite a bit on lv 52 as well

#

on bsh

slender kelp
#

yeah 12 ap

twin lark
#

Ppl using whole BSH SS set or 5 and 3 from profane?

slender kelp
#

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

twin lark
#

I'm using 5 bright and 3 profane

#

for now

jaunty lark
#

alright

#

this was a ROUGH ending

#

holy lord xd

gilded thistle
#

Sheesh

jaunty lark
#

3 fm's

gilded thistle
#

What happened in there

jaunty lark
#

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

gilded thistle
#

Sounds like a fun run

jaunty lark
#

supa fun

gilded thistle
#

Which server you on?

jaunty lark
#

cinderlands

#

so ye, here pugs are a sh1tshow πŸ‘

gilded thistle
#

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

trim knot
#

any top EU players play pierce? except maria?

jaunty lark
#

im gonna do a bug run and done tbh

gilded thistle
jaunty lark
#

i mean usually is not like this, but i guess those parties still exist lmao

gilded thistle
jaunty lark
#

i also was kindly halidn ghe "mate u are not doing even 5k dps" argument

#

trim knot
gilded thistle
#

Gameplay

#

i wanted a basic stance build

#

That you dont' get bored playing

trim knot
#

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

gilded thistle
#

I love it

trim knot
#

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

north burrow
#

pierce is a lot more fun until bosses stop giving you attacks you can block

trim knot
#

Yeah, that's what I'm kinda afraid of..

#

We will only have shoulder to proc vortex. xD

north burrow
#

focus management is already painful for puncture at times

#

can't imagine what it's like for pierce when you can't block anything

trim knot
#

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

gilded thistle
trim knot
#

Wymm :o

gilded thistle
trim knot
#

Ooo that's so pretty

#

You take Vortex over Cyclone?

#

I wish I could test both options ahhh

gilded thistle
#

Also what Ascalon said, if boss starts doing red attacks

trim knot
#

Low CD more focus might be better than longer cd with BD.

gilded thistle
#

its pain

trim knot
#

Ye, we just shoulder for that one attack and pray for more to block hahaha

gilded thistle
#

As long as you have stuff to block its rolling smooth

north burrow
#

you kinda need the BD from vortex for comfortable uptime

trim knot
#

Right. :<

#

I just figured maybe it would be ok to let it go if boss attacks a lot.

#

To take advantage of cyclone

gilded thistle
#

Vortex yeah

#

I was thinking about dropping a pierce for blade call

#

extra bd

trim knot
#

Oh I think you should!

#

I just bought one for 5k.

gilded thistle
#

but last price was 20k

#

i aint buying that

spiral sky
#

shoulder ifram reds

#

vorted/cyclone after

trim knot
#

I see

#

Ye blade call is hella fkn good

#

Wtf 20k in eu?

north burrow
#

eu prices are funny

gilded thistle
#

sec boss fight

north burrow
#

the "big" skills are cheaper than NA

trim knot
#

You guys have the opposite

#

yes LOL!

north burrow
#

but random skills are like 2-3x

trim knot
#

Frrrr

#

Prices have started dropping a little.

#

Because a lot of ppl are quitting

#

Sellin for cheap, RMT, or give to friends, then quit.

jaunty lark
#

how much is HS in NA btw?

#

πŸ€”

trim knot
#

Lemme see <3

jaunty lark
#

talking about meme skills

winter acorn
trim knot
#

Gotcha cuties

north burrow
#

17k aint no way

trim knot
#

Ikr 😭

jaunty lark
#

huh, alright, i guess ppl sill pay more for that there

north burrow
#

that skill is barely worth 7

trim knot
#

It's not even that good ahhhh

north burrow
trim knot
#

I KNOW xD

winter acorn
#

I start thinking pierce actually why is not in meta

trim knot
#

It's just that all the ES/DT hybrids want one.

#

And theyre all whales so.. xD

jaunty lark
#

was gonna check eu

winter acorn
#

Cuz losing DPS for animation bdr and use more focus for getting bdr buff

jaunty lark
#

but there isnt HS

trim knot
#

Pierce is not in the meta because it requires active playstyle.

jaunty lark
#

lmao

winter acorn
#

bns_cry saving up for puncture now

trim knot
#

And people just want to hold their macro and look pretty

winter acorn
#

Casting cdr takes time

north burrow
#

it's still higher dps than puncture

trim knot
#

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

north burrow
#

it's been calculated and tested

winter acorn
trim knot
#

Yee it is stronger but you just need to put in the effort, people just prefer holding 1 button

north burrow
#

the problem just lies in how hard it falls off when you can't actively block as much as you need to

trim knot
#

It's literally the payphone meme

north burrow
#

i cant imagine how bad it feels on mujin after 30% lmao

#

0 blockable attacks

winter acorn
north burrow
#

for 30% of the fight

trim knot
#

Ahhh it's not bad

#

But ye it sucks xD

winter acorn
north burrow
#

isn't it a 36s cd

Blade call is going to be so huge now I'm happy

winter acorn
unreal oriole
#

anyone have a cheap heavenly slasher ?

#

NA

trim knot
#

I do but the 3s BD is so worth IMO.

winter acorn
#

5 sec 1 focus cost helps

winter acorn
#

The flock blade version 3s bdr

trim knot
#

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

north burrow
#

i was gonna go check the new kr flock

trim knot
#

Yeah!

north burrow
#

but forgot

#

yast is dead now

#

πŸ‘

trim knot
#

It ALSO gives 5 focus*

#

Mhmm

#

Which build do you play Ascalon?

#

Also, does your name come from guild wars 1?

north burrow
#

i played puncture

#

well

#

started hybrid

#

but swapped to puncture bc way more fun

#

and nah not from gw1

winter acorn
#

How much does puncture sells in eu?

north burrow
#

although that game was goated

hollow karma
#

20-25k

winter acorn
#

Na is like freaking 40k or smt

@spiral sky ive made some good coin off of belts

#

Flock of Blades purple might be the move @winter acorn

spiral sky
#

got trash

trim knot
#

And blade Call for now

winter acorn
#

Yee

spiral sky
#

i need more acc

#

missing to much pierces

gilded thistle
#

Im okay with 900 so far

trim knot
#

Do you have the Detect Set?

trim knot
#

Blade Call, Honed slash, Pierces, Vortex, Cyclone, Stone Slash, Soaring Falcon, Fissure, Shoulder immunity

winter acorn
#

That it

#

Unless legendary stone slash

#

Or legendary honed slah

trim knot
#

Any other books from my list?

winter acorn
#

I don't think so

trim knot
#

oh

winter acorn
#

Fissure probably?

trim knot
#

do you guys use boot kick?

#

o ye fissure

winter acorn
#

U need that knock down

trim knot
#

shoulder immunity too

#

way too fkn good

#

the KD is that important hmm

#

i was thinking maybe scale ripper instead of boot

winter acorn
#

Helps the team

gilded thistle
winter acorn
north burrow
#

dragon crash for basic stance?

trim knot
#

I have Flash Step in my build

#

That I use in my opener

winter acorn
#

Not the draw stance one

north burrow
#

i know which skill it is

#

huh

#

oh isn't that the one

#

only on dazed

winter acorn
#

You can have 6 sec bdr when daze or stun

trim knot
#

nono that's dragon rise ascalon

winter acorn
#

If you team can land stun or daze

trim knot
#

you get BD when foe is dazed ye?

winter acorn
#

Probably better than honed slash, since that thing actually takes 2 focus away

north burrow
#

well honed slash is on demand

#

how often is the boss really dazed

trim knot
#

i always sync fissure with honed so i have no issue

#

and having a condition of daze is hellaaa fkn annoying

north burrow
#

kd is the main cc people will use

trim knot
#

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

winter acorn
#

Running with Static probably help

north burrow
#

kd is still the primary cc

trim knot
#

but it's so inconsistent that it doesnt seem worth it imo

winter acorn
north burrow
#

this is why book stacking is just a horrible system

winter acorn
#

My group usually does kd and stun

trim knot
#

it's AWFUL

north burrow
#

you could run these conditional skills

#

BUUUUT

#

it's better to just

gilded thistle
#

slam damage

winter acorn
#

Not many slots left for bdr tbh

north burrow
#

run another main dps stack

#

πŸ‘

trim knot
#

but WHY DO IT???? when you can get more DAMAGE :D

north burrow
#

good game design

gilded thistle
#

Insanely horrendous

north burrow
#

ruins market

#

ruins build variety

winter acorn
north burrow
#

yep

winter acorn
#

Like wind bd, like sunflower like excute

north burrow
#

idk if i'd call sunflower giga op

winter acorn
#

95% dmg from sunflower or smt

north burrow
#

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

winter acorn
#

Smt like this

unreal oriole
#

WTB heavenly slasher NA 8k shy that 20k on market is troll

north burrow
#

i just wanna know who came up with the stacking idea

#

bc they shouldn't be working in game dev

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

#

and the boss is arguably easier than cs

twin lark
#

If only i had cyclone... my dps would go around 20k prob

sharp current
#

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

odd dagger
sharp current
#

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

i heard he got perma banned but idk

its normally like 14-15

i think mujin has the highest variance in dps due to the fact almost everything he does is a cc

rain nimbus
#

wait wait wait

#

you can reroll stats on souls?

long tulip
#

#

junk blue cores are like 700 now

rain nimbus
#

long tulip
#

#

rain nimbus
#

#

purple is region locked

#

poh only moonwater

hard iris

is it true that they will add the AP buff to all cores?

odd dagger

cards are based on regions

spiral sky

#

legends isall

odd dagger

so go for deva if u want legends

hard iris

Don’t they all have .2% for purples?

Are purples still crazy worth smth on kr?

#

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.

brave pendant
#

pierce is easier to stack is all I can see

trim knot
#

even then.. I see 36+ pierce stack getting obliterated by 1 puncture ;-;

brave pendant
#

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%+

odd dagger

#

In a perfect world

brave pendant
#

take out vortex wave and check the uptime again

hard iris
#

Where u can have 100% bdr uptime

#

It’s better

#

Realistically it’s not

odd dagger
#

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

hard iris
#

And then game bugs out and u don’t even get bdr

odd dagger
#

and u also gotta waste more slots on bdr skills like HS , multi slash

hard iris
#

When u could just be stacking puncture

brave pendant
#

rush is better than multislash in command, just to run around scarlet

odd dagger
#

obv , ill never give up rush for a 45 sec skill

#

but im sure this "theortical" best involves multislash

tiny sky
#

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?

brave pendant
#

ideally with low ping and high crit rate

hard iris
#

And a good macro

tiny sky
#

oh so just throw t into my macro too?

brave pendant
#

and a computer that isn't a potato

tiny sky
#

that sounds a lot easier :P

hard iris
brave pendant
#

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....

hard iris
#

Same my pf could even handle the animations in dungeons and amicancling turned impossible bns_bursting

odd dagger
brave pendant
#

Also don't switch channels during WB. It resets your dmg progress on it

brave pendant
#

Another on thrasher with 117 cyclone, 112 tab, 162 pierce

trim knot
#

i just wish pierce was way more rewarding dmg wise.

hard iris
#

Sell your pierces swap to puncture

trim knot
#

feels bad playing pierce with no rewards when puncture is braindead with similar playstyle and more of less same dmg

brave pendant
#

That's with 3.8k crit, crit lmb, stone slash. etc. 99%-100% accuracy

trim knot
brave pendant
#

I can just say it feels bad

#

macro desyncs

#

I see a bunch of lmbs only, or lmb tabs

hard iris
#

Just hybrid forever

odd dagger
#

hmmpepe i do wonder how much would our bms whale for the time stream weap if it ever dropped

urban bridge
#

I call...

#

170k

odd dagger
#

na maybe

#

eu bms are cheapos

tiny sky
#

Is anyone else unable to access the skill tree site?

odd dagger
#

there is one bm sword in eu someone trying to resell for 140k , dont think anyone bought

hard iris

Not worth it

#

@trim knot I see a purp pierce at 8.5k Slightly overpriced but not by much

limpid blaze
#

im also debating swapping to puncture SadSwing

gilded thistle
#

6.5k max id say

brave pendant
#

oh

#

how much you get that for?

trim knot
#

come join me

trim knot
tiny sky
brave pendant
#

there's 2 purp punctures at 35. Still too much but tempting me

trim knot
#

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

limpid blaze
#

its just 5-7 pierce books = 1 puncture at current value

#

true feelsbad

trim knot
#

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

odd dagger
limpid blaze
#

yeah like don't get me wrong pierce is fun to play but too unforgiving

trim knot
#

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

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)

odd dagger
#

it should speed up massively after 1st 3

solid sun
#

yea its 2.5 casts at max speed

odd dagger
#

hmmpepe why so slow for u

solid sun

idk im just holding down right click

#

is there some tech or

odd dagger

non

#

this is mine at 130 ms

at max speed slasher

what

#

why would it even be tied to a specific account

jaunty lark
#

What happened to yast

winged reef
#

Yea that’s why I don’t get why he’s banned

#

If it was part of the ban wave he should be unbanned now

formal nexus
#

what does an electric build look like? books wise?

#

lightning'

jaunty lark
#

like a shining bag of sh1t

#

a lot of purps for avg dmg

formal nexus
#

oh you dont recommened huh xD

jaunty lark
#

depends

hollow karma
#

very expensive bag of poo

formal nexus
#

ahh i only can get blues

jaunty lark
#

if u like it go with it

#

if u are chasing dps no

formal nexus
#

i am chasing dps

#

big boy dmg

#

want best BUILD!

jaunty lark
#

then for blues best option would be hybrid i think

hollow karma
#

agreed^

jaunty lark
#

similar "feel" than lightning

#

without shooting urself in the foot

formal nexus
#

xD

#

what books i need tho

#

im buying now

jaunty lark
#

hybrid? electric saber, sunstroke and DT

formal nexus
#

dt green works?

jaunty lark
#

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

formal nexus
#

my build is lmb tab rn

jaunty lark
#

the mystic can be more or less expensive depending on what count u get

formal nexus
#

ok

jaunty lark
#

keep in mind that with any drawss stance u will less able to tank properly tho

formal nexus
#

im still new so i will take care of that later

jaunty lark
#

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

formal nexus
#

kinda confused...

#

oh ok

#

got it

jaunty lark
#

basically u want to recover your tab

#

so u get no downtime, thebetter the badge, the more u can "fck it up" a bit

slender kelp
#

yooooooooooooo

#

the last purple i needed

#

thanks videogame

If you can get legendary TDS, legendary Stone Slash and legendary focus recovery mantras stones then Lightning is best build thinker

unreal oriole
#

whats the max heavenly slashers in 1 second?

#

i get 3-4 with 20 ms

wooden rain
#

that is the max

#

supposedly hs should have the same count regardless of ping

unreal oriole
#

it seems to be the only one with "gcd"

slender kelp
#

does that mean that tab stackers that do it because of their high ping could be on hs?

jaunty lark
#

kinda

#

if purp hs assumed ye

wooden rain
#

except it's tons more expensive

odd dagger
#

not tons more expensive , just higher barry to entry

#

cause eventually lb tab needs purple cyclone which is jst as expensive as hs

jaunty lark
#

i mean

#

i wait, the lmb ye

wooden rain
#

wouldn't hs run same lmb as well

odd dagger
#

nah

jaunty lark
#

not like needed, but its a huge improvement for everything

odd dagger
#

pure hs run breeze

jaunty lark
#

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

unreal oriole
#

Can you go half and half with stacks tab and hs? Or is it better to stack one

jaunty lark
#

better stack one

unreal oriole
#

Gotcha

wooden rain
#

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
