I do not, but if you want Wb damage, LMB > Ice Rain. If you want Regular dungeon Damage, Ice Rain is better

fickle glen
#

back to waiting for rains then 😔

#

unkempt horizon
#

I am waiting on Purple Ice rain myself. I only have 6 blues

#

I offered 50k gems for one, noluck

fickle glen
#

american prices

#

omegalul

unkempt horizon
#

yes

#

Sold a purple char yesterday in NA fr 50k

copper mason
#

NA truly is the death of f2p

#

50k smhhms

unkempt horizon
#

Purple Massive Snowball went for 15k

lyric bay
#

isnt purple snowball a massive overkill? is it just for the dmg increase?

unkempt horizon
#

Its for permanent uptime on Cold Snap

lyric bay
#

but blue + virt badge is already -26s

unkempt horizon
#

Virt badge is very hard to get on NA

not even one up for sale t the moment

@fickle glen @uneven talon @lyric bay Here are the results of the side by side parse. I do not have recording software setup, so no clips.

My setup is: Purple of the following: Force Blast, Massive Snowball, Cold Snap, Blazing Palm. Virtuous Soul and Mystic Badge. I always weave in Dual Dragons when off CD.

Test 1: Always use Force Blast > Massive Snowball > Cold Snap when boost stops, for permanent boost uptime
Test 2: Only use Massive Snowball when of CD to retrigger Cold Snap. No force blast at all.

Here are the results

lyric bay

whats your crit rate?

unkempt horizon
lyric bay
#

damn

copper mason
#

oh man

#

what is your ping

unkempt horizon
#

35 ms

#

steady

copper mason
#

hmm that should be fine I think

#

can you give the amount of ice rain hits

#

nvm,

#

im blind

#

is that the actual number or meter inflated?

#

on char we get 3x numbers per hit so making sure

unkempt horizon
copper mason
#

oki

lyric bay
#

actual number = meter # divided by 2?

uneven talon
unkempt horizon
#

I just used whatever the forbidden program said for both tests, so its a fair comparison at least

uneven talon
#

I’m not there in CR only at 3600, but shouldn’t be TOO diff so should do some testing too

unkempt horizon
uneven talon
#

Yeah got them locked aswell, just haven’t tested ignoring FB/Snowball

#

Or ignoring FB*

unkempt horizon
#

That would not be needed with focus mantras, but my mantras are all damage, and it doesn't matter for shorter fights

uneven talon
#

hmmm but 21/24k dps though 🧐

unkempt horizon
#

yep

copper mason
#

I'm so confused by the dps as well

#

2.97 counts per sec seem fine though

uneven talon
#

I’ll have to test it myself aswell

copper mason
#

maybe I don't remember the ice counts correctly

#

but iirc it's 2x char, which would make those good counts

unkempt horizon
#

Its because I am losing about 30 casts of Ice Rain when I use FB. Because FB is on the GCD.

#

Thats the DPS difference

copper mason
#

even then your dps should be far higher I think

unkempt horizon
#

I have gotten these same results every time. This is not the first time I have run these same tests. Its always roughly a 10-15% DPS loss to use Force Blast

#

but ONLY if you can sustain the focus

uneven talon
#

My ping is around 20 😮

unkempt horizon
#

It would not work for people with lower crit

uneven talon
#

Might be ping related etc

copper mason
#

are these counts with lmb+rmb+2 spam always?

#

or just 2

unkempt horizon
#

always RT2. macro is .01 second delay, so it never affects the number of Ice Rains I get in

copper mason
#

ok yeah I'm lost

#

there's no way it should be this low

uneven talon

Ah well I can show some tests later :>

z doesnt have gcd, you can use another skill right after

unkempt horizon
uneven talon

I usually use Z1 at the same time and weave in a snowball whenever it’s up and Z is down

fickle glen
unkempt horizon
#

Either way, just putting it out there for everyone. People can make up their own mind. As long as I stay #1 on WB, I will keep doing what I am doing

unkempt horizon
fickle glen
#

wait ur #1 wb with 20k?

unkempt horizon
fickle glen
#

ha

#

na is interesting place

unkempt horizon
fickle glen
#

1%

#

wow

unkempt horizon
#

That was last night, and I lost orbs halfway through

fickle glen
#

how long it takes for you guys to kill it

#

lol

unkempt horizon
#

This was on Dragon

#

Takes about 18 minutes on average

fickle glen
#

jesus

copper mason
#

wait what

unkempt horizon
#

And our server has not had a WB drop in 2 weeks now

copper mason
#

how are you that far ahead with 24k

#

I thought NA was whale city

fickle glen
#

No clip is sad tho 😔 Idk how you get boosted without z

unkempt horizon
fickle glen
#

I think he is on the lowest population?

unkempt horizon
fickle glen
#

but 18 min for it is crazy ngl

#

cinderlands takes like 10 min

unkempt horizon
#

Bamboo takes like 40 minutes to kill

fickle glen
#

and we kill it in 3

#

damn that's wild

#

what about bamboo?

unkempt horizon
fickle glen
#

oh

#

How long it takes on heaven?

unkempt horizon
#

like 5 minutes or less

unkempt horizon
fickle glen
#

I am more suprised about your boosted rains

#

Are you using focus recover dummy btw?

unkempt horizon
#

nope

#

I have the same results in normal fights. Never lose focus on either method.

#

I am getting the same results. About 15% lower using FB. Think I will unsocket it for another Ice Rain

fervent pond
#

Damn i shoulda played on viridian, seems so much easier to be #1

#

Top 5 in heaven’s reach is neck & neck

#

But also spending 18 min on wb nvm that sounds like ass

unkempt horizon
lyric bay
#

what a lovely conversation that was in here bns_blush

#

so calm and productive

copper mason
#

would be nice to have more data on ice fms

#

only time we see counts is when people are asking for advice, but I don't think we've seen top ice fms post their counts, so nothing to compare it to, lol

#

also ice is so ping dependant that it's hard to pinpoint any issues or give advice without a ton of info

fervent pond
#

I have some data from wb run last night

copper mason
#

basically just ice rain per second on longer fights, so we know what are good counts

fickle glen
#

idk how to count rain ps

#

so eh

copper mason
#

with the mystical excel meter

fervent pond
#

On a dummy 3 min parse i’ve seen like 2-3 ice rains per sec is good

fickle glen
#

I really wonder what moon doing tho

#

like

#

it doesnt boost it without z

#

🤔

fervent pond
#

I’m fairly positive he’s playing wrong but he wouldn’t take no for an answer so i don’t wanna try to change his mind

copper mason
#

idk how you'd play ice wrong though

#

only 1 way to play it

fervent pond
#

By not using force blast 🤡

copper mason
#

oh right

#

well even when he used it

#

dps was far lower than it should be

fleet wolf
fickle glen
#

I mean

#

that parse doesnt include x and 1's damage

#

so its kinda off

#

but its weird

fleet wolf
#

Bro is probably practicing rotation for when they gets Legendary Ice Rain ngl

fickle glen
#

I mean thats perma boosted

#

he says he gets boost when its used back to back

#

but I dont have that so idk how he have that lol

fleet wolf
#

Dam must be hacing if true, ez Ban

fervent pond
#

That’s just wrong lol

#

He reading the description wrong

fickle glen
#

I mean

#

his numbers are above

copper mason
#

yeah 2.97

#

in the higher dps one

#

though are ice counts really 1:1 from the meter?

fleet wolf
#

Well xml edit ftw, happy gaming

fervent pond
#

But his dps output is low with 2.97

copper mason
#

flame counts get muliplied from burn and additional dmg

fervent pond
#

24k is what i get on like a moving boss like poh

#

Haven’t done a dummy parse myself in a minute tho

fickle glen
#

he doesnt have purple

fervent pond
#

Yea i know

copper mason
#

is there a speed difference on purp?

fleet wolf
fervent pond
#

No

fleet wolf
#

😂 gaping so hard by Purple LMB on WB

copper mason
#

wb skill smh

#

can't get top 5 anyway, only if a whale DCs

#

otherwise 6 is max

fleet wolf
#

Me vs Purple Palm + Beam

copper mason
#

wb skill indeed

#

though poh is inflated so hard on char sometimes

#

got 28k yday

#

if tigers come out to play, maybe a little turret dmg

fleet wolf
copper mason
#

no way, I'm ridiculously poor, people want 15k for that

fleet wolf
#

Hmm but you are able to top 10 easily NA?

copper mason
#

I'm EU moonwater, and I'm usually 6-8, depending if I fk up, 5 if a top whale is missing

#

I do around 22k on a WB, if it's not meganura

fervent pond
#

Also what is moon’s dps parse ss, i’ve never seen a meter with that ui

#

Is meganura different? Or u mean cause there’s downtime when he goes invulnerable

copper mason
#

yeah due to the downtime

#

others uptime is near 100%

#

dps is nerfed a bit due to purple palmers

fleet wolf
copper mason
#

you mean 25k world or dummy?

#

those are very different, lol

fleet wolf
#

Stable dummy, I mean the #10 is 20stacks Beam + Palm so

copper mason
#

ah, well my dummy is 25+ now, highest I got was over 26, but that was rng rate

#

so realistically around 25

fervent pond
#

Need NA prices to be like EU prices lol

copper mason
#

3-5 min

fervent pond
#

A purple ice rain sold for 68k yesterday

fleet wolf
#

Nah, Char / Ice Rain price will stay or even inflate, when next patch hit

#

Char / Rain ignores evasion, every wealthy Beam user with low accuracy will be wanting to switch

copper mason
#

whales got stacked accu anyway

#

and anyone not whaling is not buying those books in NA, lol

fervent pond
#

Most of the whales i’ve seen don’t have 1100 acc yet

fickle glen
#

cuz its not needed right now

fervent pond
#

Yea but patch was expected this week

#

So i thought more would prep lol

copper mason
#

is 1100 the cap for mujin?

fervent pond
#

It’s what’s recommended

#

Should be easier as we get more levels

fleet wolf
#

I mean you’d still lose on other stats if allocating 1.1k accuracy

fervent pond
#

I think if u roll well on psyches u should be ok

#

I have 1.1 rn with 3.6k crit and 2.9k crit dmg

fleet wolf
#

But whales be rolling those Crit CrtDmg doubles lol

fervent pond
#

Top 5 whales are within the 3-4k crit and 2-3k crit dmg range

#

Buon’s sold acc has like 3.6k crit and 3k crit dmg

fleet wolf
#

Well there’s also the detect card, Beam loss will be minimized with that w adequate Accuracy

main roost
#

you just give up a bit of crit rate for the accuracy, once you're at 3k+ crit rate you'd be losing at most like 2% crit, prob less

#

the expensive way to get accuracy is to max both badges and get top acc roll + crit/acc poh psyches

#

but it's 1/36 to hit both stats on a psych so

#

gets expensive

#

I've been getting crit damage + accuracy accessories for now, since they're cheap

fleet wolf
#

Real baiter to force Accuracy rolls

main roost
#

oh yeah I wouldn't roll over a double crit roll

#

I'd just use an accuracy primer instead of a crit primer

#

just if you wanna min max then that's the way to do it because the accuracy can roll so high

#

oh wait I misread

#

on accessories, I'm not trying to spend thousands of gems to get an extra 100 crit rate, it would barely impact my damage

#

I'd rather get cheaper accessories and cap my accuracy

#

unless you were referring to psyches

fleet wolf

since I'm on NA and purple books cost so much I gotta save everywhere I can

fervent pond
main roost
# slow magnet But Ace is purple beam even worth it?

I'm 99% sure that char and ice rain are superior to beam at purple+, but it's still a damage increase, and the only real way to gain damage for beam after a certain point

if it was cheap enough to get a good amount of gm points for the same price as 1 ice rain or char it'd be ok

#

so like maybe I'd pay 15k or so for a purple beam but that's it cuz yeah it's like a 10% overall damage increase before gm points

#

sucks that blue beams are still 1500

slow magnet

any dragonchar / blazing beam purple users with around 800 apish?

Why specifically 56 seconds

odd wraith
#

pop gubong, wait till there's like a second left before u start dpsing and u stop whenever core comes off CD

#

its usually around 56 seconds

#

ice users too, post yours obviously

#

can compare hits for ice users, i just wanna see whats damage like for the other 2 specz

main roost
#

if not then I guess I'm not clearing tree or naryu with my dogshit damage

oh it make sense now why my assasin's cd more than my fm meanwhile my gear better than the assains's stuff (you porbably forgot this message already) Thx anyway

#

how to make people freeze on battleground? I keep getting hard stuck when they hit me with anything basicly while fighting other fmers

lyric bay
#

seems like u are hitting into a parry. not much u can do about that except not hitting it or using skills that igore block and parry.
i think ppl freeze when they have 3 stacks of ice/frostbite on them

lyric stump
#

my build is ice rain+ the others ice stuff, howcome I don't freeze anybody not even mobs

lyric bay
#

the skill has to say 'triggers frostbite'

#

for example, one of the frost palm books does that

#

or blue ice coil

#

(exclaimer: idk the proper pvp build)

faint mortar
#

i could be wrong but is stacking 3 frosts on someone not the same as applying a frostbite?

#

also in pvp a lot of people will resist debuffs

main roost
#

getting hit while having a frost orbit applies a stack of frostbite, 3 stacks = frozen

#

so keeping a frost orbit on you is really good

#

don't use dragonfrost/dual dragons unless you can generate another orbit

#

or if it gets you a kill

#

ice sheet is the rmb that applies it, but it costs 2 focus until purple book so you'll run out of focus super fast

#

purple ice sheet can be bought for like 2k gems if you wanna seriously PvP

faint mortar
#

ahhh i see frostbite is the individual stack

main roost
#

I don't think freeze is a debuff that can be resisted

#

that's only knockdown/stun/daze

#

and knockback

#

also while chilled (old name for frostbite, sounds much better) you can't use approach skills

faint mortar
#

I think the frostbite stacks can tho no?

main roost
#

so it's really strong

faint mortar
#

I do like chilled more

main roost
#

maybe, it's hard to tell because it doesn't give the RESISTED text

faint mortar
#

I just feel like a lot of the time they don’t get a stack when I rmb

#

Maybe I’m just drunk

fervent pond
main roost
#

it doesn't do that much damage compared to your ice rains

#

so if you just use it sparingly to apply chill it might be better

fickle glen
#

Your pvp skills are irrevelant

#

You are just dps bot

#

Fm can't 1v1

main roost
#

it's good to chill so you can't get engaged on

#

not saying you need to PvP combo people

fickle glen
#

Honestly if a kfm wants it, he will jump on you

#

You cant run from it

fervent pond
#

Yea wondering if it’s useful if i end up 1v3 or something lol

I tried blue ice sheet but it just costs way too much focus

so i nthe end which is better for Blazing beam build? I do use Fiend Fire though and plan on keep on using it

#

unless they're all so bad that it would make almost no dif if i use one of these as blazing beam

last raptor
#

even tho i never have lack of focus?

sharp grotto
#

well u technically

#

dont need any if u have no focus problems

last raptor
#

i should swap blazing palm for infernal blow

#

i dont even use F on ice to recover the 5 focus

#

which is y i wasnt sure if these badges were worth... specially the most used by ppl the inferno fiend fire one cause it resets meteor shower that isnt that good in terms of dmg and focus recover is good but i dont need to spam it, not to mention... since fiend fire doesnt have a CD reduction, id just have to wait for it to be back

main roost
#

both badges are meh unfortunately because no modifier to make meteor do more damage

#

if you want the most damage you should use purple blazing palm, it just does too much even tho it's annoying to play around

Hi FMs. I have a doubt about build. Currently I'm ICE but I seems like I don't do several more damage than other FIRE FM with even less AP (maybe I do around 1K more).
My current build is: https://yast.vercel.app/?subView="TraitView"&p="NEOEU190325"&class="ForceMaster"&spec=0&neoSkills="H4sIAKWP-2cAA2vaEpyak5pckpoSnJ2Zk5OUn5_tmVI8t3GRZ8pZJmcwxbgSwuOB8H5AeAYQSgJCyUPkbkGoLRDqPYTaA6HOQFTqbARb5JtYXJJaVBlckliS2rgNRQjsnsz8vOLGZYbGpgaW5i1L3YtSU_MYljjllKayLgsoLSrISWVY4p6fk8IAAJJzJdzAAAAA"

My stats are:
AP> 703
CR> 1502
CD> 1017
ACC> 598
PIERCING> 1872

In a rotation with dummys I do around 11-12K and a guild friend with FIRE and 684AP do around 10-11K.

My usual rotation is Soul skill - C - V - LMB - RMB - Z - X - 2 (spam during cold snap) - 1 - F (dual dragon).
Then I repeat combo 2 - LMR - RMB - 2 until I have C - Z - X ready again.

Usually I play with 35ms but currently lag is harder and I'm playing with 70-90 (my friend too).

Any tip? Or I should change to FIRE again?

lyric bay
#

u should try to keep using lmb rmg 2, even during cold snap

#

based on how stable your ms is it may or may not work, but u should give it a try

light robin
#

currently 60-90 even with vpn, hard days in moonwater xD

lyric bay
#

for me its ~~33% more dmg with rt2 all the time

light robin
#

I'll do a try then, if ping let me

also obviously u want as much crit rate and dmg as possible

#

Some ppl said me better wait, but others that SS is a "dungeon SS" hard to improve and probably I could't do new dungeons at the beggining...

u can get to 2k cr without using any primers on your ss.

what you have in fm that worth 10+?

omg as FM im so allergic to FMs, they always have trash plays and boomed my stacks of ember for absolutely no reason and not reapplying the burn

and i cant cuz in CD

steep shoal

Yeah stinky fms using purple lmb

fickle glen
#

Anyone selling one of these? 🙏

static coral
#

To be fair on purple lmbs players, tons of fms can't even burn rotation correctly. Back when I had only greens, it was painful to see. So most of the time those 5 stacks are just there.

fallow abyss

also there is no time ranking so take ur time and see what kinda atks he does lightning ice or counter thats whats killing most i guess but for now im out on this game gl hf lol

what's more dps, fire or ice

tranquil prawn
#

That's when you compare all at purple grade

graceful hawk
#

Let rng decide your build, that's what I did

fickle glen
#

Its cheaper so you can stack it more, so you deal more damage than other specs with equal invesmtent

tranquil prawn
#

Blue is hard to say tbh. Never really compared with blue dragonchar

#

All i know is that all builds are kinda equal. I do say that dragonchar is better but that starts with stacking grandmaster

WTS NA, PM Offers

tawdry ingot
#

can any1 tell me if its worth to buy purple blazing palm on ice rain fm or is it better to stack divine gems and get purple ice rain?

fickle glen
#

just go for the one u enjoy most

#

both is similar

tawdry ingot
fickle glen
#

oh

tawdry ingot
fickle glen
#

increase from it is depends on how many fms u have in pt 🤔 I got like 3-4k increase from it when I'm alone

#

idk how much ice rain gives tho

#

palm is not good to stack, so it will fall harder than ice rain

#

I wouldn't pay 20k for any of them tbh 🤷‍♂️ just wait if you have enough dps for bsh

tawdry ingot
faint mortar
#

Beam definitely deals the least dmg at higher investment

#

But it’s also the easiest to build

zealous coyote
#

dragonchar does the most dps at purple?

median sonnet
faint mortar
#

it gains the least from book rarity, and it deals a lower percent of its builds damage which should mean that when you pump it with grandmaster it doesnt increase ur dps as much as the others

#

also it doesnt do as well at aoe since its the only single target one

near osprey
#

Blazing has the highest base damage. GM stacks increase the percentage damage; why should it gain the least?

faint mortar
#

how do you know it has the highest? yast doesnt show the value of boosts

near osprey
#

Talking about raw dmg numbers maximum boosting is for all 3 skills the same

faint mortar
#

you mean like percent increase of grandmaster?

#

also blazing has a higher base dmg relatively but you cast the other skills way more often

#

since blazing has a higher gcd timer

#

thats also why its badge gives the highest ap ratio increase

glacial pine
#

beam is single target, chars is aoe front of you and ice is aoe point and click. Play what you like, the 3 have almost the same dmg, playstyle are differents

median sonnet
#

you have to look at an actual rotation

#

and see the amount of beams

#

vs amount of chairs and rains

#

for the actual base dmg

faint mortar
#

ye ik i dont know the actualy ap ratio dps of each skill

#

but im basing this off of other people that hav said that the percent of their total dps that blazing beam contributes is lower than the percent contributed by other main skills

#

meaning if they all deal the same dmg early then the other skills will scale higher with grandmaster points

#

due to them increasing their total dps by a higher amount

median sonnet
#

but they dont do the same dmg

faint mortar
#

so then one is better lol

median sonnet
#

obviously one is better

#

its just the only factor is not % of dmg

faint mortar
#

and considering almost every whale is using ice rain

median sonnet
#

per main skill

#

the increase with like 5 purple books (which is not nothing) is 50%

glacial pine
median sonnet
#

for a build with a main skill having 75% of the dmg its a 37.5% dps increase, for a build with a main skill being 50% the dps increase is 25%

#

now dont get me wrong 37% is significantly bigger than 25%

#

but if the actual base dmg is diff

#

it can offset that

faint mortar
#

base dmg doesnt matter tho if their gcd timers are different

median sonnet
#

i mean base dps

#

and thats including other skills btw

faint mortar
#

people keep saying at like blues all of them deal the same dps

median sonnet
#

yea they just say that lol

#

its not exactly the same

#

i mean maybe they deal the exact same dmg

#

that would be impressive

#

but i doubt it

faint mortar
#

and i also highly doubt theyre the same

glacial pine
faint mortar
#

cus that would be wild considering no other build in the game is that close to each other

median sonnet
#

yea

#

i also have heard a lot of things

glacial pine
#

I tested the 3 specs to get an idea of ​​what I want to play

median sonnet
#

from people saying char build is weaker without gm, ice is weaker without gm, beam is weaker without gm

wide pumice
#

the strongest build is the one with HM Credit Card

tawdry ingot
fickle glen
median sonnet
#

yea thats true

#

does it even say that on the skill BRUH

fickle glen
#

but main issue between specs is the price, you can easily stack dragonchars while beam/rain is more expensive

median sonnet
#

yea but

#

price is based on the comunity

#

if a spec is better cuz of the price, ppl will flock to it, and itll stop being cheap

fickle glen
#

idk na but char prices are half of others

#

for a LOOOOOOOONG time

median sonnet
#

but yea

#

thats also a factor

faint mortar
#

meanwhile purple char has been so expensive forever

#

so cant even get it :(

main roost
#

beam does more damage than char but you cast 50-70% more chars than beams, so the damage breakdown favors char for gm stacking

#

beam with no gm points at blue book does ~53-55% of the total damage, but char does 60-70%

fickle glen
main roost
#

so you gain more from gm stacking with char

for the mini bosses (2 ladies) in bsh u need 16k ish rn

at 75-80% crate it feels really good

while talking with some guildmates, apparently 3800 critrate would be 50% so were very low currently if hes right

yea its 50% at 2500

#

at 3200 you should have 63%

plucky verge
median sonnet

with onrush

sharp grotto

ur critrate is inflated due to the card set.

card set gives like 10% extra

median sonnet

it depends

plucky verge

paid meter ? frogthink

median sonnet

at 56% actual crit rate, it gives 6%

#

to 63

plucky verge

yeah aint paying for some dps meter kek

median sonnet

and mantra can add another 6%

sharp grotto

i use focus mantras

oh right

#

crit rate against hae mujin is gonna be like 52%

sharp grotto
#

there is another rotation with blazing wall

#

but u need meteor mystic badge for that

#

and when blazing wall gets fixed

#

it will be better than using meteor

whats wrong with it

sharp grotto
#

ember explosion doesnt work

#

and it perma explodes ember

#

for 0 dmg

median sonnet

xdddd

sharp grotto

instead of exploding at 5 stacks only

nice

sharp grotto

it procs on every ember stack

median sonnet

fucks up palm too

sharp grotto

and deals no dmg

median sonnet

so you literally cant use it

sharp grotto

blazingwall gives 10% cdmg for 10-15s

median sonnet

which is like

#

nice i gues

sharp grotto
#

if ember explosion works

#

its good

#

purple blazing wall already does same or more dmg than purp fiendfire

its better than meteor for sure

sharp grotto

with meteor badge

wait what

sharp grotto

you mean dps overall right

not the skill

sharp grotto

u can add up to 3-5 detonates

into it

median sonnet

then its gonna be op af

only downside is

u have to paly melee

isnt it 5m

sharp grotto

2

its longer if you are targetting something

u shouldnt be the person to apply bleed

Oh so there cant be multiple bleed?

I thought there was

faint mortar

nope

last raptor

Id assume bleed doesnt count towarss ur dmg dealt

Or else it would inflate the dmg of the one that applies it lol

im not sure how dots work for dmg

last raptor

Well tenten with the bait videos said its a must

#

Same with the half assed poh and chef guides

it also doesnt deal much dmg mostly just slows healing

get some utility for the homies

faint mortar
#

sheath is pretty big

lyric bay
#

if this games future content is anything like in live. sheath will fall of big time

ppl will rather use hm block, because it doesnt prevent u from dps'ing

and in live there was only a handfull of "mechs" that require frost sheath

fervent pond
#

i mean in situations where it requires multiple party iframes yea sheathe is nice

#

would not write it off for sure

#

wish our kd wasn't so ass though

lyric bay
#

well yeah, but most mechs wont deal more than 3 hits

#

(baded on my memory of live)

fervent pond
#

idm using sheathe so hm block can be used for something else

lyric bay
#

to be fair, this game doesnt have the classic tanks, so there might not be a bm/bd in most parties

tawdry ingot
#

can any1 tell me if its better to have delays between 2rt as ice rain or just macro 2rt without any delays?

main roost
#

bleed reduces the regen of a boss

#

20% per stack

#

so it's not directly dealing damage, it's just stopping their passive regen which can be a big deal when you're close to enrage

#

deep wound is what reduces actual healing from mechanics

#

or in PvP, healing abilities

#

it's not really relevant in neo but in old bns it had some uses for bosses that healed, usually if you messed up a mechanic you could prevent some of the healing

it pierces parry so bm/des cant stop u

both

they will get frozen if they dont move away

no matter the hit count

there is mechs you need to use ice

for what we have so far though i think hm block works in place of ice

Does it work on steam

I’ve never seen anyone use it on steam

I’ve never seen anyone use it on mak sobo explosion either or taes dashes

hm block does work on steam

taes dashes yes as long as there's 5 ppl to take the separate hits

faint mortar

I’m being put out of a job

for steam ice is better cause hm block is used for the in/out thing

my pt uses stealth for the 5 hit tho

yeah you don't, my pt usually just tanks it

Since you don’t take enough dmg and she full heals you lol

# sharp grotto 9x ap x5

blazing wall is not bugged, it does do ONLY 9x ap over 5 seconds, it's doing so much damage like field fire because it's detonating every tick, purple blazing wall gives 5 ember stacks per tick = instant detonate every tick, while green version only gives 1 ember stack per tick and detonates slowly like normal

sharp grotto
#

if its 9ap over 5sec and it does proc 5 ember stacks each hit, that means it has 34x ap scaling?

sharp grotto
#

the way they coded it is trash then, it doesnt apply it properly

tacit shadow
#

So at 0 or 4 doesn't matter

sharp grotto
#

it should detonate at 5 and still apply the rest of stacks it should have applied

tacit shadow
#

As it applies 5 > detonate

tacit shadow
#

Like 4 ember + 5 is still 5 as its capped

#

It does it every tick

sharp grotto
#

i see then its just worded weirdly

tacit shadow
#

Kinda, you can try green and see it only do 2k > 10k+ on detonate

#

While purple does it every time due to giving max ember> prox each tick

#

Blue does it too as green to blue goes from 1ember per tick to 5

median sonnet
#

still cucks ur purple palm tho no?

if you have a purple beam to slot in its place mby

Like meteor eats a gcd and cost 2 focus so only gives 3 technically , and eats a book slot, so it's fine to use if blue stacking, but if full purples idk if its worth anymore
