WTB NA
I want the onlyfriends price
for ?
Good afternoon. Can you tell me which rack is better to use on the LSV? Which is better: lightning or wind?
if it's not difficult, please send me a rotation by wind. link. screenshot.
Unless you have a high end pc, sub 50ms + VPN, and god tier macro script, do not bother with lightning 😭
what is this narrative that you absolutely need macro for lightning 
U can play it without too but it will result in less dps regardless how well u play it
and you will develop carpal tunnel
1886h bns neo, lightning bd, no macro, no carpal tunnel
but a flask piano path of exile veteran here
how do you even get carpal tunnel... you hold f and click lmb
And can you do it faster then macroing?
of course not
but if you macro, do you play the game or the software does it for you?
WTB 2x EU
yeah i disagree, macro users usually do less
Or more like:
good manual player will do a lot more than average macro player.
But a good macro player can do a bit more than a good manual player
"can" be better "if" its a perfect macro
majority macro players ive seen use bad ones tho or domt even understand what its supposed to do
Also ping matters the most
can anyone share a lightning macro for me?
Even with macro, I still cannot swing this fast 😭 https://youtu.be/vSSp7QEa85k
just get a new house closer to the server
you say that but apparently, you can still match this with a perfect macro
but im too stupid to use scripts 😭

WTS leg wind sever pm offers EU
On market for 40k
WTB leg Lfcdr and storm cleave EU pm offers
Hi, can someone tell me what the golden wind sever does compared to the purple one and how the rotation changes for BD?
it makes your wind dragons soaring sky grant 3 seconds of wind charge
combined with the sacred mystic badge you get way more typhoons and wind dragons off overall
it also allows you to drop multislash entirely and you can pretty much hold X for mobility and V for an iframe and C is used situationally
Thanks, if it's not too much trouble, could you write a rotation with a golden button?
there really isnt a rotation for leg sever unless you stick to the rotation for purple sever which is suboptimal
WTB NA
Wtb x2

wtb legy windsever or whitewind NA
There should be a 40k wind sever on market 
no no no 🤭 next gamble event coming
Mmm okay 
das me
selling for 40k just wasting gold 😱
It is wut it is
8g is like 2 minutes in msp
im ab right now 🤫

Covering only Yeti for this dungeon. The first part of the video will showcase the mechanics, while the rest will show the full fight. Overall, an annoying boss to fight. Sometimes one mistake can lead you to be pinballed to death.
Yeti basic guide
I still cant grasp it. I go with a 3.9lf/s over 60 sec macro.
And someone with a good portion less stats and NO 10% CD card set can somewhat hit my dps . he is 48 48 lf sc and i am even 54 / 48 lf/sc.
Is there something i am missing?
better ping?
ping not relevant since he's already getting near max counts, so it would just be better uptime/ less downtime
Oh right 3.9/s
That’s fast ! Is there anything help to count it
Idk how much I’m but I don’t think I’m doing that fast 🤣
a software you can't use
wink wink
The other one is at 24 ms i am at 13
and he gapcloses me in dps like crazey. ~200 ap diff crit even 3k in rate and 1.2k in cd. and as i said i have even the 10% CD set
my FB goes out the second it comes up. i am currently tweaking
Devs should just combine lmb+f into one animation to save us the trouble of using this stuff 😔
Do BMs need perfect macros for lightning and puncture build?
Foshi, are you a BM hater?
No, I want to be a Lyn blade master
We get this weird 2-hit skill that can hit only once if you anicancel too fast
BM gets a more simplistic variant that also aoes
I dont understand why ppl say Lightning BD is a "good" class just because it puts out bigger numbers now When the design flaws of the class is still there.
A good class shouldnt need a fricken macro, vpn, cloudpc, making tweaks to client just to pump out optimal dps
Sometimes it's even better to wait a split second to ensure your badge is up.
Check how many FBs he did in the whole fight compared to you. If it's higher then he probably rotated his skills more optimally for better reverse ligtning uptime.
And lastly, he might have had better uptime of the 10x LF buff (idr what it's called)
No downtime on the stacks on my side.
And badge not noticable with legy lf cdr for me. or at least i dont see any visual difference :/
did you check fb counts?
dont have him in group. wanna test once he has time so we can group up
fb count could be smth. but i doubt that atm
are you meaning world boss? The % affinity damage on gear can make a difference
which dungeon was it?
Worldbosses. like all
Affinitys?
hes has 4% body/grit i 4% chi/destiny
So no buff for us?
Well they didnt rly buff any class right now just patchnotes but no changes so there is hope we get all buffs at the same time
they tried to buff BM again BUT FAILED 😂
whos selling this NA ?
Nobody selling lighting book 

i got 1 sc and 1 sf last night but i need wind 😝😝
Bound ones?
yeah 2 bounds in my inventory now just need to wait for class change
light bd im coming
I have 1 stormcleave left over on eu 
If anyone wants to buy it just pm a good offer otherwise its just paper scapes
Anyone use Razer Synapse for lightning BD macro?
razer synapse is unreliable, cant use for lightning
timings will be off by anywhere between 40 and 150ms
true
bro thats more than my main
just hit 67 yesterday
its a pain
to lv up another
man
sum def reduction is broken
i hit on my 67 alt up to 800k fb

i think i am somewhat done with my cardsets
only could exchange unweavering conviction for the four guardians to get back extra 135 drain
technically i only miss iksanun for the set

WTB class change ticket i want to switch to light bd
*Macro BD 
I wish I was smart enough to use them 😭
light bd ?
Mhm
Playing manual in NEO feels so clunky compared to Live idk why
in the future i saw they have ingame macro
reply me 🤭
there is no way with 1 legendary frag my first book

Purple flash effect is cool

Do you still have the epilepitc FOV thing on each legi lf cast ?
Yes
ff
And now.. the chase begins 
NCsoft b like.. "we got em"
anyone selling 1 more windsever 😭😭get ready for my light bd 🤭
why using rush ?
boss 2 bt
Yup
ahh ahh this shty system 🙁 before we have stun daze 🙁
hmm thinking about it, may be possible to wait until the incoming boss is at your boss before kding, and then get hit by the getup and tab escape to daze cc the incoming boss
🧠
unsure if the getup will knock you far enough back though, it might not
hmm it does work
think i had the oppotunity once but did it too early
only realized after tab it could have worked out
Is Leggo Storm cleave worth spamming or should it be 100% fatal blade?
Anyone has the "perfect" hit count for lf, epc/flicker and fb in a minute?
2 out of 3 attempts not to bad
Isn’t it 4 f/s the best count?
that's without fb
And with?
Do you have 48/18? or 48/30?
72/18
Pls don’t
please yes
we will make u win

then i wanna see a 20 min speech on a livestream

uhm anyone knows the % of stacking 1 thunder jade? 🥺 And why it has global cooldown
its the new skill from raid
"global cooldown" here is not referring to the cooldown applied to your party members
what should be the ideal ratio b/w typhoon/sever/dragon with sf badges
Not really a metric I kept an eye on tbh
But this number also changes with legendary
Do we know the cooldown and proc chance of "Tenacity" in bonds?
Since Detect is nerfed so hard i am considering changing my outrageous fist for the overcoming the past set.
Would it be useful in Lunar?
nah its like 10sec + atleast
Hello, friends
Balance patch hits. How insane is lightning BD in dps and ease of access? Considering full book stack and leggy full card sets
woooooo u change to light bd ?
Considering it. Either wind kfm or lightning bd
patch wherere ??
Wind bd buff when
when we weak enough 😂
Probably on the 20th
WTB leggy fcdr, sc EU
Does anyone have a video of this skill?
its an auto cast whenever you reach 5 stacks, not a skill
Ah i see thanks!
WTS leggy wind sever EU
Pls continue funding me for more experiments 🧪
What’s ur ping when taking the video?
Foshi The Lucky.🥳
50ms
Anyone can send video how it work the buff GM 18 30 48 from White wind: Wind Charge thx, but i dont understand i have 18 GM and i cant see any change(
you have 1 gold and 1 purple white wind right?
Yes
Yes

how much dps did you hold there?
alright, not as bad as expected
when they buff it youll be popping
90% was Sunder / 10% was FB and the rest
ill want to drop more SC for Sunder to get more dps
ye
3mins 30secs 16 fatals
sc and fb only means to extend the badge
so i only need 6 skills including lego storm cleave to get 210gm Sunder
downside: not aoe
Anyone can send video how it work the buff GM 18 30 48 from White wind: Wind Charge thx, but i dont understand i have 18 GM and i cant see any change(
u V and u got 1 F instantly right
thats what u got
i think this is the first time im actually proud of you
u need 3 wind spirit for 1 typhoon
in stance u need 1 wind spirit for 1 typhoon
with gm stacks on V u just get more wind spirit + the stance, so u can basically spam F like crazy for typhoons
or ur already in badge effect, press V and get like instant dragon cast
not sure if its a dps gain, but rotation feels better than without
you get extra stacks towards next wind dragon
the extra typhoon is just from legendary, gm points are only for stacks towards wind dragon
I hope Sunder gets fixed/buffed tomorrow so i can reroll
it doesn't
I can only
@rancid tiger got my issue to them on time
not tomorrow, and not ever
its probably something like the 12gm only applies to books with gm enhancement effects
i tried to trick the bug by stacking a blue book but it only went up to 38gm 😭
bruv
look at this
he foolin us
😭
No understand and nothing working nothing effect from this extra stack!
With 18 GM without 18 GM same effect dear NCSoft
In fact, as you explained, without 1 additional Typhon, I have to launch 12 Typhons to hit Wind Dragon, with 18 GM and 1 additional used Typhon, I only have to hit 6 times to get 12 stacks of Wind Dragon, and so on!!??? Well, in fact, I don’t see any changes!
If you hit 12 times, the effect stacks. It doesn't work as intended, and it just took up space for a skill box. This is already standard for NCSoft.
the additional typhoon is only when casting v, but yes if you have sacred mystic badge then there is no difference
Thx for open my eyes, now i understanding what when i dint have sacred bagde the gm buff nothing have effect, for now this book is trash
there is
as i said
u just use it either as opener
cuz nothing gets u faster into the badge state
or while in badge u use it and instantly get a dragon
its also added on top of ur current stacks
so either u can insta cast dragon
or u have perma typhoon until u hit dragon
is that worth it dropping potentially 2 wind severs? idk
but it feels good
oh wow purple sever looks so cool
i think this is a case of:
technically there is a different before your first sky dragon in the fight.
after that there literally is no difference because 1 extra stack isnt enough of a difference to cut out one typhoon for a faster sky dragon
U get 6 stacks
And its doubled in badge
@placid turtle any plans to take top1 on WB from Valira after buff patch?
filthy wind users, yuck
Tomorrow we will rejoice
Well lighting loses crit advantage on wb
Wb isnt really a good ranking for dps comparison
okey, but the AP ratios change, right? lightning gets a higher boost than wind?
Not at 18gm…
What does wind get for crit?
they have almost the same crit rate just by wb being treated as low lv
why would anyone go for 18 gm except for testing how it works?
That guy had 18 gm and was asking tho?

bc people dont understand their class / spec i assume
why even go for it with purple skills
hes straight up griefing himself
i dont even know if its worth running 3x legy white wind for that
I assume it is once you have like 170+ gm
Since at that point each extra gm is so little
How important is White Wind for wind bd?
Not sure. I’m lighting from born
you cant go 120/120 without giving up hmb and thats illegal
i think the highest i saw a gigawhale wind bd on KR was 192 GM
we have 18 books and we need raid, HMB, Z and C
120/120 should be fine dont have to have tab block though
after that going from 192 gm -> 210 gm is literally 183.6% -> 189% which is so small
leg vs purple? qol
unless give me ur book 
just hit /s
you need lmb too
lmb for what
otherwise you'll run out of focus, and unlike green/purple flicker you dont keep a focus on crit.
you want to use this?!
vs this
lmb is still a good chunk of our dps
oh yeah i forgot that

then take off raid hahah
thats trolling tho
low cd gap close, focus regen, bleed, draw stance
definitely doing work
Leg
yeah, going from purple to leg white wind is qol
its mainly to get you those GM stacks easier if im being honest
its for sure an improvement................ but barely
But like, what does it provide besides the iframe
So just 3 typhoons?
I was thinking how sc would work by extending the mystic badge
unfortunately we cant refresh mystic badge if its already applied
so you get extra cucked if you use fatal/sc on last second of badge
Already am 😔
I remember when lightning flash dealt bleed
And flicker was aoe
Good times
what mantras are you guys gonna run now
We have new mantra sets?
we can open up to 4 slots now
which means you can max out crit/cdmg with just 4 accessories instead of 6
its less mantra stones needed too
so 2x of them crit, 2x of them cdmg, 2x of them the 5% add dmg, 1x of them focus regen?
Whatever I can afford 😂
ofc ;p
Take Threat and steal aggro from trolls
but i don't need threat to keep you from trolling
Valira is eqipped that way, runnong only 30 GM white wind
I am the hmb slave and thus ill be around a bit less stacks with utility skills and 42GM white wind
Didnt caöculate my max gm for wind sever yer
damn
what changed for you
its 48gm now and not 36gm
@forest hatch sitting at 174GM wind sever and 48GM white wind now
Did we got the balance class update?
Yes we have it now
Lightning bd is stronger now
🥹🥹
So wasn’t it in kr that you could change book from the same class to another ?
if i have 1 hong and 1 jinsoyun only, which card set(s) should i get? their 2set or use them separately in different sets?
WTB NA lego LFC/SC pls
buy my purples 😄
get ready ab 8 legend frags if you lucky 🤭
Back in live we were able to bind certain skills to different key. Wonder if that’s still possible 
ehh ty
Can’t you just buy fm books and convert
Then unbond book become bond that’s stupid
not really much of an issue for bd mains…
Wow the animation of leggy fatal blade looks so nice
got mine a moment ago
same thing, had leg lfcd
maybe top 20 on WB
have you seen how cool is fatal blade_
didn't notice tbh
So, guys... If I switch to light bd, which leggy skill should I have first? Storm Cleave or LFlash CDR?
Can u help me? <~< XD
lf flash
ty ❤️
I may be wrong but lf flash is the real game changer
at 48 gm the crit stacks and damage boost on every skills is insane
this
But keep in mind that a good ping is needed
yeah, im at 10-12ms XD
XDD I was wind bd before <-< then switched to dl and now with the leggy book back to bd XD
Light bd is fun
Didn’t liked dl?
sadly not my best choice so far... XD Kinda slow for me. Yeah, on live I was light bd for +-2 yrs! But now I feel like a newbie. Hahaha
Yeah it’s too slow if you played bd before
Yeah.. D:
So... I selected lf cdr leggy, for epic... Is 1 storm cleave enough?
Or should I stack more of it?
gdamn, I feel like I need a build guide.. Hahaha
gold cleave is not much different than purple cleave most of ur dmg is from lightning flash
stacking cleave is best for when u want to farm lunar meadow
bc its the only aoe lightning has
Aight! And soulbadge prob lf right?
btw guys, the weird screen flicker when using lfcd... is this a bug?
So, I can convert 10 more epic books <.<
I selected 1 leggy (lf cdr) so far
it's annoying af
welcome to legend LF
:/
So, which 10 epic skills should I pick before switching? <-< (with 1 leggy lf in mind XD)
wtf?
aight gimme a sec XD
so base is 12 with leggy?
next epic should be 18 then
or is base 18 on leggy? XD
aight, so im right perfect
any1 looking for a leggo LF? 40k 
which books should i get if im class swapping to lightning BD? i have 1 legendary and 12 purples
yeah it made me physically ill, first time i tried leg flash i threw up. no way to disable it through legitimate means either
actually insane
im assuming the effect gets more severe the higher your game resolution is, similar to how shadow distance scaling is worse the higher your resolution is
WTS DM offer
Anyone else have issues where flicker doesn't want to go off sometimes?
guys, for real, how do you play with that screen flickering during lfcd
Blink in that exact moment problem solved
got used to it after a while
@forest hatch nvm
Lightning buffs force me to drop white wind
Its garbage
Time to go 282GM
Hi! i'm thinking of switching to bd, i'm thinking of lightning (10-20ms). I've got 2 leggys and rest all purple. should i split the leggy between lfcd and cleave or, stack on lfcd and get a purple on cleave?
leg lfcd 48 stacks + leg storm cleave
purple flaming scourge -> fatal blade > charged stroke -> f lmb f lmb .... fatal blade f lmb f lmb ... fatal blade
ah okay, thanks!
You will get used to it, i don’t notice it anymore
Anicancel lmb +f is what you wanna learn
I’m thinking of dropping X but idk it’s good to have another skills that put in stance and close the gap
Buff X and C when
changed "display my effects" in options from 5 to 0, it helped a bit
The thing is i wanna see the good effects 🤣
like what
You get used to it
the thing is, if you're not using it off cd then you're wasting a book slot
so you effectively lose a gap closer by running thunder slash
Yeah i don't use it often, just when i'm out of stance
yeah so its just a waste of a slot then
dang, how much do you hold on WB?
around 750 depends on cc
amazing
How is the rank on NA?
rank 13 forever 😭
Who is the first?
Wumimi
Cavok is top 5 i guess?
sometimes
Is sukuna still playing?
i saw him signed on the other day

Not my fault devs left it in
now share it 
that guy's a kfm now 😆
wow
What do you need ? and which spec?
i havent really played BD ever. I just need an overview I guess for now, and a reason to choose Light vs Wind 🙂
Wind: easier to master, ping friendly, 1 leggy to shine becouse only one skil matter to stack. High dps
Lightning: More fun and dynamic, not ping friendly, need animation cancel for the lmb + f combo, 2 books to stacks but even with stacking only lightning flash is good to go. Recently boosted and has high dps.
lovely
You should probably see some videos to see which one you like more
Does lightning BD need good Ping?
and good macro
almost all the old live builds need good ping
bd light need good ping or is a huge dps loss
me 2 i need one for 45 ping
Mine would explode pc 
HOW?
Is an ahk script?
perhaps
Guys which one should go 1st
I need some help
personally i like the 1245 life drain
Im playing on 30 ping, got lmb sleep 10 f sleep 250 loop and sometimes it messes up, maybe it would work for u
bro 1245 lifesteal and 15% crit damage sound BROKEN
do u not have mortal enemies
Wait for others too but 1,2k lifesteal and 15% cdm is better then the other 2
Should I rather look for more hp or more defense or is it ok as it is? I have 90k hp and 6k defense (lvl 58 wind BD). Or should I look for different defensive stat?
Generally we don’t build defenses
We focus on trying not to getting hit in the first place
Or using our iframes
Ok, ty for advice.
time to drop z for guardian 
exceptions always exist
"ohh my lobster is too buttery and my steak is too juicy"
u scale off defense
but there arent really stats u would drop for defense
the only thing i could think about is getting AP DEF for yellow insignias instead of AP HP
but tbh, the Defense gain from that is what fkin ever
and HP is just way more useful than the minor amount of dmg reduction and dmg u would get from it
u basically get all the defense u want from stacking ur books
and dont forget about diminishing returns on stats, i know that crit rate has diminishing returns. i dont know about other stats, but this game doesnt even let us find out cuz u will be running double crit everywhere u can
some accuracy exceptions obv
and as Konbo said, u have 4 iframes, just use them, there should barely ever be the scenario that u just die from getting too many hits
Ty for the detailed answer. The last note is reassuring 🙂
How do the both specs compare to each other? Is one significantly stronger like for some classes or are they mostly evenly matched in endgame like BT or dawncrest dungeons?
What would be ideal builds for both? More like which purple skills are essential for both and for light do you evenly stack LF and Stormblade?
lightning is better this patch but you need 2 leg books to get it started
I have around 15ms ping. Should be good enough
What would an endgame build look like?
14 leg books, purple electric piercer connection, raid, flaming scourge and maybe hmb
what should be the split between lightning flash and sotmr cleave ?
more Flash when they are giving equal gm %
lightning was better last patch already, got buffed even more now.
basically due to GM stacks u have a free 100% crit rate on any boss, meaning u can stack up crit dmg % on cardsets like crazy
if u dont have the crit rate, u cannot trigger the bonus effect from GM stacks (basically u need to crit in order for the build to work optimal)
once u have the gear, u will most probably tank
about the stacking i dont really know, i didnt do the calculations. but u should stack mor LF than SC
for endgame lightning is ultimately better rn, dont know if they will ever buff wind to be equal again
the only advantage wind has rn, is that you should never run into focus issues. the build is fully functional on purple books and doesnt depend on crits. wind has better aoe over all, making msp way smoother
the wind skills also give u some quality of life, it just becomes insanely hard to execute properly when u get legendary wind sever
and yeah u can run bleed and hmb on both specs, both specs have 2 KDs, both can have decent parry skills to tank, even tho i think that its a bit harder for lightning to tank than for wind
Thank you for the detailed info. I have a question about wind. Why does become hard to play optimal on legy wind sever? Because soaring dragon gives 3 wind charge?
And what other skills do i need on endgame build that generate wind charge? Saw one who only used Whirling Scourge, Skyward slash and white wind for total of 18s of wind charge and the lowest cd among them is 30s. Is the additional 3s from soaring dragon enough to have wind charge up 24/7?
I'm currently destro and think to switch with 5-6 legy skills so i could build endgame
im playing only wind sever, whirling scourge, skyward slash and white wind
and thats enough to keep up stance 24/7 on bosses
on somme bosses i drop V or X, if i need to swap in a utility skill and the boss is mobile
cuz on a training dummy only 2 stance skills would be enough to be in stance 24/7
it just became very hard to play on legendary, because on every dragon u are set to 3 seconds of stance. for example, if u hit a dragon and u had 4 seconds of stance left, nothing happens. if u have below 3 seconds, it just gets set to 3 seconds. if u have sacred (SF) mystic badge, that basically means u are permanently in stance cuz every rolling typhoon counts as 2 towards stacking dragon. while in badge u get a dragon every 3 seconds, refreshing ur stance.
it become complicated when ur badge is about to run out, and u have to use ur stance skills, looking at the current situation and choosing the best one. but also having stacked up wind spirits before, so u can do 3 typhoons instantly on any stance skill
also u wanna sometimes hold ur dragon. for example ur dragon is ready but badge is running out in 1 second, u can hold it till badge is gone and then hit dragon to instantly reapply badge effect for 12 sec
keeping track of all these buffs and numbers while also dodging boss skills or doing mechanics makes it very complicated, because if u dont do all that u wont even reach the dmg of a budget light BD
What is better inside wind charge buff? RMB RMB RMB FFF or RMB F RMB F RMB F? Or is there no nitceable difference between both?
well
its always best to use the skill that is available rn
dragon > RT > wind sever
except ur badge is running out in 1 sec and u have a dragon ready
then ud rather wind sever in those seconds
if u switch to BD id say lightning is better anywhere with current gear, except for msp maybe
but id say dungeons are more important than having a bit faster msp clearspeed
i just stayed wind cuz i played lightning in the beginning and i got too frustrated not critting. now i wouldnt have that problem, but i played wind for so long and i still love every second of it, i think i would have less fun
Played destro for almost 8-9 years by now and neo version is vastly different and in endgame lacks crit a lot to feel smooth. DL has the same issue i assume in endgame with crit. Only BD feels crit independent in its basic rotation and light has nice crit rate buff due to gm stacks
Sounds like destro with execute 😉
Same if you dont crit
Z give 20 stacks
I know i know
but they are gone so fast that i still have cd on z
cuz it's like Z V and spot gone
next spot Z on cd so i have to stack manually
lightning bd still has it if you cancel f too fast you cancel the 2nd hit ?
yes
what. "macro"? thats not forbidden 
due to ToS
it is
would people get banned for it? no cuz theyd lose 99% of server population
Is it realistic to play light bd few hours a day with good anicancel without macro?
you'll constantly have your inconsistent framerates and ping working against you
unless you already have good hardware and exitlag
ofc, the more you practice, the better you will get
it makes it easier to rebind F to a mouse key however
I am considering switchin to DL or BD, so I came to this channel to ask you folks if you have any arguments that can help me decide
Raw damage numbers dont interest me as much as being fluid to play, smooth button prompts, iframes, short-CD gap closers, etc.
What say you, BD masters? (and which spec)
iframe are the standard melee Q,E,SS with party wide HMB
gap closers are 2 and X which you can use skill books to reduce cd or alter their effects
wind is about generating wind spirits to use rolling typhoon and maintaining wind charge so typhoon cost 1 spirit instead of 3
its big aoe spec great for gold farming in msp your focus is on stacking RMB skill and only that at endgame i see people with Z C and hmb and the 15 rmbs
lighting is about staying in draw stance using lmb f anicancel (not too fast or you loose 2nd half of F skill) and reducing fatal blades cooldown.
stacking F and V(fatal blade)
i feel like lightings flash isnt smooth as it doesnt seem to last as long as
sins lightning crash/lighting pierce prompts
wind would be perfect if he wants nice gameplay
but he has to let go of that "pressing buttons" mentality

no focus issues, no target isses, not crit reliant
so far i havent encountered focus isssues on lightning BD compared to heartstab sin
I am coming FROM heartstab Sin, so this rings true
what you are hinting at, is that Wind BD is "too smooth", perhaps?
Got a question i am teying to get my macro timings right and i am wondering how many lighting flashs per second and ration between lmb and f should be ?
4 lf/s, 2 lf/lmb
but if you're gonna parse make sure you do only lf lmb, and to have <48 gm stacks
oh and without soul badge
Can anyone put their finger on a number about by how much is light dps higher then wind
My power is around 23k if that matters, and i am trying to decide between the two specs
I like wind playstyle more, but what is the damage diff
purely by ap ratios its 8%, the crit difference is harder to calculate because if you have every cdmg% bond set you lose more from not critting than someone with no cdmg% bonds
so difference would be another 20-30% depending on how many jinsoyun cards you have, assuming you are running snake or arena dungeons
but also just play what you want, eventually ncsoft buffs everything (unless it's shockwave)
Why less then 48 gm ?
to see correct amount of hits you have done, once you hit 10 lfs, they start appearing three times in logs due to additional dmg effect
and with soul badge the same, it logs additional hit
you could technically do it with normal gear and then substract all extra hits but that's additional unnecessary work
what books on WInd, after 48 Wind Sever, and the minimum purple Z X V (+C + 2)
Full wind sever
noob question, i can go above 48?
sure
some people have 200+
it simply gives less % dmg per 1gm the more gm stacks you get
I need to follow the 6s cooldown of Wind Charge but it's constantly jumping left and right on the buff bar, as other small things are added to it
is there any way to make this less difficult to track x)
WTB> BD Stuff NA - PM offer
What i usually do is track the yellow swirl top right of your character that appears while its active
For purple sever
2/z/x/c/v/tab
Allows for 100% uptime on wind surge
Personally I just remembered how many typhoons you could do per skill cast (based on your ping ofc)
Tab isnt needed but i told him to get it for the beginning as he just starts learning it
Was a nice utility skill but barely ever needed even as tank
WTB> - BD Stuff NA - PMO of what you got
WTS - WS leggy NA
It boosts actual dps even if it doesn’t boost your dummy dps
You can greed way more
And get rewarded for it
Your uptime is overall better
And it even gives movement speed for mechs
Yeah not needed at leg sever for sure, but at purple it really helps
an uptime of 100% cant be improved
on purple sever u dont need it for stance either
Idk how u can greed more with strafe left
Its just quality of life
I havent encountered a single boss so far where parry was needed to keep him facing one direction
U can also use SS
Keeping the boss facing one direction is just being a better tank
not needed ofc, but don’t you want to strive to be better?
More comfy for your party too
Standards are so low in Neo smh
And if it’s on cd? Or you need to move less than 8m? There’s a reason why movement speed is so valuable and you can’t just waive it off as “just SS”
Sure let me take out my wind sever stacks and let me put in utility so i dont do enough dmg to even hold aggro after patch
XD
sure if ur already full gold line
With 4 mantra slots
Maxed legy mantras wirh crit
So u have space for threat
I havent seen anyone at that point yet
U have movement speed buff on legy ws and a crazy movement speed buff for 60 seconds on legy V
Basic tab already prevents most cc of boss moves
If you’re implying wind doesn’t do good dps then idk what to tell you.. certainly it’s not top, but it’s certainly not trash tier like summoner for example
Yeah standards are really low kekw thats why i made a guide and tried to help every wind bd and all they did was ignoring it, they just wanted to know macro timings. Now they still all suck and dont do dmg cuz they cant minmax the spec
Aren’t we talking about purple tier… why are we talking about leg skills
If u only knew what a capable summoner could do 
Thats literally the standard now and vaevictus even has legy or is close to it (i gave him full guide how to switch books but he fcked up the class change)
Also even on purple skills the was no utility needed. Maybe HMB if ur party sucked or bleed if u lacked dps
Ppl nowdays dont even know their build
They just copy
Ive seen bd‘s with hmb that play for 1 year and still never use it
Or thunderstorm and never bleed
They just copy my build or valiras
Not even thinking why we do certain stuff
Wtf you should always run Hmb
Disgusting if you don’t
The moment i got called to help out for lair cuz the other top 10 WB BD cant hmb properly showed me the true skill level
Even after 1 year
I dont anymore
Wtf
Since class „balancing“ i took it out

Its barely ever needed, and for raid u gonna swap several GM stacks for utility anyways
I still going to shame every bd that doesn’t slot in hmb. Give up the GM stacks. Figure out your dps without them. Gain stats/dps elsewhere
Not having thunderstorm is at least excusable, though I kept it on because I pugged 24/7
thunderstorm is excusable?
tf u mean
why would u need to excuse urself for providing bleed
Not having it I mean
i dont mind u shaming other BDs tho
i shame 99% of BDs
for the amount of time theyve spent on the class
and still know 1%
For me wind is one of those specs that dont need macro
show me ur counts
xd
i am not wind i have alt wind but its only purple gear and desert mystic
but i am rmb rmb rmb fff
i can get 9 fs in a 6s wind charge
more if i proc the 12th hit
go FFF RMB
9 fs in 6 seconds is really low
either u should end up at 11 stacks for dragon when ur stance runs out on a regular stance skill
or u should be spamming dragons already the moment u press Z
on sacred mystic badge u lose the extra stacks on Z but u still gonna be in dragon (badge) fast af
i havent spent much time with wind
i am still working on improving my lightning macro currently its at 3.5fs per second
also depends on your ping, if its low u should reach 4 LF per sec
i am around 16ms
then u should reach 4 or at least get really close
or be a chad and play manual
yeah working on it but i dont play much maybe 1 to 2 hours
so hard to find time to focus on it
if you have tips on how to play manual better i am all ears 😄
its just practice honestly
once you get the feel for anicancel timing it becomes automatic anyhow
the only tip i could give is to rebind LF to mouse key
Agreed
Though I still go rmb F.
11-12 in 6s depending on my ping for the day (65-75)
Is it better 60/42 or 54/48? @cold talon
yeti or lower 60/42
lair or higher 54/48
mostly only matters if you make a mistake leading to flash stacks falling off and needing to get back into draw stance
Thank you!🙏
I want to run 48SC and the rest LF. Would it be strong?
I’d lose a lot of burst but I love the idea of just machine gunning with LF
This is literally what I am running
My burst was slightly lower but my overall dps was better
i want the focus recovery
Is this the how Lightning BD looks, if I have 1 Leg, and all purple?
ignore the Blue 2 (Riad) and F , that's not really needed i guess
Not sure about TAB havent played Light BD, so any comments welcome
if you can have 1 leg then you go for LF, tab is unnecessary, so is 3
x is not that unnecessary
considering he is playing light for first time
he can min max stacks later when used to playing it
X and C feels really nice to use though, especially after using hmb
what an old screenshot
its also an impossible configuration for only 1 leg
such GMs with only 1 leg book needs 20 books
and i bet this was made before the GM changes anyways, so prob took even more books
with keeping that in mind, if I were you I'd prob go with this
(ignore strafe left vs rotary blade, thats just personal preference)
y, it's from the now locked Megathread. We used to have guides pinned into threads...
thanks for this
okay, next question, any tips for Naksun on BD? ( I dont mean the phases, I know what he does from playing other chars)
Do I need to spec parry on Tab... I don't see how to avoid all attacks otherwise with just iframes...
remove tab, add bladeguard
you never want to tab as light
unless hmb ofc
and it will help you with naksun
I loved so much to use bladeguard on every yellow
Thanks to the gm stacks i had to remove it
I am currently WInd, my questions earlier for me pondering to switch maybe
so as Wind I have it Bladeguard removed
feel you, I just kept it, I prefer enjoyment over min maxing gm
disable blitzblade as well
and take flight
wait youre wind
here's what I'd consider the barebones. Add or remove as you see fit
technically not needed, bladeguard first 2 hit
e the second 1 hit
repeat
even if you dont have bladeguard book you can use it to parry
i personally like having parry tab (either rotary blade or strafe left works) in general as spammable no cd parry
you can also purposefully parry spin into naksun and get a free stun off him
if youre struggling with naksun
oh god,,, i cant even make a naksun tutorial with all my gear taken off
dies too fast
yeah, nerfed into the ground
I hate this fight.
Some tips:
Don't be like me, put on parry spin book.
You will always drop draw stance around a minute into the fight. Play around it, save fatal blade to iframe the dash instead of bladeguard, Q/E do not work.
best you're gonna get from me unfortunately
one other thing you can do is flash into q/e instead of spinning into counters
immunity x during ice phase is the only good way to deal with it
otherwise its pure rng
this one should show the timing for manipulating his attacks a bit better
Cavok too op
since you can outright avoid his attacks by walking behind at the right time
which type to take for wind BD for now?
afaik, at Sacred they become 1 anyway, but for now?
the right one
wind bd has infinite focus and would never use flash step anyways
Aoe lf and infinite focus flicker when
Thought i have 1 question to the devs
Why the F is lmb and f 5m but fatal only 3m range
glad they're both 5m in NEO but yeah in Live it makes zero sense
Wind Sever 5m yet Typhoon 8m
what i would also like to see is Sc and Fb usable at 5m
Fb actually pulls u in to 1.3m distance to target
yeah i find that super annoying
A 5m gap closer would be fine. A 5m frontal aoe would be even better
And some move speed pls
Would be enough if u could still move while fb
removed thunder slash, charged stroke and whirlwind from my build, feels weird after so many months
Just none target
This
WTS eu pmo
u sure u dont wanna make a 3rd full leggy alt
Watame should play on both at same time and get 1st and 2nd place on wb
Valira in shambles
hello, I play wind and I have 3 leggies, I got white wind from a random chest and was wondering is it better to spec 1 white wind and 2 wind severs or just do 3 wind severs instead
WTB> Full BD Accessories - NA - PMO
WTS NA
Does BD scale with any other stat...? The way BM scales off Block?
How much accuracy/piercing is enough?
not in a meaningful way
you get enough accuracy from levels that you only need accuracy while leveling, so if you hit accuracy on accessories or psyches you can just keep it until level 75 or so
yes
at 77 5k accuracy is enough even for raven king
so for anything you would be running at 76 you don't need any additional accuracy at all on bd
our base accuracy is very high
NA WTS
oh BD new leg skill
Wind Bd?
It didn’t say if lighting one has a cd
Like BD’s stone slash
102gm of lighting flash + 66 gm of SC + 48 of the new skill then
It has to have a cd it's just the usual NC forgetting to write stuff, it generates 20 stacks and resets FB's cd they won't let you just spam both
Now we just need leggo x
Give us 3 slot for book on weapon too
reseting fatal blade is big burst
ZVCV
Is leggo C charged stroke?
its going to be so broken in 6v6, being able to bonk someone twice while their tab is down 😂
and thats assuming C isn't going to hit like a truck
will the c still give buff?
ngl this might be for the weirdos that play shockwave @wheat atlas
cause m pretty sure shockwave stack surge fast af 
im not weird 
it should be leg C, so it should be whatever we have + more.
charged stroke must have in 6v6
For wind it might be worth getting 30 or 48 stacks as it gives 5-10% crit rate for 12sec and already have 156+ wind sever gm points. For lightning one seems nice to have but difficult to sacrifice GM points from LFCDR to get 48 points
might be worth going 48lfcd and all in sc burst bd now 
It was thinking the same actually.
Especially for higher ping players . It could benefit them
unless you're playing flicker and selling your soul for the focus timestream weapon, only exception to going full lfcd it seems
Let s see. I hope that they will add gm points on items like they did with soul core and ways to stack GM points with something else than books. But it is ncsoft
soul core is skill points not gm
you can got 102/102 48 gms in f,v,c and still have Z,2,lmb
or
84/84 30 with 48 into super burst skill thunder
Damn I thought it was GM . So no build flexibility for the foreseeable future
Hi i just crafted my 3rd leggy skill and was wondering if its better for dps to put on lfcr or cleave, both are 48 currently with 1 leggy each and rest purple
lf
ty
lf all the way
if in doubt, go shockwave
how much worse is flicker compared to piercer ?
flicker is 10x better than piercer but u have to manage focus
best for boss
piercer better for MSP
And 100x better if you also have Focus True Timestream
For me flicker is an dps loss
how 
Fb enjoyer
If you play flicker you only want to go 48SC
flicker is raid/party dps gain but personal loss
if your party needs bleed you put on flicker
but how tho ure not using the 45% ap of ur badge if ure on piercer
because we dont run gm points on lmb
We dont run gm points on piercer either 
correct that is why an extra .45ap on a skill that isnt scaling is functionally worthless

you are dropping 1 fatal per minute for .45 ap on a max of 120 hits per minute
1 fatal is about 178ap
the lower your sc stacks are,. the less you lose from flicker but it is never a gain
the base mod dif is only an additional .275
so .725 * 120 = 87, so you are losing at minimum 100ap/min

math assumes 100gm stacks
ye
Say less i will melt these wind sever
3 a meme 2 is tbd
Idk man that 10% crit dmg kinda fat
its not
O rlly
we have so much cdmg that 10% is nothing
yeah 10% crit dmg for 7s is not much when main gain is the reset of V which is at 30
😔

wtb trash leg skills pm me
buff bd, bd weak
WTS NA
i wish lightning flash had this aoe 😄
send it to support
believe me, they do listen 
we needddd that movespeed too
hello guys, Is the difference in dps between lightning and wind very big?
Generally lighting is stronger now. But then it depends what you want to do and how much you are willing to spend . As DPS is not only related on books . If you are new and lower geared then with wind build ,is easier to become decent. As you can have 1 leg wind sever and the needed purple books and you farm much easier on msp ,SF dungeons.
Also Lighting BD needs low ping ,good macro and can benefit more from whale portraits sets. So on high end it is getting even better. Then still on WB there are a few high geared wind BDs but the majority are lighting BDs with 100+ GM stacks on LFCDR and SC
Wind only gets close to lightning BD if both can have 100% critrate on the same target + wind is ultimately better for msp
Current WB, lightning is way stronger, end of discussion
true
ayyy all the blade dancers whats up
