They should still buff air weapons more 👍

earnest junco
#

Guardian's dmg isnt that bad

visual gyro
#

yeah when you use 3x lapis

earnest junco
#

Apoc usually beats alka

earnest junco
visual gyro
#

ive seen 3x lapis builds with less than 20k uppers 💀

#

there are some with good damage

#

i have seen

#

but there are also a lot that are hot garbage

earnest junco
visual gyro
#

of course its -intel

earnest junco
#

Pretty good dmg for that ehpr + ehp

visual gyro
#

ok but thats still very little damage

earnest junco
#

High str dex lead to a high boost from endu courage

visual gyro
#

could be said about any other weapon

earnest junco
#

20.5k upper with endu, 27.4k with endu courage

earnest junco
visual gyro
#

thrundacrack gets that damage unboosted

earnest junco
visual gyro
#

i know but this is about damage

#

i think hero surpasses this too

earnest junco
earnest junco
#

Hero is by far the strongest weapon when it comes to tanky builds

visual gyro
#

i really do not like this new layout

earnest junco
#

18.9k / 27.9k upper
Dodge / dodge courage

#
  • ssac or bash buff (which can reliably be used since you can cancel accidently warscream casts with ssac)
visual gyro
#

ok now look at one with intel

earnest junco
earnest junco
visual gyro
#

yeah but 12,2k unboosted uppers with hero is extremely low

earnest junco
#

Since those sp you invested into int are missing in str dex

visual gyro
#

youve got -spell damage% and no air damage %

earnest junco
visual gyro
#

high strength and dex yes but you cant just always use boosts as an excuse

earnest junco
#

Dodge always is maxed (after the first few seconds it needs to charge it up)

#

I get that you maybe want to look at the dmg without courage

#

But without dodge? That's not how the game works currently

any dodgemaxxers, endurancemaxxers or concentrationmaxxers in chat

master hive items by health:
1: tfa/etf (5400)
3: ewf (5000)
4: wfa (4600)
5: etw/efa (4200)
7: twf (3800)
8: ewa (3400)
9: eta/twa (3000)
10: contrast (900)
11: prowess/intensity (425)

#

why is the archetype known for tankiness 4th in the hp lineup and and the archetype defined as hyperglassy 5th/6th????

wicked juniper
#

4600 is still a very sizable amount of hp and as a tank archetype it's not as bulk/hp focused as the ones above it

#

unlike other glassy archetypes etw absolutely needs the good hp in order to even be viable

earnest junco
#

You wont die with a good WFA build (well.. If good WFA builds still existed...)

opal sable
#

also A is typically low hp which puts the list in context

#

in some ways heph is more of an outlier than eden

earnest junco
#

Well it is a FA item

#

FA items tend to have high hp

#

(compare: Many EFA items, frontliner, ...)

opal sable
#

yes F carries

any chatters

#

yeah

#

come up with an interestng topic within the next 5 minutes or i'll beat you up with this rock i found

languid ore
#

Agility

rocky parcel
#

literally any single of the new changes probably yeah but uh

#

let's start with one of the easier ones

#

agility change

languid ore
#

Does it mean poison always procs in pvp now saltroll

rocky parcel
#

"Agility will not fully nullify damage when triggered anymore. Instead, it will deal 10% of the damage to you and deal no knockback. Its scaling is slightly higher than defence, but they are both effectively equal."

#

yes

languid ore
#

Damn

wicked juniper
#

rage gma users are crying

latent ermine
#

yea

rocky parcel
#

the list of unique playstyles that were killed due to the update that is adding unique playstyles:

  • oblivion gimmick
  • extreme rage
#

please add to this list

vagrant junco
#

wait you cant dodge -mr with new vanish

#

like the vanish u get from shadestepper

west leaf
#

agility nerf hits way harder than the defense nerf realistically

#

defenseless air archetypes have piss poor ehp pre agi and taking any hit at all, even 10%, really sucks

#

especially considering the fact that current endgame mobs are likely to receive blanket buffs and the new raid is also further in progression than current raids

#

air looks like it's going to become even worse than it is now

#

like agility will always be a useful thing to have in builds that use agility items (twfa & rainbow) but having air as your sole defensive sp seems like it'll be unusable in 2.0

#

we understand why the defense and agility nerfs happened and it could be kind of cool if mobs were actually rebalanced appropriately but i have 0 faith in gms to do that

opal sable
#

I agree with u pinna

#

If that helps to hear

rocky parcel
#

i still am of the opinion that agility's problems moreso stem from fire items being too powerful rather than air being too weak

#

but there being like a singular properly defensive WA armor piece is kinda bogus

west leaf
#

you can compare it to any other element (not solely fire) and it's night and day the differences

#

there's definitely a couple good air items sure and fire might be better than it should be

#

but considering air's effect is just

#

overall the least reliable of all the elements

#

it really feels like it needs that extra strength

#

even if fire is supposedly stronger than it should be

#

it feels pretty alright in game unless you're just abusing hypertank

#

and a lot of endgame content seems to be designed with such high values in mind

rocky parcel
#

that's also a raid issue

#

raid balance :woozy:

west leaf
#

please buff air please god

languid ore
#

+1 on god 🙏

earnest junco
#

Likely too glassy for the new raid

#

At least for average players

#

Since you said "that didnt get nerfed" I'm assuming you mean builds with ET without def or agi (else they'd also be nerfed)

earnest fog
#

carrut is right you just cannot see it ingo
maybe try becoming a better class builder

#

yea what

valid crystal
rocky parcel
#

yes that singular properly defensive WA armor piece is ensa's ideals

earnest junco
#

Also isnt there also a defensive WA helmet?

#

Azure halo? Or am I mixing up names now?

#

I'll check

#

Yes, remembered correctly

#

And technically you could also say booster plate is defensive because of its jump height

rocky parcel
#

azure halo is to cancer what a lightbulb is to the sun

#

not that it's a bad item honestly but it's not really specifically made to be a highly defensive air item, it's moreso water-focused with an existing air req

dusky marsh
#

cancer doesnt have huge spr tho

opal sable
#

insane analogy holy shit

#

incredible

with spellbound do you think we get rainbow neutral low level and high level mythic boots

Adding quest characters as buyable NPCs for housing could actually be a nice way to spice your island up

If you right click them they say a one line messages

Pass this on to salted if you want

earnest fog

WHY did you react to my message with the clown emoji

earnest junco
#

Powder special nerfs are confirmed

#

Plague only beats anthracite ballista because of powder specials

#

If powder specials are gone anthracite is the best nonmythic tank tierstack bow again

#

Well it's not a buff but the competition is getting nerfed

resurgence 🤮

earnest junco
# elder swan are they?

Yes, Salted said it in his stream (at the beginning iirc, so like in the first 30 or 60 min)

#

But we dont know by how much they'll be nerfed

opal sable
#

mm

earnest junco
#

not 100% sure when they said it but here pretty much is proof that he said it

#

(we were sending everything mentioned in the stream in that chat)

shut up

ivory schooner
#

buff dawnbreak tiers so that -10 is max again

opal sable
#

nah

ivory schooner
#

come on dawnbreak cstack is kinda cool

rocky parcel
#

nah

ivory schooner

::((

dusky marsh
#

that is enough

#

@tidal cloud <3

ivory schooner
#

true but -10 dawnbreak was gamer

tidal cloud
#

what

dusky marsh
#

tf u mean what

drifting pike
#

oh was this about the video he made

tidal cloud
exotic perch
#

when was dawnbreak -10 ?

#

was that a recent change, or was that an old change from like 1.19

dusky marsh
#

changed at some point in 1.20 if im not mistaken

hoary chasm
#

it was on 1.20 release i fink

#

same time they got rid of its -hpr and made it an actually good boot

dusky marsh
simple talon
#

I thought the speed tier change happened after the hpr change

#

Because I definitely remember there being a time during the "oh wait dawnbreak is actually good now" period of #🗿class_builds that a lot of dawnbreak cancelstack builds popped up

rocky parcel
#

there was an initial tier nerf like 2 weeks after it was first found

#

then there was a change that removed negative hpr off of it and nerfed tiers further quite a bit later

void mirage
#

does natural mr scale with ur mana cap?

#

(like, if u have 181 mana from int stat is it still just 5mr a second or does it regen faster)

hoary chasm
#

int in 2.0 scales the natural mr and the total mr

#

brrrt

#

i didnt really check how much by

west leaf
#

clam

raven cedar
#

it’s 5% of your total mana per second

exotic perch
#

(Have not played hero beta, I did not know that it generates 5% of your total mana)

raven cedar
#

it's still pretty bad

exotic perch
#

Still bad but I’m a lot more glad

#

Glad that it’s not just “higher int means increase in mana pool”

we are all just waiting for the new item changelog so we can discuss our favorite items being nerfed to smithereens again

opal sable
#

😁

opal sable
#

ok I'll go delete rte

ivory schooner
#

you always think that until you see the nerfs 😔

earnest junco
#

My fav items:
Hero, tcrack, (no longer guard bc the major ID is dead), heph, gaia, galleon

#

Fav builds / playstyles:
Spell / poison hybrid gaia
TFA tcrack with 3x unique + heph
(guardian taunt rally carry build. RIP)
Hero builds (I just like staying below 50% hp)

#

I also love spell assassin but dont really care about the build type there

#

And in 2.0 I like helicopter archer

#

Taking all perks that give arrow storm more arrows, not taking the perk that removes recoil after 8s of not getting hit, 1 mana storm

#
  • grappling hook
#

Cycling 3x storm down -> 1x hook up (to the ceiling)

Not great dps but very fun

it’s called hexed pendant

#

broken balance iirc tends to be net negative

hoary chasm
#

I mean if used correctly you could say kbones isnt negative either

valid crystal
#

kbones sees enough use in wars that i’d call it okay

#

broken balance is unfortunately not good enough to justify using it

exotic perch
exotic perch
#

Doesn’t make much sense though cuz it doesn’t have powder special slots

hoary chasm
void mirage
#

Do you guys think time rift will be practical for an arcanist mage?

#

bc like

#

the subclass can already spam recast spells prolly faster than trift

#

and the spells from stuff like chaos explosion prolly dont proc sorcery

#

so perhaps the chestplate slot could be used for smth else for extra dmg / sustain?

#

(and it makes the seance modifier go from - to + bc ls cancel)
