Blaster

[mossy fern]

Is it basically a 10s iframe ?

The description seems similar to bishop shell

[sharp quartz]

I think of it as my “oh shoot” button like an extra power elixir. I don’t use it often for an iframe since we have other iframe skills. Most of the time I can’t see when my blast shield is up to cast vitality bc my transparency settings lols.

[mossy fern]

Oh as in blast shield already been used

[sharp quartz]

Yeah you can only cast vitality if you have blast shield around you.

[mossy fern]

What can vitality shield block / cannot block?

Can u dps thru iframe with it?

[sharp quartz]

Yeah you can, and it protects only from normal attacks

I don’t implement it a lot in my rotation but it’s nice to have when ur in a tight situation and need to fully heal

[visual patio]

Vitality shield is a clutch button if you’re close to death. Blaster is a fun class to play. Unlimited up jumps, great dash, on demand I frames that double as one of your best damaging skills. They made Gatling much better. I used to just hold it for an iframe but now I like to use it when overdrive is off for that 20 seconds cos MP/DB/BB combo is money when it’s up

[mossy fern]

Preset mp-mp-mp-hs , then bunker every time it’s full gauge?

Should I use v3 then v2, then over drive and mp/bunker combo?

V1 and v4 will be buff w pet

Assuming I want maximum dmg and not worry about iframe (and my sanity for not doing manual hs)

Do we use magnum punch or it’s a waste of space?

V3, do we do more dmg by holding the skill to use 6 ammo or is that purely for iframe purposes

[visual patio]

Pretty much. I don’t use preset for MP it’s just slower but totally understandable if you want to

I throw overdrive on my pet aswell

Helps minimize skill management. I open with v3 and use v2 once overdrive is offline

Actually depends on boss but I always open with bunker buster to trigger ds4

V3 you hold down button and press it to trigger in place and they do the same so u just holding is for iframe purposes

[mossy fern]

For sure. It’s like my Evan. I used to preset wind breath and now that I’m comfortable I don’t anymore to maximize their line count.

[mossy fern]

Hmm aren’t we losing 40s of v2 by holding it? U think maximizing mp-bunker during overdrive is more important?

[mossy fern]

Any special mechanic w v3 or special situation where u hold it outside of iframe purposes?

[visual patio]

It might be better to let it rip but each boss is different. Damien I open with v2 while blade plants and drop v3 once we move to the corner. Lotus I save it for after overdrive for lasers. I guess ark and lucid you can drop it right away but I just save it for that lul between overdrive

[mossy fern]

This makes sense since the sword push u around the the iframe from v2 is helpful for that

I personally also pop my iframe at the beginning of p1 so I can stand still n dps without getting push around and to maximize my ds4

But it seems your point is you prefer to use it to help w the dps drop during overdrive cooldown

Meanwhile I may say that popping it at the beginning during ds4 is crucial. Coz overdrive is 40s. So in a perfect scenario, I’ll only have 5s of ds4 to proc ít

Idk if magnum punch n bunker makes up more overall dmg than v2 thơ

[dense monolith]

Just play according to the situation/preference, our advantage is the staying power as we can deal with many mechanics

[mossy fern]

How’s is magnum punch? Do u use it

[dense monolith]

u mean hyper magnum punch?

[mossy fern]

Yes

[dense monolith]

just there in page 2 as a emergency oh fk button

can cross lasers with it, the animation is abit short to my liking for dodging ark cracks/1hko attacks

[mossy fern]

So basically a short dash iframe that most of the time we cover w the short iframe from bunker

[dense monolith]

Yeah bunker is most consistent iframe, if you know mechanics just hold bunker for a couple seconds to iframe boss move esp when overdrive buff is down. You're not losing a hell lot of dps meanwhile other classes got to like dodge/upjump

[autumn egret]

i think im doing something wrong in lotus

i start the fight with mp/db + hs to trigger ds4, then i gatling punch and bullet blast and go back to bunker + weaving to mp/db

im not sure isit because im lvl too low that i get a lot of dmg penalty from lotus, doing 12m-14.2m+

for a 5min fight with a few deaths, im doing about 121.51b, 3.7% contri 24.71b dpm

mp db bunker revolving nodes all 60

v1 10, v2 8, v3 10, v4 10

[autumn egret]

im not sure if legion adv is huge but my friend with a higher legion but 16m mdc ilm hitting 12m only hitting 2x of my dmg. My this acct only have 1.4k legion hahaha....

[autumn egret]

@dense monolith any ideas ?

[dense monolith]

Not sure, Lotus is a very RNG boss and many things happen inside that affects your dps and take the time to practice blaster mechs i.e. you shouldnt have to climb/use portals in P1, blaster can perfectly stay right below laser the whole time

[autumn egret]

Its only during the 3rd spd up i climb the ladder like once or twice

[mossy fern]

What are our iframe options again?

Bunker explosion 1s , gatling punch (is it 3 or 4s?) , bullet blast (4-5s if hold right?) vitality shield 10s

So really only bunker n vitality shield. V2 and v3 deal too much dmg to hold as an emergency button

Can we get away with just one trio? (I’d assume mp, db, and bunker?)

I guess the only worthwhile we leave out is revolving cannon. Hammer smash doesn’t seem to make up that many lines (if we manual) and also hard to cap

[sharp quartz]

impenetrable skin is another, and vitality shield wont be protected against all attacks, only normal attacks. So it’s more of a heal button to me than a reliable iframe

[sharp quartz]

Yes that’s the trio I’ve been using since v1 takes over revolving canon when it’s up. but will add the other trio when I have more slots

[mossy fern]

Do u remember namely what u use it for? Can it go thru dr?

[mossy fern]

Oh so v1 makes revolving cannon less important

It’ll be a mule for me so having 1 set of trio is important since I won’t be leveling it up much

And those slots are precious

[sharp quartz]

Like I use it when Pierre is spinning and following me and I want to heal and take less damage haha. I think for non normal attacks it takes less dmg. But for one hit ko moves it’s not gonna protect. I’m not sure about it working for dr. I usually use v2,v3, bunker if I want to hit thru dr. Or I just bind before dr

[sharp quartz]

Yeah once v1 is on revolving canon gets replaced

[mossy fern]

I wish the game would specify which attack is normal

Well it’s treated like shell so for sure it can block ark crack

[sharp quartz]

I assume normal attacks are like getting hit by mobs or going near the boss. But lasers, cracks, swords probably not

Cracks you can use bunker

I have a vid on solo ark if u want to see it

[visual patio]

Impenetrable skin go thru dr and everything else u wanna get thru

Between BB w overdrive, v2, v3 and impenetrable skin you can stay grounded all of p1 lotus

[dense monolith]

whatever was said + hyper magnum punch

[mossy fern]

So whatever that we can use bishop shell for, we should be able to use it. So it should cover ark crack, no?

[dense monolith]

you can pass lotus p1 laser wif hyper magnum punch

[mossy fern]

So realistically just impenetrable skin to allow us to dps during br. The other skill id probably use off cooldown for more dmg

[dense monolith]

it depends on what more damage means for you, V1 + V4 + overdrive buffs up at the start is the highest dps window for your DS4 activation period

you can pre-charge V3 as well but V2 isnt comparable to what the rest does

[mossy fern]

Hmm interesting since we usually wanna squeeze all v skill in during ds4. I’d imagine we’d wanna do v3 and v2 also

[dense monolith]

i like V2 for the much longer invul duration, helps on dps upkeep for Damien Firestorm or Ark dmg reflect

[mossy fern]

What about like lotus where v2 isn’t needed rly for p2 and p3? Squeeze in during ds4 or?

[dense monolith]

theres no absolute correct way on this, the class is very skill expressive, play it to your own style

[mossy fern]

Yea def lots of options

[dense monolith]

to me skill usage depends on your team. is your team whale enough to smash dps through X boss, or is the team new and every DC matters to clear X boss

[robust root]

Typically in higher end bosses, the burst rotation is as follows
use v1 and v4 >v3 >,v2

V4 triggers when u cast v2 , so it’s ok

It’s a huge burst , I would consider blaster as a burst class

U gotta time all your skills with ds4 and shade split to get the maximum efficiency

[robust root]

Tbh on a contrary, v2 deals a hell load of damage

This is my dps chart in will , v2 has the 3rd number of line count

Nexon gotta buff our v3, the lines are pathetic as compared to our other skills

[dense monolith]

yeah i just like to save it for situations like tanking Damien Firestorm. Sometimes when Pala/Ph didnt catch the bot commands

Hope you get your weapon stones 🥹 probably a couple months before i get to run Lucid

[dense monolith]

other classes like evan and pala unloads 1k+ lines on their V3 while we get ~400 lines

[little breach]

What's the max charge for v1 and v4 at max lvl?

Is the charge a nerf for v1 compared before when it was duration based

[robust root]

Tks man . That 4% IED is huge

[mossy fern]

@dense monolith would u mind sharing skil description of v1-v4?

[dense monolith]

my v2 and v3 arent maxed yet tho

[mossy fern]

I’m looking to see how it increases w level.

[dense monolith]

gimme like 10mins, but i feel like its been shared here before

[mossy fern]

Kinda like how some burst skill cd go from 3mjn to 2 min, making maxing them very important. Meanwhile maplegoddess is 2min cooldown regardless and the buff duration is 25s going to 40s

So not maxing it right away won’t hurt too much n interrupt w your cooldown rotation

[mossy fern]

I wish they gave back media search function in the sub forum.

I can’t find it without scrolling up 20 mins

[dense monolith]

@mossy fern only v1 v4 maxed

[mossy fern]

Ty!

So v2 doesn’t need high level to have similar cd n duration. It seems mostly just more ied

V1 need high level for max activation count but even at low level the cooldown will sync up w everything

V3 needs lv30 to be 60s burst

And v4 is similar to v1

Are we still toggling cannon on and off for certain situation?

[dense monolith]

? Only v4 shud be on pet autobuff before bossing

[mossy fern]

I meant the revolving cannon

I’m thinking of just auto buff both v1 and v4 for my fingers’ sake

Btw I have decided. Gonna burn my blaster n join this cult !

Took me a few days to decide

[autumn egret]

U gonna be sad

Other warrior dps easier to dish out

[mossy fern]

I’m not looking for a new main. Just a fun bossing alt 😄

I don’t like pally, hero, dk. They’re too one button for me.

[dense monolith]

It's ok. We are not Kanna-alt levels of bad

[mossy fern]

Lol agreed

But blaster line count is also the lowest amongst warrior right

[robust root]

Buff blaster ! I think we can petition for a resistance class rebalance )

[mossy fern]

Yea I think all resistance need some love

[mossy fern]

Do u have video of you doing bossing?

[dense monolith]

+2 lines to MP/DB/RC, 100+100 lines on V3 would be nice to start

[robust root]

I’ll try to record some gameplay when I have the chance

[marble token]

Pls don't. I don't want them breaking blaster and ignoring it for another 2 years. Brb back to 12k lines

[robust root]

Nth too crazy , just add a few lines here and there will be good bro

[autumn egret]

need more lines

[autumn egret]

[autumn egret]

I tried taking my blaster 206 to ndam multi. Cleared at 9:58 thanks to teamwork and good carry in 3 tries for a brand new team 3 experienced, 7 newbies.

I only did 2.1% - 98b dmg at lv206

Not sure if theres heavy penalty due to level difference, but accuracy due to level gap is inevitable can only use 30% acc buff and ty and pray haha

[mystic coyote]

hi gang, anyone has any thoughts on Hayato v Blaster esp post 200?

deciding which to focus on as an alt, but my Hayato with a leg weap is doing almost thrice the damage as my Blaster who has a mythic emblem lol

Shinsoku and Falcon's Honor so strong

but i rly want to focus on Blaster bc Hayatos are everywhere...just want to make sure the gap doesnt widen or stay the same even post 200 lol

[autumn egret]

Well hayato is a dps, blaster feels like a dpm

[autumn egret]

My friend was using leg + mythic emblem mixed eq with 8k legion and a necro wpn at lv200 paladin

He out dmg me by a ton in lotus when i only have 1.6k legion, 2pcs n40 with ied 6 % and n50 gigas

I just dont get why my blaster's dmg so low 😦

Every single boss i went so weak dmg

I'm reaching the first milestone of oh isit time to reconsider for another class lol

If anyone could share any info would be good since i dont think skill rotation is the problem

My pala with 4.5k legion wearing pen set deals 10x dmg gap from my blaster

[sharp quartz]

blaster goes brrrrrr we hit pretty hard

[mossy fern]

A lot of classes has a big v3 burst

Like pally, Evan, merc, etc that’s 2 min cool down

So those classes have really high peak

Iirc blaster also amongst the lowest line count in the warrior category

But I personally am enjoying the infinite air jump, very responsive n fast mobility (not that it helps u do anymore dps) , and the many mini iframe

[mystic coyote]

@autumn egret if it’s not too much could you send me the 5th job skills of blaster & hayato? wanna compare before i make a final decision…saw you in both class forums haha

[autumn egret]

At work now cant

[sharp quartz]

Idk anything about hayato post 200 but I do know that blaster takes off post 200 especially with v1/rocket punch

[autumn egret]

i play both and i have a more geared blaster than hayato sadly in 1-2mins dps rotation in sage with lv235 and 20% def, they are only 1b diff

so this makes me rethink about blaster by a huge margin

everyone just tellling me my blaster aint doing well despite having n50 wpn and 3 n40 set with 6 ied lmao

if put on hayato would definite be huge diff

however im more interested in spamming iframes with bunker and weaving around

im still hanging on because of this

[mossy fern]

Hayato may be hidden op.

Last person submitted to world record with battle analysis shows 15235 line for hayato vs 13263 line for blaster

[sharp quartz]

I am surprised, maybe I am bias but if I’m on an even playing field in a boss with other classes (max nodes, gear, & mdc). Blaster could out dps a lot of classes.

[autumn egret]

right now i will say i have to wait til 210-220

to see how much

penalty i get removed

[sharp quartz]

I can match dmg or hit a little more than other classes with slightly higher mdc. Most blaster mains in here would tell you the same I’m sure xD.

thug it out and continue playing this dog class 🙂

[autumn egret]

yeah i have to thug it out

been seeing some dmg increment in ark lately

lvl up must have helped xD

[mystic coyote]

ty for the responses guys

seems like ill hold off on investing more resources in my Hayato and Blaster

and get both to 200 then see

i do like how Blaster is very niche / rare whereas Hayato's are everywhere haha

[sharp quartz]

I was the laughing stock pre 200 in my group for choosing blaster. Its gotten real quiet since post 200 🙂

[autumn egret]

pre 200 trash

[sharp quartz]

Indeed

[autumn egret]

the shotgun punch

is literally garbage

until nodes

[sharp quartz]

You’re a Will conqueror I’m sure you will unlock blaster’s true potential soon

[autumn egret]

hahahah

im just a support phantom...

leap leap leap

LOLOL

thats how will is clearede

[sharp quartz]

Do you have max boost nodes and maxed v1 on ur blaster? @autumn egret

[mystic coyote]

yea im just surprised bc i actl tested with almost all the characters at level 100 with event gear in the training grounds

and blaster's damage was like 30M, most classes were around 10M with a some being between 15-20

[sharp quartz]

blaster is a sleeper class for sure haha

[mystic coyote]

results just in case anyone was interessted

i was extremely shocked by blaster hahahha

i ran these tests for basically all the characters except for a few so if anyone is interested to see the results lmk, but top scorer was Blaster by a mile followed by Aran / Shadower / Marksman / Xenon i believe

Pathfinder did like 4M lol

[sharp quartz]

Pathfinder op

[sharp quartz]

Did you test blaster with maxed combo training before hitting start?

[mystic coyote]

cant rmb ngl this was awhile ago, but idts

heres more data

i also tested with like which preset skills was best and Magnum Punch + Hammer Smash was highest damage

granted this is all at level 100 w event eq only and def not optimized since i didnt know the classes rly well hahaha

i wouldve went with Aran if i hadnt tried Blaster lol

[mossy fern]

I did a similar test for all my lv150 char

It’s not indicative of a class potential

But what that teaches me is classes w high dmg are classes that’ll cap easily

But post 200, how the v skill work n how many lines u got will change a class drastically , prime example is marksman

One of my tankier n deal insane dmg is marksman, but we all know post200 she’s bad

My blaster is currently lv186 w burning n using magnum punch. Shotgun punch just too weak at 3 lines. But I’m sure post lv225 with more room for nodes and shotgun pinch boosted it’ll be our main training skill

[mystic coyote]

yep agree w everything u said

[mystic coyote]

esp bc at end game u shld be critting all the time which removes a big plus of Snipe right

[mossy fern]

Exactly

[autumn egret]

no i put all at lv10 to be equal comparison with all my other accounts/characters

boost nodes already all 60

[dense monolith]

best to show video for others to see

[autumn egret]

i think the excel with the 2mins static lines speaks for itself already

most classes are kinda gg before 200, those bad at post 200 needs a rework on for sure since it shouldnt be bad

but personally in boss fights after trying out blaster for some weeks, i can say that other classes lost more linecounts than me when evading boss atks/mechanics

for ark, that tiny frame atk movement you can start to bunker and continue to atk as per normal while everyone else gotta iframe/dodge or reposition themselves to not get hit incase some skills get cancelled

for lotus bunker around in p1/2/3 easily dodging the punch if your aggro is being dumb jumping left n right not wanted to take the hit

for dam, i just spam non-stop to maximize dmg before i get targeted by the dang orb and doing shrine

[dense monolith]

yes we arent like S tier in static but when it comes to actual runs with the right usage your uptime deals more, hence I suggest a small linecount buff to our base skills would be good enough

given the right situation (overdrive buff up) and wrong settings (ark orbs went in), you are literally a god against the multiple screen cracks

[torpid cloak]

@dense monolith On your hyper passives do you lvl up "Improved Bunker Explosion" or "Shockwave"?

[dense monolith]

not on phone atm but whatever that is lower skill dmg % of the two

[torpid cloak]

Thanks 🙏

[autumn egret]

hmm dmg improvement with 2 more necro gear

finally no longer in the 100+ range

this is for lotus

[dense monolith]

Nice

[dense monolith]

Just putting KMSM updates here for us to follow, since our class discussion is kinda slow

KMSM new boss - Archon
Normal/Hard modes - Hard mode drops a emblem gear (new equipment slot)

Additional/bonus potential lines now available - opened with add. potential scrolls and tier up with add. pot cubes

[robust root]

Heh tks for keeping this chat alive. I have actually recorded some will bossing footage. Will share once I have the time

[peak ocean]

can't wait

[mossy fern]

Leveling up Gatling punch does nothing but some ied and higher skill %?

[autumn egret]

im excited for coming ndam where im lv210 probably should have the lvl gap penalty lifted

[mossy fern]

Is our trio mp/db/bunker then hs/cannon/shotgun punch?

[dense monolith]

mp/db/bunker/cannon is blaster main 4
hammer provides v little % (but still contributes) so slight lower priority
shotgun is up to personal preference IMO, i went with cyclone since i use cyclone for AB mobs

[mossy fern]

You recommend a 4 boost nodes setup then?

[dense monolith]

like ill say best is to do 2 of the 4, then hammer on one of them but lesser priority

[mossy fern]

I was basing it off this. Both cannon and hs is roughly 3-4% so they’re equally low on dmg contribution

[dense monolith]

hammer would be even lower on mobile bosses, all in all the 5 are the most impt, the shotgun punch is your interpretation

[mossy fern]

Yea it’s like a debate between shotgun punch vs cyclone

I don’t remember cyclone dmg on top of my head. But shotgun punch 3 line seems like it needs the extra help to 1 shot

While I remember cyclone does a fine job killing mob

[dense monolith]

Thing is you can still use MP/DB for AB. also if you go with shotgun most likely you invest 1 pt into shotgun hyper as well

in terms of normal non-af or sf mobs clearing, V4 off buff does the best job

[mossy fern]

Shotgun seems like the best choice for super late game blaster where they don’t need hyper point in anything but the ones that gives more line

[crimson portal]

Can someone help me with a blaster pre-150 training wheel

[marble token]

Magnum punch and bunker buster. That's it

If you can survive then put in the dash atks like hyper magnum punch muzzle flash then hurricane aoe if you can 1-2 shot

[autumn egret]

Went damien on monday, forgot to post this to ask a little

oh man my v skills not even hitting 14-16m

kind of low for lv15 v1

[robust root]

The first pilegod is made !

[visual patio]

Congrats bro!

[dense monolith]

congrats, now you dont have to spam b>weapon stone in blue chat anymore

[autumn egret]

hmm... i've upgraded my equips but the dmg doesnt seems like increasing significantly

still feels like a noob always rank low in ark :<

[sharp quartz]

did you ever max out ur v1?

[autumn egret]

not yet

i need mesos to up my abso to lv40 first haha

node price dropping

so can wait abit before buying

[sharp quartz]

And ur boost nodes are maxed I assume?

[robust root]

Levels matter a lot . Gotta get to at least 22x

[autumn egret]

Alright will keep abing

[autumn egret]

Yup

[mossy fern]

Godly gear for a lv213 dayum

U probably feel weak coz lack of level, mlabel 3+3, legion, good flame, commander set accessories etc

[autumn egret]

ya not yet going for 3+3 mlabel due to going for mpets first.

all my gear have 1 x 2.4% def ignore minimum

commander set accessories need time to do up

legion slowly building

and i only managed to pass those absolab due to good luck blessings from wedding dinner that i attended

groom and bride gave me op luck buffs

[mossy fern]

Nice nice. I’m jealous!

[autumn egret]

1 tap abso

op

[mossy fern]

Yea my other acct with low legion n stuff feel a lot weaker. And like u said, a lot of time-gated stuff that’ll take time

[autumn egret]

i know right too much time gate

but i'll get mlabel next soon

[autumn egret]

After V1 and V4 , V2 or V3 which to max next?

[sharp quartz]

I did v3

[mystic coyote]

is there a 5th job guide for blaster

just got it to 200

what's the best way to maximize damage from our V1 / V4

[autumn egret]

idk i just use both tgt

[autumn egret]

hi can check this is with how much ignore def rate and total mdc?

@robust root sry have to tag u this once for that qn haha

[robust root]

Oh man , that was a long time ago . I can’t really rmb

Shld be high 60s for mdc and abv 30 for ied

[dense monolith]

Ok just for blaster mains information since KMSM had announced 6th job, and KMS announced the last of mastery cores now.

In 6th job you get:

1. Hexa skills - Everyone gets their Origin skill, 3 unknown slots atm
2. Common skills - Everyone gets a AoE skill/summon depending on chosen mode for farming, 3 unknown slots
3. 5th job mastery - Like we got boost nodes to increase FD for 1st-4th job skills, we get all 4 slots for these.
4. Mastery cores - These upgrade your boost nodes skills to a better version. May include other features.
5. Hexa stat - Flat stats boost with RNG to which it upgrades

For mastery cores, we are getting:

1. Magnum Punch VI / Double Fang VI
2. Release Pile Bunker VI / Burst Pile Bunker (new)
3. Revolving Cannon Mastery VI / Hammer Smash VI
4. Shotgun Punch VI / Revolving Cannon VI / Ballistic Hurricane VI

3rd and 4th mastery cores grouping not finalized but this gives an idea to everyone on how our boost nodes are gonna be like

[crimson portal]

howd you get the translation to do that 😮 i tried right clicking translate to english, but it doesnt change the class skill changes for me

[dense monolith]

im using image translation like google image translate or yandex

can anyone recommend AB skill wheel?

strugglign to survive in AF30 despite having 1.5x AF and mythic jaihin emblem

[dense monolith]

Total 5k lines on our origin skill

[sharp quartz]

magnum punch & bunker. Maybe try adding in the knock back skill rocket rush to help you survive.

[autumn egret]

So excited but damn not enough lvl to 250 til next year lol

[crimson portal]

probably going to take me 2 years for 250 😦 AF map exp buff + another exp cut when 🙂

[autumn egret]

ur current lvl ?

i think just daily HT mayb 1yr should be enuff

[crimson portal]

230

[autumn egret]

1yr should be enough

the exp will cut again eventually

just to bump more ppl to 250

[crimson portal]

true. hopefully HT only is enough. maybe even evening HT only for me. really trying to push my legion rn. 900 for till 8900, but may push for more just in case another legion change happens

[dense monolith]

so far my experience is abt 1.5% per weekday, 5% per ovn weekend. It'll be tough, gonna hope we get more events with mag growth pot rewards

worst case scenario maybe like may/june-ish ill look for a 19/7 fp

origin skill line count wise we are kinda above avg, expect all class origin skills to be ard 4-5.x k line counts. Only huge outlier is Cannoneer whose base is 2.4k lines = 7.2k lines with Buckshot buff.

[sudden pendant]

anyone have the passive hyper skills ? does anyone use the 1 second iframe with bunker buster ?

[marble token]

The iframe helps a lot during bossing. I use the bunker buster iframe to dash through Lotus lasers

[visual patio]

It’s our best hyper imo atleast my favourite

Basically a spot dodge everytime u bunker

[autumn egret]

Not bad after the patch, 31.x mdc I can hit 25.48m in hdam with dmg penalty

Good improvement on SC as well finally got to 5 digits, 11k now without boss rush and camp fire

Now I just need to max v2 to v4

Then my dmg should be quite solid

[visual patio]

Yeah wanna max v1 and v4 asap that’s our bread and butter more levels is more lines

Free lines cos you pretty much can’t wiff it and all you gotta do is attack so pretty sweet

[autumn egret]

just a question do you guys charge v3 before letting it go

or just let it rip immediate?

[dense monolith]

only charge for opening burst or iframe, if not just down arrow + v3 to let it go instantly on the spot

the additional lines per bullet isnt significant sadly

[sudden pendant]

is this class good for tanking and holding aggro in bosses ?

[silk rivet]

For 30s yes

[digital plinth]

Hi can anyone share the AB wheel for blaster?

[vernal gust]

Hyper passive order for this class?

[delicate mountain]

Do you have ab skill wheel for non HP pot eating blaster?

[delicate mountain]

Does blaster need mythic weapon to deal decent dmg for mobbing and bossing pre lv 200?

[autumn egret]

never good before full a50 abso

lmao

[delicate mountain]

So I just leave it as it is until lv 200 using other method as my erel farming slave (burning event forced me to play that server with one slot left)

[autumn egret]

yup

[restive trellis]

Hey guys, can anyone tell me what v matrix trios I should look for?

[marble token]

Magnum punch, double blast, bunker buster. Revolving cannon and hammer smash is optional

[delicate mountain]

Hammer smash is must have for bossing in case of bossing counter attack

They should buff magnum punch

[dense monolith]

Just wanted to add on if we are following Maple PC hexa skills release progression, we have 7 skills boosted by hexa matrix.

1st: Magnum Punch/Double Blast
2nd: Bunker Buster
3rd + 4th: Revolving cannon, hammer smash, shotgun punch, ballistic hurricane

Based on 1st and 2nd hexa skills, that is probably our "perfect" trio to aim for currently in any case you are undecided on the 3rd+4th trio mix atm.

Also class balancing incoming, hopefully we get something good!

[marble token]

Nice, I have hammer smash, shotgun punch and revolving cannon as my optional trio

[delicate mountain]

Does nodes changes blaster a lot or the dmg is still meh

[marble token]

Level 60 nodes like triples your dmg

Or are you asking if Blasters in general are strong? Because no, they're a meh warrior class

[dense monolith]

No idea what "Reduced frequency during skill casting by 50%." for Gatling Punch means

[sharp quartz]

Maybe shorter time to finish casting by 50%? So less iframe time?

[visual patio]

I love Gatling don’t nerf it 😭

[visual patio]

Idk man I don’t think that it will be a shorter time or they would say reduced cast time

[dense monolith]

but thats on max atk count, hence idk wad it even means lol

[visual patio]

Yeah we gonna have to wait and see

I clipped myself doing a battling in fog

Gonna compare after patch

Was about 5 seconds and 630 lines before

[marble token]

Probably not gonna have time to do fog before patch. Just gonna rely on Rey for his anal

[delicate mountain]

Rip shotgun punch aft revolving cannon got nerfed even more

Double blast too

[mossy fern]

Big buff!!!

[mossy fern]

Frequency is how often it repeats the line counf

It essentially means tbe skill go off more or less often over the duration.

If someone has v2 line count recorded , compare it to after the patch.

I think they meant the skill will be used more frequently over the duration, which is extra line. But it may also mean the skill is use less frequenrly over the duration, which is less line. Theyre notorious for mistranslation so it’ll be good to test.

[dense monolith]

Didnt reduce linecount

[robust root]

It’s about 3 secs for 800 ish lines now

What was our bullet blast line count previously

I rmb it’s like 333 or sth like that

[mossy fern]

Did it increase

[dense monolith]

798 as you can see, im trusting on your 630 numbers lol

[mossy fern]

These number never line up 100% but it’s pretty close

Can u dig up a previous battle analysis

[mossy fern]

Have u tested it senpai?

[dense monolith]

from mrmok previous test #1059997593507221555 message

it looks to be about low 600s lines pre-patch

[mossy fern]

For sure it’s a buff then

[dense monolith]

635 lines on bullet blast, dont think much changed for V3 anyways from the numbers in the patch notes

[robust root]

The instant release is about 486

I think around 80 lines

But are we the only class that have gotten more lines ?

[visual patio]

Tbh I never held v2 down before 😂 did not know it did more lines

[mossy fern]

Wait what? Holding v2 does more line? Gatling punch?

[dense monolith]

u mean V3

[visual patio]

Nvm I’m high

[mossy fern]

I did a test on v3 before. Holding does do more line for v3 itself, but u lose line from not spamming magnum combo.

It’s still best to hold v3 only dor the extra iframe if needed

[dense monolith]

weird i got ~350 lines on instant release v3 (down + skill), which lines up with the patch notes numbers

[robust root]

As in now u get 350 lines ?

[dense monolith]

Bullet Blast

[Charge & Immediate Attack] Hit Count 288 > 324

[Explosive] Adds an additional hit count per bullet. 27 > 28

Prior to that instant release BB would be like ~310 lines

[visual patio]

Pre

Post

[mossy fern]

Extra line is always nice

[robust root]

Yea

[dense monolith]

yeah numbers look fine, 170 lines on V2, 40 lines on V3

[robust root]

200 lines every 1 min

Pretty good

[visual patio]

Exactly

Yeah we take those

Only few other classes got extra lines

ILM and FP mage

But nothing big

[robust root]

And now Gatling last for 3 secs instead of 5 right ?

[mossy fern]

Gatling lasted 5 befofe?

[dense monolith]

remember Weapon Aura and Resistance Infantry lines buffed too

[mossy fern]

Always felt it was very fast

[visual patio]

And the extra FD we get should cover us

For % loss

[robust root]

I mean I trust Rey

[dense monolith]

Cannon Overdrive FD buff is kinda bonkers

altho it doesnt benefit me when im alrdy capped

[robust root]

Yea but that’s for most of the classes

[robust root]

Not too sure how easy is it to cap now

[visual patio]

Pre

Post

Yeah looks like it’s shortened

[dense monolith]

dont be like Hero, got screwed for no reason

[robust root]

Yea for sure

That’s another 2 more secs of mp/db spam

[visual patio]

I feel like they don’t want people capping so easy

So nerf% stats

[drowsy timber]

yeah

[drowsy timber]

nerfed so bad

[dense monolith]

Feels more like they wanted to bring up the low-end of players higher up, alot of passive skill stats were boosted

[robust root]

But feel that blasters got quite a big buff

[dense monolith]

Classes like shadower got like multiple stat buffs

[visual patio]

Whole extra BB

[robust root]

Gotta test the lines now

[dense monolith]

mp/db buff when

[visual patio]

What u guys getting for 2 min?

[robust root]

Our db got 10 percent dmg nerf and our mp got 10 percent dmg increase

Im not too sure what is nexon thinking

Lolol

[dense monolith]

yk when you needed words to fill up the essay quota

[robust root]

Hilarious

[robust root]

I’m gonna test later at night

[mossy fern]

Wth it is shortened

Most classes would like it but I like gatling punch iframe

However, this means more line from Gatling + more line from spamming more magnum. Overall dps increase

[robust root]

Big W

[visual patio]

Honestly after they fixed Gatling last rebalance it’s been one of my favourite skills

I was expecting more from v3 tho

Not gonna be greedy but like 20 extra lines?

Cmon now

[dense monolith]

+1 line per bullet charge is laughable

[robust root]

And the animation for bullet blast is clunky af

There is the weird wind up at the start

The pc version is much smoother

[dense monolith]

PC Bullet Blast dmg was so good

Mobile Bullet Blast very meh

like the additional line counts for bullets should be massively buffed to reward good timing usage

[robust root]

I’m just presetting bullet blast/gatling and use it once the cd is done

I wonder how the change in Gatling will affect our afterimage shock

Since Gatling uses up the charges for afterimage shock

But I think our burst will be much more condensed

[sharp quartz]

I mess with the blast her baby makin music gang

[visual patio]

Bro that’s what I’m saying 😂

[visual patio]

Dkm 😂 I was preparing for lift off 😏

[robust root]

hmm i tested

15k lines for 2mins

i think previously we are at 13.2k lines

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yUwSaHJmXBOvc-eI0UD7EMVyu4WUc2OwjkXPbMa4AWI/edit?pli=1&gid=2075334118#gid=2075334118

[dense monolith]

Is this gdocs still maintained? Feels like owner abandoned it lol

[robust root]

yea

gatling punch dmg line count is insane rn

[dense monolith]

We are entirely V skill top heavy lmao

[mossy fern]

Wow wow

[mossy fern]

Which is how everything should be

I’m baffled by 13.2-15k tho

[dense monolith]

yea which is why i asked abt the gdocs validity, its been a while it was updated at all

i was expected abt an overall ~600 line increase for a 2min run or so

[mossy fern]

Well, a tiny bit more line from adi

And weapon aura

But otherwise it’s purely class dependent

[robust root]

Yea , Gatling is crazy now , 800 lines in 3 secs

With a 1 min cd

[mossy fern]

I guess we’ll take it. A shorter iframe but burst faster, not including the extra hit of mp we can squeeze in. So happy for blaster

[dense monolith]

Celebrate every win we get, rip Hero 🫡

[robust root]

I kinda wished that v4 is lil bit stronger

[visual patio]

Why is Will skill stronger than v3 🥲

[visual patio]

What boss? You don’t like v1 and v4 on pets?

[mossy fern]

Is gatling our most dps ?

[visual patio]

No still rocket punch and v4

I only asked cos looks like he could have gotten 2 more use of v1 and v4

[robust root]

Will . Cant put V1 and V4 on pets as u gotta time them with split etc

also, you dont want them to trigger when you are doing the tests

[visual patio]

That’s fair I don’t got shade in my party 🥲 for tests I just hop on my mount but yeah split would change things

140m lines sounds like fun tho 🤩

[dense monolith]

so you guys take out v1 v4 from pet autobuff for gloom and will?

[velvet sinew]

Lupin x from lupinranger x patoranger stole the pose

Anyways can anyone show me the blaster sb for bossing? And is blaster good in bossing or need team

[velvet sinew]

Can blaster solo c zak at lv 200 full uniques no jahalin?

[robust root]

i take it out for all bossing. partly due to the fact that i wanna get used to casting it myself

[delicate mountain]

Nobody buy if same price as paladin and adele😂

[urban sluice]

Maybe somebody selling Blaster necro or chaos weapon? NA Scania

[stark grotto]

No pinned posts? Can anyone share a skill wheel for newbie blaster? AB and bossing. Please and thank you. Also what hyper passives to take.

[delicate mountain]

Scroll up as hard as you can. This class actives are about a year ago

Blaster vs ark...... If ark can't heal and teleport back to home for storage in ark town, then blaster maybe better except it's kinda old

[mossy fern]

.

[dense monolith]

[autumn egret]

my blaster is doing well

every single piece click click click to abso

loved the recent patch buff 🙂

[dense monolith]

rmb to unique pot tt dom neck so that you can legend pot it

now its stigma stone & radiant exalt gated for me

[acoustic bough]

Is this correct?

[autumn egret]

longest gate

but now prices for it had dropped 2-3x already

[dense monolith]

faf gears for my server still no change, i turned to crafting ancient fodder instead

[dense monolith]

you still need the latter for the 2nd set of trios by the time you hit 215-ish

[acoustic bough]

Wait, so we have 2 trio set for bossing?👀

So 4 slots overall?

[dense monolith]

yes
#1059997593507221555 message

in the far far future we will need 3 sets/6 slots

for 6th job

1st trio is magnum/double/bunker
2nd trio is hammer/revolving cannon/(up to you)

[acoustic bough]

Is there any recommended for the last skill in 2nd trio?

Appreciate the info

[dense monolith]

some chose shotgun punch, i went with hurricane for ab-ing but its up to you

just know that in the far future (~3-4+ years time), we will need shotgun punch AND hurricane for 6th job

[autumn egret]

dont think 3-4yrs

probably +/- 1yr for 6th job

but that only depends on how much time they needed to copy paste the new arcaneshade upgrade system

[acoustic bough]

Whenever your free, could you list the future trio as well :4

Tyty

[dense monolith]

the 6th job enhanced skills dont come all tgt, they were in like 4 parts atm

1st enhanced skill: Magnum/Double
2nd enhanced skill: Bunker
3rd enhanced skill: Revolve Cannon Mastery/Hammer/Shotgun Punch
4th enhanced skill: Revolve Cannon/Hurricane

@acoustic bough this is the roadmap, but we only get the 1st enhanced skill on 6th job release

Patch timing wise, I believe July/Aug Anni will be on VHilla release + arcaneshade gears, then Dec/Jan for 6th job

[acoustic bough]

Appreciate the info boss

[acoustic bough]

Is this true by chance

[autumn egret]

oh you mean the core mastery 1 2 3 4 ?

yeah 1 by 1 or 2 by 2

[sharp quartz]

https://youtu.be/lkS4koudytg?si=Zyy5yDi3IgYlp_bw

No shell no problem for blasters

[acoustic bough]

This looks correct right?

[marble token]

Shotgun punch is better than hurricane imo

I use shotgun punch to AB

I also have a slot with hyper magnum punch/hurricane/muzzle flash that i swap out mp/db/bb to AB

[acoustic bough]

May i see your skill wheels? For ab/boss

[marble token]

AB

Boss

I don't manually hammer smash because I'm lazy

[mossy fern]

I’ve been practicing but it’s so hard to keep track of hammer smash every 10s

And if we fail we lose the fd buff stack

I wish they make hammer smash like a 5s cooldown so it can fit in preset without using it too many times

Or perhaps extend the fd buff stack to 30s

They have done it with ark and other classes where u have to combo to keep up a passive buff.

And now ark buff is 30s instead of 15s, perfectly lined up w his combo

[dense monolith]

longer duration better, imagine losing fd & atk spd buff to lucid/will cutscene

[dense monolith]

Isnt nonboosted hurricane kinda making you easier to get killed by af mobs? While you can still magnum/double albeit shorter range. I'm at af700 for that matter

Also doesnt hammer smash in boss preset kinda locks you in place for that 1s period? Personally dont like that esp for lotus lasers/gloom atks

[marble token]

I can easily tank and 1-2 shot everything in af700

But yea hammer smash has a little lag

[mossy fern]

U should put it in feedback! A lot of classes got that qol improvement already

[dense monolith]

do you still try to optimize hammer smash for bullets? i find doing that lesser now, usually just tap in every 2 bunkers or so to maintain

[mossy fern]

Haha. My blaster is only 212

Hes my alt

I don’t find maximizing bullet is that important

Since I find with higher end bosses, micromanaging bullets isnt worth it when you’re also doing shot call n I find blaster to micromanage a ton.

It’s my experience from running all bosses up to Will on sia and bishop (I run Will on 4 different characters).

My rotation has been hammer smash, then v3, (v1 and 4 on pet)

then in preset 1 (resistance infantry, v2, hyperdrive) , I’d use infantry and v2, once those are over, I’d pop hyperdrive and spam bunkers

I find that the most optimal dps rotation to burst within ds4

And for my preset with MP, I put 3 MP and 1HS to minimize over spamming HS.

[dense monolith]

oh ok, im pretty much following mrmok's setup, basically v1 v4 are off pet autobuffs, only using it for phases now (when gloom opens, after will test checks if i ever get there)

[mossy fern]

Yea definitely manual v1+4 for specific bosses

[acoustic bough]

Do you have a high lvl shade alt?

[mossy fern]

Thats a very specific question haha. And yea.

[acoustic bough]

Kinda bricked my weap on blaster and need a restore scroll

Shade lookin mighty fine rn

[mossy fern]

Shade will be pure dps soon after remaster

[acoustic bough]

Oh…? Fr? How

[mossy fern]

Split will be changed into a fd boost for the team.

A whopping 10% fd

Even angelic buster give the same but it’s permanent

[acoustic bough]

Aint no way

So if i was gonna make a shade main, i should rr?

[mossy fern]

The new shade looks awesome tho

And will be Better dps than rn

[acoustic bough]

Wait besides bish/pally who else be “top” supp

I was planning on building a shade up for supp but if split is tru

[mossy fern]

Sia tbh

Split is still thwre. But instead of giving additional damage, it debuff the boss that increases everyone fd by 10%

That’s number from kmsm

A lot of split mule got nerfed indirectly

But the shade main is happy w the change since they do more dps overall

Albeit they lose their iconic utility

[dense monolith]

something decent from kmsm june patch

[dusk ledge]

Where i can read that patch?

[dense monolith]

https://maplestorym.nexon.com/1198/board/1215/view/2946461

[robust root]

Fun fact : our vitality shield can heal us back to full health in vhilla , even in potion lock status

[dense monolith]

nice, pande starting vhilla training runs tonight?

waiting for 6th job to have extra MDC to run Will

[robust root]

Not sure, maybe go in and play for fun

[dense monolith]

gz on the vhilla clear, dont make nexon nerf us

[robust root]

Hopefully they implement this in the next patch

I heard that they are nerfing all the long iframes like sancro and dark sight as well in this patch

Which is bad news for content like vhilla

[mossy fern]

Did u upload video of u doing hilla?

[mossy fern]

Yea they make everything last slightly longer at the cost of much higher cooldown

Darksight js revamped

[robust root]

Didn’t record

[dense monolith]

yea lots of iframe/recovery skills were hit

on the other hand kmsm didnt have issues with vhilla since they have 6th job now + arcane gears are easier to get

[signal summit]

Returning player. Anyone have updated v-matrix and skill wheel I can see?

[visual patio]

6ix god is back

[marble token]

Cot dam

[marble token]

Nothing has changed since you left. It's just magnum punch and bunker blast still. Hammer smash to keep your buff up. The rest are passive dmg skills and 1 button burst

[signal summit]

cheers

[dawn stratus]

what changed?

[acoustic bough]

Hey! Just wanna reconfirm if these were right? 👀

2nd pic - first trio is for bossing. Is the second set trio needed?
1st pic - this is training trio correct?

[dense monolith]

Just use the 2nd/3rd pic

[acoustic bough]

Theoretically, if I switch out between the 2 ‘trio’ nodes from pic 1 and pic2 - muzzle flash, bunk buster, hammer. Hurricane, hyper and shotgun punch? Would that be more ‘optimal’

If that make sense, cuz looking at it while training/boss, those node skills seems more ideal for their respective needs than what I have rn in pic1/2?

Like shotgun and muzzle be switch basically in node pic 1/2🫡

[dense monolith]

up to you if you prefer, but the 2 sets of bossing + shotgun punch is enough for mobbing as well

[acoustic bough]

Wouldn't it be awkward for shotgun punch + mp?

[dense monolith]

theoretical optiomal is all 3 sets, but we wont bother with it for maybe at least 2 years

[acoustic bough]

Ahhh dam LOL

[dense monolith]

just go with either: mp+dbl or shotgun punch for mobbing

mp+dbl gets you bunker explosions, shotgun punch has more range

[acoustic bough]

Gotcha, cuz rn my nodes consists of have mp+dbl AND Shotgun punch.

I'll see if I can ‘fix’ its appreciate the info btw

[dense monolith]

tbh just run with the boss set, you dont need muzzle flash trio

everyone understands we arent that good at aoe

[signal summit]

Anyone have testing on hold down mp/db vs spamming?

Just learned you can hold down skill lol

[marble token]

It's the same. Just hold down now

[marble token]

Use pic 2/3

If you want to test out yourself, when you do edge of space, write down how many mobs you kill. That's how I used to check. For me Shotgun blast is better at mobbing

Shotgun blast is only good if you can 1 shot

If you redo your trio to just mp, db, bb, you can run with just those two trios and only miss out on a tiny bit of dmg

If you're low on slots*

[acoustic bough]

Would the ‘tiny bit’ dmg be worth redoing? I have the resources but just wondering whats the dmg, cuz if super insignificant than Ima do it ltr

Appreciate all the inputs from yall🫡

[marble token]

Most of your damage is from skill nodes

Then after that is mb/db/bb

At your level just focus on mp/db/bb

If you want that extra like 5% then later on you can incorporate hammer smash and revolving cannon

[acoustic bough]

And you run 2 sets correct?

[marble token]

AB

Bossing

But only because I have a ton of slots

^^^ You can run these two pretty much forever if you wanted to

If I didn't use shotgun for AB then I would run just mp/db/bb for both AB and bossing

[acoustic bough]

It would slowly tilt be til I finish it lol not bad wish the vskills were maxed too

[dense monolith]

think other than slight delay for the game to register that you are holding down, its the same

im still tapping cuz im testing pushing bunkers asap or keeping them for iframe

[ashen swan]

Anyone know where blaster stands in terms of Dps

[marble token]

Blaster has the lowest lines of any character in msm

According to the spreadsheet anyways

[dense monolith]

Just remaster resistance at this point lol

[marble token]

The last time they adjusted blaster, they broke it for over a year

[ashen swan]

Oooo which spreadsheet

[marble token]

There's a spreadsheet you can call up in the bot channel

[ashen swan]

👀 is it the outdated one from songji or whoever?

[marble token]

It was current up to Will I think

[dense monolith]

hasnt been updated for at least a year now

[robust root]

im waiting for this patch . hopefully it's in august

[ashen swan]

Am I crazy, I don’t see it in the !msminfo command

[dense monolith]

this? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yUwSaHJmXBOvc-eI0UD7EMVyu4WUc2OwjkXPbMa4AWI/edit?usp=sharing

so out of date its kinda laughable tbh

honestly i like collecting numbers but this is a thankless role

[ashen swan]

Ohhhhh tyty

[ashen swan]

@visual patio my goat ionysis blaster, how do you feel about blaster in dps, gameplay, and skill ceiling vs hayato or just in general

Or any other big pp blasters around

[dense monolith]

Gameplay is just 2min main burst, 1min mini burst

[visual patio]

Decent burst decent sustain damage honestly I just love the play style. On command iframes feel like spot dodging in smash bros and mobility make the class enjoyable for me and my fit my play style. I never paid too much attention to hyatto so idk how the gonna compare but hyatto has gotten some attention recently

I don’t got cap like the others to compare damage honestly you gotta talk to the big dawg

[dense monolith]

We are all small fishes my team recently cleared harch only

[robust root]

Our burst can definitely be stronger and faster

i think we prolly have one of the worst V3 skills in the game

u need around 1 to 2 sec to cast the skill and it only has 400 odd lines

while pala and dk has v skills that does 1k ish lines,

our current V2 and V3 combined does about 1.2k lines

and it take like 5 to 6 secs for all the lines to come out

and not to mention our V1 and V4 skills take around 30 to 40 secs for all the lines to hit

DS4 duration is only 15 secs

[dense monolith]

one day nexon will keep buffing us to reach line count parity

Evan/AB one tap skill outdps 2 of our V skills

[marble token]

Not enough Blasters to create a movement

There's only a handful of active Blaster in Inosys

Like literally 5 active Blaster mains

[dense monolith]

Only good thing is that they probably wont nerf us

[night dock]

We don’t know that 👀

[ashen swan]

I see thanks guys

[autumn egret]

[dense monolith]

Sia good also since she badly need node slots for her skills

[drowsy timber]

I realised sia can boost anything also

So its a win win

[dense monolith]

Just prepare to have 200iq moment when solving her boost nodes

Wah sadge bruh haha. Reading this chat macam top Hayato players only stay because all in already

Imma hyperburn Paladin for now haha. Safe-ish option in case reroll down the road

[autumn egret]

nah even if all in they can easily get a new char up by cutting eq

character level is minor thing for them

thats what king did in a2s everytime a new warrior class out

he now all in on erel hahah

[drowsy timber]

I rmb he did that on adele

And only lasted for awhile

[autumn egret]

becos he realized adele is crap compared to pc

[olive folio]

Haha perhaps 5* dom pendant only a matter of time for them too

Kinda wild

[autumn egret]

5* is easy for them

its a matter of how much they want to spend to obtain it

there are many self made millionaire in this era they can easily spent 100k 200k on other games

You know that your class is dead when it took you 24 hours to get to top 4

Even top 3 stop played... Is blasters so damn bad?

[signal summit]

Blaster fun and burst feels good

Good mobility and many many iframes

Mechanical class

[dense monolith]

no hands = play pally and dps with iframe on

then get rekt on the iframe rebalance patch

[torpid cloak]

So I keep main Blaster then, thanks 🙏

[ashen swan]

What hyper skills passives - all bunker and power punch and deadly punch crit?

[dense monolith]

blaster hyper skill is just 1 2 3 6 7

[ashen swan]

That’s to boss?

Or main?

[torpid cloak]

Both

[crimson portal]

[torpid cloak]

EU Scania

[crimson portal]

jeez

[ashen swan]

How the trios go 👀

[ashen swan]

Perfect trio: Bunker, normal magnum punch and double blast?

[signal summit]

@ashen swan

[signal summit]

@ashen swan

[autumn egret]

hohoho

almost there

[dense monolith]

Will solo? Crazy how Nexon didnt care abt fixing capoo dmg skin

[autumn egret]

yup kek

that capoo dmg skin sprite not clearing itself

[dense monolith]

always tot it was me cuz i saw other people with the skin not no ghost images

[autumn egret]

the other capoo skin no such issue

only this unit skin

[polar cape]

Anyone have ab wheel for blaster?

Just want to see whether is my gear not enough or not

Keep dying at 144

[signal summit]

@polar cape

however if just an alt, may be better to replace shotgun punch with mp/db

[polar cape]

Ok ty

[polar cape]

Well die again in 37 min

[signal summit]

I hate to bring bad news, but blaster is one of the worst AB chars in the game 😭

[polar cape]

I remember my old acc can do it easily

With this gear

Why can't do it now lol

[marble token]

Get rid of hammer smash. The delay is too long of you're still squishy

And maybe get rid of hurricane til you're more beefy

[polar cape]

K

[dense monolith]

biggest death cause in sf144+ is no S yellow jewel set

[polar cape]

I have it

[marble token]

Are you doing alright now with mp/db and bb @polar cape

[dense monolith]

blasters are never alright just jk

[signal summit]

blaster worst auto battle in the game...

[polar cape]

Not sure see first

Cuz now not using blaster to ab

[edgy rapids]

Hello, I just hit lvl 200 blaster

Can someone help me set up my wheel for bossing

[signal summit]

We need to pin the wheels and v matrix setup…

[signal summit]

@edgy rapids

[marble token]

At 200, it might be better just to run mp/db and bb for both boss and ab

Shotgun is only good if you can 1 shot

[autumn egret]

66.xx m i still couldnt solo Will

rip

p3 left 25-30%

[edgy rapids]

Gatling Punch says buff last 15secs, but when i use it, it only last around 5 secs,
Do i have to level up the skill first??

[autumn egret]

probably tooltip bug

showing wrong duration per level

[autumn egret]

@dense monolith does gattling punch's fd buff boost the dmg of bullet blast if i use bullet blast first and gattling punch

before bullet blast explode, will it get the fd buff?

[dense monolith]

Not sure but probably yes. Both skills caps easily

[autumn egret]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-V04hy_QPiI

[dense monolith]

lol wads ur mdc? p3 is reason why im doing grp will, also book drop chance

[autumn egret]

no team wan 65+2.7m noob blaster

i only +5.4m in 2 weeks or so

other boss im 70m

in will im 68

dont even know v1 is a buff or nerf

@dense monolith nexon and their description lol

[dense monolith]

oh def a buff, cuz rocket punch activates on magnum punch/double blast right

but now v2 v3 can activate it too without using charges

kinda big ngl

[autumn egret]

i see so no charge consumed

basically is free buff

means it last longer

i hope after buff i can solo will

at least i gotta have a new mesos income every 3 weeks

trying to sell off my hat n suit to get an a50 hat

[dense monolith]

i mean we are kind of past the phase where continous dmg is impt, now using rocket punch/aftershock image on boss phase changes is the meta so the line count drop shudnt be that bad

[autumn egret]

yeah now i have to work out on how to burst Will in p1

v2 and v3 on a color or 1 color each

[dense monolith]

oh i put both on a preset, they are 60s cd so the rotation is somewhat ok

v1v4 buff, v2v3, v2v3 (no buff), repeat

probably some getting used to that you dont fire off v2v3 without v1v4 buff if you are waiting for phase changes

[autumn egret]

thats what i do now

[dense monolith]

the -50% skill dmg on magnum punch for +1 line kinda funny ngl

[autumn egret]

mean if our cap dmg is not affected

+1 line is always good

hahahaha

[dense monolith]

thank god its one of the hexa skill we get on 6th job, so at least that is taken care of with the MDC increase

[autumn egret]

[robust root]

I think we get 396 more lines every 2 mins from our vskills

[autumn egret]

hope its good enough for me to solo Will

[robust root]

Our burst will be quite insane

But I’m not too sure how other classes are buffed

[dense monolith]

most got a 15-20% line count increase, the ones that were converted from sub-2min to 2min CD are the real game changer

[autumn egret]

shadower is already insane, able to solo will at 52m

they buffed them even more

i think now 46-50m can solo gg

idk how is this balancing lmao

op class more op

the rest just from under avg become avg

[robust root]

Hmm why so ?

[honest cloak]

How are you soloing will at that mdc bro

[sharp hollow]

It’s not an overwhelming buff for Shadowers

[dense monolith]

i mean just generally to consider classes' synergy with the rest of their V skills

like for us, if you double linecount for V2 V3 due to becoming 2min CD, the burst with V1 V4 active would be crazy

[autumn egret]

still buffed

thats not balancing

balancing = up and down

we dont see much of things going down in terms of lines and % to scale in "balance"

in short shadower still remain op in top1 burst

[autumn egret]

ask the shadowers they can

i need over 65m to solo as a blaster after patch

[sharp hollow]

I wonder is Shadower playstyle hard?

[robust root]

Definitely not harder than blaster

[olive folio]

Balancing relative to game difficulty

[dense monolith]

i see u are consistent top 2 in mu lung, keep shining our class 🥹

[autumn egret]

but i like how i can just ignore most of boss skills to save my pe

HAHAHAHA

i went harchon solo earlier

omg the PE drain is like fountain

almost 60 PE to solo

never doing it again

[marble token]

Do it after Will

Will > HArchon

[robust root]

This is what kmsm got . I think the overall line count increase is almost the same for us

[dense monolith]

got to test no. of rocket punchs procs tmr ig

[robust root]

I think for Gatling punch , we will get 18 x 24 hits, for bullet blast , we will get 5 x 24 hits

[dense monolith]

we'll see, kinda funny how we get a +12 line count on a 300+ line count skill

[robust root]

Heh

[dense monolith]

like cmon, at least a 10% boost ffs?

[robust root]

But net gain will be 372 lines proc with the line count nerf from bullet blast

[autumn egret]

[dense monolith]

we be "ok this looks alright lets find out tmr"

meanwhile other popular/meta classes are malding over not enough buffs

[faint zinc]

Nice

[autumn egret]

ikr

[velvet sinew]

Is blaster good aft changes or still bad considering other classes and nodes issues

[autumn egret]

how much u willing to invest into blaster

if u not going for 250

suggest u dont play

[dense monolith]

have no idea how Rocket Punch procs with line count numbers lol

[robust root]

Hmm when I cast my v3 instantly without holding the button , I don’t get any rocket punch procs

When I hold it , I get 284 lines of rocket punch procs . Hmmm new meta ?

This is when I press v3 with down arrow
