[fierce light]

Tbf it's possible to get 1m30s with the old Hydroflare build

Just run the non-lethal burn talent and spam Ember

But yeah on other stages, it will be more apparent.

[woeful monolith]

Well I mean ya since there is hellhole, I was speaking in general I guess.

Im sure Enigma is going to be obliterated wednesday. Especially the Thunder one.

[pearl raft]

All new anima Rings

[flat pier]

do we know what bosses will there be in enigma peak yet?

[amber terrace]

may new boss

[limpid pecan]

its possible to get similar time with normal hydroflare build

i got 1:20 without even having 12 scorching

would be possible to go lower but need to play perfectly and get good rng

i think like 1:10 should be doable

if everything is perfect

[fathom bobcat]

[Eerie] form Matron Yushan on ice, Metal on lightning and Tree on poison. I assume. About rest of the filler, I won't even speculate.

[woeful monolith]

Yes but this is because of hellhole

[limpid pecan]

i mean its helpful but the main damage comes from scorching

like the problem is mostly scorching dmg output

thunder counter build just streamlines triggering it

but if u get good rng with boss releasing many blues

the difference is not that crazy

like rn i think optimal strat is

4x trigger ember

get good rng and parry blue in first 10sec

boss will change to ghost phase

u need to defuse + parry one ghost early

then u can nuke boss down to minimal hp

then parry one more ghost, keep scorching charge

defuse aoe flame

shoot him in the head to switch phases

and preserve scorching

then u start next phase nuking him with saved scorching

and hopefully he releases one more blue quickly

then he goes ghost phase

and here u need to parry enough ghosts

to put him low enough

so he dies after ghost phase is over

last season having scorching was still strong on hydro build

just not crazy strong

now its strong enough to be a build on its own

separate from normal hydroflare

either way i find this build fun

honestly i would rather see more builds buffed to this kind of power lvl

[woeful monolith]

[lone umbra]

that is a lot of msgs to read

[short meadow]

[woeful monolith]

I read the last sentence of you saying you wish more builds would be buffed to this kind of power level and that was it for me. This build is not its own build its a hybrid of Thunder Counter/ Hydroflare dependant on having alot of rares. This is exactly why it is hard to get people into showdown, especially now with all the vets having 3 rares PER jade and Max attributes. Finishing the top Yama levels in under a minute and I am sure Enigma will have a huge disparity in times as well just gives no desire to even want to try. Hydroflare build was strong last season nonetheless but Ice Mod still had its place, Thunder Counter would still compete, and Skyfire as well. Hydroflare is still second but it cant beat this build regardless of Hell Hole.
Imagine trying to start out and catch up to any of these Scorching Counter builds with how hard it is to farm Crystals and Fragments right now....it is a joke.

[limpid pecan]

u missed one thing. it was already the case before u needed multiple rare attributes per jade and honestly maxing out regular stats to 100% is probably more expensive than getting rare attribute

there was already build like this, moderation viper that required multiple moderations

[woeful monolith]

Wishing more builds were as strong defeats the point of having skill...If the boss fights are this quick it lowers the skill ceiling and gives people less room to make a mistake. Having to know the bosses patterns and being consistant is less important vs just having a strong build to practically 2 shot the boss.

[limpid pecan]

the truth is u wont compete with these top dudes even if u have all souljades with maxed stats. they played so much they play much better and understand bosses much better

like look at some video from cleraring yama 60 last season

with copper ward

guy can get oneshot at any moment

but still pulls through

[woeful monolith]

Yes but that was earned over a long fight

[limpid pecan]

the yama is capped at 6min anyway rn

they went for different approach this season

[woeful monolith]

55 seconds vs 6 minutes even 3 minutes is big difference of consistency

[limpid pecan]

its less about grinding down gigantic healthbars and more about perfect execution

remember also we are very early in the showdown season

the scaling is still pretty weak on current stage

[woeful monolith]

Perfect execution is crazy, well just agree to disagree.

[limpid pecan]

the boss isnt even sense lvl 1030 yet

also they removed P2w from yama

last season cleanse stones were extremely helpful

in high yama runs

another thing is last season rng played very heavy role

even if u played perfectly, without luck getting jades fast, you would not be able to clear in time

[limpid pecan]

remember its not pvp. its pve

its fun to be OP

there is still many things in showdown that make it accessible for new players

like for instance new poison jades require very little investment to clear fast

they should fix rng involved in getting rare attributes though

like instead of trashing bad jades to get more rare attribs it would be better if we could just spend some fragments/crystals to redeem flux shard

[woeful monolith]

This is a completely different subject....

[limpid pecan]

last season nothing could compete with hydroflare in yama

it was pointless to even try any other build

[woeful monolith]

Missing the point of what we were discussing

Hydroflare wasn't 2 tapping bosses, I could care less if there is a Thunder Scorching build but it is to strong.

[limpid pecan]

its 2 tapping bosses that are very low scaling

current paragon 1 is laughably weak

compared to last season yama 50+

when they unlock last stage of yama this season

probably will take several minutes at least

even with thunder scorch

[woeful monolith]

you cant seem to stay on subject here...

[limpid pecan]

what is ur subject here?

[woeful monolith]

I know last season Yama was different from this season, point is regardless of how weak it currently is, no other builds are doing what this thunder scorching crap is.

Ignoring the one Hell Hole level people want to bring up, the disparity in times is nothing like Hydroflare was last season.

[limpid pecan]

i mean even last boss

without thunder build

u could do it in 30 sec or something

probably

[woeful monolith]

.....

[limpid pecan]

yeah thunder scorch was still faster

but at least on EU u could still claim top1 or top2

without even using strongest build

thats pretty accessible no?

[woeful monolith]

..............................

once again

[limpid pecan]

the guys from 2 onwards are just straight up trolling

if it takes them

almost 5 minutes

doing this boss

[limpid pecan]

i mean if u compared last season

hydroflare clears 60

next non-hydro build

mybe 50?

[woeful monolith]

Good night

[limpid pecan]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1058165069499879514/1264976589117194372/icon_bubble_waitou.gif

normal hydro top1

i dont even have maxed scorching

[polar light]

This week yama thunder scorch is not that better than the hydroflare build

Thunder scorch is slightly better still

[limpid pecan]

ye i agree

last week was bigger difference

as the boss was kinda pepega after switching stage, not wanting to release many blues

[fierce light]

Ew, Aegis-Break Assault is so bad.

[fierce light]

Yeah I got 1:12, I'm at Scorching 6.

[limpid pecan]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1180750258611953768/1284239781336715375/fatasswizardcastsafireballonyou.gif

[fierce light]

Honestly, it makes sense for Scorching to be stronger than the Defuse Burns. Harder to land a Parry than a Defuse. It also makes sense for the Defuse Burn build to be stronger than the Elemental ones, at least against bosses since it requires more mechanical skill to pull off.

I don't think Scorching should be as strong as it is though. Nearly 5x the Burn damage than Ember and base damage that's higher than Toxin Blast, while also being able to reach a higher max damage bonus (x1.6 for Toxin Blast, x3.35 for Scorching) is a bit nuts.

[woeful monolith]

Literally everyone keeps crutching on Hell Hole omen ....

[fierce light]

I mean tbf between the Jellyfish Omen for Poison, Divine Strikes for Thunder and Hell Hole for Ember, a lot of Yama's is abusing the Omens for extra DPS.

[limpid pecan]

even stuff like frozen spikes

u can defuse for free

but this defuse is only beneficial to certain builds

[river stratus]

i dont stay on hellhole

that run was with water and fire raged

[hearty rivet]

Looks like devs learned from the thundercounter+scorch thing ^^;

[fierce light]

That's the way the old Counter Heal Potential worked

Which I'm surprised they haven't done for Scorching. You also only get one stack of Mighty Counter Resonance from a Thunder Counter.

[hearty rivet]

Ohhh, didn't know that. Was it an 1.0 thing?

[fierce light]

The collection bonus does that as well

Only thing that doesn't is the attribute.

[hearty rivet]

👀 Huh, true! I forgot about that collection bonus

[twin ledge]

@woeful monolith yo u ever end up getting the skyrace done just wondering?

[robust portal]

paragon 1 abyss is kicking my ass, i cant beat it, i have a poisen build which i kno isnt the most ideal but i just wanna kno is it just a case of learning to not miss and defuses or parrys, i defo feel like my damage as poisen is sub par tho but ive annoyingly got alot of red attributes on the jades so im hesitant to respec into a higher damage meta build i see topping the boards

playing as feria but ive tried it as a few differernt characters

even still i see someone with the same build as me cleared it and is ranked 6 so it makes me wonder is it just me not playing correctly or missing something glaringly obvious

[fierce light]

Attribute-wise you want:

• Increase DMG to Boss
• Attack
• [Windfall]
  with the 4th slot varying between:
• [Windfall]
• [Scorching]
• Poison Blast DMG
• Melee Weapon DMG

Paragon 1 isn't very ideal for a Poison build though cause of Hell Hole.

[robust portal]

i can defo believe that, but the question is, how has this guy with the same build as me and worse attributes cleared it in 2 minutes and got to rank 6

[robust portal]

i cant work out how he has nuked the boss down so quick, like possibly a solid attempt with good rng and no mistakes or what? i dont feel like im doing the damage i need to be doing or maybe im doing the incorrect rotations etc, idk whatever it is its bugging me, hence me reaching out here, espesh after seeing your vids of clean af optimal fights its crazy to watch im ngl

[robust portal]

i got 12 scorching, 75% moderation and 2 windfall, all highest rolls, so a literal shit load of stacked gems

[limpid pecan]

https://media.discordapp.net/stickers/1175185005815803946.png?size=160&name=TessaGasm

[fierce light]

How who nuked the boss? Depends on the build they're using

[fierce light]

Oh damn

[robust portal]

rank 6 on the leaderboards got my build with worse attributes and killed em in 2 minutes

[fierce light]

What potential tree are you running?

[robust portal]

i suppose some of my rolls on the non red attributes havent been attempted to get closer to higher rolls

[fierce light]

Aegis-Break Rage, Hydro's Bound, & Poisonous Assault are the most important glyphs.

[robust portal]

ive tried a few different variations but im have this right now

[fierce light]

Okay that's right. What attacks are you using on the boss (i.e. Charged Vertical, Charged Horizontal, etc)?

[robust portal]

i used all my recasts i just had maxing out all my red attributes, maybe ill just farm more jades to get higher rolls on em

the aegis break spam with defuses when i can and parrys, maybe i aint really got the pattern of the boss down and get hit too much or make mistakes

ive had some decent enough runs with crazy long parry chains which got me into 2nd phase but thats it, i cant see how someone using my build is blitzing the boss in 2 minutes unless im doing something incorrect, like i saw a vid of someone clearing it using a different built and absolute melts the boss, aint no way poisen build doing that

i really am a bit annoyed i just settled for poisen as it feels like im just worse off with no real other benefits i guess, idk its good in enigma but there aint too much else content so basically bosses are the thing you want to be best at currently in the state of the content we got to do is what i am forced to think

[fierce light]

Yeah I'd recommend setting up a Poison build and work on a Hydroflare-based build

Poison will help a lot on those Speedruns with lots of mobs, while Hydroflare will work on anything Boss-based (except the 4-headed Giant).

[robust portal]

this what i got going on right now

even this and reds on all but stormstride currently

[fierce light]

What time did you get?

[robust portal]

switching to something like this

i aint even beat em, but i feel like i was way over 2 minutes even the furthest i got alone, i guess i am getting hit too much because im making mistakes so thats on me really, but seeing the rank 6 doing that i would love to see him kill it so i could see how he was playing exactly tbh

[woeful monolith]

last season yes, this new one I havent t r ied

[robust portal]

tbh i suppose now i think about it i do stupid things like defuse when i get hit after by the following blue attack, but the amount of damage im dead so quickly, not much room for mistakes at all

watching a feria nuke them down so fast using another build it literally didnt even give them time to be able to get hit so much, like the almost insta dropped them into 2nd phase with insane burst damage

the video i see is lordshen beating in 55seconds, and i think im seeing them using the hydroflare build youve advised to go for

but yeah they are so crisp and on point with every single input, i suppose im sloppy and just need to fine tune and learn, i just never had this complete stop before this stage released

[limpid pecan]

time to sleep i guess

xd

[robust portal]

okay i think i recognised my issue, i need to just dodge more and not defuse and work off parrys

coz you get some stupid 5+ parry chains ive noticed

ayy i cleared it atleast, thank fuck

not amazing time but alot to perfect so im fine with that

[limpid pecan]

@fierce light what are fastest builds to clear enigma solo?

and what time would u expect on celestra map?

[fierce light]

Fastest iirc was like 3:30 with the Thunder Scorch build. The Desert map does seem to take longer cause of the way the camps are spread.

[twin ledge]

Oh if u need route I made a video for the best route I’ve found atm

@fierce light wanna farm ruins?

[twin ledge]

Wait nvm

[fierce light]

Max fatigue atm, waiting for tomorrow

[woeful monolith]

I low key just did it , supringly easy . Time is a bit high I think.

[woeful monolith]

appreciate it tho

[void perch]

how u spent fatigue

[bronze hornet]

in showdown?

[void perch]

aye. i mean, 2400 is big

[twin ledge]

I found a new route that can get u below 28 to 25 seconds

But only one weapon I’ve been able to do it was heng

Trying to get it lower but really hard with this weird lag

[woeful monolith]

Alot of people are running it I think is why, Im not a big fan of the pillars they put in they dont register for shit.

[woeful monolith]

How many season does it take for the red badge, Ive done like 3 or 4 seasons and im still blue. But now I have a red one in my inventory which is strange

[twin ledge]

No it’s not they don’t register it’s the ping in fairy land

If it was fairy land could get below 20 seconds because I wouldn’t have to work about slowing down

At start I lose like 10 seconds just to land on top of it perfectly

[woeful monolith]

ya

[woeful monolith]

i kinda figred way to land on it pretty good from first scale rush

But the floating platforms I just cant get a hold of so i just decided to slide down the ramp and im only about 2 seconds behind the other routes time

[half whale]

So how do i get the red secret ring when i have useless rock?

[twin ledge]

How u got the useless rock

[half whale]

I heard it only appeared on few first stage from stage 1 to 4

there is a chance

[half whale]

and i got it on stage 3/15

[twin ledge]

No im saying u get red how u got the useless lol

[half whale]

ah i meant how to turn it into the red one xD

[twin ledge]

Yea u get it like u got the useless rock but later on

[half whale]

ah

okay tks

[twin ledge]

I’ve got all rings but 2 range I swear they never appear anymore after I get it 2 times and that red ring too I couldn’t evenly get it but finally got it randomly

I swear the range rings be rigged for me

[half whale]

dang xD for me it'll be the gambit one

[twin ledge]

Now we have 3x more rings and I didn’t get it last season it’s never appearing lol

Gambit should be called the useless one tbh

[half whale]

haven't seen it or have it since the starting of this season xD

sad me

you be fine xD everything have it own unique trait

[twin ledge]

I’ve seen it so much but I’ve only ever grabbed it once

[half whale]

you made me sad bro :<

[twin ledge]

Oh was just saying it’s the worse and useless thing I’ve seen naraka add in game it’s like they couldn’t think of something and just put some random asf like they did with being yoto and not Tessa to showdown

[half whale]

ahhhh

[limpid pecan]

hm i wonder what im doing wrong

[drifting lance]

🎉 | ImbaSkillz leveled up!

[limpid pecan]

was getting like 7+ min clears

but i still dont have optimal build

defuse raging flame still in, waiting for 1 more scorching to throw it out

i do a bunch of mistakes for sure. like i dont always have scorching charge saved when i move between camps

[hard glade]

Just go to Nirriti & repeat, 45 ftg per game. Do normal Nirriti if you need crystal & if you need crystal + jades for fragments go Nightscream Nirriti

[robust portal]

lol whats this face

me wasting my red attributes on poisen jades?

[warped falcon]

Does the red anima ring only appear in legend mode?

[twin ledge]

Dam showdown needs to do a better job at making shit less obvious of how rigged game is for na

They need to stop doing that weird favoritism and fix the fcking servers sad ass game fr fr I can’t

Could of had many times under 1 minutes on Yama newer stage

[tranquil beacon]

I got it in normal mode

[twin ledge]

But everytime I get that time needed game does weird as shit Ik for a dam fact boss doesn’t do but u know def isn’t rigged weird asf how obvious it is

[warped falcon]

Wow youre so lucky… 300 games later and i still dont have it >:

[magic prairie]

Only certain weapons have the red jade so better make sure u play a hero that has the weapon (gs, dagger, duals at least)

[limpid pecan]

longsword too

[warped falcon]

Yeah i usually play viper or tarka. I was told by someone to restart if i didn’t get useless rock before the first boss so I’ve been doing that but still no luck. Does anyone know if the chances of getting is higher in trios mode?

[limpid pecan]

they increased chance to get it this patch

i got it once yesterday

[south tusk]

Try Temmy I got useless rock n red jade first run after I spam with viper for 2week 😅

[limpid pecan]

dont think trios vs solos matters

[warped falcon]

Oh okkk ill play some more later then and try again :<

[warped falcon]

Okkkk

[limpid pecan]

https://discord.com/channels/750237703739539497/1288452051734626415

i posted some thoughts on showdown

[static holly]

any trick to get aqua chains 😦 still missing it

[fierce light]

Appears to be random tbh

[static holly]

playing viper ning ice all night dont have it, swap to thunder and get it at stage 2, really weird

[urban marlin]

hi, im trying to get Red Gelid Yushan badge, only done Hard so far, 775 Power thingy, can anyone tell me what i should do now?

i have the full Hard campaign done, Nirriti Hard done, Doom 9 stars, Yama Gold 2

i cant progress any further so im asking here if anyone has an idea of what my goal should be rn

[hidden creek]

keep farming nirriti and enigma for a good set of soul jades

[urban marlin]

i have a good set afaik

[hidden creek]

so what are you trying to achieve

[urban marlin]

thanks to mabutooq

Gelid Nightscream

[hidden creek]

you can't do it?

[urban marlin]

then Speedrun

i havent tried tbh

im 775, recommation is 850

[hidden creek]

then go up your sense level

[urban marlin]

ive been told she is super aggro and pretty tough

[urban marlin]

how? do i replay any level?

like what if i spam Gelid Hard, is that efficient?

im new new to showdown haha

[hidden creek]

as i stated, nirriti and enigma farming

[urban marlin]

ahhh

forgot i could enhance

i dont even have Enigma unlocked

depressing

[hidden creek]

it unlock after you cleared chap 4 nightscream iirc

[fierce light]

Each mission has a max level that it can drop. Farming it past that point will be inefficient. Chapter Missions also generally just have the worse Fatigue / Souljade ratio, so you're better off in Nirriti.

[twin ledge]

Interesting % on conversion

[urban marlin]

grinding Nirriti rn, my autistic ahh self wants to get all Cards too so win win ig

is Fatigue that important? im at 1k+ rn so 100% Rewards, lost 50% already lmao

or 33%, not sure

[fierce light]

Well if you're not reaching the cap weekly, then probably not. It pretty much determines your progress per week.

[urban marlin]

ah okay

[heavy gulch]

I want some one to help me with showdown

[fierce light]

Do you have questions or you need in-game help?
For finding groups, I'd recommend #🐲┃showdown-lfg.

[heavy gulch]

Oh oky

[warped falcon]

How do you finish this? I been stuck for 2 weeks now

[fierce light]

It's a weekly quest. Any of them that mention Nirriti's Ruins counts.

[warped falcon]

Okkk Ty

[hearty rivet]

huh in this new game mode poison vipers just melt everything 👀

[fierce light]

Yeah, every ability cast summons water spears that hit everything

[hidden creek]

so

is it worth to spend ftg

[near echo]

does anyone know which stage is the best to farm poison jades?

[fierce light]

The event will be when the 2nd part is out. Otherwise you farm the new chapter on Nightscream or hope that they drop in Nirriti's Ruins Nightscream.

[near echo]

So it's more by luck, thanks for the tips

[hidden creek]

bruh

w/o a mod build how long it gonna take to finish this challenge

[fierce light]

You can use Tarka and spam in Ultimate.
Or use Valda and spam her low cooldown ability.

[hidden creek]

oya

tarka actually good

[limpid pecan]

finally some good luck

no more ghetto setup

i tried stormstride sword, incineration and defuse flaming blade

flaming blade seems kinda useless

stormstride sword is rly good

incineration not bad also

but idk hard to test on enigma

prolly need to do testing in yama

stromstride sword is excellent for clearing mobs though

[wispy garnet]

now 2x more scorch and it´s perfection xD jk that looks nasty

[fierce light]

Bruh, what is this

[subtle bramble]

😭 but when you want moderation it refuses to give it

[peak finch]

What is the maximum level of scorching now?

[fierce light]

Still +12

[thorny bay]

anyone knows what that is?

the water spears omen

[pearl raft]

Use ur skill

[thorny bay]

any?

im using kurumi

[pearl raft]

Yea

[thorny bay]

it will do something or?

ok now i see it

thanks

[amber terrace]

@fierce light lol, i think i see this skill somewhere

[fierce light]

Haha nice

[amber terrace]

@fierce light new boss phase 2 has skill look like boomerang

[fierce light]

Good to know

Congrats on the win

[amber terrace]

@fierce light game gimme scorching 19 rn

[timid stirrup]

What is the optimal fatigue usage again? 150% enigma 100% nirriti?

[amber terrace]

Crystal = Nirriti, Jades = Enigma

[timid stirrup]

thanx

[lucid ore]

you're rolling away your rare attribute? I guess if you only want scorching

[fierce light]

More useful having any other rare or a max attribute than Moderation on that build.

[lucid ore]

My build problem right now but I'm scare of rolling away the rares stats

Got like 3-4 moderations and a few scorching on my poison build for wuchen.. he doesn't need those

feels bad rolling them away .. idk

[fierce light]

Yeah I'd roll those away last

But Moderation is pretty much useless for Thunder Scorch, unless you're Viper ig.

[amber terrace]

@fierce light i wanna ask, farm in event is better?

[fierce light]

For Crystals no, maybe for Fragments.

[amber terrace]

wow nice

i need fragments

[fierce light]

I don't think it beats Enigma w/ Gold Key though.

[amber terrace]

150% with 6k luck

[pearl stone]

guys ennigma poision weildingg any one ?

need 2

[amber terrace]

what do u can do?

[queen vigil]

Hi, does anyone know what the new potential of this build is?

[queen vigil]

thanks dark zero < 3

[queen vigil]

is the same for copper, true?

[fierce light]

Yes, Copper is useless without Blazing Flame (the Green Node at the end).

[pearl stone]

guys can i get a tteam for enigma peak ?

[queen vigil]

thankssss

[queen vigil]

I tried it without copper, now go with copper to see how it goes

[dusk plover]

#🐲┃showdown-lfg

[civic harness]

can i get spring's call in suffer no demon even if i didn't complete miasma swirl nightscream to unlock it?

[limpid pecan]

how hard is new enigma peak?

[civic harness]

the answer is yes

[round glacier]

Suffer no demon is great for reaching max level lmao

[chrome agate]

1 min clear and like 15-20 jades for me

[hidden creek]

15-20 jades?

[subtle bramble]

I only get like 5-6 ish

Still good for farming tho since it's so fast to complete

Haven't checked if it uses fatigue tho 🤦‍♀️

[fathom bobcat]

Peak complete

[flat pier]

so like everyone is stuck at 1080 progress this week?

[limpid pecan]

dont u get 1100+ if u clear enigma peak?

[flat pier]

no

i am at 1080

what am i missing o.0?

[fathom bobcat]

Yes, you get it.

[flat pier]

so diligent study, fabled hero, and great haste "Red" badges are still no clearable right?

[fathom bobcat]

Challenge of the week?

[limpid pecan]

maybe u didnt complete some nirriti challenges?

i believe i am 1029 without clearing enigma peak

[flat pier]

nothing left to complete except the weekly thingy

[limpid pecan]

and other page?

[fathom bobcat]

Giant killer

[limpid pecan]

u need to kill 8 bosses in enigma peak

[flat pier]

so even after i defeat the final boss, i will be 1080 o.o

[limpid pecan]

wdym u will be 1109

[fathom bobcat]

you had 1079

[flat pier]

oooooh shoot i thought i had 1050 only

[fathom bobcat]

+30

[flat pier]

ok ok

[limpid pecan]

https://media.discordapp.net/stickers/1175184894381531247.png?size=160&name=MatariLaugh

[flat pier]

so i will complete it when my friends come tonight lol

sorry xD and thank you both

[fierce light]

How's Enigma Peak compared to last season?

[fathom bobcat]

Somewhat more sweaty, it seems to me. There were Eerie forms of Aquatic Omnius (both), Wood (both), Rock (both). Initial bosses are the same as on Topaz.

Only thing is, Beast died very quickly from poison.

[limpid pecan]

guess his body parts exploded?

[fathom bobcat]

Ofc. And two players with poison kept him from attacking, just breaking aegis by cd along with his limbs. So you can save a lot of time on him.

[fierce light]

Yeah Elements and Extraneous sources do a crap ton of damage to his parts

[finite lily]

whats a good way to increase sense level? first time playing 2.0 and it feels like no matter what I do my drops are kinda low

[fierce light]

They won't be more than 3 levels higher than you. Between Nirriti Normal and the Limited Time Mode would be the fastest. When you can clear the first 3 bosses of Enigma Domain, that's also an option.

[fathom bobcat]

What about levels from temporary event? They are very quick to get through even in solo.

second one has level sense of 1010 for dropped jades

[finite lily]

I seeee, has it always been like that with the 3 levels higher thing?

if so I don't remember that being a thing in 1.0

dementia is catching up to me

[fierce light]

Yeah pretty much.

[hard glade]

Yeah lol. Finally Cleared all Peak!

[amber terrace]

[short meadow]

I did 1017 on first week

Still on 1017 sense

[static holly]

=)) too lazy :3

[short meadow]

I'm on a vacation actually

[limpid pecan]

https://media.discordapp.net/stickers/1207822625003274351.png?size=160&name=KurumiEvil

[short meadow]

yh like everyone got max sense

I will start farming after this week

[limpid pecan]

https://tenor.com/view/rollingraccoon-awe-cute-raccoon-weirdpets-gif-3970759

[short meadow]

When peragon 2 will unlock?

[limpid pecan]

it opened today

eerie omnius rock

with stone monster

[short meadow]

I can pass on my first try i believe

1017 sense is enough right?

[fierce light]

Depends on you

[short meadow]

I got 1.30min on paragon 1

No idea how strong is peragon 2

[fierce light]

Then I'd say you can clear Paragon 2

Since someone who finished it in 1:33 last time did this one

[short meadow]

Then It's fine

Hydrofire is still good

[fierce light]

Yeah

[subtle bramble]

Sad 😭 I hate omnius rock sm let alone eerie

[quaint girder]

How do I play Suffer No Demon?

[limpid pecan]

https://www.douyin.com/video/7418756772942335284?modeFrom=

[quaint girder]

Rip looks painful, but how do i access the gamemode? One my my event quest say i have to play one

durr i found it im good

[short meadow]

Holy Cooking Boss

[fierce light]

Wow they got creative

[quaint girder]

spin the wheel lol

[static holly]

fucking stupid stone monster

it's kill me so many time lul

finish paragon 2 with 10s left with 1010 sense

not so bad 😦

eerie omninus fire feel harder than eerie omnius rock

lul

[bronze wharf]

the crab is rolling XD

[fierce light]

Didn't think we were getting double bosses in Yama's this soon

Granted Stone Monster takes forever to start attacking

[static holly]

yeah, but it's just attack at the right timing :3

[limpid pecan]

he usually dies before he attacks XD

[fierce light]

Yeah feels more like a measure to keep you from bursting Rock down as he's spawning.

[quaint girder]

Jesus

60 runs of Suffer No Demon to complete the Elite Monsters quest

well at least all my Fatigue will be gone

[static holly]

well if you strong enough :3

[grand cypress]

i cant even find a match for it 😐

[fierce light]

So about an hour of it, when you account for loading screens.

It doesn't care about your sense, so as long as you have any decent element build, you can clear it pretty fast solo.

[grand cypress]

i dont have the full thunder build yet, im still needing thundder counter... should i try it solo with matari or wuchen

[quaint girder]

you can solo it, its pretty easy

[quaint girder]

Should be easy with Wuchen for sure

[fierce light]

Wuchen, Matari is just bad atm aside from some niche burn builds.

[grand cypress]

is he good? i unlocked him for showdown bc someone said i should but havent used him, ive been soloing matari up to where im stuck on hard rn

[grand cypress]

aw dang

[static holly]

wuchen have best defuse

so it's fine

[quaint girder]

Wuchen is one of the strongest heroes in Showdown currently

[quaint girder]

I run an Abyssal Aura build, its fun, but I hate the hitbox bug that gimps my DPS

[grand cypress]

currently what im using

[static holly]

you dont have fire

[fierce light]

Wuchen has __ __

• the strongest ultimate in Showdown right now.
• the strongest martial skill.
• among the best AoE.
• a really reliable Defuse.
• flexibility to work on any build (although he's iffy with HydroFlare).
• the highest DPS kit.

[grand cypress]

currently i only have matari at lvl 20, wuchen is at lvl 12 now so im missing out on alot with him

[static holly]

you dont have defuse flaming blade nad defuse raging flame?

[grand cypress]

im still new, im only lvl 52 and ive literally just soloed through it not havin a trio

[static holly]

i solo most of the time tbh :3

[fierce light]

I wouldn't recommend equipping Thunderpull without Thunder Counter, even if you have Thunderproof.

[static holly]

i am using a funny thunder scorch build with 6 thunder wielding because i a windfall for divine thunder lul :3

[grand cypress]

oh ive kinda destroyed and used all my other soujades uping this build and chnaging the attributes

[static holly]

well thunder counter can easily farm

[grand cypress]

what does thuinder weilding do exactly?

[fierce light]

You can re-equip it later

[static holly]

with the new event

so it's fine

[grand cypress]

im saying i dont have another soujade atm to use in its place

[fierce light]

But generally the builds listed under player's favorites and the ones used at the top of the leaderboards are reliably good.

[static holly]

more thudner wielding = more divine thunder dmg

[fierce light]

You can use an Attack Souljade II in its place with Thunder-Wielding

[grand cypress]

ooooo i did not know that i need to start using my essence

[static holly]

you'll get a build up thunder much much slower

with 6 thunder

0 thunder with thunderpull

you'll get zap a lot

it's good with thudner scorch build :3

but thunder scorch build need so many resource

so unless you are lucky

[grand cypress]

i do get zapped alot as of rn, its usually what kills me... it killed me in my yamas abyss run\

[static holly]

dont use it

[fierce light]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1266668634609025076/1285614477416468570/g8kurY7.png?ex=66f6c6c8&is=66f57548&hm=dbabdd07e93c41e46a995c32c9290ee299126952df384fa8f229861ce4f9d6dc&

[grand cypress]

HOLY

[static holly]

yeah

that a lot :3

[grand cypress]

ya imma hold off on that

i already feel like im not doing enough dps on these hard levels as it is

[fierce light]

Don't start doing that till you've settled on a build

[static holly]

@fierce light do you think thunder scorch build with 6 thunder wielding is fine :3 or just go with 0 :3

[fierce light]

Ideally one that's already been established since they're generally BiS

[static holly]

well you just need higher sense lv first

start your build later

just spam the event

[grand cypress]

so ok you saying that... is it a bad idea if i want to run stormstride instead of draco slide and be full lighting?

[static holly]

it's easy and fast

[fierce light]

You want less, that table doesn't account for accumulation on yourself, that formula hasn't been deciphered.

[grand cypress]

it gives matched sense soujades?

[static holly]

plus 3 lv

[fierce light]

The challenge drops up to max level drops

[river canopy]

Matari is hard-mode ... I also had started on her and played exclusievely Matari until I hit a wall. Then I tried others like Viper, Kurumi, Yueshan, Yoto, Tianhai and was impressed how comparatively easy they are ... Wuchen is still missing on my list, but I do recommend to try others out. And if you have some alchemical crystals left, you can quickly level them to at least 12 (to get defuse) ...

[fierce light]

Dagger unfortunately has really bad DPS and awkward hit boxes that make Matari perform worse generally.

[grand cypress]

ya i legit only play matari in this game, even in heralds trial i only play her

i also just got my wuchen to 12 a little bit ago and my yotohime is 13

my bad

no yoto

viper

[fierce light]

She's only good in cases where her Souljade build can carry her, like Burn builds, but even then, it takes more effort.

[grand cypress]

i see

okok ill swap my souljades over to wuchen and give him a go

brb im gonna try the event thing

[static holly]

@fierce light if i have like 150 divine thunder damage, is it worth to mix thunder scorch with 6 thunder-wield :3

tbh matari defuse fell really weird to use

[river canopy]

well, there are some strange effects, maybe my playstule is just weird, but I got stuck at Yama Empyreal (with that Ice Thingy) and funnily beat it only on Matari ... flying dagger (dreadful wail) ftw ...

[static holly]

so i dont like burn build on her :3

[peak finch]

What is the base damage of scorching? And how much did it increase this season?
Also flaming blade, raging flame and ember what are their base damage now and how much did it decrease from last season?

[static holly]

a lot tbh :3

[fierce light]

Not really, Thunder Scorch wants to dodge cancel their Thunder Counters, while Thunder build wants to carry them out.

[static holly]

well you parry 4 and hit 1 scorching hit

but tbh

i think 0 thunder is much much stronger

i just like zap zap zap the enemy too :3

[fierce light]

25% (per level, maxed at 12) of your Attack per tick for 18 seconds.
It was increased from 11% of your Attack.

[static holly]

that per lv right

try to get the last scorching for 12

but no luck for me

😦

got windfall instead

lul

[peak finch]

They increased it 14%, that's more than double, very nice

[static holly]

does 2 scorching lv 3 in 1 souljade stack?

[fierce light]

So [Scorching] +12 does 300% of your Attack per tick. For a total of 5400%.
Meanwhile, Thunder Counter does 329% of your Attack per Counter. For a total of 1316%.

[fierce light]

Yeah

[static holly]

@fierce light thunder counter doest work with divine damage?

i mean thunder divine

[fierce light]

It does

Just comparing the base damage

[peak finch]

Sorry i didn't understand what thunder counter doing

Do you mean the burn damage from potential when triggering element?

[fierce light]

Oh wait, sorry that's the base at 0 Thunder-Wielding, fixed it

[grand cypress]

wait wuchen is kinda fire

[fierce light]

Burn Damage from Scorching

[static holly]

so if we have 150% thunder divine dmg

[grand cypress]

better for now?

[peak finch]

So why they put ice wielding in thunder - draco build

[static holly]

the total damage is like 3xxx dmg

[peak finch]

What about the burn jades? Why are they so poor even with multiple windfalls?

[static holly]

burn souljade still fine

it just not's strongest anymore

[fierce light]

Thunder Counter w/ 150% Divine Thunder DMG = 3290%
Still less than a single [Scorching] +12, nearly half the amount.

Even at 360%, the optimal max, it would equal 6053.6%, which is slightly above a [Scorching] +12. But ideally you'd land two [Scorching] +12's per Thunder Counter.

[static holly]

i only have 9 scorching for now

but yeah i think i'll swap to 0 thunder wielding

[fierce light]

[Scorching] +9 = 4050%

[grand cypress]

is wuchens defuse just a fancy way of blocking for that special attack??

also how do you guys know what your % on stuff is?

[fierce light]

Yeah it's a 3rd option of avoiding damage, besides Dodging and Parrying. It deals bonus damage to Aegis as well.

[fierce light]

In the preparation tab, there's a button on the top-right that shows all your stats.

[grand cypress]

ooo sickk ty

[round glacier]

So does sorching work at least with poison and red potential?

[fierce light]

Yeah, each [Scorching] +3 is roughly equal to an extra Counterstrike's worth of damage.

[grand cypress]

wow thats sooooooo butttttt

[fierce light]

I wouldn't worry about that till you get all the right jades tbh

[timid stirrup]

remind what vipers poison mod build looks like

nvm i found it

[grand cypress]

you willing to help me out with the second challenge of suffer no demon? im gettin hit too hard at the end by everything

[quaint girder]

I can help if you're around and on NA server

Does Stamina Strike Ice Wielding exist anymore? Regular Stamina Strike says incompatible, but I can't find it in the Narakapedia either

[fierce light]

I can't get on atm

[peak finch]

they so weak compared to previous season

I mean burn jades, just replied to wrong message

what is their current base damage compared to the previous season?

[fierce light]

They're still the same

Just Blazing Flame got nerfed so the numbers you see are lower even though they're higher from Water and Fire Raged.

[subtle bramble]

Do we know what the % chance is to yield a rare attribute?

Used up all my souljade fragments rn and no rare in sight

[round glacier]

Gotten 2 moderate and 1 windfall today on 3 seperate jades

About 100 recasts

[warped falcon]

wow congrats 😁

I just need one more +3 scorching on my build to complete it

[twin ledge]

It’s random

I’ve recasting my old Draco around 1k times and not even joking or being sarcastic and not a single time rare appeared so I refarmed a new Draco then it gave me scorch in 23 recast

[subtle bramble]

Truly random then oof

Oh well time to farm for materials again xD

[twin ledge]

But should be able to get a rare if u keep recasting the same stat like 100 times from what I seen just spam recast and seems game gives u it

[dusk plover]

Is it just me or these rewards each week are getting worse when it comes to dropping purple and gold souljades at 150% on enigma? @fierce light

[fierce light]

Idk, they were alright for me.

[dusk plover]

I haven’t had a game (gold key) that’s dropped me more than 2 non blue jades and I’m at 450 fatigue now

That ain’t normal

[flat pier]

finally finished peak poison xD

lol this was fun the thing rolling around

@limpid pecan i did it!! 😄 😄 ❤️

[fierce light]

Damn sound luckier than me

[fierce light]

That looks scary to fight in Yama's. Strong suspicion it'll be whatever is after Paragon 5

[flat pier]

i think it will be eerie bough at paragon 5

wait, there's more after paragon 5?

[fierce light]

They're going to have to skip a boss or two if he is

1. Scorch
2. Rock
3. Matron
4. Aureate
5. Void/Beast
6. Korvine
7. Bough

[flat pier]

if matron is at paragon 4...

i don't think i'll even get to 5

FML

[dusk plover]

How is that luckier? I’ve already got all my build jades to 1030. I don’t need blues I need purples and golds to get souljade fragments 😭

[flat pier]

i think they skipped rock... either that or they put rock and matron in paragon 3 together

because paragon 3 is full of ice oments

omens*

[dusk plover]

Every game one of my games I would get all blues than at most 2 non rare jades

[fierce light]

I at most get the front page full of non-rares, but it's still a lot of rares

[fierce light]

Huh? Paragon 2 is Rock.

[flat pier]

ahh my bad.. so paragon 3 matron does make sense

4 is definitely aureate

with thunder omens

5 is not showing anything yet.. so i guess you're right, there will be more than paragon 5

maybe a mid-season patch and sense lvl bump like last season o.0

[fierce light]

I hope it's a new rank

Like unmatched Asura or whatever it's called for PvP

[dusk plover]

I’m needing that front page of non rares wtf 😭

[fierce light]

That was only at 150% tho

[near echo]

What is the recommended wielding for each character? Like, I was told that a poison set is good for Matari, I don't know if that's true. Or is there no specific recommendation, it depends on each person's gameplay? I made my Wuchen with ice wielding, is it good?

[cloud river]

what is your best time on the new gamemode, the 1010 sense one, everyone?

[hidden creek]

any wieding has a reason to be there, and that reason depends on the build that you're running, not the character

[hidden creek]

but why though? why do you care about the ''best time'' for an easy newbie friendly farming map?

[near echo]

Hm understood, thanks

[cloud river]

idk it seems fun to try to get a good time?

[fluid berry]

does anyone have like a newbie guide for showdown? i see a lot of things about "_ is good" "the _ build does that much better" but I want to know the why. either like normal showdown or nirritis, both would be useful. i still pick the first essence entirely at random every run of nirriti. I have no idea what works well with what or why.

id prefer it not just be like 85% numbers, but ill take what i can get if thats all there is

[hearty rivet]

Is it possible to kill 2nd phase rock in one go?

[fierce light]

First tries lol. Ended up dying more each run 🤣

[hearty rivet]

Ugh, finally. 5+ minutes, but kill, so my 2nd least favorite boss this one 😭

[fierce light]

When it comes to Wielding, it's determined by 3 things:

1. Are you going an Elemental build or a Burn build (only viable main damage sources atm)?
2. If Elemental, then you want the matching Element-Wielding.
3. If Burn, then you want Thunder or Ice.

How effective an Elemental set is on a Hero depends on how well they synergize with it. This is mostly determined by the -Wielding Souljades they can use, the base DPS of their weapon's attacks and how clunky their attacks are.

For Matari for example, she synergizes really well with the Cyan Fang Souljade, it's currently her highest DPS option at the moment. However, cause her base DPS is really low, she builds up Thundershock really slow in the Thunder build, making it not so good on her. So that leaves Ice and Poison. Poison is pretty much powercreeping Ice at the moment, so that's what people recommend.

[fierce light]

For Nirriti, Thunder Essence is generally the best unless you're going for a Ranged build, then probably want Poison Essence. Ranged builds are only advised for Heroes with a Cannon as well since other Ranged Weapons are pretty lacking at the moment.

For newer players, outside of Nirriti's Ruins, I'd say you should avoid Ice builds since Poison just beats it in sheer damage output (only advantage it has, is it's slightly faster activation rate). Poison builds also require minimum investment to do high damage as well so you can't go wrong making one. The 2nd part of the limited stages will be out <t:1727913600:R> and it drops everything you'd need from the Poison set.

[near echo]

I didn't know that thanks for the help

[grand cypress]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO

finally got counter

OOOO I DIDNT KNOW IT WAS GONNA HIT IT AT THE MONSTERS

i thought it was jsut gonna make it not hit me

[indigo scarab]

Is DMG to boss better than Attack?

[twin ledge]

On what

[indigo scarab]

I wanna say in general for damage output. At the moment i have matari w thunderbolt awakening build w tundra nd sub zero

[twin ledge]

Attack is better

A lot of builds scale off attack think atm only poison really helps with dmg to boss but the rest attack will make u do way more

Might be wrong but from why I use attack works better

[indigo scarab]

Okay thank you!

[hexed vapor]

Any tips for paragon 1? I can't beat this... thunder/poison build. Nothing works for me. Maybe i'm just really bad((.

[fierce light]

DMG to Boss > Attack; for non-Elemental DMG when going against bosses since it's often the only DMG Bonus source.

Attack > DMG to Boss; everything that doesn't meet the above criteria.

[twin ledge]

Oh he said bolt ah nvm

Didn’t see they said bolt

[fierce light]

Equipping the Armor Guard Potential can help, but it can also leave you one shot if you Burn for too long.

[hushed rock]

i have seen these but which build do you use for which hero? im always confused on that

[drifting lance]

🎉 | Be4rstr1ker leveled up!

[indigo scarab]

Thank you

[hearty rivet]

👀 cube was kind

[lucid ore]

Is this.. just salvage?

[fierce light]

Yeah probably

You can think of Scorching on a non-Burn build as +100% Counterstrike damage.

[lucid ore]

Only ever roll lke 2 windfall I think

and like 10 scorching / moderation

[fierce light]

Sounds like it wants you to make a Thunder Scorch build

[lucid ore]

lol

Time to save resources for next season.. this season doom

[fierce light]

I should probably do that, but I wanna get my fourth Scorching first

[lucid ore]

What if they improve scorching rare into:
Counter: deal elemental damage base on your main elemental damage.
So it can do burns, poisons, ice

[fierce light]

That would be a nerf for Burn builds (since it's not an element), but definitely a buff for other builds, especially Thunder build.

[flat pier]

@fierce light chan, what builds do you use to clear thunder-wielding and ice wielding?

and also do those stages have different bosses?

[fierce light]

I didn't run into Omnious Aureate or Matron like I was expecting. I think the bosses are the same between them; Void/Beast, Rock & Bough.

[fierce light]

I ran Burn builds. Tried a poison build, but then it gave us Impassable so it was painful.

[flat pier]

yeah, also cyan fang and the omen where the mobs counter, don't really mix either XD at least for the mob clearing guy xD

[fierce light]

Yeah I could see that being an issue too. That love to Counter Tarka's Cyan Fang.

[ebon parrot]

question, if theres 2 rare on a jade, salvage would give u 2 shards?

alr thanks

[flat pier]

no

only 1

in situations like this, should i try to build an entirely new jade or just recast the scorching o.0?
i have very little shrouded jade and it's really not enough 😦

[short meadow]

Better try a new one i think...because its gonna take same crystal to get another rare <100

[flat pier]

ok meow

[short meadow]

Quak

[hard glade]

Recast rare on same jade as I see you have good stats.
If you got a better jade only then would recommend to start fresh.

[hard glade]

@fierce light how does a poison cannon potential look like?

[teal adder]

Is there any progression guide for new players? im at 736 sense level right now

[hard glade]

Check the Pins for old guide & more details..
The Making of new guide is in progress by DarkZero.

[peak finch]

I think they got nerfed too

[timid stirrup]

Sense can b raised pretty quickly rn with the new event and build a Thunder build at the same time

A poison build will b built next week when 2nd chapter opens

Who else can a poison mod build go on other than viper?

[fathom bobcat]

Anybody? Wuchen is good, for example.

[hidden creek]

poison mod

just viper tbh

[fathom bobcat]

Ah, mod

ye, only Viper

[timid stirrup]

Damn I was hoping tarka would b ok. Or have a version of it.

[fierce light]

Oh i could've sworn it gave one per rare, weird.

[flat pier]

i swear i only got one though.. but is it like a random kind of thingy?

killing 120 elites in new event is really annoying

[hidden creek]

hmm no

[fierce light]

Tarka to an extent. Fireball + 3 Petal Fall Flurries should proc Poison Blast on a boss. Should help to keep the debuff active.

[hidden creek]

it should be 1 per 1 rare attribute

[flat pier]

i am doing it for the shrouded jade without fatigue and i am about to fall asleep

[verbal axle]

Does someone know how much % health/armor healing formula recovers on counter?

[fierce light]

Wuchen is probably the worst for it, you don't want to spam his ability and generally would have worse DPS trying to use it.

[timid stirrup]

Nice. But to what extent

How much less effective would it be

Ah

[fierce light]

If the Fireball and Arcane Thunder hit a small mob, it should proc Poison Blast instantly. Also in his Ultimate it would be really good cause of Arcane Thunder spam.

[timid stirrup]

Didn't see the edit part

I'm still far from a mod build as I only have 25% but it's good knowledge 2 b aware of

[fierce light]

Yeah if you get 50%, it lines its cooldown just right with the debuff. Above that helps with mobbing.

[timid stirrup]

So ur telling me I have hope... lol

[hard glade]

For poison cannon build which potential you recommend?

[fierce light]

The one with two in the Blue Path. That's not for Thunderbolts.

[static holly]

anyone want to do enigma peak :3 cant find a party anywhere 😦

[hybrid coyote]

Ive tried getting into this mode but I find it so confusing, is there a guide anywhere

[fierce light]

There's a website in the pins, but it's a bit outdated (info mostly from last season).

[hybrid coyote]

Thank youuu ^^

[fierce light]

For now you'd probably want to grind Suffer No Demon to max Sense Level while also getting some pretty good Souljades and other materials.

[hybrid coyote]

Do I grind the challenge one

[fierce light]

Yeah, when you've reached the cap for the normal one

[hybrid coyote]

Sorry, what do you mean by the cap for the normal one

[fierce light]

They both have a different max sense level they can drop, it'll list it right under where you select the mission.

[hybrid coyote]

Tyy

[flint geyser]

Does my potential plan work in Nirriti's Ruin? I assume not

[fierce light]

No. It has an isolated progression system, aside from Hero Level.

[hybrid coyote]

I was looking at some of the builds but im missing some of the souljades, how do I aquire those specific ones

[fierce light]

In the narakapedia, it'll tell you where a Souljade can drop if you haven't gotten it before. But for the most part most of the meta Souljades can drop from Nirriti's Ruins - Nightscream or from the Suffer No Demon mission.

[cyan grove]

Hello, what is the best way to farm purple shards so I can destruct them for materials please?

[fierce light]

Purple Shards? Flux Jade Shards?

[cyan grove]

purple jades*

sorry

[night tiger]

Start by grinding to max sense level, either in suffer no demon or nirritis ruins. In nirriti your jades dont matter at all, just make sure you get your characyer to lvl 12 to unlock the defuse move. For quick runs I used either tianhai (any build) or tarka (full ranged build)

[hybrid coyote]

Tyy!

[fierce light]

Enigma Domain seems to be the best bet, other than that, somewhere between Nirriti's Ruins and Suffer No Demon. They haven't really given much information on the drop rates, but Enigma Domain just gives the greatest amount of Souljades per Fatigue.

[cyan grove]

Alright, ty

[hybrid coyote]

Im currently grinding suffer no demon, is it always just a +2 increase to sense level per completion?

[cyan grove]

I got more than +2

[hybrid coyote]

The soul jades im dropping are just +2 each time so its taking a long time

[cyan grove]

That's pretty weird because I got like +5 or more

And after a few run, I often get +1/2

I started to play yesterday, I was 900 ish

now I'm 1010

[hybrid coyote]

I started today but I started at 700

[cyan grove]

I'm getting +4 rn

[fierce light]

Yeah it's going to be a long grind, but it's consistent.

[hybrid coyote]

Damn, ill keep at it then, ty

[cyan grove]

Ok, I managed to get all the jades for the hydroflare build

can someone explain to me how it works like I'm 5 please?

(I'm on Viper), I don't know if I can use it on Wuchen

[fluid berry]

oh wait, can i not do the limited time thing solo? 😦

[hidden creek]

suffer no demon, i dont see the solo/trios toggle

[hidden creek]

uncheck fill party

[fluid berry]

oh thanks

[hidden creek]

attack to build up raging flame
defuse to get the dmg buff from solidification/aegis break and for your next attack to cause burn (raging flame and flaming blade)
attack to apply burn onto target
dash to summon a wave which apply soaked onto target (draco stride)
burn + soaked = hydroflare

when hydroflare triggered, incineration give u dmg boost while also burning urself

u got burned = build up ember, ember full = next attack also cause burn

How do the spear attacks works in buried giant? Last time i tried to use it and flew towards the mask and fell to my death and seemed like nothing happened lol

[hidden creek]

stage known bug

try to aim it directly at the eye in the middle of a face

and don't input anything else while doing it, wait till the whole animation finished and you have fallen down to the platform, only then you start moving

[high fractal]

Ok thanks! I'll try that.

Just tried and still no luck...

Any strategy to beat it quickly i hate this stage 😂

[hidden creek]

still fall to your death and nothing happens?

[high fractal]

Yeah

I'm supposed to use the right click attack right?

[hidden creek]

no

[high fractal]

Ohhh

[hidden creek]

just aim, left click

[high fractal]

That might be whats causing the bug tbf

[hidden creek]

lol

[high fractal]

Just clicking the wrong attack button

[hidden creek]

😂

[high fractal]

Im only at 800 sense and struggling hard mode

The korvine boss (no mount) took me ages cause she refuses to blue attack

[fierce light]

For one, you can use it on Wuchen, but you'll have to play him a bit weirdly.

To explain the Hydroflare build like you're 5:

1. First, you use your fire tricks to make the bad guys feel hot and burny (Defuse Flaming Blade & Defuse Raging Flame).
2. Then, you do a special dodge move that splashes water on them (Draco Stride). This makes them wet and super burny at the same time!
3. When you do this, all the burning happens super fast, like WHOOSH (Hydroflare)!
4. Your magic clothes then make you feel a little hot too, but that's okay (Incineration).
5. When you feel hot enough, you can make the bad guys even more burny (Ember)!
6. You have a special shield (Copper Ward) that makes you feel a bit weaker, but it actually helps you use your fire powers better and faster.
   Thanks to Claude.ai

[cyan grove]

Alright, thank you guys I feel like I'm not using it correctly

[cyan grove]

Thank you!!

Here is the build I’m currently using

[fierce light]

Yeah that's the Standard Hydroflare build.

[cyan grove]

I don't see huge damages, maybe it's because I'm trying on Nightscream - Autumn Plains Turmoil?

[fierce light]

Just make sure you have Blazing Flame equipped on your Potential Tree, that's the most important. Second most important is Water and Fire Raged, but you have to be close to max Potential Level to get both.

Sadly Hydroflare DMG doesn't show any damage numbers. So you'll just have to see it through the boss's Health Bar. Autumn Plains Turmoil is probably the best boss fight for that build (it was released at the same time the Souljades were).

[fierce light]

Here's one of my older videos of it in action there: https://youtu.be/ongULx2bmno

[cyan grove]

Ok, I'm absolutely, extremly FAR from this

[fluid berry]

fighting omnius beast while locked on to the tail is going to make me develop motiuon sickness stg

[fierce light]

That's one boss I definitely wouldn't recommend locking on to lol

[grand cypress]

good roll?

[hidden creek]

in what context...

24% divine thunder dmg is just 80% of the max value (30%) so it's egh anyway

[grand cypress]

i only have that 24% for it

[grand cypress]

lets goooo im on matari yamas leaderboard top 50

[heavy gulch]

You’re the best We appreciate you!

[timid stirrup]

where can i ask chamber questions?

[fierce light]

Probably in #❓┃help

[timid stirrup]

thanx i forgot that channel is there

[amber terrace]

@fierce light i wanna ask should i use 0,9% atk or 3% HP is better?

on thunder scorching

[fierce light]

Are you using Copper Ward?

[amber terrace]

no

[fierce light]

Then you'd want the Health.

[amber terrace]

k

[fierce light]

+0.81% extra Burn DMG (3% Health) vs +0.46% extra DMG (0.9% Attack).

Assuming you're also using Incineration

[flint geyser]

Is 40 potential points the maximum?

[lucid ore]

lv.40 is the max but it's 48 points total

[lucid ore]

I asked my gemini AI

not quite what I thought

[fierce light]

Lol yeah I typed in a description and had it convert it 💀

[fierce light]

You get 39 points from your potential level, 9 from the seasonal challenges.

[lucid ore]

@fierce light Is it possible to complete enigma peak with poison for ice and thunder one?

[fierce light]

Should be yeah, main issue really is if you get the Impassable omen imo

Makes it take way too long to farm, unless you have a burn build

[lucid ore]

we barely beat the poison one with 30 secs left on the clock

[timid stirrup]

what elements need to b used on each peak? i've only been able to kill 5 in poison/thunder and 3 in ice

[lucid ore]

I'm assuming poison for poison, and ice for ice etc since you get a buffs that accumulate the specific element faster

[timid stirrup]

thanx. i was thinking that also just wanted clarification

[woeful monolith]

It doesnt completely matter, its just the omens.

[lucid ore]

Anyone got tips for Viper Ning on Paragon 2 yama?

[ionic niche]

Is this possible to change the weapon of any character?

[restive python]

What’s the best way to attack as Yoto hime? Do I charge earth shaker vs mobs and just spam one sec blue charges vs boss?

[fathom bobcat]

Sad, but no.

[zenith swallow]

firsttime i got rare drop

[fathom bobcat]

[fierce light]

#👾┃showdown message

If you have Aerial Rend equipped, you can just spam that as well.

[sullen pawn]

been seeing alot of ppl getting rares on jades dropped this past week, did they do something or are more ppl playing showdown now

[thorn narwhal]

i literally just picked 2 collections then stopped chosing any, is this just bugged

[drifting lance]

🎉 | Mave leveled up!

[fierce light]

In your match history, what you got?

[fierce light]

I think some players did come back for the new season.

[magic ridge]

I have it so you can get it

[thorn narwhal]

nirrits history isn't there for some reason, but i picked like element and burning i even avoided currency and secrets if they do be considered as a collection

maybe will just do a fully vanilla run

[fierce light]

Weird

[grand cypress]

last harddd, here we goo

[timid stirrup]

my first rare sub from a drop

[restive python]

What do you mean by uncharged bro?

Do I have to keep dodging to cancel out the blues?

[fierce light]

Just tap the corresponding attack button. You dodge cancel at the end yeah.

[restive python]

Oh ok Ty bro

[bright dust]

This might be a really stupid question, but since this is a standard thunder build, I should probably reimbue the ice element soul jades into lightning, no?

Question here, since it s absurdly easy to get the required ice jades via the event atm,
Do these jades drop in other elements too? Since other jades also seem to drop with random element...

I wouldn t be opposed to farming them as I:
A find it comfortable to get sense level and
B believe it could be cheaper than to use consumeables, of which I don t even have enough atm..

[drifting lance]

🎉 | agent0035 leveled up!
ℹ | Level up messages can be disabled for the guild with owo level disabletext

[spice canyon]

afaik Spring Call can drop other element, but Sub Zero and Ice Break is fixed element so you need to imbue them

[drifting lance]

🎉 | Nekonin leveled up!

[fierce light]

Souljades related to the effect of an element or the element itself (i.e. Thunder-Wielding: mentions Thundershock/Divine Thunder) will always drop on that element. So you'll have to use Essence to convert it to anything else.

[bright dust]

ah

ty so much!
I will try for spring call and get a bit of sense whilst at it.
I think I have enough for Both Ice break and sub zero seal. Just not for three.

Maybe I ll get some god drops on the way?

I just wanted to make sure that it s correct for them to be converted to elemnt lightning?
It would make the most sense to me.

Furthermore, Is there a variation where Thunder standard uses Cyan Fang or Thunder heal?
What attributes would be exceptionally cool on these two?

[fierce light]

Yeah if you're using that build, you want them all Thunder-Wielding. Divine Thunder DMG is it's primary damage source.

[fierce light]

You could use those in place of Thunderproof, but generally they don't increase the rate you generate Thundershock on yourself cause of their lower DPS than the Charged Attacks or speed from Thunderproof.

[bright dust]

That makes sense, but I find cyan especially to be insanely more coomfrtable to farm with.. like It just makes me immortal due to the constant AOE clear swipe that just flattens any small mobs.

[fierce light]

If you're on Viper or Matari it's a good DPS option

[bright dust]

could be cope, but to me it feels l ike it jus accellerates the runthrough by a lot whilst just coonstantly sapping hp or shield with every consecutive chained attack

[fierce light]

It works better for Poison or Ice than Thunder

Thunder is all about getting damage out as quickly as possible to charge Thunder Counter.

[tough spire]

I am trying to explain the new event to my friends but one of them is getting this despite finishing the stage. Does anyone know what this means, or how to fix it? Her account level is 27.

[steep patio]

How do you do the deal 6000 damage challenge

[hidden creek]

musket/cannon, ranged anima rings, headshot when target is down

[steep patio]

I’ve done 18000

[steep patio]

still didn’t get it

So headshots only?

While aegis is still up?

[fathom bobcat]

Headshot from Musket when enemy without aegis. With range anima rings, ofc.

[fierce light]

Spring's Call is related to Frostbite, so it's always Ice-Wielding

[bright dust]

I still wanted to roll a good one.
Managed neihter thunderproof, nor ice blast, sub zero seal or spring break.

This requires a specific build or could I just lob this into a standard ice deck?

[fierce light]

It's only really used in some Ice builds. You want Ice Break on Thunder build and neither on Poison/Burn.

[grand cypress]

oh? as soon as i get all the soujades for the player favorites they change

[fierce light]

More people had time to finish their new builds for the season. So they moved on from their old ones.

Better off seeing the builds used on the leaderboards tbh

[fierce light]

Yeah there's definitely going to be something after Paragon 5. They got a lot of bosses to cover.

[limpid pecan]

eerie bough doing that weird spin standing on legs

gonna be interesting

[twin ledge]

Don’t think it will be to hard tho cause it’s solo

[limpid pecan]

it will waste a ton of time tho

where u cant hit him

so probably need good rng so he doesnt do that attack

or does it just once

[twin ledge]

Boss prob be dead before it can do it

Well for some it will be

[fierce light]

Curious what the fastest times for Paragon 2 are

[twin ledge]

For Na?

[polar light]

I think in NA is 1 min and 9 sec

Last time I check

[fierce light]

Jesus

[twin ledge]

Think it’s 1:06

And it’s the same person for each character times pretty much same

[fierce light]

They skipping Rock's Ultimate somehow?

[twin ledge]

Pretty much only person that’s even trying there hardest tho

[polar light]

i got 1 min and 10 sec cuz i did a silly mistake at end

[twin ledge]

Wait think it is 1:09

[fierce light]

Man I need Scorching +12 bad

I have to do two procs to pass first phase.

[twin ledge]

Ok bro yea it’s def not possible to beat that if not running burn that’s so broken

I hope it’s not like that next season

[polar light]

yeah unlucky but still there is 80 days i think to grind maybe and get that thunder scorch

still too much time

[fierce light]

Yeah once i get it set up, i'm going to start stockpiling

Tired of being behind each season

[polar light]

wish u all the luck broo XD

[fierce light]

Granted Xbox Leaderboards aren't anywhere close to that speed.

[polar light]

i just was so lucky cuz last sesson i had to many scorchings

[twin ledge]

At least the elemental meter needs to go up same speed as it will with thunder wielding

[fierce light]

I'm hoping I get it this week

Going to do a bunch of recasts when I cap my fatigue

[twin ledge]

Wait why did my auto correct say speedrun thats so weird lol

[fierce light]

I think they were trying to avoid that cause it would make the elemental resistance on Thunder-Wielding pointless.

[twin ledge]

Btw u seen was able to get 2 minutes exactly for speedrun or did I say yet?

[fierce light]

Yeah you said iirc

[twin ledge]

Ah ok

Yea we could do it faster but it’s just what we are fighting those spears are so fcking cringe

Can’t see them

[fierce light]

Wish they gave them a parry instead of leaping a mile back

🤣

[twin ledge]

Wait isn’t it dodge what’s it called tho

[fierce light]

Not sure it has an iframe.

[twin ledge]

I think they need to reword it because they not dodging anything but air

@polar light ur right it’s 1:09 viper

[polar light]

Yeah XD the best timing until now on all servers

But on CN it’s 1 min and 1 sec lol

Like top 1 to 9

XD

[twin ledge]

There times gonna be way more crazy last stage

The build needs to be nerfed in my opinion

[polar light]

It will I think every season but for now it’s the meta

[twin ledge]

There has never been a meta that op tho

[polar light]

Each season their is a best build

[twin ledge]

That’s just broken and unbalanced

[polar light]

Yeah I know,but everyone is utilize it cuz the game allowed it

XD

[fierce light]

Yeah they did Poison dirty with this build coming out.

The fact that Scorching is an AoE too now is insane.

[polar light]

And if everyone had this build it will be challenging to all players to utilize it in yamas XD

And it will be balance after all

If all use it

[twin ledge]

That’s the issue not every can build that in 1 season

They could but won’t get the amount of rares

[fierce light]

Yeah the lack of hard pity on rares is a bit painful

[polar light]

Yeah I know XD

[twin ledge]

I’m just not gonna worry about Yama this season tbh

Cause it’s not fun in my opinion

[polar light]

I had a close friend is is lucky on getting rare attributes but not scorching lol

All windfalls

[fierce light]

Also just some builds not even being usable without having enough of a rare sucks too. Particularly for Moderation builds.

I think Windfall should be the only rare, and Scorching/Moderation be turned into Souljade equivalents.

[polar light]

Yeah but then grinding showdown will be useless to be honest

To only have a rare

[twin ledge]

Value recasting

So farming will still be useful

But that would force them to add more jades than what they do like a lot

[polar light]

I think bringing back the old recast and having 1 rare it will be good option too

[twin ledge]

That would trigger a lot of people if they brought it back

[fierce light]

Making Scorching & Moderation their own Souljades would improve a lot of things tbh.

• You could work on other builds instead of having to focus one an entire season.
• Easier to balance when it's a Souljade, rather than a range of values depending on multiple Attributes.
• They could introduce other rare Attributes that are purely for altering Attribute values rather than changing combat mechanics.

• For example: [Willful] - Increases DMG to Health by x%
• • [Sorcery] - Increases Elemental Accumulation Rate by x%

Oh God no old Recast. Even if Value Recast is painful, it was another level with that.
