really? what have they changed

fierce light
#

It says it'll give you a stack of Yushan Shadow or something like that

#

Not that it enables being able to defuse freeze

dusky cosmos
#

does divine thunder targeted towards you count as a triggered elemental burst for purposes of Elemental Lotus?

fierce light
#

It has to be triggered on an enemy

#

Oh you meant rework not reword. Gotcha.

#

Yeah it was nerfed pretty much. Was pretty niche before, but now even more so.

thorn narwhal
#

oh yeah, sadly it will be seen used even less now, if only they could change it to trigger spring's call that would be nice

amber terrace
#

that so OP

fierce light
#

You can run Reawakening without Defuse Thaw now

yay impassable twin miasma stuff!

woven ingot
#

I'm trying to figure if something could be worst than that speedrun. But. Nope.

hidden creek
#

screw this week speedrun then

woven ingot
#

Not sure who thought it was a good idea to put twins and impassable on miasma twirls. With poison capped before you did half the aegis of any elite. Knowing the elites are those mermaids who spend half of their time under the ground and the other half two shotting you.

quaint girder
#

Miasma Swirl, that's a fun one

hidden creek
#

i mean they love to see us suffer

analog aspen
#

did it three times and that has to be enough for this week

fierce light
#

What 3 times?

woven ingot
#

He's about the speedrun I think.

analog aspen
#

it's somehow really annoying that you cannot turn off the ranking shown for your heros

#

that's why I always do the speedrun on these 3

hearty rivet
fickle linden
#

remove jades from them

analog aspen
#

but then it will show other 3 no?

#

or remove them on all heros

woven ingot
#

Yep, you remove jades from all those you don't want.

hearty rivet
#

it'll show the 1st 3 with highest sense level

analog aspen
#

ok, I see the work around but thats still annoying xD

woven ingot
#

Yes that's why pretty much no one bothers with that.

fickle linden
#

yeah would be nice if we could pick 3 we want to show

woven ingot
#

Would be good if they left us choose who was shown there.

analog aspen
#

i know that noone cares about these ranks but seeing rank 400 on viper ning does not give me a good feeling and I dont want to play yama's with her

fierce light
#

Yeah I getcha

#

Wow this daylight savings pushed the update to ending after midnight.

thorn narwhal
#

already daylight saving again..)

hearty rivet
#

I have a feeling that this week will be one of those weeks.
(Peak + gold key+ potion)

thorn narwhal
#

i wonder if this event showdown related 🤔

fickle linden
#

could be PVP one too, wasn't there jade changes in patch notes?

woven ingot
#

One change on the new longsword one, leap something.

raw magnet
#

I like showdown events than others cause I want the treasure choice gift more. 🥰

#

Now I wait for the Justina showdown event.

fierce light
#

Hope there's something planned since there's no more floors for 90 days.

#

Like that they're rebalancing things though.

raw magnet
#

When is Justina coming ? April ?

#

I have to catch-up with the showdown news 😅

fickle linden
#

according to road map

June is nice.

thorn narwhal
#

not a single person in enigma despite week's reset Kurumi_SqueezeCheeks

hidden creek
#

dead game heheh

dusky cosmos
#

when doing nirritis is there a way to tell if you have collected the souljade or not once you've already chosen it? like an easy way to tell which are safe to discard?

fickle linden
#

it has book icon on right bottom side if you still need it for collection

#

but that's before you have chosen it

#

if that's what you mean

#

or do you mean like souljades as rewards from nirriti

#

or the cards in nirriti

hidden creek
#

he said ''choosen'' so prolly anima rings

dusky cosmos
#

yeah the anima rings

hidden creek
#

if you haven't collected level 1 of that ring there will be a book icon on it
if you haven't collected all levels of that ring there will be a book icon with upward arrows on it

dusky cosmos
#

yeah i know taht its just once i have them all its hard to remember which is important and which isnt

#

but nbd, y'all answered the question so thx

hidden creek
#

i mean you can just read the ring and see what it does

#

also take experience

#

to know if it's an useful ring or not

dusky cosmos
#

im just trying to improve the collection for the stat buffs, i dont care what they do at all for the purposes of the normal run

fierce light
hidden creek
#

well just collect them all

thorn narwhal
fierce light
#

Well even then, it's pretty rare. Since Enigma Topaz can be solo'd.

thorn narwhal
#

for gold keys specifically, which finding one in peak is even more rare only premades

steep patio
#

Does anyone have video of paragon 10 w time

#

Like 3min or less

woven ingot
#

Both will be hard to find a party.

  • Topaz can be solo'ed, so people aren't going to look for parties there. IF you're not strong enough to solo the whole thing, you can simply do the 3-bosses strat.
  • Peak is usually with gold keys. And is clearly harder. People will try to go with premade parties not to waste their keys and time.

I need a lot of jade frags, still not perfect builds yet

fierce light
#

Dunno if it's even worth using regular Rune Keys right now since Nirriti's Hard drops more Crystals and Fragments on average.

#

Aside from the 3 bosses strat

amber terrace
#

@fierce light i wanna ask

#

if defuse can block frostbite so use depth blast better or sub-zero seal?

fierce light
amber terrace
#

ok

quaint girder
#

I assume it's gonna either be a separate Souljade slot for weapon jades or it will be a baked in system where I fet to choose variants similar to potential

fierce light
#

Yeah sounds pretty fun

olive bay

is it possible that the later paragon levels include repeated bosses from earlier ones

did you already clear maticore nightscream in holoroth ? you can buy gold jade in showdown store if you do and pick ghastbloom

Oh I didn't know about that and no I have not beat it on nightscream

Only clearly it on hard

I could help you clear the nightscream buy im in SEA

bold storm
#

I'm just gonna sit in a qu for like 40 mins and hope i find a game

#

I don't know what I'm on but I'm sure it not sea

If I join on sea does my stuff transfer servers I happyly deal with 142 ping to clear this boss

Sorry my bad 242 lol

plain spire

you can come in sea i'll help you clear nightscream

bold storm
#

Y do I have to agreed to another user agreement

plain spire

thats normal when you jump server

What the difference between these things anyway never understood the point of these user agreements but with each 1 I see it makes me not wanna play a game

plain spire
#

pvp achievements and chamber i guess

bold storm
#

I really don't feel like accepting this agreement

plain spire
#

that;s just ingame agreement lol

bold storm

Yea but i don't even understand the point of these things

My head hurts and I'm bored of this

Paragon 11 is the same Mountain ghost then aureate and 2 elites with each that we already had?

No sure if that’s fun or not …

quaint girder
#

Are there any quests for Paragon 11m

#

Like in the Season Quest Menu

#

I'll probably only clear Paragon 5 if that's the last quest I need to do

I thought peragon 10 is max

buoyant notch
#

Guys idk if I made my build wrong but on kurumi it feels like poison build does more damage than ice build

#

am I crazy for saying that

#

More so considering moderation doesn’t feel like it does much on kurumi either

quaint girder
buoyant notch
fierce light
fierce light
#

It'll take 2 Soul Slashes to proc Elemental Burst on both Ice and Poison so that's identical.

buoyant notch
#

so ice is still better

#

I just remove moderation for something else

#

like windfall

fierce light
#

Yeah for heroes with weak abilities, 12 Windfall is better

buoyant notch
#

and wisdom

#

Time to go grind new jades

fierce light
# buoyant notch so ice is still better

This would be how max Ice compares to max Poison on Kurumi:

Ice

  • Souljades: Successive Ice Blast, Frozen Blast, Elemental Lotus, Ghastbloom, Sub-Zero Seal, & Tundra Might
  • Attributes: x4 Moderation, x8 Windfall, x6 Attack, x6 Ice Blast DMG
    Poison
  • Souljades: Noxious Blast, Pestilent Pool, Infectious Touch, Toxified Lotus, Ghastbloom, & Miasma Drive
  • Attributes: x4 Moderation, x6 Windfall, x6 Attack, x6 Poison Blast DMG, x2 Increase DMG to Boss

Rotation:

Soul Slash (until Elemental Burst)
Blink Strike + Aegis-Break (while Elemental Burst is on cooldown)
fierce light
#

Ignore the part that says Ziping Ying, that's supposed to be "Base Value of Maxed Attribute"

#

i wanted wind fall

you have low stats on those jades anyway, just reroll bad rares into max values

That's a lot of healing, don't think you'll need that much tbh

Divine Thunder no longer does damage and you don't have Incineration, so you have nothing to drain your health.

hidden creek
#

i think yes

woven ingot
#

I ll see vs yama this evening. Not sure when it comes from the boss. I think I saw something on the patch notes about it, but I don’t see how the game could differentiate a thunder triggered by your actions from one triggered by the boss.
In the patch notes there was something about manticore, matron and oreate and their accumulation. I forgot if it was about less accumulation or something else.

quaint girder
hearty rivet
#

Yeah it was about lowering the accumulation from their moves.

quaint girder
#

But you should still test because translation can be arse

woven ingot
#

Yes. And ice. As matron is there.

quaint girder
#

Also, I feel like it's a slight nerf to Thunderbuilds that want the accumulation lmao

woven ingot
#

Aureate not thundering you with one-two hits sounds good.
Same for Matron.

hearty rivet
#

I dunno, accumulating from Aureate or Manticore means you got slapped with his mace/hammer or spitted on and ouchie.

woven ingot
#

It’s partially a nerf to thunder builds who used the bosses against them i d bet yes.

woven ingot
#

Those want to get the free thunder accumulation.

hearty rivet
woven ingot
#

I remember NotToxic (I think) using the laser barrier on yama with aureate to charge his thunder meter

hearty rivet
#

oh no no I meant the boss' direct hits&stuff. Not getting turned crispy by the wires will be extra nice.

hidden creek
#

they're all the same

#

same effect of building your thundershock bar

#

there's only 1 thundershock bar, doesn't matters you increase it by your own or get hit by bosses's attack or electric wires

hearty rivet
fierce light
#

Yeah, they buffed that electric wire omen by making it decrease your attack by quite a bit. Wouldn't recommend doing it with that one.

hidden creek
#

pretty sure the divine thunder caused by any of them doesn't do any damages now

#

only stagger

quaint girder
#

I thought I was a genius

hidden creek
#

well it was a legit tactic

#

that's why they nerfed it lol

hearty rivet
#

JustNaes said that it will be a nerf to thunder builds that if you get hit by a boss you accumulate less, if I did not misunderstand what they meant. I just reflected to that by saying that it's not ideal to accumulate by getting hit by boss because it hurts aside from accumulation and thunder stuff.

hidden creek
#

yeah what he said doesn't make any sense

#

cuz you never want to get hit by the boss for the purpose of charging your thundershock bar anyway

#

like on low stages you 1 shot the bosses, high stages they 1 shot you so

#

there's no reason to

quaint girder
fierce light
#

If you have Untouchable Talent, you'll lose Attack for being hit.

quaint girder
#

basically before the attack damage debuff and if you weren't using untouchable talent

hidden creek
#

what

#

i'm lost

fierce light
#

I don't think that was ever used cause Aureate has some high knockback

hearty rivet
#

tschorch doesn't use untouchable, I think he meant that. But that entry in the patch note was about bosses not the wire omen. So that omen may still be doing the same accumulation if someone wants to play with the basic version.

fierce light
#

There's still the issue of the knockback, so you wouldn't be able to get both Scorching's off

hidden creek
#

ah fk it i'm building this

fierce light
#

It looks good

hidden creek
#

with recent changes it's such a misopportunity for not trying this one

analog aspen
#

For the first minute I thought it's going to be freebie and suddenly another boss slaps my ass from behind

woven ingot
#

Glad that at least someone feels like me. Everyone was saying "Yama 11 is sooo easy and fun". Logged in it happy and relaxed. Nearly one hour after I'm finally done with it.
Just because double bosses. They are both permanently active, hitting you one after the other and they are both so big that most of the time you have no idea what the second is doing. With that permanent aggression I'm supposed to perma defuse until reaching the 9 min timer? ^^'
Yama 10 with Zip, 3 tries. With Yueshan 2 tries. Yama 11 with Zip one hour. Yeah, so easy right ^^' Double boss is always such a great game experience for me.

river stratus
woven ingot
#

I know the easy answer is take Yueshan and gank them when they are both in the arena, but wanted to do it "the normal way".

woven ingot
fierce light
#

Pretty much if you have the damage to solo Paragon 10, you should be able to clear Paragon 11.

#

But yeah while there's 2 bosses it may be tough for a bit

woven ingot
#

Yeah that's the point. Rought for a bit ^^'

#

Rest of the fight was nice. 4 bosses have interesting and challenging moves. But the moment you have two together it's a terrible experience for me.

#

Stuck at par 3 for ages lol

#

The difficulty to solo would become a lot higher than trios at that point.

analog aspen
#

solo is already a lot harder then trios I think

#

as soon as there is more than one boss I prefer trio

#

the only downside are counter timers because of weird ping delays

fierce light
#

Yeah Trios technically is the easiest just from enemies having 83% Health relative to each player (250% of Health from Solos total).

#

Can split them up, but the faster times will want them together which can be harder on trios.

is chapter 5 autumn plains turmoil the only/best option to farm defuse solidification?

when comparing nirriti and morus isle nightscream

#

this new freezing animation really needs some getting used to x.x

woven ingot
#

I found the solution to that!
Doing ... like before, ignore the whole thing and happens what happens 😂
But, yes, it's a bit weird. The blue crystal appears, 1 sec after there is a ray of light between the crystal and you, and that's the moment you want to defuse.

hearty rivet
woven ingot
#

That can work too!

#

Plus being Yueshan for Peak, I'll rarely be frozen, except before the first boss.

#

After more than 3 months, and 4 fails on that one, game decided I suffered enough for now and gave me that last WF.
... 3 months ...
Now just left to max all the little 3.9 and 29.6 stats.

fickle linden

i just defused when the crystal was near full and it worked everytime (thanks to trio delay??)

woven ingot
fickle linden
#

it has a bar, it fills slowly

#

"slowly"

#

or rather, the crystal fills up

woven ingot

It will need some training to get used to I guess. Plus it may not be easy to see during a boss fight.

easier to train when mobbing than bossing i'd guess 😅

That would be a great change. Being face slapped every time you equip your ranged doesn't feel great.
plus if you shoot, there is an animation for recharging that won't let you swap back to your main weapon. You think you're good you swiched back, and get hit.

Since yueshans ult is powerful

Tianhai happens to be very strong in Ult form. Problem is that the rest isn't. No offensive skill, or something like Wiping to compensate.

tacit nest
#

What do you mean?

fierce light
#

Yeah his Ultimate is strong, it's just he lacks a way to charge it quickly like Yueshan. His Skill does provide a stronger Counterstrike, if you manage to parry with it, but other than that it's purely defensive.

woven ingot
#

He also have an advantage over Yueshan, Tianhai's Ult ignores Manti's Iron Skin. And that's a true pleasure to hit it during Irong Skin like it was nothing.

I see, if you swap draco stride for ghastbloom however it becomes the thunder lotus build right? And there you would want to go for the thunder dmg on the jades and thunder-wielding

tacit nest
#

Two tanks seems like a pretty cool combo

hidden creek
#

those 2 build functions differently

#

on draco build your main dmg source is hydroflare, which comes from scorching, which comes from countering

amber terrace
hidden creek
#

so you prio HP because of the blazing flame potential (lose all hp% increase but convert them into burn dmg)

tacit nest
hidden creek
#

and you don't want thunder wielding because 1: it lower the accumulation rate of your thundershock bar and 2: you don't deal damages with your divine thunder counter

fickle linden
#

make tianhai F to charge from succesfull counter or something

analog aspen

but on the thunder lotus build your main dmg source is divine thunder counter so ofc you want thunder wielding

does anyone need to do Doom Speedrun this week?

dusky cosmos
#

is a divine thunder build with scorching any good? obviously most people dont seem to run it but seems like it could still be good damage if ur proccing hydroflare another way

fierce light
#

It's not a terrible attribute to put on, but as long as your parrying more than once every 18s, you won't get the full use out of it.

dusky cosmos
#

what do you mean by the last part?

#

parrying more often is missed opportunities to proc divine thunder?

Edit: im guessing you mean that the burn would last 18s normally so it wouldnt be as good unless you hydroflare it off?

#

assume i'm running a valda meme build and that's how i plan to proc hydroflare

fierce light
dusky cosmos
#

ah yeah, but if i clear it with a soaked status it wouldn't be as bad of a waste

fierce light
#

Divine Thunder also has the highest scaling from Elemental DMG than other builds by quite a bit, so Windfall is more valuable for it.

hidden creek
dusky cosmos
#

ah, moderation* also decreases elemental burst cd, i didn't know that (wrong)

hidden creek
#

you lose dmg both way

dusky cosmos
hidden creek
#

what he meant is with windfall instead of scorching ur divine thunder will deal more damages

dusky cosmos
#

ah, right thx

fierce light
dusky cosmos
#

yeah sorry i got them confused, thanks

hidden creek
#

cuz only with it you could trigger 2 hydroflares from 1 time counter thundershock bar

fierce light
#

Thunder Scorch is so strong cause it can do 2 [Scorching]'s in one Thunder Counter.

dusky cosmos
#

i mean it's always necessary but... i'm interested in doing something that only valda can do even if it's not 100% best

hidden creek
#

not even 50%

dusky cosmos
fierce light
#

You don't want to cancel through your Thunder Counter on a Divine Thunder build.

#

They also have conflicting attributes, as Divine Thunder doesn't benefit from Health and Burn doesn't benefit from Divine Thunder DMG.

hidden creek
#

also you gonna need to imbue your soul jades with thunder which make it take longer to fill your thundershock bar

dusky cosmos
#

it could be like soak (3s) -> counter -> counter -> soak

dusky cosmos
hidden creek
#

''about the same'' you say

dusky cosmos
#

im not trying to say its the same, sorry

#

i should say, in the training room configs, it doesn't seem to let me show a big difference

hidden creek
#

did you tried 6x ice vs 6x thunder essence?

#

try and see for yourself

fierce light
#

Thunder Scorch works like this. You will only benefit from 3/4 of the Thunder Counters at the most, 2/4 most commonly.

dusky cosmos
#

yeah i did try the 6x each and basically one dragonstrike combo nearly filled the bar up for both

#

so i assume it's just the training room

dusky cosmos
#

mountain giant

hidden creek
#

🙂

#

i can do you a test clip rn

fierce light
#

Also have to keep in mind with the current Divine Thunder Lotus build, the damage from a single Thunder Counter is more than doubled due to Mighty Lotus Counter

dusky cosmos
#

basically the build i was thinking of trying is tabbies thunderscorch v2 but dropping dracostride and putting in either copper ward or blossom blast

fierce light
#

If you're not running Thunder Root on your potential, then you mine as well not bother with Blossom Blast.

dusky cosmos
#

then putting in divine thunder attributes on the jades where i can. i'm also just starting so i have very little rare attributes anywhere anyway. so while the divine thunder is a waste compared to optimal, i don't know what else i'd put in anyway

hidden creek
#

the thing is

dusky cosmos
hidden creek
#

if you want scorching dmg you go blazing flame and water & fire raged
if you want divine thunder dmg you go thunderoot

#

if you want fast proc for more counter you imbue ice
if you want high divine thunder dmg you go thunder

fierce light
# dusky cosmos how do you mean? is that basically the damage the lotus deals over its lifetime
  • a Thunder Counter (ball) does 350% of your Attack.
  • a Blossom Blast • Thunder Root does 560% of your Attack.
  • both scale from Divine Thunder DMG
  • loses 1/7th of its damage for every Thunder-Wielding value below +6.
  • a Blossom Blast does 417% of your Attack.
  • does not scale from Divine Thunder DMG, Poison Blast DMG, nor Ice Blast DMG.
  • does not care about your Element-Wielding value.
hidden creek
#

if you want more hydroflare you parry then dodge for 2x active
if you want high divine thunder dmg you parry all 4

dusky cosmos
#

yeah, im following now. i suppose my thought process is, would 12 scorching give me a net damage increase if i was a Divine Thunder build but still used hydroflare procs

#

i assume no one tries this cause other characters can't do it, and valda is trash so why bother

hidden creek
#

nah

#

we all thought about it

Such a build would be doing horizontal investment, which wouldn't be an increase.

when scorching was first buffed

Thunderbolt Anime Ring builds vs Element Anima Ring builds are a good example of why Horizontal Investment is a bad thing in Showdown.

Thunderbolt Anima Rings tend to give you more sources of damage, with very little buffs to the entirety of damage. Element Anima Rings all increase the damage of one thing and stack multiplicatively.

but the idea was quickly scraped

#

because anyone with experience could immediately realize that it's not good

#

scorching used to be super trash

#

on any builds

#

even on burn/hydroflare builds

#

when they buffs it people tried everything anything already

I can calc it right quick

i'd be interested in "how bad" it is, cause still seems like a bit of fun doing both divine thunder + thunderscorch in one kinda. Though i fully understand 20% of big number > 50% of small number, etc

hidden creek
#

i mean your idea is basically give up on some windfall (divine thunder dmg) to get some scorching (hydroflare dmg)

dusky cosmos
#

yeah, essentially

#

there's also an element of, right now my build has 0 windfall cause i'm just starting so i have an "extra mod" right now anyway

hidden creek
#

but the thing is to do so you gonna need to give up the proper setup and gameplay for hydroflare dmg, and if so this hydroflare dmg from scorching won't even be good

#

compare to just run windfall for divine thunder dmg

#

also it doesn't matters if you're running valda or not

dusky cosmos
#

the only real difference here from normal hydroflare setup tho is i would have to drop the 20% hydroflare dmg, but i'd gain a fair amount of attack nodes from the red tree so 🤷

#

i guess i'd swap health for the divine thunder damage in a maxxed setup

#

so what kind of gameplay you gonna do?

plucky wyvern
#

where cna i find soul jade quick?

#

because Nuritti take too much time

hidden creek
#

2x scorching proc each thundershock bar parry or 1x?

#

like when divine thunder comes you gonna parry all 4 or not?
