not being able to sort jades by name is some bs

steep patio

using dead eye\ controller is hard

fierce light
fierce light
steep patio
#

if you aim in its very hard to move towards the red circle

#

so dont aim in

fierce light
#

So it looks like our new base attack is 252, 20% higher than last season's.

steep patio
#

its pretty fun tho

fickle linden
#

i like how day 3 reward from the new event is ghastbloom

fierce light
#

Got the formulas down to calc the base dmg and stuff

lapis heron
#

guys any build recommend for new update? it seems my scorch build not working anymore

steep patio
#

#

already got windfall recasted on 1 new jade

lapis heron

steep patio
#

doing 50k damage with muskey is fun

fierce light
#

Can confirm Wuchen's Skill only activates Ice Spike when you first cast it.

flat pier
#

what do we do first?

#

sense level or curio?

fickle linden
flat pier
#

you have to farm again right?

steep patio
#

yes

#

nirriti

flat pier
#

so nirriti first as usual?

steep patio
#

sadly yes

flat pier
#

wait what's the rating?

steep patio
#

how good you souljade is

#

6500 is max

flat pier
#

oh no more sense lvl huh?

steep patio
#

nope

flat pier
#

oh then why nirriti, getting curio materials at tempered inferno no?

#

nvm

fickle linden
flat pier

sinful ocean
#

What is the new meta?

steep patio
#

#

hi @fickle linden @fierce light

#

whats the first jade i should swap with element surge?

#

got a pretty good elemental surge, slowly maxing the stats on it

fickle linden
#

i have no idea. dark will help you, i just do what dark tells me to ZipingYin_GiftFlowers

#

but sub-zero seal probably

#

idk what element surge even does

fierce light
#

Are they trolling with Hepta-Detach ??? 😭

#

20% Attack scaling... Wtf

fierce light
flat pier
cursive fable
#

does elemental surge stack with tundra might?

#

should i just disenchant this?

fierce light
# flat pier gugu got chain defuse?

No, it's either

  • Hepta-Detach (Horizontal), which has a longer animation and does less damage than a single hit of Wuchen's Skill.
  • Defuse Solve (Vertical), which has decent range and fast animation. Not much damage, but better than Hepta-Detach in every situation.
flat pier
#

nope.. no chain defuse.. XD thank you

cursive fable
#

tundra might

sinful ocean
#

What is the current best build?

fierce light
steep patio
#

so just farm nirriti till max lvl or high enough to get em

fierce light
#

Can confirm Poison Seep only procs on one enemy at a time. Very little hope for Poison.

lone umbra
#

why are they giving poison jade if it is useless

#

and they are being too generous with flux shard

steep patio
#

i got 8 of em saved up

#

im ready

sinful ocean
#

Anyone going for a run on Nirriti's ruins?

fierce light
#

Hmm

#

Actually Poison might not be so bad

#

I think you'd want to go for Dmg to Bosses

#

I'll do more calcs tomorrow, time to play

flat pier
#

zero

#

potential plan please

#

when you can XD

fierce light
#

Lmao

#

It's pretty simple tbh

#

You only go what boosts you

#

Green for Thunder, Red for Poison, Blue for Ice.

flat pier
#

oh ok xD

#

do we need super rare stats like 100% mod again this time around?

#

or 2 windfall every jade?

#

for ice i mean

green dagger
hollow escarp
#

so is a new ice set updated>

lone umbra

💀 how he inside

steep patio
lone umbra
#

devs cooked something

fierce light
#

Wow Bow feels weird on controller

#

Takes a while to charge dead eye in Nirriti's Ruins as well

steep patio
#

again dont aim in

fierce light
#

I didn't, but it was doing this weird stance that made my sensitivity crazy high

steep patio
#

when you hit the red circle thats the dead eye

#

your highlighted yellow like thunder shock

#

every time you hit you get the dead eye "pose"

fierce light
#

Jeez the ring selection feels worse

#

Can't lie ranged is pretty fun in Ruins. Even on controller

#

Plus the fact I'm keeping up or surpassing my teammates in damage

north lynx
austere kraken
#

only nirriti to farm xd?

balmy coral
#

Your dmg would peak

viscid wraith
fierce light
clear badger
#

So basically farm Nirriti till you have enough level to do Enigma right?

#

Still need to unlock new jades, but need level and courage to face that stupid new boss on nightscream..

Lol

balmy coral
#

@fierce light how do u rate this build?

#

Lol what's with this mod streak I'm getting

fierce light
balmy coral
hidden creek
#

so dmg dealt from skill and ultimate doesn't counts?

amber terrace
hidden creek
#

bruh

#

toxin seep requires you to include alot of aegis break/defuse counter attack in your rotation
thunder charge requires you to does weapon dmg
chill spike is using skill

#

they clearly want to make mod builds ice exclusive

safe seal
#

from where u can get chill chain? the only thing i saw was frostbite chain

hidden creek
#

they're the same

safe seal
#

oh

#

great

#

then

hidden creek
#

can someone gives me a quick rundown of the deadeye system

north lynx
#

My teammates all didn't have a life tho Ingot

woven ingot
hidden creek
north lynx
#

I can gib me a sec

#

Deadeye builds up the more you hit a target with a ranged weapon. When you build up enough meter it turns red.

#

When the meter turns red, you are in deadeye state

#

On bosses, a target or 2 will appear on them when you have red meter.

#

If you hit these targets, your deadeye meter will increase. It also does more damage than regular shots. Headshots still do more than deadeye, so it's important to mix

woven musk
#

is 2x windfall useless?

north lynx
#

If you charge till the second stage, right at a certain time, bow and musket can do a special aegis break move when deadeye is full

#

Headshots can stagger with full deadeye on bosses

#

(I think, it might be something else causing bosses to stagger not 100%)

austere kraken
#

men is so hard to do anything in this game now

#

wtf

#

we die so ez

north lynx
#

Potential glyphs boost deadeye, so do Anima rings

subtle bramble
north lynx
#

Good enough rundown?

austere kraken
#

whats funy there?

subtle bramble
north lynx
hidden creek
#

so basically just pew pew when got red pew pew the red

austere kraken
north lynx
#

Ye, but also sometimes head shots cause they still do more damage

#

You just wanna keep your meter up by hitting the targets

subtle bramble
#

and only headshots can stagger bosses right?

north lynx
#

Bow is crazy fun

scenic moth
#

@fierce light How can we fast up Showdown level? Do u know?

north lynx
#

I kept a boss permanently staggered for a round doing this

#

Super fun

#

Dude just kept flinching

hidden creek
#

wish they increase the firerate during deadeye status

#

also gives us unlimited dodge

#

so i can turn into a m61 vulcan

dusk plover
balmy coral
#

First ever decent drop

north lynx
#

Bow ruins build is so fun that I want a thunder bow build

#

Also justinas an f merchant her ult is so mid. It's cool she has unlimited healing but dodge defuse and no ult makes her eh.

Her f is an instant thunder accum like tarka and matari, but idk whyd you play her over tessa

@balmy coral you were right I was just high off self healing and bow

balmy coral
#

but ngl bow is so boring .. I don't feel the thrill without difuse and parry

amber terrace
balmy coral

they added this feature but F Tarka Ji still make me blind

this would've been very useful for the entirety of last season

the lotus pollution on the screen 😭 and Tessa's fox curio

quaint girder
#

What's the last anime ring for ranged?

#

Do I need a specific element like the toxic lotus?

quaint girder
# amber terrace

Thanks, no special conditions to get this one? Just keep rolling ranged?

Sounds like there's a catch

Me neither.

i feel like hepta detach should heal a bit more to make up for the fact it ain't doing barely any damage

river stratus

need more heal

white turret
#

Any ppl a fan of this showdown rework? Seems like a pain in the ass to me

balmy coral

It's aight

white turret
#

Wouldve liked it better if they kept sens level

balmy coral
#

annoying boss nothing new

#

broken stuff

white turret
#

Went from max sens to shitty low level and have to grind all over again

#

Nty

subtle bramble
#

lol there's a naraka ball stage in Nirriti

quaint girder
#

Doesn't tell me which Souljades drop on that menu

#

Or at least the new Soulajdes

round glacier
#

Basicially need specific souljade for potential

#

Kinda sucks

quaint girder
#

At the beginning of each season before you had to grind sense level anyway

white turret
#

A very small amount

quaint girder
#

It's more or less the same

quaint girder
bold ice
white turret
#

Also i cant even play the modes i had unlocked in previous seasons

round glacier
#

Anyone know the meta poison build?

white turret
#

Cuz low level

quaint girder
quaint girder
white turret
#

Almost

#

I honestly think they lost me with this update . I'll still play survival modes tho. But not showdown

bold ice
#

Idk, it's kinda not fun to chase a build for the entire season, and when you finally get close to completion, the entire thing gets flipped

white turret
#

Exactly

quaint girder
#

Happens literally every season since 1.0

#

You guys seem to be new to this

bold ice
#

That doesn't make it any less tiresome

#

I know it happens, doesn't mean I like it

quaint girder
#

Fair

bold ice
#

I've no clue how anyone can have stacks of unused fragments

#

Even one stack would be crazy

#

Even 500 unused fragments honestly

quaint girder
#

On base Souljades like Thundercounter and Thunderpull

#

If you have those, you basically save half the fragments needed in a season

bold ice
#

This will be my third season, I managed to get semi-good thunderscorch and basically 99% completed ilm

#

But I'm bone dry on fragments

quaint girder
bold ice
#

And now once again new jades, lotus goes in the bin, by the time I'll get the new stuff finished I won't even have time to enjoy it

quaint girder
#

Very unlucky investment

quaint girder
bold ice
#

Maybe I spent a bit too much in niritti

quaint girder
#

Basically

#

After you finish Season Quests and Anima Ring Collection you swap to Enigma

#

Usually you'd want to do gold keys for peak

#

The other thing you'd do is Inferno

#

Both give you a lot more Fragments than Nirritis

lone umbra
#

wtf this skin is of heng sword

bold ice
#

I did inferno exclusively since it came out

bold ice
quaint girder
bold ice

But also not limited by keys

It was skill based

It would take weeks fmto get a single purple jade if u played 60 hrs a week

#

So no one have builds

#

Now the jades play the game

#

Skill is gone

pearl fractal

But like why remove sense requirements and change it to levels that take weeks to aquire it defeats the purpose thisismylife

humble flare

I haven't looked at update

pearl fractal
#

Its garbage.

#

Flat out

humble flare
#

I miss showdown but its too casual these days

pearl fractal
#

Grinded my way to 1k sense and bam back to beginning cause it change to showdown level

humble flare

When it was literally brutal and skill based it was exhilarating to get a perfect run and top the board

humble flare

Like why change it? I just dont understand who had this dumb idea

Most just want to be good with minimal effort

balmy coral
#

won't be as good as ice thou

north lynx
#

I heard poisen is the only thing that keeps lotus

#

"Only Lotus build that will remain in Season 3.0 is currently Poison because Core Poison is more passive with focus on piling DoTs and the increased attack buff. Lotus Poison has better DPS than Core Lotus due to the bursty nature of the Ghastbloom Chains."

balmy coral

#

anyone test ice bow or thunder bow is better?

north lynx

Ik but even with that info

#

That's what people are saying

north lynx
amber terrace
#

maybe

balmy coral
#

Probably if someone could test and sweep these new two poison Jade into the build

north lynx
#

Think theres 3 new ones

#

Cause u run ele surge too

So whats the new best ice build can someone send a pic?

north lynx

From what I was told idk if it's good

My source is good tho

balmy coral

north lynx

This is just what I was told from some good showdown gamers

But it's early season

#

Who knows

amber terrace
#

maybe but this season just 3 months

north lynx
#

I wish thunder scorch worked with bow

#

Isn't feasible tho unfortunately

#

Can't get the proc without swaping to melee

#

Maybe if I do some wep swap tech

#

Ranged would need to be crazy worth in dps

#

Seems like wayy to much work tho, would have to be like swap pre divine thunder, or parry, c swap h, parry dodge, attack dodge

#

All in a sequence

#

Then swap back to range

#

With trios desync/delay yeah right

amber terrace
#

so hard to do with scorch

north lynx

Eh the nerf for burn is overblown a bit

So we have to move to ice

hi, whats the way to lvl up now sense lvl has been reset?

I don't miss only being able to play on weekends. I don't miss the frustrating grind to get decent jades to be even a little viable, I don't miss the awful Quench Crystal system that was really bad RNG

They are not even in same universe

Lmao ok

quaint girder

Nirritis and Quests are not included in the comparison

quaint girder

Nirritis and Quests improved jade farming tremendously.

humble flare
#

You obviously didn't play showdown before it was made casual thats ok

#

I'm not going to argue with you

quaint girder

But if you decided to not do quests and do Enigma and Story only the rates are really bad.

So its accelerates the Blessing so you don't have to spend as many anima rings on the trait OR it's clutch to finish a build in harder levels like NS and up.

#

Nice nice, I assume every trait now has that.

yup

#

all of these

#

it write in note patch

I read it, but I didn't quite understand the wordage because I forgot that the 4 and 8 same anima ring perk is called blessings

I'm talking first 6 months

I'm not you arse

There were 0 builds

The first 6 months of Showdown?

humble flare
#

Yes its what I was talking about when you jumped in

#

Ur dense

#

Or just don't read

quaint girder

Bro I thought you were talking about the few months before Seasons. The first 6 months ofc there are no builds, the game literally started

Idk

Moka you're shite

That's why I smoke u

I never played with you lmao

First 6 months was mainly Backfire + Desperation

humble flare
#

And that's if someone had it

fierce light
#

Cause back then every attack and DMG Bonus you had was multiplicative

#

It was pretty broken, especially if you rolled good attributes.

quaint girder

Couldn't compete with someone, I remember Douya having a cracked build that early

And was out damaging everyone on Viper easily

Dumb asf

If you want a sandbox game with infinite powerscaling and "skill based" play it wasn't Showdown for sure lmao.

I don't think u understand wut u saying

That's not what u said

No you're just arguing grammar semantics at this point.

Hello! Are any builds already figured out for the new season?

# amber terrace No u can't

Why not? I thought you just use Depths, Successive, Frozen Blast, Element Rush, Ice Spike, and Frostbite Chain?

Or did the builds shift again now because of the potentials and live changes?

quaint girder

yes

Oh shit

#

oooooo

You'd want Sub-Zero Seal over that anyway for Ice

Only 15% Attack

I didn't realize, assumed it was a translation thing like Chill/Ice Spike

Just retested Ice Thorn's damage, it has a 9.1 multiplier instead of 7.0. They increased it from the Test Server by 30%.

grim girder
#

I have 100% on my Frozen Blast and Successive Ice Blast. I also have wildfall on Element Surge and Depth Blast. What should I put on the last 2 slots for Ice build?

fierce light

It now deals the damage of ~4.64 Blossom Blasts

Ice Spike is a lotta damage lol

Dang ima have to retest all this stuff, I'm getting different numbers than they did in CN

#

Ice Lotus got nerfed even harder than it was

stone niche
#

is the grind now to just lvl up showdown lvl to max through niritti?

quaint girder
grim girder
#

8 WF is for super rich, I'm not so rich, so I only use 1 WF and dmg to boss, attack and ice blast dmg per souljade.

quaint girder
# raven rapids blessings

You need a Yin Anima Ring and a Yang Anima Ring that actually adds an additional effect to your attacks.

raven rapids
#

how do i actually trigger it , i had like 12 rings of that attr , but couldnt trigger it at all

quaint girder
#

Once you have those, its just popping a Charged Attack into an Normal Attack or Vice Versa then the Yin-Yang AoE will pop

fierce light
raven rapids
#

oo... thanks so much

quaint girder

Just hit the first level of Blessing on 6 different anima ring type

#

its not hard if you focus Currency Blessings (except for Might which burns your gold) and then use the excess wealth to purchase different types of anime rings

quaint girder
#

The only consistent thing they've kept are "Core" Elemental Souljades.

#

For DT that's Thunderpull and Thundercounter. For Ice its Successive Ice Blase and a toss up between Frozen Blast and Depths Blast.

#

Those are probably the safest investments for rares

#

For Poison it's still in flux, but Pestilent Pool seems to be consistent across all Poison builds so far.

Ngl

#

Scorching is a rare attribute

woven musk
#

45 fatigue from nirriti gives me 225 exp with 50% bonus @150%

north lynx
#

It's criminal they are pushing away it's viability

quaint girder
#

Since you realistically can't break it.

north lynx
quaint girder
#

It's kinda weird though, they nerfed Scorching specifically while Poison still exists and ignores Aegis. Also Lotuses just dealt so much elemental damage past Aegis it's basically brute forcing.

fierce light
#

Here are the new Lotus numbers vs the old. They nerfed it by almost 2/3rds.

woven musk
#

i feel like you simply get more exp when you drain more fatigue?

quaint girder
quaint girder

that's awful, entire investments scream into the void only to meet silence

#

Nirritis was still king for Potential Leveling, but sucked ass at Sense Levels

#

Now they're merged, but they kept the exp scaling for Nirritis so people don't need to run Enigma

north lynx
#

Like what's the point of scorching now, other than just griefing your rolls?

woven musk
#

ok ill just spam nirritis, topaz bosses are cancer this season

hollow light
#

Hi guys, just got back from the game, is thunder scorch still the best build late game wise? Am hesitant to do a new build

quaint girder
#

It looks like the pipeline they're currently trying to build is play Nirriti's for Fire Forge/Showdown Level/Carved Crystal, then swap to Enigma for Souljades, then farm Inferno to then get Curios and finish off with Yama 20

quaint girder
north lynx
#

I can solo enigma and up to solar 2 on a 50 level deficient

hollow light
#

thanks, what's leading rn? Lotus?

north lynx
#

Probably ice charge

north lynx
#

But it's still too early

quaint girder
#

I feel like they should just redo burn and scorching

#

as well as hydroscorch

#

just turn it into its own element Fire

#

and give it a slightly different twist to DoT mechanics compared to poison

hollow light
#

I see, okay, i'll keep a lookout on what's new

north lynx
#

I just wish they would keep things viable. There will always be 1-2 best builds, but everything should be close enough

quaint girder
north lynx
#

Remember skyfire

quaint girder
north lynx
#

Defuse hydroflare?

#

They did the same thing to those

#

Now it's pushing lotus out

fierce light
#

Alright all my numbers on the spreadsheet should be up to date now

north lynx
#

It's a pattern

quaint girder
quaint girder
fierce light
#

I'll do some parses later, but that buff to Ice Spike is looking like Ice is definitely the meta

hollow light
#

ah fudge, I was looking at Dark Zero's site and thought nothing much changed, okay I better just grind for now and see what's the current meta

fierce light
#

Scorching got nerfed less than Lotus

quaint girder
north lynx
quaint girder
north lynx
#

But I know the new charge stuff will blow it out

fierce light
#

HydroFlare DMG is at most 45% weaker than before. Lotus is ~60-65% weaker.

quaint girder
#

looks like they make all old season build viable, but not leaderboard viable.

quaint girder
fierce light
#

Well element dmg (Thunder Counter, Ice Blast, etc) not being nerfed probably makes it about even.

quaint girder
north lynx
#

Except I'm p sure Surge builds slam both

fierce light
north lynx
#

And ranged builds too

quaint girder
#

Meaning it looks like the pattern now is they push out a new Jade mechanic like Hydroflare, Lotuses, and Surge now. Then they'll nerf it the next season. Looks like base element build jades like Thunder Counter, Successive Ice Blast are stable investments for rares.

quaint girder
quaint girder
north lynx
#

Not a fan of that pattern. People will build new builds and play showdown. You don't need to cycle out older builds to get people to grind.

quaint girder
#

If we compare Lotus's change to Scorching's 1.5 to 3.0 we should see similar %'s

north lynx
#

Esp if you make the new stuff slightly better

Instead of extremely

new ice heavily favor using skills

#

so mod is a must

#

and most of its dmg is still from ice blast so yeah windfall where you can

#

ice jade literally tell you to use your skill lol

#

while poison is using aegis break/defuse counter attack and thunder is using weapon attack

#

looks like thunder and poison doesn't need, or even doesn't want 100% mod

#

they need more windfall

grim girder
#

Is Elemental Rush better than Sub Zero?

hidden creek
#

it's not

quaint girder
fierce light
quaint girder
#

Lotus had not only a harder drop than Scorching, it happened in literally one Season.

#

So we went from powerful Lotus spammers, to now as weak as Scorch

#

But in game it feels much much worse since we're looking at an almost 3.0 coefficient loss in one season vs Scorch's 1.5 over two seasons.

fierce light
quaint girder
#

So Lotus is even worse because it doesn't have the base numbers lmaoooo

lusty prism
#

Question, the curios are inactive right?

north lynx

Even without the absurd tarka build, the bonuses to elemental accumulation and blossom blast was too much

quaint girder
north lynx
#

Tls?

#

Or like scaling thunder

#

Regular tl

quaint girder
#

Regular TL I think

north lynx
#

Yeah it was good, high scaling.

#

Scorching builds just didn't get much

quaint girder
#

Was like TP, TC, TP, TL, ThunderousLotus, and MLC

#

it wasn't broken bonkers like Ice or even Poison

#

but felt good to play and pilot and rewarded good skill

north lynx
#

I think that build had higher scaling than both

lusty prism
#

Damn the potential plan reset as well?

quaint girder
#

sad it got nerf.

quaint girder
#

Mod is just too strong with successive ice blast

#

Now with Successive and Spike your skill is never on CD

#

especially for Justina who ignore freeze and scales off of ice or at least that's what I heard someone say

north lynx
#

Eh justina can't freeze bosses

#

Doesn't really have any self ice things as far as I'm aware

#

Her f is good

fierce light
north lynx
#

But worse than tarka f or tessa, or even matari

#

Justina, while fun, is no zip release

lusty prism
quaint girder
#

I haven't been able to test this morning, quickly did dailies before I had to catch my bus for work

north lynx
#

Idk depends on builds. Will still probably be a top tier tho

fierce light
quaint girder
north lynx
#

Is it from the hidden bonuses in ult?

fierce light
#

But so far it just looks like she benefits from a free Moderation from being frozen

quaint girder
#

Probably best way to test is too see if she deals more damage in V and F hit with and without Ice Element Damage substats

#

To see if she truly scales

#

Otherwise she just has better synergy with Ice than other elements because she can just F out of a badly timed freeze

fierce light
#

Oh shit

#

They weren't bullshitting

quaint girder
#

OH WHAT

#

FR ZERO?

#

SHE ACTUALLY SCALES OFF OF ICE ELEMENT DAMAGE?

fierce light
#

Bottom was with Frozen Blast + Depth's Blast.

Top was with nothing

wind light
#

there is a bug

#

i completed nightscream with low health

quaint girder
#

But which parts of her? Just F/V or includes her damage.

north lynx
#

Wait that's like

#

Double

#

That's crazy wtf

quaint girder
#

that's double

fierce light
#

Yeah +95% Ice Blast DMG

lusty prism
quaint girder
#

Hmm

fierce light
#

No wonder my Justina cleared Solar so much faster than Ziping lol

quaint girder
#

Both running Ice?

#

If they are that's massive, basically meta has shifted to Justina only DPS

fierce light
#

+0 Ice-Wielding lol

quaint girder
#

basically it will be Zippy, Kuwumba, Justina comp with everyone super soldiering Justina

quaint girder
#

So basically meta is specifically Justina + Ice Build for first time clearing.

fierce light
#

Her Skill isn't affected, just her Ultimate

quaint girder
#

ahh

#

how about her LS Attacks?

wind light
#

i completed nightscream but it didnt complete

quaint girder
#

If that's the case, I wonder if its better to run Rage substats on her or wait for Curios?

north lynx
#

I figured it had to be in her ult. It's the altered aegis breaks right?

amber terrace
#

<10% HP

#

not >10%

quaint girder
#

The best way to do this is get that Green Scroll Rare Perk that increases attack but constantly degenerates HP

#

And just don't die

#

Ziping and Kurumis will mess your runs

#

so its better to just run solo as Wuchen or a safer hero and get that perk

fierce light
quaint girder
# wind light ahshit

Yeah it's not 10% once during the run, it's less than 10% as soon as the finall boss dies

quaint girder
#

Okay it's big, but not as big as I thought

fierce light
# wind light

Yeah that challenge is pretty difficult since they nerfed poison.

quaint girder
#

So could it also be a hinderance to Justina if she doesn't land her ulti?

fierce light
quaint girder

yeah just I thought
