Also

#

if you're skilled enough you should be able to keep deadeye up indefinitely

hidden creek
#

but wouldn't you want this if you gonna run ice bow?

#

or it doesn't works/doesn't matters

quaint girder
#

DPS loss from Desperation/Renew is lost if you don't go green

fierce light
quaint girder
#

Red is required because of bow's intense ammow economy

fierce light
#

Not even including the bonus accumulation from the elemental arrows themself

quaint girder
#

yep yep

quaint girder
#

Zero what about this for poison?

fierce light
#

Also Element is just going to be a small portion of your damage anyway

quaint girder
#

Basically you pop pool and actually become a melee ranged

#

and pop the surge buffs on the tree

#

by running into your own pool lmao

fierce light
#

One Void Destroyer does the damage of 6.75 Successive Ice Blasts 💀

fierce light
quaint girder
#

perma 12% buff using pestilent pool

fierce light
#

Oh yeah Feria.

quaint girder
#

yeah I was playing around with the idea of maximizing the use of potential tree

#

but wasn't sure if the multipliers added up

#

Musket doesn't need red tree as much because of Skyrender

fierce light
#

Well I haven't done as much testing on Musket, but I noticed on Bow that elemental arrows decreases the multiplier for headshots & weakpoints hits significantly.

  • Headshots: x1.5 -> x1.05
  • Weakpoint Hits: x1.25 -> x1.025
quaint girder
#

Oh shit

#

meaning that if you put a 6x element on something it potentially gimps your damage

fierce light
#

So you really just got to hit them, don't have to bother aiming too hard really lol

quaint girder
#

oh

#

mb i got it backwards

#

basically elements pop super easy

fierce light
#

I'm talking about Frost Arrows, Toxic Arrows, etc

quaint girder
#

Could Bow make use of this Poison Build or is the Ice Multipliers too good to give up?

fierce light
#

Musket seems to work differently from the little testing I did

#

It applies a DoT instead for Musket

quaint girder
#

Yeah

#

its not very effective, the ticks stagger enemies so its hard to do followup shots

fierce light
#

I think you want to stick to this in general for any Bow build.

quaint girder
#

Gotcha so Poison isn't as viable.

#

oh gods

#

what if Feria's ideal build is a melee Toxic Chain F spam melee musket build

#

what have I done

fierce light
#

Toxin Blast might do slightly more than a Void Destroyer (48x vs 46.24x), but it'll take 12s to even activate, unless you're mobbing.

fierce light
#

That and there's no dedicated attribute for Toxin Blast like Bow has Ranged Weapon DMG.

fierce light
# quaint girder

Yeah, Poison Blast every 6s.
3 stacks of Toxified per Blast.

  • Noxious Blast (+1), Pestilent Pool (+2).
    So Toxin Blast every 12s.
quaint girder
#

Toxin Blast is different from Poison Blast?

quaint girder
#

Bow has the upfront burst already, and Void Destroyer already has insane multipliers/multishot

fierce light
quaint girder
#

No need for additional buffs from Poison because Ice damage pops instantly

#

hmm

fierce light
#

Bow is pretty complete, just a matter of what element you prefer lol

quaint girder
#

Can we make use of Element Fury or Element Afterglow buffs or are the modifers too small?

fierce light
#

Or really can run whatever elements you want, the damage is inconsequential for Bow

fierce light
#

Well hmm

quaint girder
#

I sent you the poison build

#

you can pop pool

#

stand in it

#

pop toxic surge

fierce light
#

Nvm

quaint girder
#

and then get a buff

quaint girder
#

Am trying to maximize potential, but I wasn't familiar with the coefficients/modifiers so my data was incomplete

fierce light
#
  • +20% Element Surge
  • +12% during Surge
  • +12% after first Surge

44% greater than the 40% from Renewed Vigor + Backfire.

#

However, it requires you to be close enough to get poisoned.

quaint girder
#

isn't it 32% actually?

quaint girder
#

since one happens during the surge and on happens after?

quaint girder
fierce light
quaint girder
fierce light
#

You can ignore the exact dmg calculations, since I don't know how the new Sense Suppression system works.

quaint girder
#

gotcha

fierce light
#

But the DMG Coefficients are accurate.

quaint girder
#

hmm

fierce light
#

DMG Coefficient just being the multiplier on your Attack, before DMG Bonuses.

quaint girder
#

would Desperation/Renewed be additive to Surge/Potentials?

fierce light
#

Desperation would add onto DMG to Bosses and Ranged Weapon DMG.

hidden creek
#

so what attributes you want on ranged builds
do we want ranged dmg?

quaint girder
#

Ranged DMG, ATK, and DMG to boss are musts

fierce light
hidden creek
#

then 1 wf each jade? lol

quaint girder
#

the rest is balancing between Deadeye Accumulation to get started and elemental damage and or windfalls

quaint girder
fierce light
#

After that it's more of the utility attributes to help your uptime:

  • Deadeye Build Rate, No Depletion: Weapon Repair Kit, etc
hidden creek
#

interesting

#

seems cheap

quaint girder
fierce light
#

You can get away with no rares for Ranged build.

quaint girder
fierce light
hidden creek
#

i always got parties

quaint girder
#

in particular a transformer who can draw aggro is preferred so you don't get targeted by attacks

fierce light
quaint girder
fierce light
quaint girder
#

I'm used to Warframe's modding system where most buffs are additive and the rare multiplicative buffs are always am ust

fierce light
#

Sometimes they like to randomly make them multiplicative.

quaint girder
fierce light
#

Yeah that would also hurt the prospects of Ice Lotus Chain

quaint girder
#

if its additive then you'd drop one or the other and look for better multiplicative buffs

#

indeed

#

That's the big blocker for me, is it worth trying this melee ranged poison pool build

#

Bow is basically solved, but now its a matter of figuring out Musket. Musket has much more better ammo economy. With Scarlet Guanyin it should theoretically hit similar thresholds as Bow Void Destroyer headshots

#

but the issue is how to fill in the rest of the SJ/Potential board.

fierce light
#

Ah nvm Musket's headshot and weakpoint multipliers aren't affected by Elemental Jades I remember

#

Just the extra elemental DoT isn't considered in the multipliers.

#

Not that they hit particularly hard anyway, might not be worth

quaint girder
fierce light
#

Lol I could get started on a bow build right now

#

Luckily had each jade with somewhat decent stats.

#

Elemental Afterglow is additive (thank God)/

quaint girder
clear badger
#

Assuming i have all new jades, what build should I run on Zip/Tessa? Ice build in general i guess?

quaint girder
quaint girder
fierce light
#

Element Fury is additive as well.

quaint girder
#

woooo

fierce light
quaint girder
#

Man, my build will be so impractical

fierce light
#

Since it has so many valuable attributes

quaint girder
#

Or....

fierce light
#

Yeah I would still stick to the Renewed Vigor + Backfire version

quaint girder
#

lol

fierce light
#

Pestilent Pool requires you to be somewhat close.

clear badger
# quaint girder yes

Ty. Makes sense with both having easy and fast accumulation. The jade build is same as in pins right? (Ele Surge, Succesive IB, Dephts Blast, Frost Chain, Chill spike and Fr. Blaat). Sorry for asking much, its my first showdown season participating from start of it.

fierce light
quaint girder
#

you got it

#

So yeah, then unlike bow that can rely on elemental accumulation

#

Musket needs to lean heavily into base damage modifiers instead.

fierce light
#

I did come up with a new one that seems to be slightly better and significantly easier to play though:

Ice Lotus Chain

  • Successive Ice Blast
  • Frozen Blast
  • Element Surge
  • Frostbite Chain
  • Elemental Lotus
  • Ghastbloom
#

Frostbite Surge is likely the BiS for Justina Gu though.

clear badger
#

Ty both Valda_heart Gotta slowly work on rares for 4x mod and rest WF.

river stratus
#

@quaint girder where do you find that musket jade scarlet guanyin?

quaint girder
#

If you collected it in the past it should appear in the narakapedia and can be remade for 2 fragments

#

If you're a new player, you can just use Shattered Edge. It's a slight DPS loss, but not headshot dependent

fierce light
#

Musket looking like the Skill-Check Ranged Weapon

#

While Bow is more unga-bunga

fierce light
#

Alright ima take a little break before I test Musket

hidden creek
#

can just use shattered edge instead of backfire lol

#

the difference is prolly unnoticeable and you don't lose your whole hp bar

river stratus
hidden creek
#

it will still be active

#

the jade effect is ''when you gain recovery effect'' not ''when you recovery''

river stratus
#

oh

hidden creek
#

wait a minute

#

looks like it doesn't works like that anymore
weird that they changed it, i used to rock the thunderheal and renewed vigor combo when i first started showdown
and why tf thunderheal got a 10s cd now lmfao
oh well backfire it is then

turbid agate
fierce light
fierce light
hidden creek
#

yea dunno why they changed it tho

#

no one even uses that jade

fierce light
#

I remember running it with Soul Shiver.

hidden creek
#

this time they really thought about it huh

#

can't let a build with 0 penalty exist

quaint girder
#

Should we swap it off for Shattered instead then?

hidden creek
quaint girder
#

Desperation reduces HP, but maybe the Deadeye Potential healing is too high

hidden creek
#

nah

#

they changed it

#

back then its dmg boost effect still happens even if your hp and armor are full

#

as long as you receive a recovery effect

#

but now if you're not actually healing the dmg boost won't active

quaint girder
#

In theory

#

Desperation should cause HP loss which the Potential heals back so the buff should be almost 100% uptime

turbid agate
quaint girder
#

But I can also see that if you get overhealed, you'll lose the buff and it's a massive loss

#

Vs the persistent 18%

hidden creek
#

eh no i was talking about shattered edge replace backfire not vigor, so we still got vigor dmg boost effect w/o losing hp
but vigor now need you to actually heal to active so

wind light
hidden creek
#

but yeah ig we can also replace vigor with shattered edge, that 2% diff is like nothing

wind light
#

i cant remember their attack

fierce light
#

It was easy when I played on my gaming laptop, but it's a pain on Xbox

fierce light
#

Swear it wasn't when I tested it

hidden creek
#

huh no

fierce light
# wind light any new vids guide how to beat new boss

It would be a pain to try to record from my Xbox (cause I'd have to upload each individual clip to then download). All I can say really is go in solo and practice dodging-only. You'll pick up on her attack patterns quickly.

#

She does have a few attacks you have to jump over though, mind you

turbid agate
fierce light
hidden creek
#

i wanted to run vigor + shattered edge (20% + 18%) instead of vigor + backfire (20% + 20%), only 2% attack diff and i won't lose hp cuz no backfire, cuz i remember vigor dmg boost effect is active ''when you receive recovery effect'', even if you don't actually heal, but they changed it, now you actually need to heal for vigor to active

#

so yeah now can only run shattered edge + backfire or vigor + backfire

summer ridge
#

Create a new loadout

#

You don’t have to get rid of the original

quaint girder
#

This build checks out

timid stirrup
#

What replaces scaarlet guanyin if we don't have it?

hidden creek
hidden creek
#

because it's not 2% dmg diff

#

it's prolly like less than 0.5% or something

#

cuz our total attack % is like 200%++ lol
200 and 202% what's the difference

quaint girder
#

So it's about like a 1k loss per shot

hidden creek
#

that's bcoz you don't have attack % on soul jades

#

the higher it goes, the heavier diminishing returns it gets

quaint girder
#

It's because it's additive

#

Hmm

fierce light
#

Yeah at max build (4% Attack per Souljade, no Windfalls), you'd be at 36% Attack bonus, with 20% from Backfire that's 56%.

  • Renewed Vigor would be a 12.8% DPS increase during Deadeye.
  • Shattered Edge would be an 11.5% DPS increase while shooting.
hidden creek
#

this include windfalls yet or not?

fierce light
#

About a 1.1% difference

hidden creek
#

yea lol

fierce light
hidden creek
#

and then that 1.1% diff will decrease even more when it gets added onto the total dmg equation

quaint girder
#

With windfalls then even less

#

Hmm

#

Then it might be better just to sack Renew all together in favor of shattered edge

#

Ooooo my brain juices are excited

hidden creek
#

yea shattered edge looks much more consistent

river stratus
#

bolt mastery have same consistency as shattered edge

fierce light
#

Quick Attack better than Bolt Mastery if you're considering it.

#

Some reason Bow doesn't deactivate it

hidden creek
#

and get rid of renewal vigor allows us to not taking the green node that heals u during deadeye, tho idk if there's another node that worth taking

fierce light
#

There's not really any other nodes to consider

timid stirrup
#

is ice lotus chain better than frost surge for matari?

fierce light
#

Well I guess go for the 4.5% Attack one?

fierce light
#

Not having to defuse and being able to purely stay flying, using your skill right on reset works well

hidden creek
#

lmao

#

bow charge attack isn't considered a charge attack?

summer ridge
#

What gives out the best xp

fierce light

Only charged melee attacks seem to

yea ig

fierce light
#

Alright done with my break gonna test musket

quaint girder
#

Yeeeey

quaint girder
#

We can also consider Aegis Shot Break as a side grade utility

#

Where Musket can actually be an Aegis Breaker especially when paired with Valda's abilities

fierce light
#

Gonna help a friend

fierce light
quaint girder
#

That rapid fire headshot is kinda insane

#

If your frames are fast enough you can hold aim input and rapidly tap fire without the game actually zooming down the sights

fierce light
#

The regular shots, not Skyrender?

quaint girder
#

its really cool

fierce light
#

Seems slower

#

I'll see in a bit after I finish helping my friend

quaint girder
#

I tested with the two Potential Bursts. I feel like I can push this build even higher if I do substats correctly

#

I went from 36k to 40k by doing Afterglow and Fury

#

But I have to position properly at the edge of the pool to get the buff and not be in front of the bosses face

fierce light
#

Pretty much gotta be in melee range though?

quaint girder
#

Also another issue is that Skyrender's reload animations slide you closer to your target very slowly, but after 10 shots you can tell that you definitely moved

#

Void Destroyer does the opposite and pushes you slightly more away

quaint girder
#

Is it practical? Probably not, but we're trying to max numbers then work our way down

#

Hmmm

#

Maybe we can revisit Thunder Surge, but I feel like it's still too clunky

hidden creek
#

what about this build? Matari_Laugh

fierce light
#

It's horizontal investment

quaint girder
hidden creek
#

nah not taking ice blast dmg

#

stats are the same

#

i'm finding a way to make use of the last 2 potential nodes

#

cuz we got 2 to spare

#

and i want to take the during and after surge dmg boost node

fierce light
#

Ah

#

3 jades for 39% Attack

hidden creek
#

so
element surge: 15% dmg
subzero seal: 20%
succ ice blast and depth blast is just to increase my ice metter to get to surge state
and i benefits from those 2 nodes

#

12% during surge state and another 12% for 30s when it ends

#

and those 2 could stacks

summer ridge
#

Does being in party give boost too

quaint girder
#

@hidden creek what about ammo economy

#

You're going to have very high burst but reloading is gonna hurt the DPS a bit

hidden creek
#

idk it doesn't seems like i need to reload that much

#

wait imma upload the vid

quaint girder
#

Did you turn off reload in Training?

hidden creek
#

i did

river stratus
#

with this i got 23k headshot boss up, lev 76

quaint girder
#

If you're playing Justina you can just ignore and F lol

hidden creek
#

yea i realized it later

quaint girder
#

But yeah, then it's possible to do defuse swapping

#

But it's kind of a pain

#

I think Zero is also a controller player

hidden creek
#

just play justina lel

quaint girder
#

We'd have to rebind everything to do swapping on anyone else

hidden creek
#

also

quaint girder
#

Hmm

#

Maybe Justina makes that specific Ice Surge build viable

#

Reload didn't look too bad there

hidden creek
#

since sshot enhance allows you to proc element blast so easy

#

you don'tneed to run 6x ice

#

i do 3 ice 3 poison in the vid

#

so my ice bar stack up faster

#

1 scaterred shot enhance = 1 ice blast = full ice bar = surge state

#

so you enter surge state super quick

#

after it ran out

#

so you can maintain both dmg boost from both potential node

#

that's 12+12 = 24% attack inc

quaint girder
#

I wonder if the DPS is comparable to giving up the Desperation/Renewal combo

hidden creek
#

yeah that's the question lmfao

quaint girder
#

In theory this element build is done easily on Justina, but it just depends on Void Destroyer's modifiers

#

So Void Destroyer procs element easily with its coefficient, but more importantly it's just insane base damage to begin with

summer ridge
#

Hi

quaint girder
#

Which is why I think that raw attack might actually be better or at least that's what Zero was implying

summer ridge
#

Does harder nirriti give more xp

quaint girder
#

Only difference is drop pool as well as completing quest requirements

#

If you finished farming all your quests and drops spamming normal is best

hidden creek
#

take 0 ice blast dmg on this build

summer ridge
#

I unlocked legend

quaint girder
summer ridge
#

I’m trying to beat this Yama abyss boss but he’s hard

hidden creek
#

on desperation renewal vigor build you got 40% attack boost from sj and that's it
but my build you got 15% (element surge) + 20% (subzero seal) + 12% (element fury potential) + 12% (element afterglow potential)

#

for a total of 59% attack boost

summer ridge
#

How do you get windfall

quaint girder
#

It's a rare attribute so expect a lot of failures

summer ridge
quaint girder
summer ridge
#

Also I just have to farm jades then huh

quaint girder
#

Your burst is probably much higher, but you'd suffer over the longer the fight is

quaint girder
summer ridge
quaint girder
#

Generally it's the safest investment out of the 3 rares since both Mod and Scorching you only take a max of 4 each

hidden creek
summer ridge
#

I’m just trying to beat number 1 in abyss

quaint girder
#

It's more about the cumulative amount of time spent reloading

hidden creek
#

bruh

quaint girder
#

Wait

#

You're running red tree

#

Durh sorry brain farted

hidden creek
#

craftmanship decrease reload speed from 2.5s to 2 sec

#

0.5s every 2 mins

#

it's literally nothing

hidden creek
# quaint girder You're running red tree

yea you gonna take same potential, same sj stats with vigor backfire build, as i said it's still a raw dmg build, the ice jades is just to get to surge state for that dmg boost from element surge and 2 surge potential nodes

fierce light
#

But yeah yours is much safer

river stratus
normal plover
#

anyone want to do nightmare nitris ruins with me?

quaint girder
normal plover
#

or hARD

fierce light
#

If we're forgoing the utility Souljades

quaint girder
#

It only pops at 50% less HP, Shattered Edge seems more reliable

hidden creek
fierce light
#

So you have to start from Stage 0 instead of 1

hidden creek
#

what stage 0 and 1 lol

fierce light
hidden creek
#

it's a habit from pvp, dodge between shots so i can shoot faster

#

something wrong with it?

quaint girder
fierce light
#

But if you pull again instead it'll put you at stage 1

hidden creek
#

ohhh

#

so just don't move eh

quaint girder
#

Stage 0 = Releasing Immediately
Stage 1 = Firing a semi-charged shot
Stage 2 = Firing a fully charged shot

hidden creek
#

so this is how ''basic'' bow build would looks like if we took away all the utility jades lmfao

quaint girder
#

You need Stage 2 on precise release to pop off Void Destoryer

hidden creek
#

78% attk boost

#

wtf

quaint girder
#

Otherwise you waste little micro seconds on DPS with charging

quaint girder
#

Your build is definitely more consistent and safe on Justina

#

But on Temmy and Tessa they gotta pull all the stops

#

ACTUALLY

#

Bow might be better on Tessa

#

With her F she buffs attack too

#

If that modifier applies to bows

#

Then she's definitely the Deadeye Queen for Bows

fierce light
#

Forgot she's on Bow too

hidden creek
#

hmm

fierce light
#

Desperation boosts dmg

quaint girder
#

Yep

#

It does just a bit

hidden creek
#

welp ig there's no way to make use of those 2 potential points left

quaint girder
#

Tabbie I think your build is better for beginners and people who aren't confident in their sniping abilities

#

But this Desperation build is put on Tessa

quaint girder
hidden creek
#

but eh

quaint girder
#

Hellhole says hello

#

Technically

#

The Red tree makes you immune to the burn and poison

#

But if a high level Yama's boss even sneezes you ded

hidden creek
#

nah only immune to death from burn and poison

#

and it make burn and poison damage ur armor

#

so if you don't heal ur armor

quaint girder
#

Oh shit

Wtf

Oops sorry for the double ping

so is this not good?

fierce light

Aside from Successive Ice Blast

arent frozen blast and depth blast increase ice dmg?

that the new ice set then?

fierce light

Two new ice sets

#

They're in the pins

i didn't move at all and i still need to charge from stage 0?

hidden creek
#

also after awhile, sometimes it doesn't let me get to 2nd stage

#

How come I get frozen after first use of F too

#

On Justina

fierce light
hidden creek
#

if you caused multiple ice blasts ur self ice metter gets filled easily

quaint girder
#

So yeah, Tabbie's build is definitely the safer one

hidden creek
#

tf u mean rip

quaint girder
#

rip as in that Deadeye charge doesn't matter

hollow escarp
#

question what do we do with the blue jades now

quaint girder
#

so you can cancel dodge

#

meaning at this point Tabbie your build is viable, but it depend on if you want to max out damage at the cost of being as tanky as a paper plate

#

or if you want to deal with constant defusing

#

or just F as Justina lol

hidden creek
#

my build still got a perk

#

it makes you

#

GLOOOOOOOW

quaint girder
#

Tru

#

Cosmetics are everything

quaint girder
#

Basically

crimson cave
#

they coupd have just turned them into a jade frags or whatever i cannot imagine someone ever using blue jade for anything

summer ridge
#

They should allow me to use blue jades to increase jade states

hollow escarp
#

Like i have so many blue from b4 patch that just there

#

And they take up space

#

How do i get rid of them now

quaint girder
#

@hidden creek I like your build

#

It's more practical but only on Justina

#

Specifically because she actually has movement tech and cancelling

#

When Frostbite is about to hit, you can actually use two dashes consecutively.

#

Pop the dash as soon as you see the Frostbite warning, then dash again when you're Frozen

#

It covers a lot of distance making it easy to reposition away from bad angles or boss aggro

crimson cave
#

where you do 20 jades for 1

#

shittty ratio but idk what else could be done

quaint girder
#

Also there's dash canceling with aiming

balmy coral
hollow escarp
#

Oooh right that was a thing

fierce light
quaint girder
#

It's super tight, but when you're Frozen you pop F and immediately input Aim to stop the dash to continue DPS

#

There's a lot of movement tech with Justina and Deadeye actually

hollow escarp
crimson cave
hollow escarp
#

it was 50~60

crimson cave
#

its 33 in menu for me but gets to 50-60 in games i feel its sometimes too much or maybe inam justbthat bad lol

fierce light
crimson cave
#

so do you guys think this is viable?

no i mean the drop, i want the chain and spike ones

crimson cave

but ruins ns is the way to geind exp now thats true

hollow escarp

but they need to be unlocked from doing morus nightscream b4 showing up in nirriti right?

fierce light
crimson cave
#

cuz stats are shit and bolt mastery is windfall

#

I'm waiting for mats to imbue

fierce light
crimson cave
#

probably will switch after

#

or is ot worth switching even with shitty stats

fierce light
#

Yeah probably so as long as you're using Aegis-Break attacks a lot while in Elemental Surge

crimson cave
crimson cave
hidden creek
#

can we actually compare them in training

#

we can no? they run the same potential plan and takes the same stats on sj anyway

#

also i just realize that i don't need subzero to proc ice blast with 1 void destroyer
it also just need 1 ice wielding lmao

#

also i can even use thunder/toxic arrows instead of frost arrow lmao

fierce light
#

Yeah whatever bonus accumulation it does is not even needed.

quaint girder
quaint girder
#

Or would you sub it out for something else entirely

#

Wait

#

Would Miasma Drive work with Toxic Arrow?

#

That might push the damage a bit up

hidden creek
#

nah

#

miasma is toxified

quaint girder
#

Dang

hidden creek
#

toxic arrow is poison blast

quaint girder
#

Damn

hidden creek
hidden creek
quaint girder
#

Hmm

#

Does more wielding increase elemental damage dealt?

#

If not you could just have a mixture of thunder and poison to spam procs lol

hidden creek
#

it does

#

but we're not going for elemental damage here anyway

quaint girder
#

Ofc, but it adds an additional layer of damage

#

Anything is nice to have now we solved the 1 Ice Wielding

hidden creek
#

actually

#

why do we need to equips frost arrow?

fierce light
quaint girder
#

This is musket

hidden creek
#

oh

#

i see

fierce light
#

Oh

#

Oh wait that's outdated anyway

#

Normal Bow:

#

Elemental Bow:

hidden creek
#

yeah ok this build does more damages

#

oh wait actually i don't have enough potential yet

#

i'll test later

#

if the dmg of my build is not too far behind then it's still a solid build

fierce light
hidden creek
fierce light
#

Backfire + Desperation has an advantage in Free Training since Desperation gives a DMG Bonus. Can't get very many of those in there, so it's pretty much a x1.2 multiplier.

quaint girder
# hidden creek these 2

So I'm trying Deadeye, on controller is really damn hard to keep leading these jumping targets

#

Justina build gives a lot more forgiveness especially since you basically can have 100% Ulti Uptime

fierce light
#

What attributes are yall thinking of running as well

#

Meant to ask that.

quaint girder
#

Same as yours since the coefficient for Void Destroyer is crazy

hidden creek
#

yeah just attack/ranged dmg/dmg to boss

#

and 6x windfalls ig lmao

#

fuck those utility attributes

quaint girder
hidden creek
#

then the boss sneeze and you became no eye just dead

crimson cave
#

this makes me sad a lil bit

fierce light
#

I'm doing the 10 Enigma challenge atm

#

Can't wait till we hit 100

quaint girder
#

And outputs a respectable amount of damage

#

But compared to our glass turret build

crimson cave
#

fatigue at max anyway

#

gotta put those regular rune keys to use after all

balmy coral
fierce light
#

Gives us something to compare later when we hit 100 next week

i cant remember

We have bonus luck though so you can increase them by some unknown amount.

balmy coral
#

Nirriti bores me cos of loading screens

fierce light
#

Bores me cause of the garbage rings

balmy coral
#

That too lol

#

I could solo topaz now just need to level up a bit

#

Thou I'm not meant to do it solo

turbid agate
#

i cant believe im saying this but ranged is actually fun w deadeye

#

didnt think i would see the day

hidden creek
#

So i came up with this build

crimson cave
#

i love ruins

#

unless iits garbage rings when incant get 4 element rings in the whole run

hidden creek
#

Psure it does lower dmg than the glass cannon build but

#

As long as it's not too bad i'll take it

quaint girder
#

I did some additional testing

#

5 elements of poison or lightning dealt a decent amount of damage like 4k

hidden creek
#

doubt it will stay relevant when the build is finished tho

#

cuz at that moment when we dumped our stats onto attack and ranged weapon dmg

#

bow attack gonna hit way harder

#

but since we take 0 element dmg, element blast dmg got nothing to scale

#

also on the glass cannon build you still got element blast dmg anyway

quaint girder
#

I thought we just did the same dump on glass cannon build as well

hidden creek
#

yeah but you still want to imbue the glass cannon jades with element no?

#

therefore elemental blast

quaint girder
quaint girder
#

Both builds would be running Ranged DMG, Attack, and DMG to boss

hidden creek
#

yes

#

but imbue

#

the jade element

#

not the elemental blast dmg attribute

quaint girder
#

Ahhhh

#

I got what you're saying both will deal nonscaling element damage regardless

#

But yeah I like Tabbie's build more and more on Justina

fierce light
# hidden creek these 2

@quaint girder Here's my results:

  • Tabbie's build would hit ~11.6% harder than JustNae's on average.
  • Tabbie's build gains a large majority of its damage from forgoing utility attributes.
  • JustNae's would have to have at least 11.6% more uptime to make up for the less damage.
hidden creek
#

huh

#

watt

#

how

#

i think u took the wrong build

quaint girder
#

Has tech options. F dash cancel with aim to break out of freeze without DPS downtime, immediate Dash into Freeze into Second Dash for mobility, Dash as frost pops for easier ignore, Ulti as Frostmeter pops up to put out DoT, Ulti before reload to keep DPS out

quaint girder
#

I think we agreed that the substats are the same with Attack/Ranged DMG/DMG to Boss/Windfall

#

I also dropped the utility Souljade, we just went straight glass cannon

hidden creek
#

ye

fierce light
# quaint girder Are the substats different?

Tabbie's is with:

  • x6 [Windfall]
  • x6 Attack
  • x6 DMG to Bosses
  • x6 Ranged Weapon DMG

JustNae's is with:

  • x6 Attack
  • x6 DMG to Bosses
  • x6 Ranged Weapon DMG
  • x1 Deadeye build rate
  • x5 No Depletion: Weapon Repair Kit
quaint girder
#

Yeah just repunch those numbers let's see the theoreticals

#

Then I can rest easy tonight knowing Tabbie and I created the Bow Deadeye builds

#

Mine is literally playing on hard mode and demands perfect play...at 0 Armor 1HP

#

Truly the DPS experience

crimson cave
#

tbh most of this game is about glass cannons

Tabbie with wf

value recast got better

not as bad as last season

timid stirrup
hidden creek

so i'm not worry about that

quaint girder
#

I'm excited to see Dark's results

timid stirrup
#

Was the value rework in the patch notes?

quaint girder
#

Generally speaking Tabbie, trying both. I think your build with Justina has so much tech and potential

#

Mine felt like a silly meme, 🪿

balmy coral
#

Could go after it when I'm done with Justina ice since I'm wholeheartedly loving it

hidden creek
#

ocd life

#

can't have something useless

quaint girder
#

The movement felt fluid, the tech options for handling freeze and using Ulti and dash to fill in reloading gaps is sublime

#

Tabbie

#

I tried to do that for mysket

#

I created an abomination

summer ridge
#

Showdown is cool

#

I like it

quaint girder
hidden creek

it's all cool and fun when u do theory crafting

quaint girder

You stand in pool to pop Fury/Afterglow

balmy coral

you become semi melee musket its horrible

lmaooo

fierce light

Sorry was doing another enigma

quaint girder
#

no worries Zero

#

when you have time punch in those numnumbers

#

Musket is trickier

hidden creek
#

and idk if it's the same with pvp

#

but in pvp bow and musket does its best at a certain range

turbid agate
#

how do u get the secret ring, Divine army from the sky again?

hidden creek
#

meaning if you're too close to target you lose dmg

quaint girder

So I knew it had potential

Ohhhh

balmy coral

Lmaoooo

#

But this assumes the player is skilled and can keep DPS uptime without taking any hits

fierce light
quaint girder
#

Because they will be effectively at 1 HP

hidden creek
#

yeah it's expected for my build to does less dmg

#

but it's way safer

quaint girder
#

1HP and 0 Armor on Hellscorch

hidden creek
#

the question is how much less dmg it is

#

compare to the glass turret build

quaint girder
#

It looks like it's only 40% less damage

quaint girder
#

Which isn't a lot since both modifiers are 370%+

hidden creek
#

no no i mean total dps

quaint girder
hidden creek
#

i think it's like 11% less dmg yea?

short meadow
fierce light
hidden creek
#

that's... actually better than i expected

quaint girder
#

There it is

fierce light
#

Or Tabbie's does 89.9% of the damage of JustNae's.

quaint girder
#

Actually much better than expected

#

I think my build is probably just for speed runs or daredevil runs

#

Like competing for 1st place times

#

But Tabbie's build solves a lot of issues

#

The biggest issue though is that the ice build only feels good on Justina

fierce light
#

Ah I didn't even get around to testing Musket yet

quaint girder
#

Trying it on others requires me to save F to keep gold focus

quaint girder
#

I'm just happy that Tabbie and I made something actually remotely viable

hidden creek
#

hmm

quaint girder
#

She doesn't have a lot of good options for self freeze

#

She can swap defuse

#

But she chunks her dodge

#

Which might be important for not dying to boss

fierce light
#

I'll probably take out Weaponry Kit Boon and put Desperation on my build.

hidden creek
#

to be fair

#

when i was testing the glass turrret build

quaint girder
#

Temulch is just a meme, I guess he can jump into the air and freeze in the air and drop down

hidden creek
#

i don't get to 1hp that often

hidden creek
#

so it might not be as risky as we thought it is

#

still

quaint girder
hidden creek
#

on stages with burn/poison omen

#

it gonna be hell

quaint girder
#

Does training auto heal at low health?

hidden creek
#

it does

quaint girder
#

Because I think it might or maybe I'm mistaken

#

Yeah we would need to field test it

#

Honestly

fierce light
#

Yeah I think you can toggle that option off too.
-# Automatic healing.

quaint girder
#

I wouldn't mind running enigma when we have full potential with Tabbie and Zero to check viability

hidden creek
# fierce light New result:

actually on this one did you accounted the potential that boost ur attack during surge and after surge end?

hidden creek
#

it only active on my build btw, on naes build it doesn't

#

cuz his build can't trigger element surge

quaint girder
#

If he didn't add those, the ice build make actually surpass the DPS or close the gap

hidden creek
#

also why is there a difference between our boss dmg?

hidden creek
#

we're running the same potential

#

same stats on sj

fierce light
hidden creek
#

ohhhhhhhhh

#

yeah

#

okok

#

thank you sir

#

🥹

#

actually 10% dmg diff is better than what i expected

fierce light
#

Ends up slightly more than doing the attack node

quaint girder
#

Interesting

balmy coral
quaint girder
#

Poor Temmy

hidden creek
#

lol

#

isn't it his F also gold focus

quaint girder
#

Let me check

#

I was under the impression it wasn't

hidden creek
#

i gonna admit i had never touched showdown temulch in my life

quaint girder
#

But it's still a lot of time wasted jumping in the air and doing that whole animation

hidden creek
#

oh yeah the long animation

fierce light
#

I wasn't expecting the multipliers to be over 3 tbh

hidden creek
#

i had no idea what's the dps multiplier collum is about

fierce light
fierce light
hidden creek
#

i still... yknow what nvm

#

😭 i can't math

fierce light
#

Multiplier compared to having a build with no stats

quaint girder
#

It's not too bad

#

His jump in the air gives him a lot of gold focus and the throw is also a gold focus state

#

But it's a pretty long animation

#

He can also Ulti to gold focus

#

But it puts him in melee range

#

Or he could just pop it and not try to get the boss

#

Tessa's ulti is similar

#

Justina's feels much better because you set it and forget it and it's ranged AND Depths Blast scales her Ulti DoT up

balmy coral
#

The thing with temmy is his ult is short range

#

His ult doesn't much affect the boss

#

His F isn't as good as it performs in ranked

hidden creek
#

also let's see if CN gonna cook something good for bow

balmy coral
#

Keeping distance with temmy takes too much time and he's better meele

fierce light
#

Oh i forgot the base +12% Attack from Hero Level 20.

quaint girder
fierce light
#

Still the same ratio

quaint girder
#

Now that's useless due to Yama Scaling

balmy coral
#

Only a few I saw used temmy ngl even last season

quaint girder
#

Temmy and Valda you use to get carried to high ranks

fierce light
#

Hopefully he gets a Curio

balmy coral

balmy coral

from what i understand they're different layers of dmg multiply and i got heavier diminishing return

due to total attack % being much higher than total dmg to boss %

ahhhh i understand now

he got another layer ontop of it

hiii , btw

i don't have that

do you guys still have gold runekeys?

so likely none of showdown vets got ''that many gold keys''

i have 90...

@hidden creek but the problem with peak is

crimson cave

but i started game like 3 weeks ago

cursive fable

you need 2 friends to queue into that

hidden creek
#

that's not a problem for me lol

cursive fable
#

so its not like something spammable by yourself(etc . nitiri ruin)

hidden creek
#

i got premades

#

so i spam it every week

crimson cave
#

but ive been running ruins mostly thats why

cursive fable

@hidden creek requires 3 gold key right?

hidden creek
#

yeah

cursive fable
#

1 per per person per run

hidden creek
#

always 3 gold keys

ya the first 600 fatigue must be spent on peak

imo

hidden creek

oh u're NA

#

make sense

ya

on SEA it's actually quite easy to get a premade peak party

on sea i think you can get it just queue to fill the party

at least ruins ns are popping like every second now

Wdym by gold key drop?

now we got SND and TI

balmy coral
quaint girder
#

Am excited for the next reset

hidden creek
#

🤣

#

my build gon be so close to urs

fierce light
#

It's additive to the other DMG Bonuses

hidden creek
#

huh

#

so what counted as ''dmg bonuses''? not attack and dmg to boss right

balmy coral
fierce light
#

Yall would have the same Total DMG, but JustNae has the additional 2.4% from the Potential and 20% from Desperation.

hidden creek
#

ohhh

#

so it gets added additively ontop of total of attack/dmg to boss/ranged dmg

fierce light
#

Sorta

hidden creek
#

so it's like
''final damage'' addition

fierce light
#

Total Attack multiplies with Total DMG Bonus

hidden creek
#

my extra 60% ice blast dmg doesn't do sht huh

fierce light
#

DPS =
coefficient × (1 + attack bonus) × (1 + dmg bonus)

fierce light
#

Over shadowed by just one Void Destroyer

hidden creek
#

not 2.4

#

but eh it doesn't matters

#

so tiny

turbid agate
#

ok my bad i dont know which wall for the secret ring?

fierce light
#

It doesn't scale in intervals of 1.2%?

turbid agate
#

the dinve sky army or whatever

hidden creek
#

well his total is 198.4 (not counting 20 from desperation), mine is 197, and that's 1.4 difference, according to ur chart
tho idk why my attack is 107% while his is 106% tho lmao

fierce light
hidden creek
#

it should still be the same

zealous perch

Um so what do we do with blue souljades now? Cant deconstruct or use to upgrade so just filling up inventory

hidden creek

to get a random gold/purple jade

#

ty, im blind lol

zealous perch
turbid agate
#

convert and deconstruct for fragments

quaint girder
#

Wait

#

Does Depths Blast scale up the Ice Blast Damage from 6 Ice Wielding?

#

Hmm just considering the balance between Ice-Wielding and lowering accumulation threshold for uptime

summer ridge
balmy coral
#

Do nirriti otherwise

fierce light
#

~41.9% less fragments on average.

#

Managed to Duo it at level 76-77

balmy coral
#

Unless u are extremely good at dodging and difuse until I hit ult

fierce light
#

Yeah can't get hit by certain attacks

balmy coral
#

Charge attack and difuse are basically useless, u only difuse to evade

fierce light
#

Curious how much our attributes are going to jump at lvl 81

balmy coral
#

There are times you'd be force to ult with Justina but with a 2 secs uptime until the boss moves around again

#

Basically useless, so u basically become reliant to F until the boss is down to maximize

summer ridge
#

All jades will be dismantled

hidden creek
#

ha

#

so 3 hits of void destroyer got different dmg coefficient

#

can't proc ice blast by hitting 1st and 2nd hit

#

but can proc with 2nd and 3rd hit

hi tabbie

that justina skin looks very similar to the scarlet bride (Viper)
