ok yeah thats a pretty significant difference

#

do you have a link to that?

#

Oops

gritty briar
#

oh it's only 21 of each

cinder oxide
#

Yeah that’s the one

#

I rmb it wrong

#

How’d I merge 21 and 42 into 41

mortal trellis
#

gg

mortal trellis
#

i guessed like 300 oroberyls over

#

not my 0.6 pulls every 1.5 months!!

#

MAN FUCK

GO..

i am calm

#

ok this guy's such a fraud wtf im going back to trusting my own calculations

cinder oxide
#

Lmaoooooo

#

So it might be even more

mortal trellis
#

im just gonna do it myself next BP

#

i have the patience

I have been staring at this for too long. Anyone know why in the second clip the last hit of last rite's ult is only 259156, instead of 275982 like in the first clip? same everything. something about my rotation is wonky. the first two hits in the ult are the same number too.

three arts susc debuffs, first from ardelia bs, 2nd from xaihi combo passive, third one is deto

#

2nd clip xaihi's combo debuff runs out ICANT

#

just before the last hit of LR ult

proud vector
#

That’s Xaihi combo skill debuff

#

5 seconds

#

It’s a pretty tight fit

terse valley
#

yea first clip he did xaihi ult > xaihi combo
second clip is the other way around

finite oriole
#

ah so xaihi's ult is too long so the 5s ran out?

terse valley
#

combo debuff expired just before lr ult finished

proud vector
terse valley
#

dude i loove thight rotation comps

finite oriole
#

i forgot about this passive

terse valley
#

(i dont it sucks)

finite oriole
#

thanks for the help!

proud vector
#

Realistically, just need to Xaihi combo and LR combo close together

terse valley
#

hard to do if u had to do some dodges

proud vector
#

You shouldn’t be losing too much time to those

terse valley
#

xaihi combo timer will run out

#

thats the problem

#

yeah first clip he dodges only once behind rhodan so his follow up sweep missed last rite
second clip u had to dodge twice

#

not counting the slam dodge at the start

#

2nd clip u dodged backwards thats why u had to dodge the follow up sweep

#

oh also you wanna to the second final strike after the dodge like first clip

outer ermine
#

PerliWaaaaa no ba2 cancel

terse valley
#

if you do correctly you can weave in a full basic string just before xaihi combo timer expires

terse valley
outer ermine
#

not that hard, just let first part hit

terse valley
#

both her 2nd and 3rd basic she sweeps twice right?

outer ermine
#

3rd ur forced to watch ICANT

terse valley
finite oriole
terse valley
#

ive seen some people swap to xaihi for the basic string, dunno how fast that is

#

and if ur from a distance rhodan will rush and do a small slam instead of doing a double sweep iirc?

#

actually thats still a double hit attack

chilly bolt
#

Xaihi is really faster

#

At least 1s

outer ermine
#

PerliFumo xai supremacy

#

i zhould play mobile more

terse valley
#

😭 🧍‍♀️

#

mobile bug shenanigans

outer ermine
#

swap during combo ye lol

terse valley
#

oh you swapped to xaihi as you do combos

outer ermine
proud vector
#

Xaihi basic string is very fast (3~?s) compared to the usual 4 or 5

#

But generally you just don’t need to be controlling LR during her long ass combo attack and ultimate animations, it do be just afking

outer ermine
#

like 2.95

#

fs sucks cuz its not a projectile

chilly bolt
#

2.95s is just until final strike? I remember it's 3s something for the full interval

icy remnant
#

After this we will be controlling TangTang

outer ermine
#

its until u see sp gain, not start of another string

#

since u usually cancel it anyway w combo and whatnot

icy remnant
#

Is Gilberta actually better than Ardelia anyways

outer ermine
#

tc special: depends ICANT

icy remnant
#

I think Gil specifically is only better if starting with Ult yea

terse valley
icy remnant
#

I mean Rhodan doesn't actually mean anything

chilly bolt
outer ermine
#

DaPanEat better cuz u dont have to deal w combo crit bs

terse valley
#

also gilberta ult inflicts nature
so that 100 extra sp to clear the infliction for next rotation
or wait for the infliction expires idk

icy remnant
#

Can Gil even get to Ult fast enough without using her skill

warm galleon
#

Yes

#

Well 20 sec cd, could lower to 17...

terse valley
icy remnant
terse valley
#

basically gilberta in last rite team is to kill the boss in one full rotation

#

if boss no die then u die

chilly bolt
#

Optimize rotation is you leave 1 cryo stack so it turns into corrosion :ceobesmart:

#

Just delay your fs

terse valley
#

JUST

chilly bolt
#

Just use surtr

terse valley
#

xaihi combo timer already thight as is ICANT

chilly bolt
#

Hmm yea

#

Just wait 20s i guess

final plume
#

do you need to level a supports basic atk skill?

terse valley
final plume
terse valley
#

you can invest more into support skills, at least those with buffs/debuffs that scales from skill levels

drifting quest
#

R9 supports is just for those with relevant scalings

#

Can m3 or can farm fodder essence, spare skill mats, tcred etc

final plume
terse valley
#

you dont have to do that

#

but if u want to do support skill masteries then they at least need e4

#

so 80/90

final plume
#

no I'd rather M12 my current M6 main DPS before I consider support masteries but right now im saving the crowns

icy remnant
#

Aight my guy Kyo finally uploaded a video for all WuLing chests

#

Guess I’m going farming today

compact bridge
#

Wulf is 20/20 tho

icy remnant
#

So much resources to 90 is it even worth it

#

80/90 isn’t that much different even counting the amp buff

#

I guess if ur tryna speed run it will matter but if ur a normal person and not a content creator you really won’t notice a difference between an 80 or 90 Xaihi imo

drifting quest
#

Depending on numbers rossi bp weapon could out sundering for chen

#

Lmao

icy remnant
#

It looks like a worse version of the already existing Aspirant

drifting quest
#

Most likely more agility, atk% and potentially some comparable damage%

#

Crit is somewhat wasted but over longer runs could contribute

#

Yeah aspirant is M, BP is L

#

So more agi

icy remnant
#

The attack% should be really small since it’s the one w the passive

#

Should be about the same as Laevs BP

drifting quest
#

Repute is like 30% at r9

#

Which is pretty good

#

Torch is what

#

20% or so

#

Still good

#

As long as the damage% stacks well it's very probable to just run rossi bp wep

icy remnant
#

So L Agility, 20% attack
Some crit
The damage % is honestly also probably similar to Laevs BP

#

Can run numbers based on torch

#

And see how it compares

drifting quest
#

40% or so is where I'm not confident to give it either way

icy remnant
#

The higher base attack is the draw

drifting quest
#

Thats a consideration too yeah

#

Didnt even think about it

icy remnant
#

I just leveled Sundered to 90 so I would prefer if Sundered is better but I’d swap if BP is better

#

Wondering if they’d really release a BP weapon that outperforms Rapid Ascent

#

That would be something

mortal trellis
elfin smelt
#

for yknow more crit hits

icy remnant
#

Crit is just a function of extra damage

proud vector
#

Crits come from the heart

#

Only if you believe in yourself shall you be blessed with the beeg numbah

elfin smelt
proud vector
#

RossiCopium hard to trust in a heart that is frozen

#

All joking aside yeah you can treat crit more like a multiplicative bracket rather than some sort of on hit thing

#

Unless set bonuses come into play that require you to constantly crit

icy remnant
#

One day when we get ridic stacked buffs of every kind we will start wanting crit

proud vector
#

PerliStareYou crit works for hybrids

drifting quest
#

Treating crit as a flat multiplier is just

#

Bad practice

#

Since damage is not an even line

proud vector
#

Hmm

drifting quest
#

Its like a pulse function

#

If you crit on the low parts its less value than critting on the pulses

#

But a flat multiplier will bias all parts equally

proud vector
#

What does the maths look like as you scale samples towards infinity? If we are looking at the lens of DPM only.

mortal trellis
#

its all rng malding at the end of the day
if you have the time and patience then just assume you crit on all of the important hits when doing math

proud vector
#

I can see extra crits during windows of big buffs being disproportionately huge yeah

drifting quest
#

At infinity it is somewhat approximate to a flat multiplier

proud vector
#

hmm

drifting quest
#

But its bad practice because we dont fight on an infinite timeline

proud vector
#

Ok I agree with you, since pure DPM is a limited usefulness statistic

#

Crits definitely matter for kill timelines since you can retry for better odds

drifting quest
#

The 'real' way is monte carlo sims on specific timelines

#

But haha fuck doing that

proud vector
#

RossiCopium yeahhh… Tis a lot of work lol

#

EV simplification is just easier to do

drifting quest
#

EV is still a result of monte carlo if done properly

proud vector
#

Aye, but you can approximate pretty closely with much simpler maths

drifting quest
#

Math isnt even that complex its just computation time and coding it

proud vector
#

PerliDerp doable in head maths I suppose lol

#

The average joe won’t be going anywhere close to that far

drifting quest
#

Im scared if you're doing EV math in head

proud vector
#

…,ok and a piece of paper and a pen >.>

#

…….and maybe a calculator

drifting quest
#

Sigma(x_i) p(x_i)

#

More if you get into bias

mortal trellis
#

every run is a 50/50, it either works or it doesn't

frozen tide
#

Sigma x_x

drifting quest
#

Sampling variance too

mortal trellis
#

just keep gambling

drifting quest
frozen tide
#

X_X

proud vector
#

PerliWaaaaa Tis why I say EV approximations

drifting quest
#

Approximations too is like std dev stuff

proud vector
#

Explode all the nasty stuff like variance with the almighty “ignore wind resistance”

drifting quest
#

I suppose that std dev ranges is getting closer back to monte carlo stuff

#

Since its a normal dist plot

#

Which comes from random sampling

proud vector
#

RossiCopium yeaaaah

#

It’s good to know as it works very differently from like say amp when doing fight specific stuff

drifting quest
#

Im pretty sure other people just do it as a flat mult anyway

frozen tide
#

Crit values start meaning more the higher cr

drifting quest
#

Smh

proud vector
#

But that’s pretty much allllll the way in the deep end of TC

drifting quest
#

They mean arguably more at lower cr

#

Due to higher variance

proud vector
#

^

drifting quest
#

Per point gained at lower cr can balloon expected damage ranges

proud vector
#

Number of attempts buffs your CR as you can discard lower variance runs

frozen tide
#

I meant accounting crit value as an average

proud vector
#

Especially with the short kill times we have now

frozen tide
#

Its weird with low cr

proud vector
#

Crit as an average only works for DPM for a fight that stretches infinitely I guess

#

It becomes a lot more nuisance the shorter the fight

frozen tide
#

Crit as dpm is good enough for higher cr imo

proud vector
#

PerliWaaaaa but that’s harrrrrd to get to in this game ngl

frozen tide
#

But arknights you never have that unless yvonne

drifting quest
#

The higher your cr the easier it is to approximate with less effort

proud vector
#

TangtangSigh truly hyper bored people/speedrun TC

#

Never was a fan of resetting for rng for damage alone, optimising all the factors that are in your control is usually good nuff and more satisfying

#

instead of listing it as 87.76, they remove the decimal par, thus 87

#

so in this case 0.3, .3 got removed = 0

neon cave
floral cradle
frozen tide
#

It is not

#

Rounding down is effectively truncating sure but rounding isn't always down

floral cradle
#

well, true. but it does seem they are rounding down

frozen tide
#

Im not certain but dmg values use truncating i believe and i wouldn't be surprised if shop also did

terse valley
#

bro saw the wrong number im crine

gritty olive
# floral cradle "truncating to removal decimal parts" that's just rounding

i can also truncate 87.76 to its ones digits so that it becomes 80 thinkChamp
its effectively rounding down to the nearest tens but its "different" per se

unlike in damage calculation, even tho you see something like 5000 attack, the game will use the nontruncated number to calculate damage if it has a decimal part like 5000.5 attack

w8 the number again

consider most people dont have multiple aspirants tho

if its better than sundering im so down because sundering is ugly as hell and does not match chen at all

well sundering is better than aspirant

sterile herald

even if its like on par

#

p5 sundering over p0 aspirant no?

or am i thinking of the wrong sword

too many names

gaunt mason

compare the same pot and sundering > aspirant

#

you might be thinking of rapid ascent?

sterile herald
#

i am thinking of rapid ascent.

#

thanks

gaunt mason

p5 sundering is roughly equal to p2 ascent

sundering always wins if you on field chen

sterile herald

p5 sundering > p5 ascent if shes on field???

did not know that

should be yeah

Flat mult then

gaunt mason
#

oops

icy remnant
#

Then it shouldn’t be that hard

drifting quest
#

Ev would be you made a distribution

#

And calced from that

icy remnant
#

Pretty sure you get like 90% Ult damage from aspirant let me check

gaunt mason
#

ok wait i'll do the distr

icy remnant
#

Aspirant is 33.6% for 3 stacks

gaunt mason
#

but atp i might as well monte carlo it

icy remnant
#

So 100%

#

So this weapon has a very real chance of beating sundering

summer flicker
gaunt mason
#

better base stats and aspirant doesnt give atk

icy remnant
#

Ye

#

Aspirant gives 44.8% Ult dmg + 100% dmg on Ult at 3 stacks

drifting quest
smoky quarry
#

Operators' signatures would go so hard if we could afford them

That would defeat the point of non sig dps weapons

gaunt mason

it's ok let's just assume infinite timelines

now that i look at it again bp needs like 40-50 ish ult% with a flat crit multi

sterile herald
#

what if it goes to like

#

4 stacks with long duration

#

gg

gaunt mason
#

hopefully

#

my sundering is maxed but it's so ugly

i’m saying

if bp has like 50% ult damage total i'm switching

i’m saying!

flourite combo cd is ass so you're probably don't want it anyway

and frontier set

#

Frontier set brings it to 34s base
P5 reduces c/d every time Nature or Cryo affliction is applied w/ a cap of 1s every second

so maybe tryhard maxing HL on Fluorite can get her comboskill down to once every like 28s

it that even worth

her ult has basically the same effect

i really feel like some intern at hg fucked up here

can you even have her ult up on every other rotation?

was she better in cbt2?

i heard some ops got nerfed compared to back then

they nerfed her damage but gave her more utility

drifting quest

p5 v p5 bp is looking somewhat promising

sterile herald
#

p5 bp as f2p 😓

drifting quest
#

lmao

glass birch
#

rossi's sig is likely gonna be something like boosts heat dmg% when you crit

daring dove
glass birch
#

like LR, Yvonne, Lae, etc

#

So it'd be a personal buff

#

And judging by how her kit is designed, it's completely about build up to her Ult

daring dove
glass birch
#

so it's highly likely her Sig will be "On crit, gain a stack of x% Heat DMG%. Stacks up to Y"

daring dove
#

So she still has an element of support

glass birch
#

She's not a support lol

#

her whole kit just builds off itself

daring dove
glass birch
#

Thats the only reason she's a guard

#

And that's also the only thing that makes her a guard

daring dove
glass birch
daring dove
#

I agree she's likely to be a main DPS still but we shouldn't ignore the obvious.

#

Most guards have a level of support

glass birch
#

Her BS requires 1 instance of Vuln to get the full effect and her combo skill cant be used without atleast 1 vuln stack

#

And if we compare her to other guards, she's a shitty chen kekzu 2 operators for the price of 1 5 star.

drifting quest
#

both rossi and tt sigs should be personal buffs only

#

if you trust the datamine then ||fracture implies this even more||

glass birch

Rossi cant function on her own is kinda weird

she can, but slower

Gotta pull to know

drifting quest
#

really just depends on rossi mults

daring dove
# drifting quest most greedy dps dont function well alone

Laevatain does pretty well by herself if you manage her resources well an build her ult gain. That said I don't really think Ult gain Laevatain was intended by the developers. It's most of a community build. But yeah most aren't too useful by themselves. Best seem to be Laevatain & Perlica?

drifting quest
#

and ult cost

drifting quest
warped sorrel
#

It would be cool if she turn out to have a very fast rotation

drifting quest
#

i was only considering it in the scope of pure 1 unit solo

#

in which laev also struggles

edgy crater
drifting quest
#

perlica is not a greedy dps so i would not have considered her

warped sorrel
#

bruh

#

What is her team?

drifting quest
#

rossi?

warped sorrel
#

rossi chen wolfgard endmin?

drifting quest
#

there's a ton of rossi hypotheticals

#

i have the least personal confidence in hybrid setups

#

from a tc perspective

warped sorrel
#

understandable

#

i love to see hybrid team

#

Hope it works
Hybrid team always suck idk why

#

In other game

gaunt mason
#

you can't buff both at the same time

glass birch
#

Rossi, Wulf, Gil, Endmin is a decent one

drifting quest
#

rossi arts hyper
rossi dual/triple dps
rossi laev (this one might be worse actually)
rossi shatter
rossi phys enabler (this one also stinks)
rossi hybrid

gaunt mason
#

so you end up with a team that does meh damage using two damage types

glass birch
#

lol

gaunt mason
drifting quest
#

honestly everything that isnt arts hyper or arts dual/triple dps is kinda

#

cope tier

#

based on current info

glass birch
#

Just slap in a crush unit like Endmin

gaunt mason
#

oh my god you know what i mean

glass birch
#

so you can wipe vuln

gaunt mason
#

you can't possibly buff two damage types to the same extent as you can buff one damage type

#

and you end up with meh damage on both instead of really good damage on one

daring dove
brisk pecan
#

build physical damage and think of the ult as just +1 infliction 😔

warped sorrel
#

Rossi is very single target right?

gaunt mason
#

i don't think buffing rossi's phys damage will be productive

daring dove
brisk pecan
#

wouldn't that buff her dot damage

#

like dot is still ehh but

warped sorrel
#

I dont think pog and rossi would be good together

daring dove
gaunt mason
#

might as well run endmin with repute or something atp

#

both sound like shit options

hollow swan
#

ive been thinking about picking up that sword before i goes away for Endmin

gaunt mason
#

don't get it

daring dove
gaunt mason
#

depending on how much combustion buffs her you might just run wulf + ake instead of that

#

it's all hypotheticals though just wait for her release

daring dove
edgy crater
hollow swan
#

that seems like a lot of damage for Ardelia to be providing. her sus is not that big.

warped sorrel
#

2 whole rotation for a single breach?

terse valley
#

she may or may not want a vuln consumer
she may or may not have a strong enough ult that she wants three arts buffers instead
she may or may not want combustion for her skills

all of these are hard to tell unless we know her numbers and her damage distribution

gaunt mason
daring dove
#

An that's free

terse valley
#

both her showcase and her BP sword tells us that her main damage is from ult, that's all the clue we got

hollow swan
#

im not a math wiz but that doesn't make sense to me. how does her debuff provide so much?

daring dove
#

So if it says 24% you're dealing 24% more damage to the enemy with arts attacks.

#

If it says 20% you're dealing 20%.

gaunt mason
#

it's damage taken which rossi also provides

#

plug it into any damage calc and you'll see that it's not a flat 24% increase in damage when diluted

hollow swan
#

yo 8/8? who has that

gaunt mason
#

whales

terse valley
#

p5 ardelia weapon is crazy

daring dove
#

If we where reaching numbers like 200-300% it's worth having that conversation.

#

But when we're talking 20-100% you can just call it a directly damage buff.

hollow swan
#

yea id agree with that. the dmg taken multi is true. and it im pretty sure it's seperated from susceptibility

daring dove
#

It is.

#

That's why Ardelia is pretty much 40/56% damage buff to enemies depending on investment. I think if you're strictly PO/P0 it might be a bit less like 38%.

#

But lots of F2P's have her P1/P0 as well at which point she'd be 46% roughly.

drifting quest
#

what

glass birch
hollow swan
#

everyone should have her weapon right

pure spoke
#

Eyja meta?

daring dove
terse valley
#

God I hate that gif so much

daring dove
pure spoke
#

Lol why

glass birch
#

Then P1 adds 8% so if it's 20 and 16 at P0/P0 M3 then it becomes what? 44%?

hollow swan
#

thats more my level. still a bigger buff than i expected.

#

she is kinda cracked

daring dove
drifting quest
#

why are we adding non additive buffs

#

am i missing something

daring dove
#

For Ardelia?

gaunt mason
#

i don't follow your logic at all PerliDerp

drifting quest
#

yes

glass birch
#

was just looking at ardelia by herself rn

hollow swan
#

oh yeah her P1 is really good i forgot i actually have her at P2

daring dove
daring dove
hollow swan
#

they're right technically it would be dmg taken x susceptibility

twilit quail
#

It isnt even "technically'

#

the entire game

#

is about multiplicative brackets

#

if you lose sight of this you are just completely deranged

#

the fact that this discussion is being entertained at all

#

is incredibly unwell

drifting quest
#

yeah

hollow swan
#

the difference between adding and multiplying in thsi case is liek 1%

drifting quest
#

i didnt know if i was missing something but if we are just adding multiplicative buffs

#

this chat is kinda doomed

drifting quest
twilit quail
#

it's a shame that things never work that way in any actual scenario

#

it's a shame

#

THERE ARE TEN OTHER BRACKETS

#

TO MULTIPLY BY

#

unbelievable

daring dove
#

This is getting silly here it's like we're arguing over the meaning of words an not thje actual value she buffs teams damage by.

hollow swan
#

alright chief how about you spell it out then?

twilit quail
#

you are the one

#

failing to grasp the actual value

#

of what the unit applies

#

because you are being reductive

daring dove
twilit quail
#

it's literally right there

#

up there

glass birch
#

PerliDerp Adding them just makes things easier to compare within a single kit. yeah they're multiplicative which just means the effects are higher than presumed.

Lae BASEQ1; 766
+16% Suscept; 888
+16% Suscept and 12% dmg taken; 995

daring dove
#

No you're arguing definitions with me, rather than arguing how much Ardelia buffs teams damage. What a completely irrelevant conversation.

twilit quail
#

you have the completely wrong approach

#

you just dont realise it

#

you think this is semantics

#

it isnt

#

you are fundamentally failing to grasp the mathematics

daring dove
#

Ok buddy, I'm not interested if you just want to argue terms rather than values.

hollow swan
#

we don't even have Rossi's number yet

warped sorrel
#

isnt she 14?

glass birch
#

???

terse valley
#

alright let's not go there

hollow swan
#

lol bruh

drifting quest
#

ok even if we consider just ardelia alone

#

no other buff sources

#

16% + 20% additive is 36%
16% x 20% multiplicative is 39.2%

#

3.2% is a decent chunk

#

make it 28% instead and the gap is now 8%

#

its so dumb to be adding multiplicative values in general

#

especially in a theorycrafting channel

warped sorrel
#

im confuse

hollow swan
#

fair enough

drifting quest
#

the whole point of endfield minmax is hitting as many multiplicative zones as possible

warped sorrel
#

so art sus is not add but maltiply?

drifting quest
#

because of how bonkers the scaling gets

hollow swan
#

i just want to say i prefeced by entrance in to the conversation with "im not a math wiz"

glass birch
frozen tide
#

Absolute cinema add all the multipliers together

drifting quest
#

anything of the same time = adds

glass birch
#

It's a different bracket

drifting quest
#

anything of different type = multiply

warped sorrel
#

this change everything

drifting quest
#

e.g. 20% arts suscept, 16% heat suscept, 30% arts damage dealt

if dealing heat damage then it is (20+16)% suscept, 30% damage dealt

if dealing non heat damage it is just 20% suscept and 30% damage dealt

# drifting quest anything of different type = multiply

OK, but what does that have to do with anything I said. I gave general value ranges of how much she'll increase team damage by. The actual value is entirely dependant on too many factors. We don't need a whole PHD on how I maybe a few % off based on 27000 different factors.

drifting quest
# warped sorrel is the doc in the pin?

holymolly

#

this changes everything

daring dove
#

You're acting like saying Ardelia can increase a teams damage by 40-56% (assuming you keep uptime) is an invalidate statement when it clearly isn't.

#

I never once gave a definite value.

frozen tide
#

Could you forward that msg

#

That ard increases dmg by 40-56

drifting quest
# daring dove OK, but what does that have to do with anything I said. I gave general value ran...

#theorycrafting message
'She doesn't provide additive buffs'
idk where this idea came from it's entirely misleading because we were never discussing additive buffs

#theorycrafting message
it's not 44% because you're doing 16% + 28% when these are not additive with each other
1.16 x 1.28 = 1.4848 (48.48%)

Whats ardelia's max buff potential?
24% suscept and 28% damage taken at P1/P5 M3? so like 58%

drifting quest

if i misinterpreted something you said by all means i apologise

glass birch
#

How effective is breach at 4/4 vuln again?

drifting quest
#

but based on my own (and likely many others here) interpretation what you are saying is not correct

it might not matter to you but it does for us who are trying to keep things factual within the theorycrafting channel

im not trying to be hostile or dismissive or in any way push you away, just trying to correct things that are wrong (and what we're suggesting biases you original point (within reason) anyway

It's just a pointless conversation to be honest. I gave a general idea of how much Ardelia can buff team damage by.

Ight so if base Breach for 4/4 Vuln w/ pog at 133 AI; what's the total effectiveness of breach?
1 + 24 x (1+ 2x133 / 133 +300)?

ardelia doesnt provide additive buffs
