If you like my videos, you can support the channel here: www.buymeacoffee.com/akisherceg 🍕 Thank you! :) I often read and saw that people are a bit confused about the way Chaotic Focus works with the Knight-Enchanter's Barrier. First off, Fire Mine does work with your Barrier. Even from your Fade Shield generated Barrier. What does not work is the upgraded Fire Mine(upgraded with Flaming Array). That will not take away a portion of your Barrier to fuel your spells, therefore the damage bonus will not be applied. The Searing Glyph upgrade however does work and it works extremely well. You can see the examples here: 1:35 Generating Barrier with damage, then using that Barrier to fuel Fire Mine 2:32 Putting up normal Barrier then using it to fuel Fire Mine. And here is the example of the Flaming Array not working with Chaotic Focus: 12:24. I hope this helps! :)
@BunnyHoper72 жыл бұрын
Sadly, flaming array has quite a few bugs... Luckily, the "bugs be gone" mod fixes a couple of these, including this issue with chaotic focus. The lack of flanking dmg bonus however is still a prevalent issue (though at least you're not doing 1 dmg anymore) afaik, as well as big enemies not triggering the mines sometimes.

Fun builds. Think I liked the trapper build the most. Considering how often you end up surrounded with frozen enemies though, I think the build could use a detonator of some kind to top off that burst damage. Energy barrage with energy storm would synergies with static cage. If you’re looking to capitalize further on using barrier for damage fuel, immolate would be a great option too, especially if you’re looking for big numbers. Or if you’re looking to bring back a little more survivability, mind blast could provide barrier boost (though it hardly needs it). Anyhow, liked seeing your KEs

I played 60 hours of this game at least (on my warrior) and barely scratched the surface of it (yet I really enjoyed my time playing the game). Now I’m thinking of going back to the game, this time as a mage (coz of Knight-enchanter spec thst really picks my interest thabks to it’s melee & magic hybrid gameplay). PS! In my first play session as a warrior, I had found 2-3 heavy-armor looking mage armor in the game. Yes; actually, with no mods etc. these armor looked like heavy armor by default. I ofcourse equipped em on my characters. I just hope I can retrace my steps again and get those armor back, this time for my main character. Anyways, thx again and thumbs-up!

@AKisHerceg9 ай бұрын
The main things you need to consider with Trials, is that you will have some difficulty spikes in most battles. This is because of the Walk Softly trial and Even Ground. Even ground will place everyone at your level, so you can never over level. This is pretty hard if you plan to farm for experience. Walk Softly is even worse. Enemies can have all kinds of ridiculous defenses like extremely massive guard or rejuvenating Barrier. With this trial on, you must use Dispel for mages with Rejuvenating Barrier! Guard Smasher passive is also a must have for your warrior party members. Trials are no joke, so if you are having a hard time, that is because they are designed that way. :)

Here is a comment I wrote to someone who also had a similar question: "Equipment is only relevant if we are talking about damage, so in this case it's mostly just two builds. For equipment, I recommend you check out my Frost/Fire Crusader build video. You will find detailed descriptions on all pieces and on where to find them. That equipment list there works well for all of these builds, but only really needed for the Frost/Fire Crusader and the Trap-Enchanter. The other builds work, regardless of equipment - evidenced by the fact that I literally just threw on them whatever looked good or whatever I found in my inventory laying around. " So basically, these builds work(except the two that depends on damage) regardless of equipment. As I said, you can check out my Frost/Fire Crusader video about the detailed description on the schematics and on where to find them. But here is the quick list for the best(or my personal favorite) mage gear schematics: Superior Battlemage Armor schematics with the Battlemage Armor arms and legs - Hissing Wastes Merchant with the Short List perk Superior Battlemage Cowl or if you go for crit damage then the Mask of the Grand Duchess - Avvar Merchant in the JoH dlc and the mask is a reward if you publicly expose Florianne The Blade of Tidarion schematics - Reward for the War Table quest "Stop the war between Nevarra and Teviner" if you complete it with Josephine and you have the Trespasser dlc. :)

Quick questions: Are you planning to do a 5 overpowered video for the five remaining specializations? Could you put a checkmark or numbers to indicate which skills you picked? On the phone it's difficult to tell what's highlighted. Are the items, armor and faded-touched materials always the same? Thanks in advance.
@AKisHerceg2 жыл бұрын
Not sure yet. It is hard to create 5 overpowered build for each spec, because some of the specs are really not that powerful. Like the Templar for example. I don't think I could come up with 5 build that I would classify as overpowered. Sure you can play around with WoH+Spell Purge, but that is just one build. What about the other 4, right? Still, I don't know maybe I could, haha. Not sure yet. :) Masterworks and equipment are always up to personal choice. Everything works with these builds, but there are items/fade-touched materials which can make them god-like. For example, the TrapEnchanter or the Frost/Fire Crusader are especially powerful with Walking Bomb or Targets Explode masterwork on their items. The Sword-Knight is even more durable if you pick Walking Fortress or Fade Cloak as your masterwork. The Barrier/Blaster can benefit greatly from the Sigil of Lyrium and it can use a fully upgraded Regeneration Potion with the aoe heal effect and the Healing Mist grenade to be the most dedicated support build. So as I said, they have their "best in slot" items and masterworks, but I created these build in a way where they can work with anything. :)

In terms of damage, How the higuest damage ke build here (which i believe to be the frost fire crusader) is compared to your rift mage build?
@AKisHerceg3 жыл бұрын
Actually, I think the highest damage(crowd damage) belongs the Trapper. But to answer your question: as I always say, all mage spec has the same potential for damage and cc. KE simply solves the survivability problem as well. Rift mage is better at cc, and the Necro has a slight edge with damage because they can detonate the Walking Bomb masterworks. :)

How do you increase the DPS of the spirit blade?
@AKisHerceg Жыл бұрын
You increase it by charging it up with spells. Energy Barrage is the best. Other than that, only with the Sigil of the Arcane Horror(+10%), but that reduces every other damage by 50%.

Apparently winter stillness and combat clarity dont stack Was wondering if neither also stacks with rejuvenating barrier, cause if not then both winter stillness and rejuvenating barrier becomes useless Also, does static charge stop interrupts and grabs while mid cast?

nice builds showing equipement to the builds would have been nice , since different build require different equipement i have a question for a dps mage is building items with dex is better than magic and focusing on crit chance / crit dmg since now we have cloth that add dex so battle mage armor can reach 46/47 dex
@AKisHerceg3 жыл бұрын
Equipment is only relevant if we are talking about damage, so in this case it's mostly just two builds. For equipment, I recommend you check out my Frost/Fire Crusader build video. You will find detailed descriptions on all pieces and on where to find them. That equipment list works well for all of these builds, but only really needed for the Frost/Fire Crusader and the Trap-Enchanter. The other builds work, regardless of equipment - evidenced by the fact that I literally just threw on them whatever looked good or whatever I found in my inventory laying around. To your question: depends. I prefer using Dex with Rogues, since they get a direct Attack bonus as well as Critical Damage. With Mages, you usually use Crit Damage if you go with the Ring of Doubt. For example Fire Mines with the Flaming Array upgrade can produce some insane crit damage if you are dropping them on the ground from Stealth. Personally, I go for Magic to boost my attack(and Barrier Damage) and some Crit Chance to have some crits every now and then(Willpower also works, but then you get Magic Resistance instead of Barrier Damage bonus). I usually don't go higher than 30-35% crit chance though, but Magic? I go as high as I can, up to 110 or higher if possible with my equipment and build. :)

@AKisHerceg9 ай бұрын
@@carmonaprime6297 Generation is based on your damage, so you need to deal more damage for it to generate faster. This is why high damage KEs don't even need the Barrier spell. Just generate them with casting offensive spells(like the Frost-Fire Crusader build I made - I have a 30 min build video about it). Decay speed can be lessened with the Energetic Defense and the Knight-Protector passives. And then of course there is Fade Cloak which makes Barrier redundant, because with a melee focused build, you can have it last longer than its cooldown(i.e. Sword-Knight build).

@AKisHerceg3 жыл бұрын
Yes, but don’t be reckless. :) The Trapper is a bit more tactical, because of the delay when it comes to explosions(plus Fire Mine actually consumes almost half of your Barrier), so watch your Barrier. In terms of damage on Bosses though… the Trapper can actually deal more damage on them than the Crusader.

Spirit Blade is considered a spell. That is why it works so well for the Sword-Knight to use Fade Cloak indefinitely or with the Barrier/Blaster to put up Barrier constantly. With each swing with the Clean Burn passive from the Inferno tree, it will reduce your cooldowns with 1 sec. :)

@@kingkushezio2581 Ah, I see! The icon that says "Alt" above it, right? The symbol that looks similar to the Stonefist skill? That is your "Call Mount" skill in the main game. In the Trespasser dlc it changes into something called "Anchor Discharge". You have no mounts in that dlc anymore, and your anchor is acting up, giving you a new skill that you can use with the same button which would call your horse normally. First, this skill gives you brief invulnerability and illuminates dark areas, then it starts to hurt enemies when you activate it, and at the end of the dlc, it turns into a ticking time bomb that you have to release whenever your focus is fully charged, otherwise you will explode. It's not a mod, it's part of the Trespasser dlc. :)
