Overpowering the cyclops in Nightmare. Build details at the end.

Damn bro . Genius glass canon build , korfu engraving with the faulx engraving and Atlantis engraving . I’m guessing this is one of your loadouts for these fights particularly

[@cmm05089]

yes for daily driver I usually switch out the korfu engraving and add in some resistances so I avoid being killed by random chickens and boars lol

[@dewd9327]

add in armor penetration + nemean lion set bonus and you'll get more damage

[@cmm05089]

Thanks! Yes - the nemean lion engraving only goes on the waist, so I could trade off the +20% warrior dmg I have there for +25% crit dmg at full health for a bit more damage. My warrior damage bonus would drop from +720% to +700%, but crit dmg at full health would go up to +700% from +675, so it should a small gain. The armor penetration only goes on the melee weapons, so I would need to replace either the falx of olympus or hunter dmg conversion engraving. I have not done a lot of testing to compare those - I think they all give roughly the same dmg, but I could try it. Armor penetration I think depends a bit on the enemy you are hitting, so maybe it is more beneficial on these bosses (presumably they have heavy armor)?

​@@cmm05089 idk if you have typhon's axe but its another overpowered weapon, probably the only other op weapon in the helix store other than the bighorn bow. It has 20 crit chance at full health on it and 200 crit damage when using fire attacks so using that in place of a the second sword and adding the falx engraving on it, putting armor pen on the left melee slot sword and the hunter dmg conversion on the bow would allow you to put 50 crit damage on the helmet and then use the nemean lion set engraving on the waist which will result in 95% crit chance and 900% crit damage. Downside is you need to have the fire ability on your wheel but that isn't really a problem, you also need to wait a full fire cycle for the crit chance with fire attacks to start working but you can just bypass that by taking out a torch and switching back to your weapon which makes it start working immediately. You just need to reactivate fire to keep it active unless you are on a horse or a ship because then the crit damage does not wear off until you dismount or disembark for some reason. Also armor pen works on all enemies even civilians so its nearly as good as the falx engraving.

How do u obtain those armors/wpns with those stats bonus?

[@cmm05089]

the bow is from the helix store, it is 150 credits (but the game gives you 200 after you finish the intro). everything else is from looting - some random, some from reloading a save in front of a blacksmith. When looting, I keep anything with warrior dmg, crit chance/dmg, crit chance/dmg at full health, dmg with weapon type, and any resistances (altho this build didn't use any resistances, this is a 'don't get hit' build). Save b4 you talk to a blacksmith (best if you have levell3d up twice since last visiting that blacksmith, so they have 2 new inventories), then you can check out his items twice (should be different inventories when you exit and talk to him again), reload the save if u didn't see what u want, repeat. That can take a couple hours to get a specific item tho... For the engravings u put on, they come from legendary items, or solving the riddles, or leveling up the engravings

@@cmm05089 thnx a lot dude :) I will try to get some

[@ljin8550]

I Have not nearly to 1000 hours but how the hell you have nearly 5 millions of ressources and how do you have over 300k of warrior damage I need to know I have like 89k at best

[@cmm05089]

That game is 4 (I think?) stacked NG+ so a lot of looting to get materials, especially the atlantis DLC gives tons of resources and at that point there is nothing left to spend them on. To max out your warrior damage, the big drivers are the champion/korfu engraving (on my boots) - it says +100% damage, but it is really +200% each for hunter/warrior/assassin, and the 50% hunter damage conversion (on right sword) adds at least another +100% warrior & assassin by converting that bonus. Then the falx of olympus engraving (on the other sword) gives another +100% and bighorn bow gives +60% warrior dmg. Just that bow and those 3 engravings give you over +400% warrior damage. Get your crit chance and crit dmg up and then you are doing 3-6x times that damage almost every hit

How to get xp so fast?

[@cmm05089]

There isn't any really fast way, I have more than 1000 hours in the game over the 5 years its been out. The fastest way to get xp is to visit the message boards in various regions and accept all the non-timed contracts, then do the main quests and gold side quests, doing any conquest battles that pop up. And get the xp boost from the helix store for +50% xp gains if u don't mind spending a couple bucks of real $

[@Zack-vi7is]

Yeah like he said there's no real way to farm but to add on to his suggestion look for quests that show an XP symbol with a gold background. Those reward the most XP. Conquest battles are probably the most efficient ways of gaining XP when they pop up but they're not quite as efficient if you go through the trouble of triggering the conquest battle yourself.

[@stefanpfadt4353]

Waste of attributes! Too many require full health but this build is NOT at 100% health so you have at least 3 completely unnecessary attributes....better re-roll 😅

[@cmm05089]

The "Full Health" engravings don't require 100% Health - just that you are at your max available health. So they apply here, even though my "Full Health" is only 25%. If you doubt that, you can try it yourself - it is easy to see the difference in damage and in crit hits. I get crit hits (yellow damage numbers) every time - due to the 100% crit at full health. But if I take any damage, then my crit rate drops and I get a bunch of non-crit hits (white damage numbers) doing way less damage. I could probably show that in a vid if there is interest. Or search the reddit aco sub or T7PDM vids - this is pretty well explained in those forums.
