BDO Giants - Marni, Awakening Nova 310AP, 38801 yellow scroll, agris on gehaku

No coin was used. Agris was used on gehaku. I tried to limit myself to only gehaku but i accidentally killed a few of his spawns as well. Overall agris gave me around 500 additional trash loot.
Basic combo goes like that.
Start with WQ or WRMB or SHIFTLMB.
Use a big aoe with dp SHRED (if possible) like SHIFTQ or SHIFTQ or brutal or SHIFTRMB or SLMB.
Finish with Q or brutal or SLMB or WF or quoratums earth.
Apart from that use F whenever you can. Use SHIFT WSAD and SQ to reposition. Once you know which skills do what it's easy.
General rules when grinding this spot. Always do an event pack twice, in some rare cases you can do one pack three times but only if it doesn't kill your efficiency. For example if you create a 5s downtime then there's no point.
With an elvia buff try to wait for event mobs' loot, they drop more than normal mobs. Without an elvia buff there's no need to wait, you'll do a pack twice anyway which allows you to pick up all the loot naturally. You should probably stick to only one rift when grinding this spot. That said many rotations have packs outside of the rift range, and not all rotations have enough mobs to prevent overclearing. In that case a good option is doing two rifts (possible on rotations 1, 2, 3, 4) or extending a rift with one-two packs from a different rift. After a respawn time buff it's way easier to spawn rift bosses, PA did a good job with that one, I used to get 0-1, now I get 3-4/h.
Marni is worse than a normal rotation, not by much though.
I'm using seleth mainhand, it's better than pen bs. Tet manos ruby ring is a good alternative but can potentially make you lose brackets, it's a better option for succ classes though.
I didn't use corrupted crystals, I'm not sure why, I must have made a big mistake when setting up my crystals. Happens, that said since it's marni I doubt it would have changed much.
Rhutums video should be next, after that it's sycraia time. I gave up on hexe video, that spot is irrelevant for now (sadly) and makes my pc lag, not fun. About all the new marni realms, I'll try to hold on with releasing videos about them for a while, there's a risk of PA nerfing them to the ground like they did with orcs, that wouldn't be fun.

God, I love you! That is all Ty for posting and excited to see you obliterate Ulukita when it comes out! If you ever wanna try it out in KR let me know (:

[@PawelNovaBDO]

Thank you, I'll patiently wait for the global release, hoping that it will come soon. Tungrad ruins look very promising so far, city of the dead not so much. But for all we know PA might change it on the global release like they usually do with new content.

[@kfcjunkie1]

Nice video. I was curious. I noticed you sometimes. Left mobs behind and you never wait for pets to loot. Does that result in higher trashloot than if you would clear all mobs of a pack and wait for pets to loot? Its been a question ive had for a while and never knew what it optimal.

[@PawelNovaBDO]

Depends on the situation. Usually it's better to just keep going as long as you can kill the mobs in less than 2s. If it takes longer to kill or if the mobs you just killed have way better loot tables then it's better to stay and wait, an example would be event mobs here or fogans' violents. If you have 5+ loot on the ground it's better to wait unless you're delaying a better mob's loot then it's better to go next.

Great test

Hello. Thanks for the video

[@emmandiaz3495]

Timepieced a nova this season after playing succ woosa, im really enjoying it i think imma switch my main to nova when i get enough inventory slots on her haha

[@DelusionalShowman]

I always amaze by your skills management. Here i am on a second month as Nova and still have cd management issue 😂 Anyway how to set display settings as yours? I tried on lowest but i think its different than yours

[@PawelNovaBDO]

imgur.com/a/053SdTi gamma contrast and opacity can make a difference too, I change them a lot so I can't tell you what they were in the video

[@turdeGari]

crazy video man! absolutely insane good job on that :D btw u dont use human dmg on addons - why?

[@PawelNovaBDO]

I quite literally forgot about them, happens. Just goes to show how little one needs to be almost overclearing the marni.

[@saberix3355]

what is that weapon for mainhand and why are you using it? instead of BS/godyr?

[@PawelNovaBDO]

It's called seleth. It's better than blackstar.

[@bratty6194]

🎉🎉

[@TalosSeptim]

What settings do you play on? Asking for a friend.

[@PawelNovaBDO]

Usually those imgur.com/a/053SdTi I change contrast, gamma and opacity if needed.

[@belzeva]

What main weapon did you use? i don't recognise it

[@PawelNovaBDO]

It's called seleth. The same advantages as ain. You lose 30-40 accuracy, you get 17-18 human dmg. Worth it if you're looking for cheap human dmg upgrades. A good alternative for succ classes is tet manos ruby ring, you lose more AP but at least you're not paying with accuracy.

[@yakuza0321]

Do you miss without jin vipers because of seleth weapon?

[@PawelNovaBDO]

I think I do. There's not many alternatives in crystals though, either 2 or 3 human dmg, and since I already have 126, it doesn't make a big difference.

insane, i want create nova ;P

[@imsmile3119]

Which main hand did you use?

[@PawelNovaBDO]

This is seleth mainhand, I've written a bit more about it in the description. Basically as long as you hit the monster ap cap it's better than pen bs.

[@lanas4227]

You didn't get the earrings. So unlucky.

[@sinrin2070]

dp or ap cup using on belt? also rings !

[@PawelNovaBDO]

DR cup on belt, 6dr is a lot, 3ap isn't that much, although with the new dehkia zones even 3ap can make a noticable difference. As for rings always crit cups in pve and hp cups in pvp.

[@sinrin2070]

Thanks for the reply, also I want to know on the artifact is Deathblow way better than Vicious Shadows on awaken nova?@@PawelNovaBDO

[@PawelNovaBDO]

Yes it is. Most of nova skills are 88% crit rate, with t3 addon, which could be up for 7/12s at most, it's 98% crit rate (though in that 5s you cannot avoid having 68% for at least a second unless you put t2 crit rate on every single skill in the kit, I tried having it on 4 skills and still couldn't avoid the crit rate addon downtime). Some skills are 100% but those aren't the big dmg skills in pve apart from accel starscall (SHIFT LMB). Main dmg always comes from F WQ SLMB and SHIFTQ, they're not 100% crit rate. Garmoth calculator assumes that in best case scenario (100% back attack spot, not realistic) vs will give you ~4% more dmg on 100% crit skills and 4% less dmg on 88% skills. Since 88% skills are a majority of the kit we're losing dmg. Unless we're doing a spot where we only need 7s to kill enemies and then we can afford to wait the next 5s (gyfins maybe?). Having a 68% crit rate skills ends up in us losing 17% dmg. There's also the fact that not using DB introduces rng element in our grind. If it's a dps spot where we don't care about aggro and we can time our downtime then VS has an advantage. However the moment we care about aggro or want to eliminate rng DB is much better.

[@Seqo2123]

Hey pawel whats the ideal crystals here ? which crystal do you remove for corrupted magic crystals

[@PawelNovaBDO]

Best Page is Ahkrads + Olucas + Corrupted + Girins + whatever human dmg you can get as long as you're over the ap cap of 856. I recommend using garmothcom to check how much human dmg you can squeeze in, on db classes it's hard to get more than 140, no db classes can get to 160+. Don't forget about human dmg addons, I recommend t3 but it's fine to have at least one t2 as a back up. Depending on your gear you will be using different crystals. I recommend prioritizing rbf vipers, rbf carmae/addis. After that you're only left with red spirit and carnage which aren't as efficient and will probably get you below 856 ap cap. Luckily enough accuracy requirements are very low for giants, you're fine with ~820 so no need for vipers and elkarrs in most builds.

Pawel, nova guide please.

[@PawelNovaBDO]

There's a bit of written guide in nova discord that I helped in writing but as of now it's still unpublished. I'll try asking that dc if they're willing to release it any time soon. For now if you have any specific questions you can dm me on dc. I'm on most classes discords with the nick pawelnova.
