Best Alternatives to the Black Death Scorpion! (7) Why it is so Powerful! (90% damage) - Neverwinter

[@ZraNSxHC]

was literally just killing the beholder on tannis, some guy had a blink dog, I have a panther, 100% uptime because the blink dog does his thing right away and panther delays it, completely viable in group content

[@ansfridaeyowulfsdottir8095]

Companion AI stands for Absolutely Imbecilic. Minsc is one of the worst, he constantly TELEPORTS to stand next to you, instead of kicking Evil's butt for Goodness with his bigger sword! {:o:O:}

[@GastNdorf]

Blaspheme assassin has a skill which teleports her in the back of the mobs regularly... as a solo player you pretty much always have the agro and ennemies turn towards you, giving you a reliable combat advantage. There are probably more with such a skill

[@nexeus7302]

Just so you know guys, any Advanced Dungeon has a chance to drop this companion. Recently did LoMM because one guy from our alliance wanted help so I joined and from the last chest I got Black Death Scorpion which I already sold.

[@Aragon-]

very nice, congrats! super rare, but possible

[@Nicomancer001]

Lol I also get rare drops whenever I help someone in game. That's how I got my Xuna and how I finnaly got the weapons from Moondancer.

[@kittywampusdrums4963]

The Redeemed Lockboxes can pull the comp pack with black death scorpion also

[@ruilouro]

If iam not wrong theres a companion from redeem citatel for 20k favors or so that in theory gives CA also.

[@GumB808]

I have a Paladin tank and sometimes I switch out to my healer but I’m trying decide which one I should use for both Black Death Scorpion or Spined Devil

[@allornothing6377]

Hey Aragon, so in ur tests of ca with swashbuckler u rightly say that her shield charge gives 50% uptime for ca, ive just looked at her again and saw that her slash with 2sec cooldown also gives ca, is she now giving 90% uptime?

[@Aragon-]

it is 50% uptime, regardless what she uses to trigger it. I looked at the exact % of my damage overall

[@allornothing6377]

@@Aragon- ok, I figured with 2 skills giving ca the uptime would have to be more, but I guess it could still come out at 50%, I can't get that info on ps so thought I'd see what u thought, thankyou

[@ansfridaeyowulfsdottir8095]

If not an Epic account in Zen Market, they could put a Legendary account in Reaper's Challenge. But they already said they wouldn't do this, nor will they release the other Raptors they had planned for Chult. {:o:O:}

[@spydr8521]

As of two hours after this was posted , there is only 3 panthers on AH and they start at 149000 ad

[@Aragon-]

Yikes

[@jamiefors5062]

Do you know if they changed the companion option in the Menzo choice pack from the Precipice of War ? I claimed the Minsc comp which says account wide but I cannot claim it on any other toon !! its not there, did they do a sneaky one ? lol ty

[@ansfridaeyowulfsdottir8095]

Did you check with Rewards Claim Agent? I have account-wide Minsc, but there were several boxes and in some he was not account-wide. {:o:O:}

[@Aragon-]

did you contact support?

[@jamiefors5062]

@@Aragon- Just submitted a ticket, 100% was an account wide Minsc, lets see what they say

[@cedriccano3290]

I remember that was one of the reasons i wanted to buy the premium pass, but took so long to decide that when i finally made up my mind i inspected the PP and there was no more Minsc, i don't remember if it was because that particular season was over or not, but yeah, they change it and i end up saving some money instead.

[@jamiefors5062]

@@cedriccano3290 I dunno man, I claimed it when I unlocked it and its been sitting in my bank until this time, lets see what their reply is

[@ashr704]

Dancing Blade and a few others grant CA (for the team) less than 50% uptime though

[@Aragon-]

These all grant for the team, with the uptime I have in the table

[@violencebf5183]

it's strange that Swashbuckler in your table 40260 and here according to the test 26,761 hmm

[@Aragon-]

Because as I said, this is with its own combat advantage. So half the time it deals a lot less damage because it is without combat advantage!

[@trollwell74]

I just play Warlock dps, no need for any combat advantage from companions

[@zkrings]

Oh man... Aragon, dude, with this information it wouldn't be a surprise if Cryptic checks it out and decides to nerf the CA from scorpion, making it competitive with other companions lol

[@Aragon-]

to be honest, I would not be surprised either

[@fredrauch418]

You know how much money they would get if they put the Scorpion in the zen market? Take my cash!!💰

[@kamilczyzkowski1213]

I think I have sword panther blink dog and this mage ^^

[@johnveazey2957]

They should just remove ca all together its dumb

[@Aragon-]

It's a D&D mechanic

[@johnveazey2957]

@@Aragon- so is life steal and they removed that from the game

[@abccba5125]

We demand buffs, not nerfs

[@mariankira3007]

Yo!!! To all the noobs you have 1% chance to get the black death scorpion on Vos and mdwp fyi cause Aragon dosent know these things 😂😂😂😂😂

[@ansfridaeyowulfsdottir8095]

Why does he not know this? {:o:O:}

[@Aragon-]

no way at all that it is 1%, more like 0.0001% and that is for any content.

[@zkrings]

I got mine from a Juma Bag

[@dearthditch]

A long time ago I got a bag that included BDS as an option. I gave it away. It wasn’t considered impressive at the time. Doh

[@mariankira3007]

When is the game shutting down already? Are they still making 💰💰💰💰💰

[@Deus_Tempest]

Was going to comment the same thing I wasted a lot of time on this game now it’s garbage, there’s no fun in this game now it’s dead
