The 24HR livestream will be ON 07/31 not 08/01 at 6AM PST! They changed the date!

[@draketurtle4169]

Worth noting the wave of light passive only increases by .1 when upgrading it, not .2 like the smith, so you can’t fire the full mag with the 45% crit chance as it’d need a 2s duration (which I have tested with mods and valby transcendent… it’s fixed at 45% from what I’ve seen on the info screen). However knowing most of our shots will have a 45% crit chance we can just skip building crit chance and can easily slot an elemental mod (maxed without a catalyst )while still having crits/weak point hits doing over a million damage (not including the elemental damage)

[@michelledombrowski1120]

I’ve been following your viessa builds I’m 5 cattys in now so slowly but surely getting there ! Thank you for these videos ❤

[@MxgicIQ]

@@michelledombrowski1120 thank you!

[@vinicin.782]

What are u thinking about the build? I dont know if i do this

[@gamerboy6787]

I see that -- or rather, I HEAR that -- you're playing with the Korean language turned on. This Korean dude approves. XD I'm still a newb, and I'm nowhere near gathering all the modules needed for some of these builds, but I've bookmarked some of your vids. Thank you for all your hard work.

[@JaxxedGaming]

Would you say the extra duration (Skill Extension/Rutile) (6.0s -> 8.2s) on Blizzard outweighs the flexibility (Group Boss + AOE Farming) of having perhaps (Dangerous Ambush/Xantic) or (MP Collector/Xantic)? Trying to figure out how you do your Mobbing build too.

[@undersizetictac6314]

amazing video, dropping pretty much 10s on your boss killing is huge gains, if you manage to do a video on transcendant mod farming but not the hard mode farm that would be interesting especially for earlier/mid game players i am sure

[@sneakycactus8224]

By time you reach hard mode you should be ready for hard mode stick to one character. Free catalysts and activator .

[@grimmjow0106]

Great build, I’m going to have to try this out. I did have one question about your equipment choice. Slayer obviously seems like the best one to go with especially to help with skills but when it says skill cost +15%… wouldn’t that be like a negative thing which is to say it’s telling you that your skills will cost more to use? I would assume if it said -15% that that would mean your skills would cost less. But if it is saying 15%, then that makes me think it’s indicating your skills will cost more mp to use. Right?

[@BoredAndBrowsing]

The skill power increase is worth it, though you can always use the 2 piece that gives like 6% with no increase in cost. Mana is easy to return back, out of combat mana is like 4 seconds to full and 10 seconds to be out of combat if you don't get hit or damage the enemy. Max mana also helps, so even with the skill cost, you'd be able to use blizzard like 6 to 8 times before actually needing to get mana recovered.

[@grimmjow0106]

@@BoredAndBrowsing ahhh…. Gotcha. Was curious what the diminishing return returns there could be potentially with your mana pool but sounds like it’s not too bad. Thanks for clarifying

[@kvng2886]

I am glad it can still be used for mobbing it took me so long to get cold blooded mod

[@verticalpigeon1836]

It’s a right pain ain’t it I’m still trying where is best place for it

[@kvng2886]

@@verticalpigeon1836 I got it from a reactor boss fight the ones where the mod shows up as a reward, best one there is a fire void fragment that you need resources from right next to the void reactor. Pretty much if you’re able farm the fire void fragment on hard then when ready switch to normal and spam the boss fight and repeat lol good luck with getting the mod. Also I don’t remember exactly the names of the map but it’s on the right side of Albion when you look at the world map.

[@mudari661]

Do you think its better to use a tech reactor for blizzard or fusion for the rest of her skills ? Idk if I should bother trying to get a good gold one with the current rotation.. I have a purple tech ice reactor with crit rate and frost dmg rn

[@TheRealdraudE]

Play a void intercept with halo music, just trust me on this one

[@bayorx7819]

I don’t have ultimate and still in normal should I reset viessa or wait until i have her as ultimate?

[@Nemshire]

Where is your v4 mobbing build? I was waiting on that and i havent seen you drop it.

[@MxgicIQ]

@@Nemshire can’t get cold snap to drop to save my life

[@Nemshire]

@MxgicIQ gotcha haha. I was going to make a mobbing build using absolute zero but I've killed frost walker 30 plus times with no drop still. While my friend got 4. Fml 🤣 love your boss build tho. I'm going to try it out but I need to get python. I've been rocking a devotion for bossing right now and feels lacking.

[@mq9724]

wonder if normal viessa can do the job with same build ?

[@MidnightAX]

What color blue is that? also nice vid. gonna check this build out for sure.

[@braydenlucas9717]

I'm curious, could I use something like Enduring Legacy instead of the Python?

[@Zom-bee]

If the bulk of your dps from this build is from skills wouldnt clairvoyance be a solid choice to pair the build with for the chill resistence reduction? I havent played around with it myself and don't know how useful resistence reduction is though

[@MxgicIQ]

@@Zom-bee working on it rn but python just so much extra DMG.

[@giancarloavila4444]

We need a cold watch snap build

[@legendarykiegamer2577]

When are they going to fix jaber he’s been bugged since release

[@johnsonmartin1310]

apparently not in the next patch. He was my fav during the betas, but they broke him into the ground. All these ppl saying he's good are coping

[@BoredAndBrowsing]

I'm actually doing just fine with him. I can solo pretty much all content, but he definitely requires more investment and prep time than some other classes. His 1 and 2 could be stackables and should allow a max of 2 summons each without the need of the transcendent mods to do so. I would say change the transcendent mods to turn the turrets into mobile turrets that follow you, allowing for run and gun play. The 2 definitely needs to be a HoT instead, it should apply a HoT when anyone enters and leaves, retaining like 10 seconds of healing. His 3 definitely needs more ammo and the enhancement effects need a buff in range, damage, and even should increase the defense by maybe 50%. His 4 is probably the only one that doesn't need to change, but the cooldown and mana cost could be reduced.

[@johnsonmartin1310]

@@BoredAndBrowsing after substantial investment into him, I'm sure he's an alright character. however, his scaling is currently broken. an example of this is how he physically does not work with any Skill Power+ mods, which also breaks half his passive (skill dmg if all turrets are present on the field). until they fix this he is kinda of just an "enemy agro" unit with negligible damage in my opinion. sure he is convenient when soloing void intercept, but there are other units that just nuke bosses which ultimately do not require agro distraction when they kill so fast. when the devs do fix his Skill Power scaling, he would be an absolute beast of a descendant.

[@vinicin.782]

[@VaultArchive72]

If -15% Skill cost is a decrease in MP cost, why do you say it's also a decrease in MP cost on the Slayer Aux power when it says "Skill Cost +15%" Isn't that an increase? Are the Mod and item descriptions incorrect? Also don't know how you have 18000+ def when mine is 1700. Does Spear and Shield make that much of a difference?

[@simply_marko]

Get def on your memory

[@PoppieXL]

They changed the date, it's going to be a day early for the update.

[@MxgicIQ]

@@PoppieXL word?

[@MxgicIQ]

@@PoppieXL bet thank you!

[@xJuliusCaesar]

Can this work with duo or trio bosses?

[@BoredAndBrowsing]

There's a mod that increases skill power by 24% if enemy is not targeting you, so it can definitely work in co-op.

[@caased]

but i think this is quite squishy for coop bossing too little HP

[@klumzyee]

anyone have a better way to farm cold blooded?

[@user-gn7py4ws3m]

X2

[@klumzyee]

@@user-gn7py4ws3m fortunately I have a bunny. But there's a quick farm for the material (one in fortress and the others the bunny cave) then to do the boss you summon on hard. It took about 2 hours. For Hypo I just combined module on a bunch of cerulean transcendents rather than getting a group for executioner. Took about 3 hours farming devourer for cold cohesion to destroy (with the cold-blooded build I can get lucky and kill devourer before the shield phase). My Viessa is also fully upgraded with a fully upgraded thunder smg.

[@gart6484]

really hate the game is falling into typical mmo plateau . most builds using the same guns and mods.

[@PraedythGaming]

Can I ask what the benefit of using the Python is over other SMGs. Doesn't its unique ability only really benefit toxic builds?

[@MxgicIQ]

@@PraedythGaming weak point DMG

[@PraedythGaming]

​@MxgicIQ gotcha I have one made myself, so I'll have to test it out.

[@Raydr62]

While python works exceptionally well for Valby, Gley, and Freyna because of its unique ability, its weakpoint damage has a giant modifier

[@terrellestephens8922]

It's not added RNG. It's pure RNG. I think gamers have an issue with understanding what it means for things to be random. If something is supposed to be randomly rolled, that's exactly what I want. But the minute you start limiting the pool and percentages of what can be rolled, How am I supposed to believe that it's actually random at all? Yeah it sucks to roll something like Toxic on a Frozen mod cause it's useless but I would much prefer the possibility of that than the idea of certain combinations being locked out by the devs.

[@ultrainstinctroshi7315]

Nexon has had to pay out two different class actions over their "rng". I would bet my house that it's just a guise to hide the fact they once again, are lying and manipulating the values

[@jackplisken4738]

do you not see the huge chunk of damage from skills or are you ignorant on purpose?

[@oscargm1979]

Just ignorant, without the purpose 😂

[@cinder8165]

Build is bad.. 0 skill power modifier is a HUGE yikes, also u have too much cd reduction you could remove nimble and throw on a tech mod for MULTIPLICATIVE damage increase to ur ult. If you reallLLY want that sliver of duration u could replace HP Amp with battle of stamina and u should practically have 0 cooldown on ur ult or very close to it but me personally, id prefer the survivability and stick with increased hp/HP amp (hp amp being slightly better). Also i dont understand how people can not run any of the grappling mods.. i like mid-air but the other ones are also pretty solid depending on what ud prefer.

[@Xaax102]

are you confused between the two? Modifier is the one that scales with low power, normal skill power scales with high power.

[@MedicalBillz]

Viessa's skill multipliers are high enough that skill power modifier isn't really needed. Rule of thumb to use: if the skill has over 300% skill power multiplier, like on Viessa and Esiemo for example, don't worry about skill power modifier, go for pure skill power. Enzo's turrets on the other hand, go for modifier.

[@cinder8165]

@@MedicalBillz if you go for builds under 100% skill power/modifier, its better to go modifier, if you go above that threshold skill power is better. But in any case u want at least both regardless if its little of the other because having 1400 x 0 or 1300 x 5.5 is a HUGE difference. Regardless, this guy wants to crit the fuck out of his build which is fine but he needs at least some modifier to help with the skill power.

[@cinder8165]

@@Xaax102 thats not how modifier works, modifier is multiplicative with skill power, base power on reactor, base damage on skills, specific skill power (chill, fusion, tech, etc).
