All of this reminds me of horror movies showing someone trying to load a gun while the killer is patiently walking toward them.

[@Alex-jw3tr]

I really want to see someone doing all these swaps in a hard elite raid, it really reduces mobility. I can understand the swap of 1 artifact maybe max 2 but swapping out 3 or 4 while doing mechanics properly I'm sure you'll get caught mid swap

[@ObsidianChill]

Will depend on the raid, say like coue trigon, once trigon fires his ball out to the group you know you are safe from anything but the fire spawning etc and them the fire won’t kill you the couple seconds you are in inventory

[@DanielSanHBA]

Can confirm he does this in any raid. Its a bit of faith in your healers and a lot of knowing when its safe to do it.

[@iZargon7]

ALL HATE switches arts in his stream. Though you're right it's one at a time.

[@EmptyWell]

Quick tip if your tact swapping on the PC side. If you've switched arts once (right click), exit and open the menu again to switch back, you don't need to drag your cursor to the same slot again, hitting enter after the initial swap will automatically swap out the art on the bottom slot with the art sitting in the aforementioned slot.

[@EmptyWell]

That's assuming you're only switching between 2 arts, if you're working with more arts you can use the arrow keys to quick select the adjacent art to the previous used slot and hit enter / spacebar to switch.

[@showstopper22hunnid]

I think I found a decent electricity might melee loadout that focuses on Polarized the enemies. Repulse, Attract, Whirling Dervish, Shockwave, supercharge or robo sidekick, and Electrocute. Still testing but it flows well so far.

[@iZargon7]

I'm on ps4 opening that inventory gonna take like 5 yrs. LOL. I mostly heal so I can see how the supply drop could help. The finisher artifact could help my dps because I'm nature and in gorilla form I use impaling thorns. This is some next level kind of play. I got 1 art at 200 and it's EOG.

[@K_DC]

That PS inventory menu load time is no joke. 🤣 {insert ain't nobody got time for that}

[@iZargon7]

@@K_DC : Deadass. Not waiting on that load time.

[@TheLQGaming]

Imagine saying you want 4 artefact slots instead of this. Game's already broken enough

[@dashingpe7141]

is stupid this arts swap ... this make the 3 arts seleccion like nothing ..when u can use all of them at the same time.

[@playfulcloud6424]

I recommend If your gadget on console artifact swap is not ideal so much lag from stealth you can do it but it will be super slow not even close to pc art swap.

[@mikhael676]

Awesome, thanks

[@remembermeimages]

Now when you see people freeze in place, it's not because the game is lagging, it's cause they are trying to switch artifacts lol

[@Stizzfoshizz]

Yeah It is only a very small fraction of the player base who should be doing this stuff. But we are going to start seeing people doing this now and probably losing damage because they arent equipped for it lol

[@darkvoodoo8003]

did they change DKS now u need to wait for it to finish casting for the additional dmg on the orb since its extra 8 hits instead of extra dmg on it the rest is the same if im not mistaken asked a m8 about it and he said it wasnt that case b4

[@blackroseix5157]

Can tank artifact work for Dsp? Like mystic symbol of the seven

[@budlife8234]

So channeled power moves like for fire are gonna be op af with this..I feel like this will eventually be fixed lol..cause people will complain about it unfortunately..like they gonna make it as soon as you take of art it doesn't work at all anymore 🤔

[@Stizzfoshizz]

People need to keep in mind that it is only a small percentage of players who can, and do, this at this level. This isn't a "meta", or anything you need to be doing to be even semi successful in this game. It is cool there are people out there doing stuff like this, and it is interesting to see.

[@ObsidianChill]

Yea I wouldn't even recommend players go out and spend $400 just to do this :D I just had to answer the questions I had from my fire guide

[@lamarhuncho2777]

Obsidian posted this to rub it in my face 😓😞 and my PS4 problems

[@aflock7517]

I have a problem when I art swap I press a it doesn’t swap I have go up and down before swapping or wait a few secs

[@KG-1234]

I think need 2 get Four Artifact slot that Will be beter then you don't need to swap Arti

[@ihatezen]

Nah going to swap regardless

[@taldino4434]

What art would you swap out for DKS and PS l? Trans or strat? Or it doesn’t really matter bc it’s so quick?

[@mallwilliams8695]

They need to make an easier interface for swapping arts like a revolver

[@meremortals9960]

Would it better to tac swap scrap or eye on supercharges...

[@laelo9]

Whats that consumable u got equipped in yo soder slot? How do I get it?

[@supermagento]

I don’t have time for this; devs should have a fourth slot(PERIOD)

[@xynandaporrograntz8385]

Wish that I could like this more than once

[@Shadow497]

I say go to 2 slots. Itll force you to actually think about your arts. If you have to many slots you can literally just run everything. At least switching between arts takes skill

[@dumbnamemala]

@@Shadow497 good point

[@ariesrose5614]

can't really do this on ps4 with my connection, actually a loss

[@daniellink1826]

I got a 12 second Buff but need a few seconds to switch and miss damage during the switch i then do with the switch. So it makes no difference if i Buff by switching and pause or Continue damage the whole time

[@ObsidianChill]

If you switch on a channeled ability you don’t miss any damage though, any other time if you are a dps yea mid combat you’d lose dmg

[@chrisedwards5447]

Does Pied pipers flute even work now? If so could you re-do a video on it? I know it wasn't working for a long time.

[@ObsidianChill]

Took awhile for them to fix it but they did, doesn’t proc on any buff supercharges. If your powerset has a decent 5k or 10k it can still be a good artifact now

[@TheLQGaming]

RIP PS4 players and the inventory loading times

[@edwardnigma7483]

Great video but what is that hand style like its actually messing with me that I can't figure it out.

[@makaveli6562]

Are you keeping your nth metals for the period of double arts xp?

[@mallwilliams8695]

Kinda sounds like this is intended

[@ironbeast4247]

Switch gadget buddies could never do this 😢

[@Takemebacktotheplusgamingera]

Is the quislet worth getting 200? I heard it got buffed recently and was wondering if I should invest in one.

[@ObsidianChill]

Presently I would say no, ive used it at 200 and don't see a real benefit over other choices. Possibly after the supercharge revamp it may be more useful with its effects. But you can definitely wait on it

[@Takemebacktotheplusgamingera]

@@ObsidianChill tyvm!

[@mrcrabshoes7374]

Random question: Does having robot side kick or gadgets version of the pet thing, bring down your damage output? Feels like I hit harder without and was wondering if this was actually the case

[@ObsidianChill]

as long as you can afford the loadout slot for RSK it will be positive damage, unless you are in an instance where it constantly dies and you have to resummon etc

[@Dopedope19]

Nice video as always!

[@alexjender4048]

Hey bro, for that king scepter swap, does the henchman, pets and supply drop still refresh faster even after you swap it out ?

[@ObsidianChill]

correct you just have to swap it to get the cooldown reduction and the orbital assistance dmg

[@Shadow497]

Artifact swap online lol.

[@rockjm9876543210]

Not to mention those that have alot of money to afford all those arts will have a significant advantage.

[@Shadow497]

@@rockjm9876543210 that's true. You'd have to be a real try hard to do all this just to get more damage. The game isn't that serious. If you was in a dps comp maybe

[@dumbnamemala]

This gives me an idea What if there was an artifact or consumable that allows you to use the effects of an artifact for 15-30-45 etc Basically 3 and a half artifacts

[@alonoi9062]

What might powers would be best with trans, lernaeas amulet, and solar amp? All at 120

[@Shadow497]

It's not a power it's the LO that matters. 2 of those arts are basic dps arts the Amulet is really no different. As long as you have a LO that takes advantage of the arts you'll be fine. For example if you had EOG but never raid a supercharge that's not taking advantage of the art. Or solar amp and dont have heat vision in you LO.

Just open another artifact slot that’s to much

[@Stizzfoshizz]

Opening another slot wouldnt change anything. You think they would stop swapping? You don't need to do any of this. These are just sweaty players trying to shave 2 minutes off a raid. It is all to flex in a scoreboard. Everyone gets rewards from the same loot table in the end.

[@TheLQGaming]

If artefact swapping is a thing then raids are too easy period.

[@Stizzfoshizz]

This game been easy. This is just ultimate sweat. I used to defend the try hard mentality in this game, but this is ridiculous lol

yea only if I hadn't been talking about artifact swapping for the past year, and AV's guide has been on the forums and steam just as long. I'm glad Coded swapped the most basic of artifacts and now we have to worship the ground he walks on. LOL

@@ObsidianChill while I agree u have talked about swapping but to this scale and this effect no you haven’t….I.e no artifact swapping video of dps”n have been posted into codic posted his fire Fve run…. Thus u guys use a fire dps for your example… let’s see u use this tech with other powers before someone else post a tutorial.. Ile wait

@@TheKaoticivory I didn't want to talk about it, still don't, why would I want to show something not everyone can do in the game and you have to go out and spend $400+ dollars just for artifacts you'll use 6-7 times in a raid? Look at the date on the video March 2020 from AV's guide, just because no one saw his guide doesn't mean we are copying coded or versed. If anything its the other way around, Versed can try to prove they've been using it for 1 year + because both myself and AV have actual video proof. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3OTfnpjebyKqbc
