[@rodgers731]

Don’t forget to add , in a group of 3-4 might dps the buffs stack so instead of getting the 10% and 8% buff you’re getting 30-40%, and 24-32% buff. Tested it myself today. Lemme get that shout out in the next vid going further into the depth of WOP 😂

[@SAUCEMANE]

So its multiplicative depending on how many dps are in the group?

[@rodgers731]

@@SAUCEMANE yes!

On my Mental toon , on role or dps, I run my super charges in my "Invisibility" loadouts. And I would clip "Neo venom" and "Mass Hysteria" for fun. NOW I have the chance for more fun, Lol, can't wait to see how "Word of Power" works in the place of "Neo Venom". We Appreciate your Work, Chief!!!!!

[@kennysingh9544]

Thanks good video. Many players in my league was doing this, I now see why. Glad to see the numbers. Salam Namaste 🙏

[@blackrighteousnesstv9536]

Good Lookin Out, Chief!!!!!!

[@Hades2Eros]

Was wondering why you were on at 2:30 in the morning and now I know.

[@ObsidianChill]

I had been procrastinating this for a few days so just needed to get it done :D

[@Deepvisionwiki]

Bro really good to know that know and I will use it in between other supercharge coldowns on my invisibility tab. But you forgot a detail that can change the perspective on the batel field, that is that if you use world of power on your invisibility mode, it will imidiatly and automatically switch you back to you regular roll tab.. And with the neo-venom boost I can use it without losing invisibility and I can use whatever superpower I want next before going back to normal. For example using this combo: invisibility ->menace ->neo-venom boost->world of power or mass hysteria. That if you have full supercharge bar. World of power will be diferente combo losing the possibility of using all those habilities at the same time.

[@TheRayA247]

You think they’ll ever get around to maybe reducing Neo-Venoms cooldown? I feel like it’s been outdated and this just makes it stand out even more from the meta with EoG

[@Bobby-px3pp]

No it would make electric and rage op spamming 5000 supercharge

[@Shadow497]

The fact every power uses it it's perfectly fine. It they change it it'll be broken.

[@ObsidianChill]

they have stated they won't with Neo-Venom because of the added defense it gives you. They justify that (and it can be helpful) for having multiple effects to be 45s. Honestly WoP shouldn't be 12s either lol. All supercharges need a revamp

[@xz4409]

@@Bobby-px3pp rage is shit for dps might and prec on elite berserker isnt really useable

[@rockjm9876543210]

@@xz4409 Facts, berserk is only op in reg, but for serious players that mainly run elite it's not useful.

[@jakk9600]

You are right.. but alot of Dps's board chase and that's like them running tetra to buff the grp (They wont). And like you said there has to be a gooood amount of greens to ya kno.. I think more buff/battle trols would use this more cause as you know Dps's don't like buffin other Dps's.

[@lazybone590]

Goood point. I remember him saying he's selfish and wouldn't run tetra to help the group. So why use word of power to give them special if it's a chance if them out burning me. Atleast with NEO i can only use my own supercharge for me..😅

[@KianAmyas]

I'm curious about a Circuit Breaker vs Word of Power comparisson. For Electric Might Dps. Since this is themed I'm tempted to use, especially since CB, as strong as it is, visually is a bit underwhelming :P

[@patd2331]

Great vid as usual 🔥🔥

[@Deepvisionwiki]

Would like to see what people have to say about that if you had that info to your video. Thank you a lot

[@appo4842]

This will be nice having tanks spam it with eog and scrap and a hp spec especially fire tank, its around a 17% buff of the tanks HP and again it stacks, this leads to the buff trolls Tetra and Cog hitting some silly numbers.

[@Zualty]

Now I gotta be a might DPS...

[@fockafacebook4345]

Hold up so wouldn't this actually fall in the category of like tetra? If your giving buffs to other dps's I don't think I'll be using it...I understand your saying it's about the eog proc's but thats assuming people actually stand in your eog lol alot of times people run away when I proc eog soo in that case if i run wop and buff everyone else's crits then that's just a extra crit buff for them assuming they will move out of my eog range like always...I know it's not major but also the animation doesn't clip like neo does...but i can definitely see how this can be really strong tho

[@HiHi-yk1mv]

I also want to mention something some powers actually don’t need to use wop as if your running 3 supercharges in a build the cooldown that wop is giving really doesn’t matter. For example I’m celestial, I notice that neo-venom is still a strong buff even though it is 45 seconds you can still use another supercharge like cursed idol if you get your supercharge back and then my 3rd supercharge is speed drain because it’s cheap. I don’t use robot sidekick anymore it dies too quickly and not worth re-summoning in battle. My loadout only has 3 skills which counts as 6 abilities since I’m celestial so technically speaking combo powers like light and celestial only need 3 skills to really shine adding a 4th skill slows the build down

[@ObsidianChill]

there will definitely be exceptions to WoP, it isn't the end all/be all of supercharges but in the right setup, clearly has more advantages to Neo.

[@mauriciomartell2433]

It might end up coming on top, anyways; but the thing is WoP doesn't compete with Neo Venom alone and rather the artifacts Heart replaces as well. It looks like it changes the meta though,

[@garcgu9571]

Can’t wait for pug dps using wop to buff my neo biggun to 9 mil lol

[@Darth_Enward]

They are called Kevins

[@magusxxx]

If this can be used with precision it would be interesting if there's a synergy with OMAC Nanite Circuitry.

[@christiankufner3906]

Did'nt know that. Thank you 👍

[@KainEnigma]

Sounds interesting, but what about Circuit Breaker? I think it was even better than Neo Boost if I remember correctly.

[@Wolf.Vision]

It is, but only electric have that super charge, this video is a vision to all other powers, i think.

[@ObsidianChill]

Circuit Breaker is a 55% dmg increase for 15 seconds, and it is clippable as well. As electric CB>WoP

[@KainEnigma]

@@Wolf.Vision I know it has vision to all the powers. That's why I asked about Circuit Breaker in separate comment, as I am electric.

[@Kratos_DCUO]

U should do a video on for tanks or healers Metabolism Boost vs Pheromone Bloom for healing

[@troylawson1902]

With a buff troll with claw maxed at 200 your looking at some serious damage massive and devastating .

[@egozttb72]

Yeah and wop stacks in a group

[@richardoden9098]

Is Heart of Isis artifact still good or did it get nerfed?

[@Deaths_Sweet_Embrace]

Does anyone know which wiki shows how much crit chance and damage certain abilities provide like mass hysteria or Ice Elemental?

[@ObsidianChill]

Not sure if the wiki is that detailed on the supercharges dcuniverseonline.fandom.com/wiki/DC_Universe_Online_Wiki

[@dangerdave4626]

How well will WoP work with quantum?

[@ObsidianChill]

it can work with any setup as long as you have the eog regen in groups

[@dangerdave4626]

ok thanks

[@Michael-go4ix]

Worst of power with the crit art at 200 with fire power must be op

[@zicc616]

I would like to see if precision is better now that WoP got buffed versus if circuit breaker is still the one.

[@ObsidianChill]

It very well could be but Prec will have to be tested in content to determine if its better for Prec dps overall on aoe/st. I'm sure players will run it and I can ask them and add it to the comments here based on their results

[@yomommaninja8632]

Can u make a updated rage dps video? Or are ur old videos still good

[@pedrohigueras3719]

Help, I need to know what is the strongest power for dps pet, sorcery, or earth? Thank you.

[@BadFriend145]

So DC took away the Buff Crit Chance from the weapon buff and added it to WOP? Kinda lame, Crit buff was base game in power weapon buff ability before it got removed. Electric specifically gave the buff to members of the group Excuse me, I’m showing my age 😂

[@ObsidianChill]

that's why I always hugged the healer back in the days :D the crit buff went to the 3 closest players

[@Rudarrus]

Word of Power white socket mod work for Heart of Isis artifact Supercharge?

[@MrDVNNY]

Doesn’t the “!” in the Heart of Isis do the same thing as well? They do about the same amount of damage and have the same effects no?

This is huge

[@markburns8690]

What is your thoughts on Vacuum Bubble vs Word of Power?

[@ObsidianChill]

Vacuum bubble I wouldn’t use, low dmg and it’s a very tight cone for the dmg spread so you can easily miss hits

[@HiHi-yk1mv]

Thanks for the vid :)

[@kontests]

as a dps. why would your main focus be buffing other dps every 12s

[@ObsidianChill]

That is just a by product. You get a EoG proc every 12s, which are you buffing the other dps to make your EoG proc stronger. EoG procs are higher than any dmg a rotation will do. There’s a reason why gadgets dps run 4 supers on stealth

[@Jetlag2023]

Ima keep neo and let somebody else do word of power and give me a boost while my neo is on cool down lol 😂

[@stevenbakos]

Obsidian, would this be a good replacement for Munitions?

[@Geoforcee100]

i use it on my muni

[@jermainejones635]

Just a question... Would this be more beneficial if the troll run it? I say that because most content don't need a heal debuff, therefore they could be running claw, and 2 sc to buff group? Then the dps could stack more?

[@ObsidianChill]

no, WOP has different effects for each roll. If a controller uses it, just extra power return, no crits

[@LoudMusic781]

I'm curious to why this update to word of power? What made the devs say "hey we going to add a damage boost to wop".. Was it to give us more of different options on different types of damage?

[@ObsidianChill]

It is because the new artifact dev created the Heart of Isis artifact which meant he had to change WoP because it's based on that for the artifact to work.

[@LoudMusic781]

@@ObsidianChill ah okay. Thanks for the information.

[@DookyStupyd]

Word of Power vs. Circuit Breaker, I'm curious of the difference in damage for Electricity.

[@ObsidianChill]

CB is only a 3s more cooldown and is 55% damage boost and it clips. CB destroys WoP

[@DookyStupyd]

@@ObsidianChill Thanks for the update.

[@bryanafshar1082]

May I ask do you think this sc would be great for trolls because of the extra power and/or as well specially gadget and mental because of stealth?

no, your troll sc would not only provide power but give a shield as well

[@shadrachlagrimas958]

What about rage bezerk? Are these better?

[@hank2948]

wait, so Neo its NOT obsolete, because WoP would only be superior in raids and with eog healers/tanks... or if you are an eog+scrap user

[@ObsidianChill]

those types of groups and players would fall outside the "meta" anyways, so nothing is applicable to them

[@melsmith7145]

Which artifact setup puts out the most healing, strategist card, purple healing ray, and page of destiny or purple healing ray, page of destiny, and starheart?

[@ObsidianChill]

neither. Best healing setup is Transformation Card - Purple Healing Ray - Page of Destiny

[@melsmith7145]

@ObsidianChill what’s the best controller setup for power?

[@borisoldiernyc]

Does this still hold true for might dps... power word over neo venom?

[@ObsidianChill]

with the change to EOG spam you won't be able to use WoP as much so it is not as effective now

[@johnmartin7584]

What would be better, Berserk, or Word of Power?

[@ObsidianChill]

as long as you can be within range for berserk, you will use that 100000000000000% of the time

[@dinkydotzero]

Would word of power be better than Circuit Breaker for electric? CB is a pretty powerful SuperCharge

[@ObsidianChill]

CB is a 55% dmg increase with a 15s cooldown and clips vs neo being 40. You would still use CB as elec

[@daCheezus]

Did they change solar amplifiers empowered channeling to include all or is it still just for heat vision

[@ObsidianChill]

it includes anything the hand mod does. Sometimes it can be buggy depending on if something lunges you right as you cast it

[@daCheezus]

Cool. Thx. I know art bonus is coming soon and I wanna move my superman ally to attack on my ice main. I didn't wanna waste the xp from 160 to 200

[@Geoforcee100]

yup word of power with muni rotation is something else! does this stack if every other dps is using it?

[@fockafacebook4345]

As far as I know it actually does stack which is just insane!! Imagine 4dps use wop plus troll uses claw that's like pretty much 100% crit chance

Is it worth to use as a elec prec dps

[@noahfloah8568]

Would this be better than entomb sc for earth? Well I never really used nvb on earth either

[@ObsidianChill]

entomb is too good of a sc on aoe and st to give up for WoP, plus you can earn sc much easier with earth with the unstoppable clip

[@Erased-_]

Maybe they’ll buff venom by making its cooldown 35-30 sec instead of 45. Which in some cases would make it viable again .

[@ObsidianChill]

they've pushed back on that for years because of the extra defense neo gives. That's been the dev justification

[@batssups3361]

So you sayin WOP is better than neo-venom , but only if u use it with the heart of isis (for the buffs) ? The crit ability buffs 10% & 8% are just WOP or WOP + heart of isis artifact ?

[@ObsidianChill]

this doesn't have anything to do with Heart of Isis artifact. That changes WoP to the Shazam symbols. This change in this video is the permanent change to WoP as a regular supercharge

[@chrisdlc281]

Obs, for Rage might, which you prefer= Beserker or Neo Venom? And why?

[@ObsidianChill]

As long as you can melee Beserker is by the widest margin the most powerful SC in the game's history. Nothing comes close ever

I made some test on 5 targets. Still good, but not as high as it was. My tests showed me that I made more dps in 30 seconds with Cyborg as active ally and Shazams 1st passive, than using Shazam as active ally with Nubia's dps passive.
