Heavy Hitting Beowulf | Ravenswatch Solo feat. Heavy Strikes

Heavy strikes is has always been a low tier choice so I thought it would be better if I made it faster #ravenswatch #nightmare #beowulf

[@PotionSmeller]

Breath of fire's cone attack at the end of your attack string gets its aoe buffed a fair bit by heavy strikes, which is pretty nice. The ignite portion seems to have a bugged interaction with explosive fire though, ignite applied by the fire breath doesn't trigger an explosion on enemy death even if you let it tick for a bit. Applying ignite by other means then extending it with breath of fire works fine.

[@positive4ce]

That's really cool to know that it buffs the AoE, and yeah if they fix that in the final release then it'll be a really cool explosive fire build

[@torpor8652]

Nice run to wake up to. Really cool to see actual attacks work. Those meaty swings really look good, and when they actually do dmg, that is so satisfying :D

[@positive4ce]

Yeah I would try this out, normally I don't like the low feel of playing beowulf but this was satisfying

[@PombaoDumau]

Just as i was going to sleep? Perfect timing, my dude. Ill rewatch it tomorrow, worry not.

[@robertthangluah5627]

Exactly the opposite for me. Just woke up a while ago lmao

[@positive4ce]

The audience peak view time is interesting to me, I post around 7pm-8pm PST and most of my viewers are watching 6am-12pm so I'm guessing most of them aren't from the US

[@torpor8652]

CET here, and from the comments I'd say there's quite a few other europeans here as well

[@kaspersrensens1717]

Just got my first win on nightmare in part due to your videos!❤

[@positive4ce]

That's awesome, congratulations! Hopefully it gets easier from here on out

[@HuntShowdownLab]

@23:39 wouldn't the re-rolls make more sense since you would have gotten 45 x 6 = 270 dream sharts in addition to the re-rolls because of your coins? Even if you would just blow all 6 rolls right ahead, I think you'd come out ahead. Am I mssing something?

[@positive4ce]

No you're correct with that, a bit of an oversight on my end, normally I'll see something like that and take it but I missed it in this run

[@HuntShowdownLab]

Do you know what the calculation is from ace of spades and the + damage stat? Is your attack damage Attack Damage X Damage multiplier x Ace of spades? or is it Attack Damage X (Ace of Spades + Damage Multiplier)?

[@positive4ce]

The latter of the two, all additional damage is going to be added to the base damage multiplier and that's why I normally like ogres blood over something like 20% more special damage if I'm not doing a special build, if it was multiplicative then I think the 20% damage buffs would start to get out of hand

[@Klookko]

Imagine if there was a magical item that just gave attack speed and you could stack it more and more.. Beowulf might become OP with that tho

[@positive4ce]

Yeah I wish they added a legendary or cursed one that also buffs your attack speed, might be balanced that way because you couldn't stack it

[@RyneroS]

Hey! What is the best starting talent? Personally, I think this is Q, after completion cooldown is insane (exaggeration but still). I also like explosion but never tested shield starting talents considering them the least favorite and powerful ones. Am I correct, though?

[@positive4ce]

Yeah draconic binds is the strongest in my opinion, the cooldown is a lot more important to me than every other starting talent. I like shield charge a bit because it can get you out of a lot of dangerous situations. Explosive fire it hit or miss for me, it's really good in the first chapter but seems to fall off a bit in the second/third chapters

[@Moving_like_Berny]

what would be your prefer build with beowulf, Because for me firery strick was the best build out there for him

[@positive4ce]

I'm in the same boat, firey slash with ring of dispel, multiple dashes, 5x eternal rose stacks, and attack damage is my favorite build to run with him, it lets you 1 - 2 shot most things in avalon

[@Iucas.oliveira]

What would you say is beowulf's best or most consistent build? I've been struggling to finish nightmare with him

[@positive4ce]

I've been the same way since the new update, I think he really struggles to stagger the final boss so you need to get a build that can help with that. I really like this type of attack build, firey slash is a great ability to help with damage and stagger. Sparkling shield is one of his best abilities to stagger the final boss, and I really like his power build. Double shock + eruption is probably his safest way to play against the final two bosses, I have another beowulf video called "Beowulf Power Hour" that demonstrates that build

[@sizzlebiscuits]

Wu-Kong attack build next?

[@positive4ce]

I have a few recorded videos that I need to get up but the next one I record can be Wukong attack

[@TaowKohn]

dragon flight and raging chain what situations is this skill suitable to use?

[@positive4ce]

Dragon flight is a lot worse until you get the level 10 upgrade but I like to take it when I have a really strong special or power build because it'll make them both buffed during your ultimate. On attack builds where I'm not as focused on power or special I'll take raging chain to deal with big groups or an elite

[@TaowKohn]

@@positive4ce I think special build raging chain It's better to use because When using special must get close to the enemy ,make raging chain easy to use and use Dragon flight close to the enemy It's hard to get hit too.

[@positive4ce]

@@TaowKohn Yeah I agree, I prefer raging chain in most situations because it's more consistent and reliable

[@Moving_like_Berny]

I notice you did not do the quest one the sec chapter, why is that?

[@positive4ce]

I think I was just running out of time, I want to make sure I got all the red chests in the end of the second chapter incase they had an Ace of Spades to buff my damage so I did those instead of the quest

[@nineblu]

new vid? lfg

[@positive4ce]

I'm going to try to get another one up tomorrow, been really busy with work recently
